Find a Therapist in Mingo Junction, OH

My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and trauma-informed. I believe you deserve a space where you can be honest about what you're experiencing, feel understood without judgment, and work through challenges at your own pace. I often work with adults who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, past experiences, or life changes. Sometimes, you may understand why you feel a certain way but still struggle to change the patterns that keep you feeling stuck. Together, we'll explore those patterns, build a better understanding of yourself, and identify what can help you move forward. I also incorporate EMDR to help clients process difficult experiences that may continue to affect their lives today. I tailor my approach to your individual needs because I believe therapy should be about you, not a one-size-fits-all treatment plan. My goal is to help you move beyond simply getting through each day and begin feeling more connected to yourself and the life you want to live. You don't have to have all the answers when you start. We'll figure things out together, one step at a time.

I am dedicated and hard working with over 25 years of experience in the mental health field serving children, young adults, and families. I specialize in treating trauma and am EMDR trained. I also treat anxiety, ADHD, ODD, and depression. By developing a strong therapeutic alliance, I am able to offer skill development and confidence building to support clients in processing events and decision making. Ideal clients will be open and honest in a supportive, non-judgmental setting to learn skills and increase happiness and hopefulness. I use a variety of treatment modalities that are client centered, including Cognitive Behavior Therapy, motivational interviewing, solution-focused, and structural family therapy to treat multiple mental health and behavioral issues. I have been trained in EMDR, Trauma Focused-CBT, Internal Family Systems, and Trauma Informed Care. I have worked in multiple settings to provide mental health and behavioral services to become uniquely skilled and perceptive in understanding clients' perspectives. I am flexible in my treatment approach based upon the individual client and am empathetic, caring, and understanding. My passion is helping people improve their lives.

I’m a Professional Counselor who takes a holistic approach to care and uses a variety of therapeutic interventions.

I have experience and a passion for working with clients through a faith-based lens, including Christian counseling, healing from spiritual trauma, or deconstruction. I also enjoy working with clients living with anxiety, depression, disordered eating, body image, self-esteem struggles, relationship or workplace difficulties, and those walking through grief. I have worked in various settings, from helping students better learn when addressing their emotional needs to providing family reunification services to people who have been formerly incarcerated.

If you're feeling "stuck" in some area of your life - perhaps a relationship, your career, or your own personal struggles with anxiety, depression, anger, or jealousy - then you may benefit from a more active, collaborative form of therapy. I am the co-owner of Integrity Psychological Services. We are a dynamic group psychology practice of 17 licensed and experienced practitioners that focuses on active problem resolution - we will not just nod our heads at you while you speak! Instead, we focus on actively providing you with the tools and techniques that help you to achieve your goals. We utilize the following research-based approaches in our practice: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure with Response Prevention (EXRP) for the treatment of panic disorders, phobias, and other anxiety, EMDR for the treatment of trauma & loss, and mindfulness techniques and the principles of positive psychology which are based on the "science of happiness."

I believe therapy is a collaborative process, and that you are the expert on your own life. My approach is person-centered and trauma-informed, with an emphasis on creating a safe, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard and supported. I strive to meet each person where they are and work alongside you at a pace that feels comfortable and meaningful. As a board-certified Art Therapist (ATR-BC), I also have the unique ability to incorporate creativity into therapy when it feels helpful or appealing to you. You do not need to consider yourself “artistic” or have any previous art experience—creative approaches can simply be another way to explore thoughts, emotions, and experiences when words don't always feel like enough. I have experience working with teens, young adults, and adults across a variety of settings, including residential treatment, substance use treatment, and crisis services. These experiences have allowed me to work with people navigating a wide range of challenges and life experiences. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, working through past experiences, navigating a transition, or simply hoping to better understand yourself, I would be honored to meet you where you are and support you along the way. You don't have to have everything figured out before reaching out. Therapy can be a place to begin. I offer both in-person sessions and telehealthvirtual options to best support your needs.

Welcome—I am so glad you're here! I specialize in helping individuals navigate anxiety and stress through evidence-based, compassionate counseling. I believe that healing begins with understanding, and I'm here to offer a space that is safe, supportive, and empowering. Anxiety can feel overwhelming and isolating, but you don't have to face it alone. Whether you are dealing with persistent worry, panic attacks, social anxiety, or generalized stress, my approach is rooted in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), a proven, structured method that helps you understand the connection between your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Together, we'll work to identify unhelpful thought patterns and build practical strategies that support your mental and emotional well-being. My goal is to help you feel more in control, more confident, and more connected to your life. Every person's story is unique, which means our work together will be tailored to your individual needs and goals. Whether you are just beginning your journey or seeking support after trying other paths, I'm here to walk alongside you with empathy, insight, and care. Let's take the next step toward clarity, calm, and lasting change.

You’re doing the best you can, and it still feels like something’s missing. You don’t know what that something is, but you know when it was taken from you. I know because I’ve been there, and I want to help you. Starting with a new counselor is extremely difficult. I always tell clients that counseling is like a pair of jeans. If they don’t fit right, it will be uncomfortable. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Ohio, I use audio- and video-based treatment to reduce the impact of adverse life experiences, and to help busy survivors let go of the past and thrive in the future. Confidential, on-time, dedicated, and empathetic. I return calls and emails the day of. I start treatment with a brief overview of what’s going on, and we collaborate on goals. The time for difficult questions will come as we work toward building a trusting relationship. Together, we will learn more about how your unique experiences are impacting your body and your life. Then we will learn skills to stabilize things. When you’re ready, we will do some deeper work to untangle the past for a clearer future. I specialize in supporting people who are dedicated to healing from things they don’t talk about. I use whole-body treatment interventions to get to the core of where trauma is stored.
