After the Storm Counseling LLC
The Full Story
About Us
At After the Storm, we believe healing begins with feeling seen, heard, and supported. We provide compassionate, professional mental health therapy in Columbus, Ohio, helping individuals, couples, and families navigate life’s challenges with confidence and care.
Our approach is rooted in client-centered, evidence-based therapy, designed to support those experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. Every person’s story is unique, which is why we tailor our counseling services to meet your specific needs, goals, and pace.
From an early age, I was deeply aware of the impact that mental health challenges can have on individuals and families. Growing up with a mother who struggled with serious mental health concerns shaped not only my perspective, but also my purpose. It became my calling to support others who are navigating the pain, confusion, and emotional weight that can come from their own struggles or from loving someone who is hurting.
The vision for After the Storm Counseling was further shaped by a profound personal experience. In 2015, I lost my home in a devastating storm here in Central Ohio. In the immediate aftermath, support came quickly—people were present, compassionate, and eager to help. But as time passed and the initial crisis faded, that support gradually disappeared, leaving behind a quieter, more isolating reality.
It was in that space—after the storm—that I came to understand how complex healing can be. This is often when clarity begins to emerge. Sometimes that clarity is difficult, bringing grief, uncertainty, or hard truths. But it can also open the door to growth, resilience, and renewal.
After the Storm Counseling was founded on the belief that no one should have to navigate that space alone. Our hope is to walk alongside you during those moments, helping you find clarity that leads not only to understanding, but to healing—and ultimately, to living a more grounded, meaningful, and fulfilling life.
