About My Clients

I specialize in working with individuals facing PTSD, complex trauma, substance abuse challenges, and more. I have extensive experience treating Complex PTSD, particularly for individuals who have endured sexual, physical, or emotional abuse. With a warm, client-centered approach, I believe therapy should be tailored to you-your needs, goals and personal strengths.

My Background and Approach

I earned a Master of Social Work degree from Ohio State University College of Social Work in 2012. I did my 15-month clinical internship at Ohio State University Harding (Psychiatric) Liaison/Consult Unit treating patient throughout the Ohio State University Medical Center. My background includes working in Acute Crisis Inpatient Care, leading PTSD-focused group therapy, and coordinating with St. Luke’s Hospital for pain management treatment. I am a Certified EMDR Therapist through the EMDR International Association. Additionally, I am a Certified Cognitive Behavioral Therapist (CBT) and a Certified Dialectical Behavior Therapist through Nationwide Children’s Hospital. Before private practice, I served for 16 years as the Employee Assistance Program Coordinator for the Cincinnati Division of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), responding to critical incidents and supporting FBI personnel through high-risk situations.
