I am a licensed professional clinical counselor in Ohio with years of experience working with clients of all ages. I am trained in cognitive behavior therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, mindfulness, sensory approaches, and narrative therapy. I also teach radically open dialectical behavior therapy (RODBT) for overcontrolled clients. I enjoy helping individuals with depression, anxiety, eating disorders, relationship difficulties, ADHD, and OCD. My counseling philosophy is integrative, meaning I tailor my approach to each individual’s needs and preferences, as well as collaborative, meaning we will work together to pinpoint areas for growth and formulate a plan to improve. I emphasize skill-building, self-knowledge, and balance. It is my belief that each individual holds within them the tools they need to live a purposeful, rewarding life. It is my job to help facilitate the process of discovering these tools and help you to utilize them to effect lasting positive change. My practice hours are typically 6pm-8pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays, 4:15-7pm on Wednesdays, and some appointment availability on Saturdays and Sundays. I can generally respond to messages at least once per day. Please remember that BetterHelp is not appropriate if you are in crisis or in immediate need of support. In crisis situations, please call 911 or local emergency services. You can also call 1-800-273-TALK (8255) to talk to someone right away! I look forward to completing this journey with you. Let’s get started!
