About me

As a licensed therapist working in Ohio and Kentucky, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients address life's challenges with compassionate, personalized care. My therapeutic approach is deeply attuned to diverse experiences, with a strong commitment to creating a supportive environment for all people. I offer a non-judgmental space where clients can explore their unique stories, develop resilience, and cultivate meaningful strategies for overall well-being.

I made a major life change in 2013 deciding to move careers from business management to something heart-led after a particularly difficult time. This helped me learn that the best things in life can come out of our most challenging experiences. From this, I'm particularly passionate about working with individuals exploring self-love, empowerment, identity, and personal transformation. In addition to therapy focused on reducing the psychological impact of chronic illness and pain.

Drawing from evidence-based practices, I support clients through a wide range of experiences—from managing anxiety, depression, and addressing trauma, to managing stress, relationship challenges, and life purpose exploration. My goal is to empower you to build stronger self-awareness, understanding and create positive, sustainable change in your life.

Genevieve has been AMAZING! Not only is she an excellent listener, she has helped me through so much already and I cannot thank her enough! Her style and approach make it easy for me to share with her. I've never felt more supported by any other therapist!

In the short time I've interacted with Genevieve, she has been very personable and professional. She asks great questions and I feel comfortable opening up and being my authentic self. She is responsive and willing to be flexible around my schedule. Thank you, Genevieve!

It was pure magic being paired with Genevieve. She is such a positive influence in my life and helped me navigate difficult decisions throughout the time I met with her. The ease of talking to her made the experience of being in therapy so much more memorable and impactful.

I tend to try and deal with things on my own so when I finally got to the point where I decided I needed therapy, I was really lucky to find Genevieve. I was lucky in finding a therapist who understood a lot of the hobbies, gets on tangents with me, and manages to get me to talk about my problems as I usually try to brush them under the rug. I enjoy that we have similar personality traits, so that I have someone who relates while also being able to give professional ideas and tips on how to better myself. I feel more comfortable talking to her than I usually do with anyone else!
