Once a sleepy farm town, Obetz, Ohio is on the rise. In recent years, the game of professional rugby has become more popular in the US and one team, The Ohio Aviators, called Obetz home for a short period of time. Although the disbanding of the group was kept ‘hush-hush,’ Obetz continues to thrive.

Isn’t it so with our lives? Although we suffer loss, we continue to push on in pursuit of something better. This type of inner strength is important; it can breed resentfulness and other emotional problems if things are just ‘swept under the rug.’ If you need help dealing with life’s difficulties, reach out today to be connected with an Obetz area therapist.

Hey there! My name is Heath I appreciate your courage to seek out help. I have enjoyed working in the mental health field for 9 years now and I'm licensed in the State of Ohio. I have experience with children, adolescents, and adults from all backgrounds. I have experience working with an array of issues including depression, anxiety, anger control, and co-occurring disorders (mental health and substance use). I also have some experience working with trauma and grief and loss. My approach is very person centered, cognitive behavioral, and solution focused. I have a genuine personality, a nonjudgmental attitude, and a friendly demeanor. I believe the most important factor is the client-counselor relationship. It is within this relationship that a person can begin to heal, find hope, and be encouraged through the change process. If you are ready to receive help I am happy to be supportive and empower you through the process.
