I have my own private practice in Dublin, Ohio.  My career in counseling began in the 1980s when I volunteered as a helpmate for a partial hospitalization program assisting with recreation therapy and art therapy.  Later, I graduated to a paid part-time recreation therapist position at a 30-day drug rehab for adolescents.

From those beginnings until now I have worked as a hospital psychiatric screener, an outpatient therapist at community mental health clinics and agencies, a social worker for Children and Families, and a Military and Family Life Counselor.

My favorite position is the one I have now, specializing in the treatment of adults and adolescents suffering adjustment disorders, depression, and anxiety.

I am deeply passionate about serving others who have been impacted by loss. It was not my academic or clinical training that drove me into this work, it was the painful loss of my son. Through my own healing journey, I developed a desire to help others move beyond the pain caused by loss.

I enjoy walking alongside others as they find healing through the Grief Recovery Method®. I am grateful for the opportunity to support people as a counselor who are grieving a variety of losses including death, divorce, break-up, infidelity, miscarriage, infertility, financial and job loss, addictions, moving, loss of health, physical injury, and loss of hopes, dreams, and expectations.

I also help people with anxiety, burnout, career counseling, depression, men's issues, relationship issues, phase of life problems, spiritual & religious problems, and substance use problems.

Offering a safe and inclusive space is my first priority, especially in a world where it can be challenging to find. 

My approach to therapy is based on individual needs and personal goals. My primary area of focus is anxiety, specific to panic and the physical symptoms that can cause one to feel detached and not in control. I also provide support related to sexuality and gender identity.

I specialize in working with those who struggle with anxiety, depression, and relationship challenges.  My passion is to empower individuals and couples to live life to the fullest. I provide a non-judgmental space for clients to work through difficult experiences and come out stronger.  I have experience working in a non-profit community mental health agency as well as private practice servings.  I have worked with a variety of people helping to address many different mental health needs.   I specialize in helping older teens, adults, and couples deal with anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, and relationship challenges.  I help clients learn coping skills, set healthy boundaries, and use problem-solving skills to help resolve conflict.  I earned a Masters degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Ashland Theological Seminary. It would be my privilege to walk with you on your transformational path of healing.
