I'm a licensed clinical social worker with a Doctor of Social Work degree and experience working with individuals across healthcare, community mental health, higher education, and private practice. My clinical interests include anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, life transitions, obesity medicine, bariatric behavioral health, and helping people navigate complex medical conditions.
Clients often describe me as approachable, genuine, and easy to talk to. I believe therapy works best when you feel comfortable enough to laugh, be honest, ask difficult questions, and even challenge me if something doesn't fit. I value authenticity over perfection and believe that meaningful change happens through a strong therapeutic relationship built on trust, respect, and a little humor along the way.
Hello! I am a licensed clinical social worker with experience working with birth to 18, young adults, families, and adults. I have a Master's in Human Development and a Master's in Social Work. I specialize in working with anxiety, depression, family needs, crisis management, PTSD, and pre & postpartum needs. I have been in the clinical field for 13 years.
You might look fine on the outside, keeping up with work, showing up for others, managing everything, while internally feeling exhausted, anxious, or like you've lost the thread of who you actually are. If that resonates, you're in the right place. I work with adults who are stuck in patterns they can't seem to shift: overthinking, people-pleasing, chronic stress, burnout.
If you've been carrying something heavy for a long time, whether that's past trauma, depression that won't lift, anxiety that's hard to shake, or a complicated family dynamic, you're not alone. I work with adolescents (13 and up) and adults navigating trauma, depression, anxiety, and the kinds of life experiences that don't fit into a tidy box. After 15 years running a community clinic, I've sat with just about every story a person can bring into a room. There's nothing you need to soften before walking through the door. Outside of session, I spend most of my time with my wife and 2 daughters.
I am an experienced therapist, licensed in Maryland, Ohio, Missouri, and Kansas. I will be your partner and tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. I have a master’s degree from the Mandel School of Applied Social Sciences at Case Western Reserve University. I have been described as supportive, direct, caring, and compassionate, with a good sense of humor. I like to focus on identifying your strengths and helping you maximize them.

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.
