I believe clients can reach their highest potential through support and greater self-awareness. I earned my bachelor’s degree in psychology with a minor in sociology in 2015 and my master’s degree in counseling in 2018. Over the past 8 years, I have worked with a variety of clients in multiple levels of care. This has in included outpatient counseling for individuals with substance use and mental health disorders, group treatment for clients transitioning from psychiatric hospitalization, and supporting court-ordered clients with substance use and mental health concerns. Most recently, I worked at a group private practice specializing in treating trauma, anxiety, depression, substance use disorders, and perfectionism.
I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I work with teens (12+) and adults who want down-to-earth, practical help for worry, low mood, poor sleep, and low energy. People come to me when anxiety, panic, persistent sadness, or sleep problems that are starting to get in the way of daily life, work, school, or relationships — or when past treatments didn’t help enough or caused unwanted side effects. I treat anxiety (including panic and OCD), depression, bipolar mood instability, psychosis when medication management is needed, insomnia, and struggles with motivation and energy.
I approach to counseling and therapy is that we're all striving to connect with our whole or "essence" self that resides within us. I see myself as a facilitator of that change. I am a holistic and trauma-informed therapist with some twenty-five years' experience.
I enjoy working with people who are interested in returning to the truth of who they are. I value people. Intuition is often within my work with people. I am honored to walk with people in their orientation to healing and health in the ways important to them. Harmony in mind, body, and spirit.
A holistic trauma informed approach with a culturally grounded orientation to care is my offering. I love to incorporate breath work and somatic work in with talk therapy all while centering values.
I respect the courage of getting to this point. It’s reasonable that we all would benefit from support so I am happy to walk you home to you, the truth of you that deserves liberation, healing and health because your life has value and I’m so glad you’re here. You deserve it all.
Counseling for me is about companionship! Companions are with you through the good and the not-so-good. The most important thing in counseling is creating a relationship where people can feel and think how they want to about their experience within the relationship because whether we are stepping in the right or wrong direction we are ever growing and changing. Everyone perceives life through a different lens. Biological, physiological, and environmental variables influence those perspectives in different domains of people’s lives. All ages with: Anxiety, Depression, Addictions, Schizo and Mood Spectrum, Paraphallic, and Trauma.
Hi! I am a licensed professional clinical counselor in Ohio whose passion is watching people heal and grow into the humans they were put here to be. My formal education comes from Ohio University in Athens, OH, with a master's degree in education - clinical/mental health counseling. My life education comes from being a person in long-term recovery for 15 years. I look forward to accompanying you on your search for you.
I am a double board-certified family and psychiatric/mental health nurse practitioner. As a Family and Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, I believe that healing begins with understanding. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you can share your story without judgment and work toward meaningful, lasting change. I provide individualized, evidence-based care for adults facing depression, anxiety, PTSD, bipolar disorders, ADHD/ADD, and sleep disorders.
I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker in Columbus, Ohio. I feel passionately about helping people find relief and become more comfortable being authentic.
I specialize in wellness approaches using vitamins and minerals and traditional Western medicine options. I'm goal-oriented and want clients who like to develop a relationship with their provider. I like to make appointments about your goals and desires. I will meet everyone on their path, and we will work toward whatever makes you feel comfortable. I offer flexible scheduling with day, evening, and weekend appointments. My clients report that they love the flexibility and their growth.
Hi, I’m Zach. I’ve worked in the medical field for the past 17 years, with 15 of those years dedicated to mental health care.
I believe mental health care should feel like a partnership. I often describe my role as being your co-pilot—someone who is here to listen, understand what you’re experiencing, and help you navigate your mental health journey without judgment. My goal is to create a comfortable environment where you can be yourself, feel heard, and take an active role in your care.
I work with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, and a variety of other mental health concerns. I understand that treatment isn’t one-size-fits-all, so we’ll work together to find an approach that fits your individual needs and goals.
Whether you’ve received mental health treatment before or you’re considering it for the first time, I want you to feel comfortable taking that next step and know that you’ll have someone working alongside you.
