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.
I am a seasoned therapist of 30 years, and I learn something new with each individual I connect with. My goal is to address the issues of life we all face with grace, compassion and a little humor. I might not know all the answers... but together we will develop strategies to make a better life.
I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 13 years of experience in behavioral health, including more than a decade as a psychiatric registered nurse. I earned my post-master’s certificate in Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing from the University of Cincinnati and hold a Master of Science in Nursing with a focus in Clinical Nurse Specialist and Nursing Education from the University of Detroit Mercy.
I have experience working with children, adolescents, and adults from diverse backgrounds in outpatient, residential, correctional, and community-based settings. My areas of focus include depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, mood disorders, PTSD, schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders.
I believe mental health care should be collaborative, respectful, and individualized. My goal is to create a comfortable, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, understand your treatment options, and feel empowered to take an active role in your mental health and overall well-being.
Back-to-school ADHD & adolescent anxiety visits — evening appointments available! If you've cycled through medications that didn't work, been put on prescriptions that never quite fit, or felt handed a pill for every symptom without anyone explaining why — you're not a difficult case. You're a patient who hasn't been fully heard yet.
I'm a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with additional certification in telebehavioral health, and I do things differently: I take the time to get the complete picture before making any decision. My career — from flight nursing to inpatient behavioral health — taught me to stay calm and thorough with the most complex cases. I treat mental and physical health together,
grounded in evidence-based care, and I make sure you understand your options — medications, nutrition, sleep, movement — so you can make real choices about your own care.

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.
