Do you feel like something is holding you back? Getting in your way? Many people run into barriers- barriers that keep them from achieving their goals, get in the way of their relationships or keep them from moving on. These barriers can look like anxiety, depression, trauma, communication patterns, etc. This is where I can help!
I have worked with crisis services and trauma survivors my whole career; and trauma can look different for everyone! I enjoy nothing more than helping clients identify the barriers that are holding them back, constructing a plan to break it down and take steps towards doing so. I have a Marriage and Family Therapist License in addition to my Clinical Counselor License, so couples are a passion of mine as well.

Life is hard- we all need a little help and support on the journey. I see myself as walking beside the people I work with. Some need to look into the past and process it, receive a different perspective on it. Some have a specific goal in mind like decreasing anxiety by learning new skills in a short period of time. Others need a listening ear, with some insights sprinkled in. Kids need to play. Adults at times benefit from clarity and analysis. What do you need? I believe the interpersonal connection between counselor and client can be healing in and of itself. People are ones that hurt us, we're also the ones that heal each other.

I am a licensed professional counselor with a master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, with experience working on a multitude of concerns including trauma, anxiety, depression, parenting, and couples counseling. I believe in creating a strong, trusting therapeutic environment where people feel comfortable, motivated, and not judged. I use solution-focused techniques to assist in reaching goals and CBT techniques to help with concerns such as negative thought patterns. Every person is different, and you will have your own individualized therapy and plan that is tailored to your needs. I really enjoy helping others explore their own strengths, and I understand that sometimes it can be hard to put things into perspective. Sometimes that outside, non-judgmental assistance is what someone needs to get back on track or on a better track.

Maybe you’re struggling with anxiety and trying to figure out how to cope with it or the depression is getting worse and you're having a hard time getting out of bed. Please remember, you are not alone. Since the pandemic started in 2020, we’re all working to find our new “normal,” whatever that may look like. I believe in treating the whole person and will gladly help guide you along this path. I am committed to seeing you succeed and live your best life!

If you are reading this right now, you are probably feeling alone or in crisis. Time does not heal all wounds; it just gives them space to sink into the subconscious, where they continue to impact your emotions and behavior. “What heals is going inward, loving yourself, accepting yourself, listening to your needs, addressing your attachments and emotional history and following your intuition" (Yung Pueblo). I aim to create an alliance with you to help you find your voice, tell your story, re-engage your strengths and cultivate new ways to stay mindful and grounded—no matter what life throws at you. I work with adults suffering from childhood trauma, sibling violence, emotional abuse, narcissistic parents, emotional neglect, depression, relationship issues, and PTSD.
I also work with clients that have experienced some kind of traumatic event(s) currently and/or in their past and are struggling with functioning in their daily lives because of the impacts of the event(s) on their mind, body, and relationships. I work with adults who are experiencing stress, emotional stuntness, strained relationships, the trans community, and poor self-esteem. These individuals want to stop their negative moods and experiences but feel powerless to change them.

Hey there! :) I'm a Licensed Independent Social Worker with Supervisory distinction (LISW-S) based in central Ohio. I received my MSW from The Ohio State University and have been practicing for a decade. I began my career working as a trauma specialist for children in Treatment Foster Care and adoptions in inner city Columbus as well as my second job working in Worthington, Ohio for a private agency helping children, young adults, and families create balance in their homes and in their lives. I quickly developed a love of helping parents manage feelings related to stressors of infertility, depression, anxiety, self-esteem, and parenting. My passion is helping women identify strengths, barriers, and struggles to achieve their full potential. Connecting with people from all walks of life has been a joy throughout my years in this field. I have experience in urban, suburban, and rural areas with my current practice and hometown based in the Appalachian foothills of Ohio. I'm an animal lover, lover of plants, and lover of humans.

Hey there! I'm Amanda McKinney, and my real passion is helping people like you on their journey to well-being. My journey started back in 2015 when I earned my Masters of Science in Social Administration from Case Western Reserve University. Ever since then, I've been lucky enough to work with a diverse range of individuals from all walks of life.
I'm a firm believer in tailoring our therapeutic journey to your unique needs. Your goals are at the center of our work, and I'm here to support your self-determined path to well-being. Your right to make choices about your own life is incredibly important to me, and I'm here to empower you every step of the way.
As a therapist, I'm committed to lifelong learning. Staying up-to-date with evidence-based practices is crucial for me because it means I can provide you with the best possible therapeutic support. Over the years, I've explored and practiced various methods, all to better serve clients with different experiences and challenges.
My go-to approach is Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). It's mindfulness-based and helps folks like you identify triggers in your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Then, together, we'll work on more effective ways for you to manage your responses to those triggers.
Outside of our therapy sessions I love traveling, playing tennis, getting lost in True Crime podcasts, and having a blast with card and board games. Most importantly, I cherish the time I spend with my beloved cat and dog—they're my little sources of comfort and joy.

I have always been fascinated by how people work. As a child I loved learning about how the body works. As I got older my focus shifted to how minds work and how people function in this world. My education centered around mental health how to help people with their problems. I have an MS in Life Span Development and an Med in Counselor Education, both from Purdue University and am now a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in Ohio.
I enjoy gardening, traveling and learning new things. I am an optimist. My general way of relating to people is one of listing intently enough to be able to see things from their point of view, and to show respect, warmth, and humor. I believe that establishing a strong, supportive relationship is of utmost importance in therapy. Respect and honesty are essential for effective therapy.

I go by Becky and have been working with children and families since 2004. I have provided many different kinds of case management and therapeutic services in my social work career.
I believe that wellness includes many factors of a person's life--mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual health. Some of those things in your life might be in balance while other areas are not. You probably already have the ability to manage many situation or challenges with a combination of existing strengths and learned skills; we can add to those together.
My enjoy using play therapy. Through play child, families, and (yes!) adults can work through many issues in their lives. The best part is all the hard work doesn't feel like work. We learn skills by playing throughout our entire lives beginning with playing peek-a-boo; on the grade school play ground; sports and backyard games; as well as board games and card games with friends.
If playing isn't for you, I also provide the traditional "talk therapy" that most people are familiar. I received a specialization in Military Social Work during my master’s program at USC and have a passion for working with those, both children and adults, who have experienced trauma. Trauma can show up in a lot of different ways and look like many things. In counseling, we can use a combination of CBT, solution focused, and problem-solving therapy, along with Motivational Interviewing, trauma therapies, and Play Therapy when appropriate. Your plan, developed in your words, will be a great road map for reaching your desired destination. I would be honored to walk with you along that path.
Seeking help reflects the courage and drive that you already have within you.

Hello, I am Mande.
I have 20 years of experience in the mental health field. I love working with individuals helping them to meet their best version of themselves and their life.
Do you ever feel alone, as if no one understands how challenging life can be? Does it feel like everyone else has it figured out? Is it confusing how they are managing life challenges?
I would love to have the opportunity to help connect and express yourself. I find it helpful to look at life outside of social media and look at the reality of life and its challenges. There are many skills that are helpful in regulating your nervous system, challenging negative beliefs and increasing self-care.
