Therapist

Virtual • Ohio


I’m a laid-back and easygoing person who genuinely enjoys helping others. In my free time, you’ll often find me reading a good book, trying a new coffee drink, or spending time with friends. I believe it’s so important to identify the things that bring you joy and meaning, and I’m passionate about helping others discover those things for themselves.

Becoming a therapist has been one of the most meaningful and impactful parts of my life. I value meeting people exactly where they are and walking alongside them in their healing journey. I’ve often been described as a great listener and someone who is open-minded and nonjudgmental—qualities I intentionally bring into every session.

My goal is to provide steady support, encouragement, and perspective as my clients navigate the complexities of life. It’s a privilege to be invited into someone’s story, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly.

As a licensed independent social worker, I believe prioritizing mental health is one key to happiness and peace. I’ve been practicing social work for over 15 years in the healthcare setting, but I recently have shifted my main focus to adult clients who are struggling with the stress of parenting while caring for aging parents. I also have palliative care experience for those who are struggling with making tough medical decisions, or whom may be dealing with grief or loss.

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 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.
