Welcome in. I’m Autumn, and I would be honored to be a passenger on your journey. I’m here to hold the map, grab the snacks, and make the ride smoother.  I offer a warm, empathic, and genuine approach to help you succeed.

I received my Bachelor’s and Master’s of Social Work from the University of Toledo, with a focus on mental health. As a student, I helped lead and create the first Pride event at the university. I firmly believe in the teachings of Carl Rogers, who enshrined empathy, listening without judgment, and genuineness as the core of therapy. I am anti-racist and LGBTQIA+ affirming. I can offer a guiding light on your path to living with anxiety, depression, trauma, adjustment, grief/loss, LGBTQIA+ disparities, and difficulties with socialization. As a trans person looking for her place in the world, I hope you can find your place here too.

I follow an eclectic model, gathering parts of many different ideas and therapy methods. Some of them include person-centered therapy, mindfulness, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), narrative therapy, Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT), trauma-informed care, Strength-Based Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Acceptance and Commitment Theory (ACT).

I also have two cats, Maggie and Yui, who keep me on my toes. Be prepared for a possible surprise visit from them during virtual appointments!
