Therapist

To ensure absolute confidence in our partnership, you should know that I operate less like a traditional therapist and more like a psychological strategist. Built specifically for high-achievers accustomed to heavy loads, my approach does not rely on passive listening. Instead, I am highly active, engaged, and direct. I match your cognitive speed, treating your emotional well-being with the same urgency and strategic precision you apply to your most critical professional ventures.

Within our sessions, the usual hierarchies are stripped away to provide a rare ecosystem of utmost discretion and radical candor. Because I am entirely focused on the human being operating the machine, I will gently but firmly challenge your blind spots and call out self-sabotaging logic. You will never hear me hide behind clinical jargon; instead, I translate complex behavioral science into plain, actionable frameworks designed for a logical, analytical mind.

Ultimately, I view myself as a specialized asset in your corner, operating on the principle that insight without execution is just an expensive conversation. Our work prioritizes data and action, ensuring every concept is pressure-tested in the real world—whether in your boardroom, your marriage, or your internal life. My sole objective is to help you optimize your inner world so your outer success is sustainable, fulfilling, and integrated with the people you love.

Over nine years ago my life changed. I lost a son to suicide due to unaddressed mental health needs. A system that was overwhelmed failed him. I returned to school to help close that gap and want to work with others to start their journey towards mental wellness. As someone who has experienced depression and anxiety, I understand the challenges faced.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing evidence-based psychiatric care through secure telehealth services. I am licensed in Ohio and board certified by the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC), and I work with adolescents and adults seeking accessible, professional mental health care.

My approach is patient-centered and collaborative, emphasizing shared decision-making, careful assessment, and individualized treatment planning.

Telehealth allows me to provide consistent, high-quality care while reducing common barriers such as travel, long wait times, and scheduling challenges. I take time to listen, explain treatment options clearly, and ensure patients feel informed and supported throughout their care.

I am committed to creating a respectful, judgment-free environment where patients feel comfortable discussing their concerns and goals. Whether you are new to mental health treatment or continuing care, I focus on improving symptoms, supporting long-term stability, and enhancing overall quality of life.

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 Cleveland

Finding OCD therapists in Cleveland starts with looking for the right training, not just the right location. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is a common evidence-based approach for OCD, and not all therapists include it in their listed specialties. As you review options, look for experience with obsessive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, anxiety, intrusive thoughts, and related concerns. A therapist’s bio can help you see whether they mention ERP, cognitive behavioral therapy, or other approaches that match what you want to address.

Cleveland offers a broad range of mental health care options for a mid-size city, with in-person offices across different neighborhoods and virtual sessions that can make scheduling easier. If you are comparing OCD and anxiety centers, private practices, and individual therapists, pay close attention to how each therapist describes their OCD experience. A therapist who lists OCD as an area of focus may be different from one who names ERP training directly. You can also narrow your search by appointment availability, session format, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.

Therapy in Cleveland can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs, and it can also make it easier to stay with care over time. Headway helps you search for OCD therapists in Cleveland who are accepting new patients, compare bios, choose virtual or in-person care, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can review therapists, confirm coverage for your plan, and book directly when you’re ready.
