With 20 years of experience, I have moved past clinical jargon to focus on what actually works: true empathy and genuine human connection. My practice is built on real-world experience, and I am dedicated to helping people navigate life with clarity and strength.
I specialize in working with adults dealing with trauma, relationship dynamics, substance use, anxiety, and depression. I also focus on women’s issues, professional burnout, navigating major life transitions, and the art of setting healthy boundaries. I provide a professional, evidence-based approach that remains focused on you as a person.
I believe therapy is a space to find inner peace through courage, curiosity, and compassion. The journey toward peace begins with the willingness to be vulnerable—an act that can feel both brave and frightening. Opening up to another person and turning inward to meet ourselves can stir fear and uncertainty, but it becomes gentler in a space free of judgment and shame. My goal is to create that space, where you can explore at your own pace and begin to reconnect with the parts of yourself that need care and understanding.
With 12+ years of experience supporting those impacted by trauma and other challenges , I use a body-centered, relational approach. I help clients slow down, tune into their bodies, and notice how the past shapes their present. Through curiosity, mindfulness, and compassion, I guide healing and deeper connection with self and others.
Carly is a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner committed to providing evidence-based practice and trauma-informed care. She started her career volunteering at a psychiatric hospital while studying psychology in undergrad. She then worked in short term residential care settings and moved to the inpatient psychiatric setting upon gaining her nurse license. She enjoys connecting with patients and meeting them wherever they are on their healing journey. She attended Ohio University and The Ohio State University.
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.
I am trained in EMDR to assist individuals to heal past trauma and grief. I offer ADHD testing and counseling for youth and adults. I treat individuals with depression and anxiety. I have been a licensed professional clinical therapist for over 8 years.
I'm a psychiatric nurse practitioner with a private practice in Ohio, and I've built my work around one simple idea: you deserve care that actually sees you as a person. I offer medication management, psychiatric evaluations, and some therapy, with both telehealth and in-person options so you can choose what works for your schedule and comfort. I take time at the start of every relationship to understand your full situation before we map out a plan. If you want a provider who is going to slow down and be present with you, I'd be glad to work together.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an ADHD Therapist in Columbus
Finding ADHD therapists in Columbus starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Therapy can help with executive function skills, focus, organization, emotional regulation, and related concerns like anxiety or depression. Some people look for an ADHD therapist for adults, while others are looking for support for a child or teen. A therapist may offer cognitive behavioral therapy for ADHD, skills-based support, or counseling focused on daily routines and coping strategies. If medication is part of your care plan, a psychiatrist can help with medication management.
Columbus has many mental health care options, which can make narrowing the search harder. You may want a therapist near your neighborhood, campus, or workplace, or you may prefer virtual appointments that fit your schedule. When comparing ADHD counseling in Columbus, Ohio, look at whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that work for you, and has experience with ADHD and common co-occurring concerns like anxiety or depression. Reading therapist bios can help you understand their approach, who they work with, and what a first session may involve.
Therapy in Columbus can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for ADHD therapists in Columbus who are accepting new patients, review detailed bios, confirm insurance details, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can compare in-person and virtual options, schedule a free phone consultation when available, and book directly when you find a therapist who matches your needs.
If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
