Therapists in Beachwood, OH

I am an experienced clinician with expertise in helping adolescents, young adults, and families. I work best with clients who appreciate adept clinical insight in managing the complexity of known problems, poorly understood problems, and developmental challenges. I will help you clarify issues, focus on relevant factors that facilitate good choices and enhance your emotional well-being. I am committed to providing skillful diagnosis, treatment planning, and execution of a plan that improves your functioning. By 'improved functioning', evidence of significant reduction in frequency and intensity of the problems you sought help for, a durable solution, and a brighter future.

Breathe, this is just a chapter, not your whole story. We all have things that we may struggle with from time to time, and it is important to find a professional that you can relate to when you need help. I enjoy helping people work through the difficulties of life, with a warm and non-judgmental attitude. My approach to therapy is laid-back and down to earth. Your sessions with me will very much be directed by you. What's hindering you? depression, stress, anxiety, anger, self esteem? Do these issues leave you feeling impaired? Just Know, how you deal with the valley can have a lasting effect well after the storm has passed.

Alice Walker said, "the most common way people give up their power is by thinking they don't have any." Have you given up your power? Depression and anxiety can make us believe that we don't have any power and that things are hopeless. If you struggle with your daily life, relationships, self-esteem, and adjustment to changes, therapy can be a wonderful tool to help aid in your growth and find your power. Black and brown women have a lot coming at them and it can often make you feel powerless, let's work together to work through those things that may be holding you down.

Do you feel like no one hears you? Have you been told that you are unable to be helped? Are you chronically suicidal or struggling with emotions? Do you feel like you don't fit in and are looking for a connection? Do you want to feel normal and find a connection?

Too often, people start therapy w/out really knowing how it's supposed to help them. Too often, therapists passively listen without providing the essential skills & insights to help them get better. This can lead to a lot of time and money being spent w/out seeing much improvement. That is why my practice has a transparent and teamwork driven approach. In the 1st 1-3 sessions we go over why you started therapy and then collaborate on a treatment plan that is customized to your specific goals. Over the course of treatment we review progress and make modifications accordingly.

In my 30 years of experience as a child and adult clinical psychologist, I have developed a diverse set of assessment and therapeutic skills, allowing me to provide optimal care to children, adults and families. I am a member of the Association of Family and Conciliation Courts (AFCC), and my specialties include helping families going through the difficulties of divorce, parent coordination, preserving a cooperative and collaborative environment to keep the children's best interests a priority, and conducting court-ordered custody evaluations. Attorneys and courts frequently request these services in order to help resolve child custody and parenting disputes.

As a mental health provider I assist children, adolescents, and adults experiencing mental health symptoms. I engage, assess, diagnose, and apply behavioral theories to develop an effective treatment plan. During psychotherapy we address their unique situation, such as personal problems involving mental health, ADHD, Anxiety, Depression, Suicidal Ideation, and/or Trauma, to reduce the symptoms of mental health.

You want a therapist who is passionate & loves people, who has multiple, not singular experiences, who believes in therapy enough to go themselves. I go as preventive medicine. Originally from NYC, have always had friends, associates, relationships with persons from every culture.  This has been extremely valuable in developing my clinical skills and ability to understand and help a wide variety of people from various backgrounds.  The next invaluable contribution to my clinical skills is my Mother, Elizabeth, who taught me, "Everyone I know knows something I don't."  This makes every single person of unique intrinsic value.

My ideal client is an individual who is open to working as a team and benefiting from a therapeutic relationship in which honesty, accountability, and empathy are paramount. While a client’s concerns are unique and personal, there is nothing they cannot overcome through effective therapeutic interventions and a highly-trained and relatable clinician.

Accepting new clients beginning in May/June 2024 I believe human connection, understanding and empathy are the best enablers of healing. Building trust and a strong bond are crucial to the healing relationship, and I strive to provide a judgement-free place when we meet. I hold space for my clients so they feel safe experiencing difficult emotions, and always meet them where they are in the moment. I work with teens and adults who are experiencing a range of symptoms, including depression, anxiety, PTSD/trauma, OCD, personality disorders, bipolar and more.

I am a licensed social worker who has worked in a variety of settings to empower and support vulnerable populations.
