"Not Your Typical Psychotherapist" Ready to face your problems head-on? If you're tired of sugar-coated therapy that doesn't get to the heart of the matter, I'm here to call it like it is. No fluff, no pretending. Just straight talk, deep dives, and real healing. I'll challenge you to do the work, to face the parts of you that are messy, broken, and in pain. But I'll be there every step of the way, with compassion, empathy, and a no-judgment zone. You'll have to show up for yourself—no one can do that for you—but I'll be right by your side, pushing you to be the best version of you, no matter how tough it gets. This isn't about easy answers. This is about transformation. And if you're ready to dive in, I'm ready to go there with you. Let's make it happen.

Life is hard. Life is unfair. Life is suffering. These statements likely echo what many are feeling. It is times like these that many of us lose sight of our purpose, our value and our intrinsic worth. Whether the reaction of prolonged stress and overwhelm, the realization that our life or the people we know are not always what or who we believed them to be, or the struggle to find meaning in routine or even the mundane, we all arrive at this place in different ways. The place where we no longer know what to do to move forward, but know that something must be done. The place where we feel the pressure to act, but the simultaneous fear that we might make it worse. The place where we feel isolated and misunderstood, even though we are standing shoulder to shoulder with countless others feeling the same way. Feel familiar? But what if we were able to take these moments and use them as the impetus for something deeper and more meaningful. What if through grappling with our suffering, we were somehow able to arrive to at a stronger, and more enduring understanding of ourselves and the life we are meant to live. That is what I believe I am here to help with. It can be expressed in any number of ways, but in my work I like to get to the core of a person's beliefs to assist them with reshaping their story. Lets not idle any longer in this place, but move through it to a more fulfilling life. I look forward to speaking with you more at your convenience!

I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker Therapist in the state of Ohio. I work with adults who are seeking help when feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or just “off” in life and they know something is wrong but can’t quite figure out what it is. Often, along with the general feeling of “off” come complaints such as: depression, anxiety, anger, relationship problems, self-esteem concerns, substance abuse and questions of purpose. I aim to help you identify where, and how, the sense of “off” you feel may have started by exploring your past experiences and the impact they had on you. We look at your childhood history to find difficulties or trauma that wounded you and may still be affecting your life today. We then take action to heal the wounds with techniques and exercises to help you gain a true self-awareness and self-trust that will lead to the “realness” and authenticity in your life that is currently missing. Through compassion, empathy, and respect for your unique journey, I offer you a safe and supportive space to explore your matters. My approach is patient, observant, inquiring, logical, gentle, non-directive, collaborative and always non-judgmental. We form a partnership that has the goal of uncovering the answers you are seeking so you arrive at genuine peace of mind. It’s a path to heal your wounds, mend your spirit and nurture the strength to build your life into one that energizes you, fulfills you and authentically expresses the best of who you are. I look forward to meeting you.
