Therapist

My approach to therapy is warm, culturally attuned, and practical. I believe that meaningful change happens when clients feel safe, understood, and supported while also gaining tools they can use in their daily lives.

As a multilingual therapist offering services in English, Farsi, and Turkish, I bring a culturally responsive lens to my work. I understand the complexities of navigating identity, family expectations, and cross-cultural experiences, and I strive to create a space where all parts of your story are respected.

I value collaboration and tailor each session to meet your individual needs. Whether you are working through anxiety, depression, trauma, or life transitions, we will move at a pace that feels right for you while still maintaining forward progress.

My goal is not only to help you feel better, but to help you build the skills and confidence to manage challenges independently and create lasting change.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Ohio

Searching for therapists in Ohio starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want support with. Across a state with large metro areas, smaller cities, and rural communities, available therapists and care options can vary by location. You may be looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, grief, relationship concerns, or life transitions. As you compare Ohio therapists, look for specialties, therapy styles, and experience listed in each bio, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or support for specific life stages.

Location and format also matter when choosing therapy in Ohio. If you live near Columbus, Cleveland, or Cincinnati, you may have a wider range of in-person options, while virtual appointments can expand your search across more licensed Ohio therapists. Consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether their schedule works with yours. Reading a therapist’s profile can also help you understand how they structure sessions, communicate, and approach care before you book.

The cost of Ohio therapy can vary, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who take your insurance, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and book directly when you’re ready. Nationally, Headway works with over 100 insurance plans, and you can confirm your coverage for your location and plan as you search, making it easier to find someone who matches your needs, accepts your insurance, and is ready to take new patients.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
