Hello, I'm Terrance, a dedicated mental health therapist with a passion for helping individuals navigate the complexities of their emotional well-being. With over 10 years of experience in the field, I have had the privilege of assisting many individuals on their journey towards mental and emotional health. My approach is rooted in empathy, active listening, and evidence-based practices to provide a safe and supportive space for clients to explore their thoughts and feelings. I believe that every person possesses the keys and strength to conquer life's obstacles. As the therapist, my role is to help you unearth those gems inside you.
I provide in-person sessions in Columbus, Ohio and virtual sessions anywhere within the state of Ohio. Please not that insurance is accepted for individual sessions only.
If you are seeing couples counseling, this is only provided by self-pay. Please reach out to me at [email protected] to discuss rates and scheduling for couples counseling sessions.
As a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW-S), I work with adolescents and adults. My clinical focus is treating anxiety disorders, depression, mood disorders, adjustment disorders and personality disorders. My therapeutic approach is integrative and strength-based, incorporating Person-Centered, Solution Focused, Cognitive Behavioral and Psychotherapy. I have over 13 years of experience in crisis counseling and private practice, and I am committed to helping clients develop effective coping skills and move toward more meaningful, balanced lives.
Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here. I founded Full Circle Mental Health LLC on a simple belief: therapy should fit your life, not the other way around. Seeking support takes courage, and I’m here to provide a collaborative, non-judgmental space where you can truly be yourself.
While I work with a wide range of life challenges, I specialize in areas that can feel particularly heavy, complex, or isolating to navigate alone:
• Trauma & PTSD: If you are an adult who is tired of just getting by and you feel ready to go deeper than surface-level coping, we can work together to heal the root of your pain and help you reclaim your peace.
• Couples, Premarital & Blended Family Counseling: Whether you are dating, engaged, navigating the day-to-day friction of a long-term partnership, or working through the unique complexities of merging households and building a blended family, I help couples build strong foundations, improve communication, and deepen connection.
• Religious Deconstruction & Faith Transitions: If you are questioning, shifting away from, or leaving a belief system you built your life around, I offer a safe space to unpack the complex, often lonely emotions that come with rewriting your story.
As a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) in Ohio, I earned my degrees at Ohio Dominican University and Walden University. I know that every person's story is unique, which is why I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. My toolkit includes advanced, specialized training in the Gottman Method, Bowen Family Systems, Emotion-Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Trauma-Focused CBT.
No matter where you are on your journey, we will work together to find a path forward that feels authentic and manageable for you. Whenever you’re ready, reach out—I’d love to connect.
As a former firefighter, paramedic, and emergency planner, Matthew deeply understands the impact of trauma on those who served and protect. His mission is to help all individuals move beyond survival-toward healing, wholeness, and hope.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Columbus
Searching for couples therapists in Columbus starts with naming what you want to work on together. Couples therapy can support concerns like communication breakdowns, recurring conflict patterns, trust after infidelity, major life transitions, and parenting disagreements. Not all therapists have specific training in couples counseling, so look for licensed marriage and family therapists or therapists who list approaches like the Gottman Method or emotionally focused therapy. A therapist’s profile can also show how they structure sessions and what kinds of relationship concerns they commonly support.
Columbus has many options for couples counseling, which can make it harder to narrow the search to one therapist who works for both partners. Consider practical fit early, including appointment availability, virtual or in-person format, office location, and whether the therapist offers evening or weekend sessions. Some couples prefer an office that is easy to reach from neighborhoods like Short North, Clintonville, German Village, or downtown Columbus. Others may prefer virtual sessions when coordinating two schedules. Many therapists offer a brief phone consultation, which can help both partners ask questions and assess fit before booking.
Couples therapy in Columbus can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find couples therapists who are accepting new patients, review detailed profiles, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs after your insurance is verified. You can compare therapists by specialty, approach, availability, and session format, then book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
