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.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Toledo
Finding addiction therapists in Toledo starts with understanding what kind of support fits your needs. Addiction care can include support for alcohol use, drug use, gambling, compulsive behaviors, and co-occurring concerns like anxiety, depression, or trauma. As you compare therapists, look for training or listed specialties that match your goals, such as motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, harm reduction, or coordination with medication management when a prescriber is part of your care team.
Toledo has a focused mental health care market, so both local fit and scheduling may shape your search. Some people prefer in-person counseling in Toledo, Ohio, while others use virtual therapy to access more therapists with addiction experience across the state. Review each therapist’s profile before booking to see how they describe their approach, whether they are accepting new patients, what appointment times they offer, and whether they use a non-judgmental style that supports recovery as a process.
Therapy in Toledo 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 therapists who take your insurance, offer in-person or virtual appointments, and list their specialties clearly, so you can compare options, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or substance use and is in a crisis, immediately reach out to:
