Therapy is about discovering your power to create the experiences and relationships that you would like to have with yourself, others, and the world.

My Services

I offer practical, trauma-informed, and evidence-based strategies for overcoming trauma, depression, and anxiety.

  • Experience counseling in nature with walk-and-talk or hiking sessions in Akron, Ohio parks—blending movement, mindfulness, and healing outdoors. Read more about hiking sessions here.

  • Access secure, compassionate counseling from anywhere in Ohio. Online sessions make it easy to fit therapy into your life with the same supportive care.

  • Facing mental health challenges can be tough—but you don’t have to do it alone. This virtual, donation-based group brings together people with similar experiences and offers practical, evidence-based coping tools you can use right away. Join us to feel supported, empowered, and part of a community that truly gets it. Read more about this mindfulness skills group here.

  • You don’t have to stay stuck in the past. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy for trauma helps you to heal deeply, feel safe again, and move forward with confidence. Read more about EMDR here on my blog.
