Obsessive-compulsive disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Beachwood, OH

Hello, I am Sarah, a licensed professional clinical counselor in Ohio. I received my M.A. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Akron, but I also have a M.A. from The Ohio State University in Comparative Studies, focusing on the body, trauma, and narrative. We are our stories, as well as how we re-create our stories!

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing evidence-based psychiatric care through secure telehealth services. I am licensed in Ohio and board certified by the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC), and I work with adolescents and adults seeking accessible, professional mental health care.

With over 20 years of healthcare experience, I specialize in psychiatric medication management and the treatment of anxiety, depression, ADHD (treatment with non-stimulant medication), bipolar disorder, OCD, PTSD, mood disorders and related conditions.

My approach is patient-centered and collaborative, emphasizing shared decision-making, careful assessment, and individualized treatment planning.

Telehealth allows me to provide consistent, high-quality care while reducing common barriers such as travel, long wait times, and scheduling challenges. I take time to listen, explain treatment options clearly, and ensure patients feel informed and supported throughout their care.

I am committed to creating a respectful, judgment-free environment where patients feel comfortable discussing their concerns and goals. Whether you are new to mental health treatment or continuing care, I focus on improving symptoms, supporting long-term stability, and enhancing overall quality of life.

Hello! I have been practicing mental health counseling for 15 years. I started my career in community mental health, working with people living with severe and persistent mental illness, dual diagnoses, trauma, and homelessness.

I attended The Cleveland Institute of Art for my BA in Fine Art, followed by Ursuline College for my MA in Art Therapy and Counseling.

I specialize in working with trauma, personality disorders, anxiety, depression, and chronic health conditions, among others.

Clients often describe me as flexible, laid back, and easy to talk to. I believe therapy should meet you where you are, not where you feel you “should” be. I know that finding a therapist and beginning the process can feel overwhelming, so my goal is to make getting started feel as comfortable, supportive, and approachable as possible. With over 15 years of experience in the mental health field, I bring a compassionate and grounded perspective to my work with clients. I earned my master’s degree in 2017 and have worked with a variety of individuals navigating life transitions, emotional challenges, stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, and personal growth. My primary clinical experience has focused on adolescents, young adults, and adults, and I strive to create a supportive space where each person feels understood, respected, and empowered in their healing process.

To ensure absolute confidence in our partnership, you should know that I operate less like a traditional therapist and more like a psychological strategist. Built specifically for high-achievers accustomed to heavy loads, my approach does not rely on passive listening. Instead, I am highly active, engaged, and direct. I match your cognitive speed, treating your emotional well-being with the same urgency and strategic precision you apply to your most critical professional ventures.

Within our sessions, the usual hierarchies are stripped away to provide a rare ecosystem of utmost discretion and radical candor. Because I am entirely focused on the human being operating the machine, I will gently but firmly challenge your blind spots and call out self-sabotaging logic. You will never hear me hide behind clinical jargon; instead, I translate complex behavioral science into plain, actionable frameworks designed for a logical, analytical mind.

Ultimately, I view myself as a specialized asset in your corner, operating on the principle that insight without execution is just an expensive conversation. Our work prioritizes data and action, ensuring every concept is pressure-tested in the real world—whether in your boardroom, your marriage, or your internal life. My sole objective is to help you optimize your inner world so your outer success is sustainable, fulfilling, and integrated with the people you love.
