Family therapy and counseling in Akron, OH

Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor

Licensed Independent Chemical Dependency Counselor

Certified Trauma Counselor

Certified Adult ADHD Counselor

Welcome, and come as you are. I believe meaningful change begins with understanding yourself on a deeper level. Many of the struggles we experience in adulthood, whether in relationships, self-worth, anxiety, trauma, communication, or life satisfaction, are shaped by patterns that developed long before we were aware of them. Often these patterns started as adaptations, ways of coping or relating that once helped us navigate our family or environment and made sense at the time. My role is to help you identify those patterns, understand why they exist, and create lasting change rather than simply managing symptoms.
