Loretta Buckwalter

Loretta Buckwalter

Therapist

Virtual • Ohio


I'm Loretta — an LISW-S with more than a decade of experience sitting with people who are carrying real weight. Before clinical practice, I worked in juvenile justice with youth and families, which gave me a grounded, no-judgment understanding of how systems, stress, and circumstance shape the way people show up in their own lives. That perspective follows me into every session. I work with women, adolescents, adults, and older adults navigating some of life's harder chapters — anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, family strain, relationship challenges, and transitions that weren't planned for. I offer Telehealth sessions across Ohio, which means no commute, no waiting room — just focused, private time built around your schedule.

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.

Alexandra McGrath

Alexandra McGrath

Therapist

Virtual • Ohio


Welcome, and come as you are. I believe meaningful change begins with understanding yourself on a deeper level. Many of the struggles we experience in adulthood, whether in relationships, self-worth, anxiety, trauma, communication, or life satisfaction, are shaped by patterns that developed long before we were aware of them. Often these patterns started as adaptations, ways of coping or relating that once helped us navigate our family or environment and made sense at the time. My role is to help you identify those patterns, understand why they exist, and create lasting change rather than simply managing symptoms.
