Therapists Beginning With A in Ohio
Whether it's stress, depression, anxiety, life transitions, relationship or family concerns, the emotional toll of an illness or a trauma, I have a strong record of helping my clients achieve their mental health goals. I am eager to support your efforts to move forward, address your challenges, and lead a fuller life. Sometimes we feel stuck in our lives. It takes courage to admit that everything we have tried to get ourselves unstuck has not worked. It also takes courage to contact a therapist for the first time, or if you have been in counseling before, trying it again.

I have a passion for helping individuals reclaim their freedom from addiction and their loved ones navigating the treacherous journey. Having lost my beloved son to overdose in 2021, I also have a passion for supporting people through their grief, overcoming mental anguish from anxiety and depression, transforming negative self-talk to self-love and compassion, healing relationship disharmony, and healing and moving beyond traumatic experiences. I gently guide clients to explore their beliefs, process emotions, increase clarity, communication, and coping skills, and have the courage and confidence to pursue their dreams and goals.

We specialize in coming alongside families to offer help and understanding when caring for children who struggle in the areas of emotional and behavioral regulation. Children have challenges for a variety of reasons, and behaviors are just what we see on the outside that lets us know what is happening on the inside for them. At Anchor & Arrow Therapy, we are committed to looking at the whole child (brain AND body), within the context of the family, and digging deep to find the root causes for the often overwhelming and confusing behaviors children exhibit.

I believe in human resilience and the power of connection. I approach clients with an objective perspective, considering how all parts of their lives could impact their current experience. I try my best to listen openly in an effort to hone in the primary concerns of clients. While I view clients' pasts as affecting who they are and their current perceptions, I tend to focus on helping to improve the present and future experiences of clients. It feels most empowering to help clients discover their own answers, so I prefer to ask questions rather than tell clients 'what to do.'

Do you feel worthless, not good enough and insecure? To everyone else you may appear happy & have yourself together. If they only knew how much strength it is taking for you to put a smile on your face each day. You look in the mirror & think you don’t deserve happiness, because all you are used to is disappointment & pain. You experience a sharp tightness in your chest & it feels like a ton of bricks weighing you down. Your mind seems cloudy due to your thoughts racing, screaming at you that you’re not good enough. You blame yourself for your past & feel you deserved being hurt. You don't feel beautiful and fear steps in your way.
