Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in Weston, OH

Reaching out for therapy can feel intimidating — especially if you’re afraid of being judged, misunderstood, or unsure whether therapy will actually help. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, anxious, emotionally exhausted, stuck in unhealthy patterns, or like you’re barely holding things together on the outside, you’re not alone.

My approach is warm, direct, practical, and collaborative. I help clients not only process emotions, but also understand why certain patterns keep happening and how to create meaningful, lasting change. Together, we focus on building emotional awareness, healthier coping skills, nervous system regulation, and stronger relationships.

Many of my clients struggle with anxiety, perfectionism, emotional overwhelm, relationship stress, attachment wounds, self-esteem issues, or difficulty managing intense emotions. I work to create a space where clients feel safe, supported, understood, and empowered to move forward with greater clarity and confidence.

If any of this resonates with you, I’d be honored to support you in your healing process.

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.

Having the same fight on repeat is exhausting. You know the one, with the same lines, the same tone, and the same ending. Feeling alone in your own relationship is even harder. You're not broken, and you're not the first couple to get stuck.

My focus is couples. I help partners stop the cycle, rebuild trust after infidelity, and reconnect, even when anxiety, depression, ADD/ADHD, PTSD, grief, or substance use is part of the picture. I'm on both your sides.

For individual work, my focus is women. Opening up to a man takes trust, and I don't take that for granted. I grew up around women who needed a steady, respectful man in their corner, and I've carried that into my work. With me, you set the pace. You won't be rushed, talked over, or told how to feel. You'll be heard, taken seriously, and supported in ways that fit your life.

I'm a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) in Ohio with a Master's in Counseling from a program whose graduates passed the licensing exam at one of the nation's highest rates, plus a background in substance use counseling. My style is direct, warm, and real. Therapy with me doesn't have to feel clinical or intimidating. It just has to feel worth showing up for.
