Corrie is hands down the greatest trauma therapist out here. I’ve worked with at least 10 other therapists in my life, and I have made more progress during my time with Corrie. She validated me, supports me, challenges me, and gives me a safe place to feel comfortable and calm.

- LPCC
I am an Ohio based mental health therapist with 11 years of professional work experience. I currently hold an LPCC-S license in the state of Ohio and have worked in a variety of mental health settings including school based, home based, community based, residential, and private practice and have specialized in treating survivors of human trafficking for the last 7 years. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, sexual based traumas, relationship issues, transitions into adulthood or parenting, personality disorders, codependency, self-harm and suicidal thoughts, and non-traditional relationship dynamics.
I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. I utilize a mixture of CBT and DBT skills primarily as well as client centered and solution focused techniques to help my clients achieve the goals that they set for themselves.
Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Corrie is wonderful
Corrie is amazing. She is a great listener, gives concrete feedback and advice, and makes me feel supported. I look forward to our sessions because I feel so much better after them.
Corrie helped me so much before we even had our first meeting. I used the chat feature to explain my situation and she asked such good, thought provoking questions that I was already feeling better before we even met in the video session.
Very easy to talk to. Great to work with!
Corrie is wonderful! I feel very lucky to have found her!
Excellent therapeutic approach and style. She is very encouraging, helpful, and I’m really starting to heal from my traumas, sexual assault, and my history of violent romantic relationships. Would highly recommend
I love corrie. She has taken the time to understand my needs and issues. She is extremely honest and literally points out things that I can do to make my life and mental health more successful. I love her brutal (but caring) honestly in pointing pit when I am making excuses for not doing what I know needs to be done to work through issues. This is by far the best thing I have done for myself. Corrie is hugely helpful.
She’s awesome
Corrie has been wonderful. I cannot begin to thank her enough for her insight and support!
Corrie has helped me navigate through some overwhelming situations. She’s taught me tools to normalize who I am at my core rather than society’s expectations and for that I am forever thankful.
Only had one session/ but my level of comfort is very high
She's relatable and sweet. ❤
She really takes time to hear ur thoughts and understand you. She doesn’t judge just really cares and definitely tries to nudge you in the right direction and doesn’t be a yes person and is hard on you when u need it.
Corrie is very personable. She points out important deep seated concerns and observations. She’s helping me work through some serious issues.
Corrie understands my issues, listens to me and helps me work on solutions for myself with her guidance. She’s fantastic
