Counseling In Athens, Ohio | In-Person & Online | OH, WV, DC, DE, MD, FL, & VT

Step into the next season of life with a new sense of direction.

You’ve worked hard to create this life—now, you want to actually enjoy it.

But after all you’ve been through, it’s hard not to second-guess every decision you make (or don’t make). This constant overthinking and questioning yourself keeps you up at night, wondering if you could have or should have done something differently. You just want to be able to trust yourself to make good choices without having to go over every single negative consequence or outcome your brain can come up with.

On top of the stress and anxiety of being at a crossroads, you’re also dealing with…

I truly believe change is possible, no matter how stuck you might feel right now. 

You're not destined to just cope with what you're going through for the rest of your life. 

Hi, I’m drea.

I want to show you that it’s okay to trust your gut & do what makes you happy.

Therapy with me is a space where you can be completely yourself. I'm here to listen—to really hear what you've been through—and help you make sense of it. Whether you're dealing with issues in your relationships or are just stressed and overwhelmed right now, you don't have to carry it alone. Sometimes, it’s just nice to hear, “No, you're not crazy for feeling this way” and I assure you, you’re not.

After we’ve gotten to know each other,

We’ll take a deep dive into what’s currently happening in your life and begin exploring when it all started. Often, the way you're feeling in the present has deep roots in events from your past, and by processing those events and emotions, you can start to naturally feel lighter. I often use methods like EMDR and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) because they are evidence-based and help with processing tough memories or emotions, but we can decide together what approach feels right for you.

I’ll meet you where you're at with compassion and honesty, and we can work through whatever is going on together. I'm not going to sugarcoat things, though—I’ll challenge you when it's helpful, but always from a place of empathy. Sometimes, we need a little push to see things clearly or to break free from patterns that aren't serving us. I’m here to offer that strength when you need it. You’re not alone in this, and together, we can create new avenues toward a life that feels less stressful, more authentic, and better overall.
