Teletherapy for Columbus, OH

I help experts get out of the hamster wheel. They overcome the self-sabotages of procrastination, overeating, overdrinking, and more. My clients want a clear result, but feel stuck on doing it themselves. They've tried all the regular tips and tricks. I help them achieve the result and cheer them along on each step.

Email Now! Open for New Clients! Often, we carry the weight of unnoticed traumas, especially within Black & Brown communities, where trauma has become normalized or downplayed. Throughout our lives, we may have encountered phrases like "just move on" or "you'll be fine." These sentiments are commonly expressed by family, colleagues, or even our own inner voices. While well-intentioned, our loved ones may not fully understand the tools needed for processing, coping, and potentially healing from these experiences.

Welcome! I work online with adults around anxiety, work stress, relationship concerns, self-esteem, and trauma. My specialization is in depth psychotherapy, which is focused on getting to the bottom of our emotional issues, like how our experiences influenced our personality, and delves into the unconscious to explore the roots of our desires and pain. While this can be done short-term and solution-focused, the people who are the best fit for this approach are looking for a long-term commitment to understand themselves and relate to their pain more skillfully. I do not promise quick-fixes, my focus is on deep and meaningful change.

It’s amazing how different life can look when we shift our focus. A fresh perspective and a change of perception can go a long way for old habits and patterns of thinking. Renewing our minds is transformative! Whether this a tough season for you or you feel like you’ve been in the wilderness all of your life, change can happen. Truth be told, counseling is hard work. Showing up for yourself is hard and confronting areas you need to change is hard. Staying the same is hard…to all of that, we do our best to "choose our hard"! You don't have to do this alone! Relationship concerns? Anxiety? Depression? Divorce, etc? All of the above?

How many times in life do you put off doing what you want or need? Sometimes your own fears might get in the way. Other times, you might fear what your friends, family or community will think or say.

If you are experiencing mood changes, feelings of sadness, isolation, fear or anger and want to find the source of these emotions, schedule an appointment today.

Life is full of tricky philosophical puzzles: figuring out our moral, political, and religious values; having friendships, marriages, or other relationships; choosing and pursuing a career; grappling with aging and death; and many more. While traditional methods of psychology are helpful for a wide range of issues, more and more people are finding that it makes sense to turn to a philosopher to help them make progress on challenges that are genuinely philosophical. My ideal client is someone from any walk of life who wants to work on the puzzles of living and become an author of the story of their own life.

My therapist taught me how to love myself—and by extension, my life partner, my kids, and everyone else! It is possible, no matter where you're starting from, to have less inner conflict, less outer conflict, and more love, peace, calm, and creativity in your life. And if you’re a woman with ADHD, I can help with that too. Your life doesn’t have to feel chaotic, and you don’t have to call yourself names (lazy, careless, stupid) to get things done. Whether I see you one-on-one or with an important other, I will meet you with compassion, hope, and acceptance. Because we all deserve not just to survive, but to thrive.
