I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I work with teens (12+) and adults who want down-to-earth, practical help for worry, low mood, poor sleep, and low energy. People come to me when anxiety, panic, persistent sadness, or sleep problems that are starting to get in the way of daily life, work, school, or relationships — or when past treatments didn’t help enough or caused unwanted side effects. I treat anxiety (including panic and OCD), depression, bipolar mood instability, psychosis when medication management is needed, insomnia, and struggles with motivation and energy.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Canton

Searching for therapists in Canton starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want support with. Therapists may focus on concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, stress, or life transitions. As you compare Canton therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy approaches, and population experience that match your needs. A therapist’s bio can also show whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.

In a smaller city like Canton, the number of nearby in-person therapists may vary by neighborhood, schedule, and specialty. Virtual therapy can expand your options across Ohio while still letting you choose someone licensed to provide care in the state. When narrowing your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand how each therapist describes their style, session structure, and areas of focus.

Therapy in Canton can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before you start care. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, view estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and book directly when you’re ready. This makes it easier to compare fit, coverage, and availability in one place.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
