I believe that in order to have a successful relationship and outcome with my clients that there needs to be mutual trust, understanding and good rapport. I use one of several therapeutic modalities, depending on what issue one is having in their life. The modalities may include, but are not limited to, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing Skills and learning new coping skills. My areas of expertise include mental health and substance abuse with 18 years of experience and I have worked my entire career in those fields. I believe in meeting people where they are and not forcing an agenda on to another person. I have experience working with adults 18+ and I feel that you will find my demeanor calming and non-judgmental.I am available mainly in the evening and on weekends and I hope to be able to assist you on your search for a more pleasant, happy future.
I am a clinical mental health and substance abuse, therapist, with licensures LPCC and LICDC, in the State of Ohio. I obtained my Bachelor's degree from Fisk University and my master's degree in clinical mental health counseling from Walden University. My primary work environments have included private practice/outpatient, school based, as well as residential/crisis inpatient treatment, to provide treatment for mental health [depression, trauma anxiety, anger management, grief and substance use disorders.
My path to becoming a counselor was shaped in part by my own life experiences. Navigating divorce, raising children in a divorced household, and working with a counselor myself helped me develop greater emotional awareness and better understand how our experiences can influence the way we think, feel, and respond to the world around us.
I have also learned to better understand my own experience with ADHD and how it has influenced different areas of my life. ADHD is part of my experience, but it does not define who I am. That journey has reinforced my belief that understanding ourselves including our experiences, strengths, challenges, and differences can help us grow without reducing who we are to a diagnosis or label.
These experiences contributed to my decision to become a counselor and helped shape my passion for supporting people navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, neurodivergence, relationships, and major life transitions.
If you’re looking for a space where you feel genuinely heard and never judged, you’ve found it. I work with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, stress, and life’s big transitions. Whatever brought you here, my goal is to help you build resilience, develop practical coping skills, and create meaningful change that actually lasts well beyond our sessions.
