Obsessive-compulsive disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Akron, OH

As a psychiatric nurse practitioner, I provide compassionate, supportive mental health care centered on medication management. To enhance your treatment, I integrate brief, supplemental supportive interventions and targeted coping strategies when clinically indicated. I am currently accepting new patients (ages 18–64) and have immediate openings with flexible scheduling for both online and in-person appointments.

As an Independent Clinical Social Worker, I believe prioritizing your mental health is the key to finding your joy. I have been in practice for 11 years focusing on individuals navigating the impact of anxiety, depression, PTSD/trauma, working with couples, and parent mentoring.

Spring is a time for renewal and what better time to focus on renewing yourself and your life! In my 16 years as a therapist, I've supported many clients to take a new look at their life and to move toward that renewal. While therapy might feel scary at first, my training and support will make it less so. I can teach you skills through therapies including DBT and EMDR that will allow you to manage symptoms of depression, anxiety, trauma and more. Your life doesn't have to feel out of control or difficult to manage. I'm here to help. Allow me to walk with you as we work together toward building the healthier life you want and deserve!

Tired of feeling overwhelmed, stressed out or anxious? Do you find yourself overthinking or worrying about any and everything? Do you experience a rapid heart beat, sweaty palms, dry mouth and shaking? Feeling on edge, irritable or tense? All these things keep you from enjoying your life. They hold you back in your career or in relationships or other areas of life. You want to feel at ease and less stressed out. You want to go after what you want without second guessing yourself.

I help client's develop life-changing habits that allow them to cope with any of life’s various obstacles that provokes anxiety. During therapy sessions we will work together to identify goals and map out a plan to reach those goals. You'll receive tools that you can start using today and the validation and care that you deserve.
