- LISW
As a licensed therapist in Ohio with nearly two decades of experience, I specialize in trauma-informed care with a primary focus on EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). I am deeply committed to helping individuals heal from past wounds, process difficult life experiences, and build emotional resilience. My approach is grounded in compassion, respect for each person’s unique story, and a strong understanding of how trauma impacts the mind, body, and relationships.
I work extensively with concerns such as trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and life transitions. I strive to create a supportive and structured therapeutic environment that honors personal values and integrates faith-based perspectives for those who desire spiritually aligned care. My goal is to help clients feel understood, empowered, and equipped with practical tools for growth and emotional well-being.
My professional background also includes supporting individuals with social anxiety, communication difficulties, identity and purpose exploration, and major life changes such as divorce, aging, and personal transformation. Through EMDR and other evidence-based approaches, I help clients strengthen self-awareness, develop healthier coping strategies, and create meaningful, lasting change.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
