Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 26 mi away • Columbus, OH


Hello, I'm Terrance, a dedicated mental health therapist with a passion for helping individuals navigate the complexities of their emotional well-being. With over 10 years of experience in the field, I have had the privilege of assisting many individuals on their journey towards mental and emotional health. My approach is rooted in empathy, active listening, and evidence-based practices to provide a safe and supportive space for clients to explore their thoughts and feelings. I believe that every person possesses the keys and strength to conquer life's obstacles. As the therapist, my role is to help you unearth those gems inside you.

I provide in-person sessions in Columbus, Ohio and virtual sessions anywhere within the state of Ohio. Please not that insurance is accepted for individual sessions only.

If you are seeing couples counseling, this is only provided by self-pay. Please reach out to me at [email protected] to discuss rates and scheduling for couples counseling sessions.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

I’m a dual Board-Certified Family and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 20 years of experience in healthcare. I believe healing happens when you feel truly seen, heard, and supported. My goal is to create a safe, compassionate space where you can openly share your story and begin your journey toward emotional balance and well-being.

I bring both medical and mental health expertise to my work, allowing me to understand how physical and emotional health are deeply connected. I strive to meet each person where they are — with empathy, respect, and collaboration — while helping them move toward lasting change and inner peace. Outside of mental healthcare, I enjoy working out, yoga classes and nature photography.

Happy patient looking away

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 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.
