​About:
I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in the state of Ohio. I have been working in the counseling profession since 2014 and in the mental health field since 2010. I feel that majority of my clients are quick to find that I am relaxed, calm and welcoming within the counseling experience. I am a liberal individual that is open to self-choice, one's interests, beliefs and values. My goal in counseling is to help you support you and help advocate for you. I focus on meeting my clients where they are at and collaborating on moving forward collectively. Together we can work on finding techniques, interventions and a counseling style that fits your needs in order to fulfill your life with value and meaning.

Clinical Experience:
I have worked with numerous populations (e.g., individual therapy for adolescents and adults, couples, families, emergency room crisis assessments, state psychiatric hospitals, eating disorder treatment and online/remote therapy etc.) and have a wide range of experience with different presenting problems. Working in so many settings, I have gained experience and learned tools that could be helpful to you and your family. Here's a sampling of the settings in which I have worked:

• North Central Mental Health Services
• Nationwide Children’s Hospital Emergency Room
• Columbus Springs Dublin
