Know that I look at the whole system, not just the thought loop. I'm a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor - Supervisor in Ohio, and I'm also trained as a yoga instructor and nutrition professional, so when we talk about anxiety, OCD patterns, or burnout, we're also talking about your sleep, your body, and what's actually sustainable for you. I work with adults and older adults, individuals and families, and I welcome LGBTQ+ clients and clients navigating racial-justice-related stress as your full self, not a case file.

"Mental health is not a destination, but a process. It’s about how you drive, not where you’re going." I'm an LPCC with 17 years of clinical experience, and I offer telehealth therapy to adults throughout Ohio. I specialize in anxiety, depression, ADHD, grief, men's mental health, PTSD, and life transitions — but most of the people I work with don't arrive with a clean diagnosis. They arrive feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or like they've been managing too much for too long.I work with adults and seniors who are done feeling like they have to figure everything out alone. My approach is direct and warm — I'm not going to sit in silence waiting for you to lead. We work together. I use DBT, ACT, and mindfulness-based techniques, but in practice that means building skills that actually fit your life, not homework from a textbook.I'm particularly well-suited to working with men who've been skeptical about therapy, adults navigating ADHD later in life, and anyone carrying grief they haven't had space to process. I offer a free 15-minute consultation before your first session so you can decide if we're a good fit.

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

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.
