Hi, I am Joe, a licensed mental health therapist. I believe that people are capable of change, which is why I do what I do. It's understandable if you come to therapy feeling low and unmotivated. This is normal. Your first step in coming here is a big deal and not an easy decision or task. That right there is motivation. I believe in a collaborative approach and meeting you where you are in your life. I am not an expert on you, but we can work together to understand what is getting in the way of your goals and make plans to address these areas. I am here to help you figure out what needs to change and to guide you through the process of improving your mental health and growing as a person. I am a caring, open, and non-judgmental person, who loves cats, music, reading, and video games. I enjoy spending time with my friends and family, especially around a bon fire.
I'm a psych NP. I have worked in general psychiatry and addiction medicine. I utilize CBT and motivational interviewing to help inspire change.
Do you desire healing from past events, struggling in life, overwhelmed and not feeling like you're reaching your potential? Every person is unique, and I honor that by emphasizing your God-given strengths and providing you with tools for success in life. You are the expert on your life, but sometimes having a supportive partner in exploring your life can help. If you're close to the Westerville, New Albany, and Lewis Center areas, I'd love to meet you in person. I can also see you online. This comes in handy with Ohio winter weather.
I believe all people are capable of change and growth, with the right support and encouragement. I'll be there to empower you to overcome growth barriers and be there to rejoice in your successes. I'm honored to be that collaborative partner. I invite you to reach out, take that first step towards wholeness in your life.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Cincinnati, OH
Finding addiction therapists in Cincinnati starts with understanding the type of support that fits your needs. Addiction care can include support for alcohol use, substance use, compulsive behaviors, relapse patterns, and co-occurring concerns like anxiety, depression, or trauma. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience with addiction, substance use, motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, harm reduction, or coordination with medication-assisted care. Some people may also work with a prescriber as part of their care team.
Cincinnati offers a mix of local therapy options across neighborhoods, nearby suburbs, and virtual care. If local office access, commute time, or appointment timing affects your search, virtual appointments can help expand your options while still keeping care consistent. Recovery often includes changes over time, so it can help to look for a therapist who describes a non-judgmental approach and experience with harm reduction or relapse prevention. Review therapist bios to understand their communication style, session structure, availability, and whether they offer a free phone consultation before booking.
Therapy in Cincinnati can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated cost before you book. Headway helps you find addiction therapists in Cincinnati who are accepting new patients, match your preferences, and let you check insurance coverage for your plan on Headway. You can compare profiles, check availability, review estimated costs, and book directly when you’re ready.
