Life can be very difficult, at times, and situations develop when a person can feel "stuck" and have difficulty seeing a way out. I utilize an eclectic approach to counseling and aim to generate a comfortable environment which will eliminate that "under the microscope" feeling, some people tell me they fear when seeking counseling. I initiate counseling with person centered, solution oriented strategies, which will allow the client to begin taking steps toward relieving stress while generating hope for a more fulfilling future. I utilize, active and reflective listening, mirroring, Rational Emotive Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, as well as re-framing, and occasionally homework to help enable self motivation and the confidence to achieve personal life successes. I believe that people can learn the confidence to deal with many difficult situations, with encouragement, compassion, self understanding and the acquisition of new skills to approach problems which may arise in the future. I have a MA in counseling from the University of South Florida, with a focus on mental health. I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor Supervisor in the State of Ohio. I started my career in Florida nearly 27 years ago and have my primary experience in dealing with trauma, depression, anxiety, PTSD and bipolar disorder . I have extensive experience helping adult survivors of abuse as well as having presided over a group home for sexually abused girls. I am neither formal nor rigidly structured in my counseling approach. I believe in treating each person individually and it takes a bit of time to learn about each person's perceptions and history. I work toward being compassionate, understanding and patient in my efforts to help you discover solutions for problems you are experiencing. Though I have studied and respect many religious beliefs, and will do my very best to remain aligned with your personal beliefs, I do not provide religious counseling. Please note that I am not able to provide documentation for court or custody cases regarding counseling outcomes or participation. If you need this type of help, finding someone in your local area would be best. I am not available for help with porn addiction as this is a rather specialized segment in which I am not proficient. I look forward to working with you!

I’m a Licensed Independent Social Worker who believes therapy works best when it feels human — a mix of real talk, humor, skill‑building, and a space where you can breathe for a minute. I work with adults and young people (teens and older youth) navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, emotional overwhelm, identity challenges, and the messy in‑between stages of life.My style is warm, down‑to‑earth, and a little playful. I’m not the “nod silently and stare at you” type of therapist. I’ll celebrate your wins, help you make sense of your patterns, and give you practical tools you can actually use. I often integrate DBT skills, mindfulness, and grounding strategies — especially for clients who appreciate structure or need help staying regulated.Whether you’re an adult trying to keep it together or a young person figuring out who you are in a world that feels loud and complicated, I’m here to support you with compassion, clarity, and a touch of humor. You get to show up exactly as you are — no perfection required.

I try to provide my clients with assistance on determining what their primary goals are in therapy and what problems are standing in their way. My ideal client is someone who recognizes that they want to change something in their lives that is preventing them from moving forward. Ideally, they are self-motivated (not engaging in therapy because a family member or loved one is pressuring them to change). In addition, the client is willing to work on their problems outside of the therapy session and put into practice the skills they have learned. My approach combines both empathy and practicality. While I value good rapport with a client I also want to provide them with the tools they need to better their lives.

Hi! I'm Ash. I'm a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) in Ohio, and I believe therapy is most effective when you feel understood—not judged. I don't believe therapy is about "fixing" people. I believe every person already has strengths; sometimes life, trauma, stress, or difficult experiences simply make them harder to see. My role is to help you rediscover those strengths, better understand yourself, and build practical tools that support the life you want to create. Throughout my career in community mental health, I've had the privilege of working with adolescents, adults, and families navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, grief, relationship challenges, and the everyday stress of balancing life's many responsibilities. I've also worked alongside individuals experiencing housing instability, community violence, and other systemic barriers that can make healing feel even more difficult. One of the things I value most is meeting people exactly where they are. Therapy isn't something I do to you—it's something we build together. I believe my clients teach me just as much as I hope to teach them, and I approach every person with curiosity, respect, and the understanding that no two stories are the same. My style is warm, collaborative, trauma-informed, and person-centered. I strive to create a space where you can be honest about what's working, what isn't, and what you hope life could look like moving forward. Together, we'll explore patterns, strengthen coping skills, improve communication, establish healthy boundaries, and work toward meaningful, lasting change at a pace that feels right for you. Clients often describe me as compassionate, approachable, and genuine. I care deeply about helping people recognize their resilience, advocate for themselves, and discover that they are capable of more than they may believe in difficult moments. Whether you're navigating a major life transition, processing trauma, struggling with anxiety or depression, feeling stuck, or simply looking for someone to walk alongside you, I'd be honored to support you. I believe healing happens one conversation at a time—and I'd be grateful to be part of your journey.
