We are all wired to find equilibrium – the state of rest and balance with our body, mind, and spirit. But sometimes outside influences like relationships, work, money, illnesses, politics, and world issues keep that from happening. We take a few steps forward, only to get pushed back much further. If you find yourself struggling to cope and hold things together in the midst of stress, loss, and/or a radical change, Life is likely calling for you to grow. Engaging in therapy is like going on a journey with a trusted guide who sees, hears, teaches, and supports you wholeheartedly. I am a therapist who can lead you to new insights, challenge outdated beliefs and patterns, heal old wounds, and develop the skills to cope with life adversities – now and in the future.
Some specific journeys I’ve helped clients navigate are: facing the challenges of midlife, marital disconnection, identity crises, divorce recovery, grief and loss, finding work/life balance, and managing crippling anxiety. I use a very humanistic and compassionate approach and will provide you with a warm and nonjudgmental environment where you’ll feel safe to unburden your tension and replace it with new wisdom.
A little about me. I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in Ohio and Texas, with over 15 years' experience in all levels of mental health care, and trained in several treatment modalities (CBT, ACT, IFS, Rogerian, Motivational Interviewing, Trauma-Focused, and Experiential). I received my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology at James Madison University in Virginia, and my Master’s degree in Clinical Counseling at Xavier University here in Cincinnati. I’m passionate about spiritual connection through yoga and meditation, interior design, creative writing, beach vacations, and hanging out with my kids Angus and Julia.
