Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 7 mi away • Cincinnati, OH


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.

Therapist

  • I’m in your corner. I’m not here to judge, fix, or control. I’m here to understand, challenge when needed, and help you grow.
  • I will tell the truth. Kindly, clearly, and without fluff. Progress requires honesty.
  • I value structure and clarity. We will set goals. We will measure movement. We won’t just “vent and vibe.”
  • I integrate evidence-based approaches. I lean heavily on CBT and Motivational Interviewing, with EMDR techniques when appropriate. Therapy with me is practical and action-oriented.
  • I respect faith. If spirituality matters to you, we can thoughtfully integrate it. If not, we won’t force it.
  • I believe people are more resilient than they think. My job is to help you access what’s already there.
  • I hold both accountability and compassion. Growth happens in that tension.
  • I’m human. I don’t claim perfection. I show up present, prepared, and fully invested in your development.

Courtney Wilder-Whiting

Courtney Wilder-Whiting

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Ohio


I am a dual-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner with a clinical background that spans psychiatry, addiction medicine, primary care, detoxification and recovery services, chronic pain management, and complex medical care. That range of experience has shaped the way I practice today: mental health concerns are rarely viewed in isolation, because emotional well-being, physical health, sleep, stress, relationships, medications, past experiences, and everyday life often influence one another.

I provide individualized psychiatric care for adults experiencing ADHD, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders, trauma-related concerns, substance use disorders, sleep difficulties, mood changes, and other behavioral health concerns. Care may include comprehensive psychiatric evaluation, medication management, psychotherapy, or a combination of approaches based on your symptoms, history, preferences, and treatment goals.

My background includes years of caring for patients with overlapping psychiatric, medical, and substance-related conditions in outpatient, telehealth, detox, and residential treatment settings. I have experience managing psychotropic medications, providing medication-assisted treatment for substance use disorders, evaluating safety and psychiatric risk, supporting patients through withdrawal and recovery, and collaborating with therapists, physicians, case managers, and other members of the treatment team when coordinated care is needed.

Before focusing more extensively on behavioral health, I spent years in chronic pain care, where I evaluated complex medical histories, reviewed diagnostic testing, managed chronic conditions, and worked closely with specialists and primary care teams. That experience continues to inform my psychiatric practice.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands OCD

Headway helps you manage obsessive-compulsive disorder with expert-guided support — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Cincinnati, OH

Finding OCD therapists in Cincinnati starts with looking for the right training, not just the right specialty label. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is a common evidence-based approach for OCD, and not all therapists are trained in it. If you’re looking for support with intrusive thoughts, compulsions, avoidance, reassurance-seeking, or related anxiety, review each therapist’s listed specialties and approach. Bios that mention ERP, cognitive behavioral therapy, or OCD-focused experience can help you identify a stronger clinical fit.

Cincinnati has a steady network of therapists, with options across local offices and virtual appointments. For some people, an in-person therapist near home, work, or campus is the best fit. Others may find that virtual sessions expand access to therapists with more specific OCD experience. As you compare therapists in Cincinnati, OH, look beyond whether OCD appears in a profile. Check whether the therapist describes direct ERP training, current appointment availability, scheduling flexibility, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. A bio can also show how the therapist structures sessions and communicates about care.

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. Headway helps you find therapists who match your needs and are accepting new patients. You can enter your insurance details to confirm what coverage is available for your specific plan before booking. You can enter your insurance details to see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before booking, then browse OCD therapists in Cincinnati, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
