Our purpose

Helping people heal from the past and improve for the future is the passion that has driven me through two decades of service in behavioral health, prior to establishing Sycamore Wellness.  

I specialize in work with children & adolescents  ages 10-18 years old and adults. I also proudly serve as the clinical consultant and therapist of choice to the unique needs of federal and local law enforcement organizations and their families. I'm also a mental health consultant to organizations and institutions, providing education (webinars and in-person events) that provide an engaging and fun way to create healthy work places.

I am a proud graduate of The Ohio State University where I earned a Masters degree in Social Work and a Licensed Independent Social Worker with Supervisor designation in the State of Ohio. I'm an active member of the Society for Social Work and Research and the National Association of Social Workers, and I teach Master-level courses at The Ohio State University College of Social Work.  

When I'm not working, you can find me anywhere the community is having fun!  I believe in knowing your neighbor and looking out for each other.  Together with my husband, we enjoy spending lots of time with our four adult children and three grandchildren all who remind us to laugh and love hard.

For more information on Christy's professional experience, she can be found on LinkedIn.

Meet Christy's office companion, Ellie, a sweet girl (collie-lab mixed breed) who is always ready for love from others and once you pet her, she will want to return the favor in licks (kisses). We have dog treats in the office for anyone who wants to make life-long friends with her.  She helps bring comfort  to the office, while reminding us not to take ourselves too seriously as she barks for attention and belly rubs sometimes.

Bonnie is our newest member to the Sycamore Wellness team and is scheduling new clients starting in August 2023!  She works with children (8 years and older) and adolescents, so message us to get started because she will fill up quickly!

"I’m passionate about working with children and teens to navigate the challenges that come with depression, anxiety, self-esteem, relationship issues, grief/loss, divorce, life adjustments, and more. I’m here to offer support and enhance resiliency by promoting a sense of hope.

I provide a warm, empathetic, and accepting space, where my clients can tell their story and gain coping skills to live a happier life. I strive towards building and maintaining a trusting relationship so they feel heard and understood.

I am a licensed independent social worker with a Supervisor designation in the State of Ohio and have experience working with children and teens for 15 years. I have a certification in School Social Work through the Ohio Department of Education. During my time working within the school setting, my services included individual counseling, mental health educational groups, collaboration, consultation, and advocacy. 

I believe in using a strength-based approach, a trauma-informed lens, and a variety of evidence-based interventions, to foster personal growth, self-acceptance, and healing. I incorporate mental health education to promote awareness and a better understanding of self.

Raising my children is one of my proudest accomplishments. Spending time with my husband, family, and friends is where I find true joy. Mindfulness is a daily intention as I have found this to center my life during challenging times. I would be honored to walk alongside you whenever you are ready."

I believe that finding the right therapist means meeting with a professional who is truly interested in learning about who you are, what your major life challenges are, and what strengths you possess that can move you to create positive changes. Colleagues and clients describe me as compassionate, honest, trustworthy, and dedicated. 

I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker with Supervisor designation in the State of Ohio, member of the National Association of Social Workers, and a Medical Social Worker at The OSU Wexner Medical Center. Special areas of focus in my practice include grief and loss, crisis, health and wellness, anxiety, and depression. I’ve lived in 3 different countries, and am part of several multiracial families, so I view diversity as something to enhance and enrich our lives and perspectives. I am strong ally to the LGBTQ+ community, and I am passionate about advocating for vulnerable populations.

I received my Master of Social Work degree from The Ohio State University in 2007, and bring over 15 years of professional experience to the practice. Over 10 years in trauma and crisis settings such as hospice and emergency departments have allowed me to encounter the spectrum of human emotions, and I am honored to help people find their calm within the storm during the most stressful times of their lives. My own personal experiences, losses, traumas, and challenges contribute to my natural ability to connect with people of varying backgrounds. 

Self-care is one of the most important aspects to living well, and some of my favorite things to do include hiking, being in nature, spending time with my family and my 2 dogs, playing piano, traveling, exercising, and doing arts and crafts. 

There can exist a healthy balance of head and heart, and we all have the potential for dynamic growth if we are willing to take a deeper look inside ourselves. Through our therapeutic relationship, I would love to help you discover that you already have the answers you are seeking.
