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.

Mary Tackett

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 10 mi away • Worthington, OH


You don’t have to have everything figured out before starting therapy. If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, stuck in old patterns, or unsure how to move forward, therapy can be a place to slow down, understand what’s happening beneath the surface, and begin creating meaningful change. I work with individuals and couples navigating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship struggles, major life transitions, and the effects of past experiences. I also have a special interest in helping women work through self-esteem, body image, emotional regulation, and relationship challenges. For couples, I help partners who feel disconnected, caught in recurring conflict, struggling to communicate, or trying to rebuild trust after infidelity.

Carl Anderson

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 17 mi away • Pataskala, OH


You don't have to be good at talking about feelings to start therapy.

I work with adults who may feel stressed, stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure what needs to change-but know they don't want to keep going the way they have been. I especially enjoy working with men navigating relationship difficulties, anxiety, depression, major life changes, or the pressure of trying to hold everything together.

I have 10 years of experience working in mental health. My style is warm, holistic and collaborative with plenty of humor along the way. Therapy with me is a place to be honest about what isn't working, understand yourself better, and start making changes that actually fit your life.
