About the Founder of RTColumbus:
It is an incredible honor to be a therapist. Therapy is a space where people choose to work through deeply painful experiences—often sharing parts of their lives they’ve never spoken before. I created this group practice to be a place where clients sit with a therapist who invites them to see themselves and their relationships through a trustworthy, compassionate lens.
Since I invite clients into growth, it must be a path I believe in and walk myself. For me, that path is Restoration Therapy. It’s a model that’s both accessible and profound—offering a daily practice of living in loving, trustworthy relationship with oneself and others. Restoration Therapy has been transformative in my own life, and it’s the paradigm I wholeheartedly invite others into. All of our therapists work from this model and are deeply committed to both personal and professional growth.
I have a passion for helping people reconnect with their inherent value. I’m able to see that value—even when someone is acting out in damaging ways or feels disconnected from who they wish they were. I love helping people repair, take authentic responsibility, and cultivate safety and care for themselves and those around them. Working with me means engaging in accountability and embracing opportunities for meaningful change. I offer a space where people can begin to see themselves rightly—and walk forward from that place with clarity and courage.

About Halsy:
As a Licensed Social Worker, I’ve dedicated my work to creating therapy spaces that are collaborative, grounding, and genuinely empowering. My approach is rooted in empathy and deep respect for your unique way of being in the world. In every session, I offer clear feedback that helps you understand yourself, provides opportunities to change the patterns that are hurting you, and repair the relationships that matter most.
Many people walk through life feeling like they don’t quite fit — like pieces of them are too much, too confusing, or too hard for others to understand. Some feel the weight of anxiety, relationship conflict, old wounds, or a nervous system that’s simply tired. Others feel stuck in cycles of overthinking, over-functioning, or feeling unseen in their closest relationships. I became a therapist because I wanted to be the person who meets you in those places — with warmth, clarity, and hope. A person who believes you deserve to show up as you are and build self-trust, healing, and connection that last.
On a personal note, I spent years in therapy gaining insight — but insight alone didn’t create the change. When I found Restoration Therapy, it all began to shift. It helped me understand my own anxiety, family patterns, and places where trust was broken. It helped me repair and reconnect in ways I didn’t think were possible.
Restoration Therapy makes sense. It offers language, clarity, and real, practical tools so you don’t stay stuck in anxiety, anger, over-functioning, or disconnection. It’s a model that empowers people to understand their pain and step into peace, safety, and healthier connection. I use it every day because I’ve experienced the difference it can make.
What I specialize in:
Couples and families at every stage
Relationship repair
Helping people heal from upsetting or traumatic experiences
Tools that stop rumination and anger and anxiety loops
Navigating and embracing neurodivergence (ADHD, autism) within the family system
While I work with a wide range of concerns, my deepest passion is helping individuals, couples, and families better understand and thrive with neurodivergence. I truly love supporting clients as they discover their strengths, reshape their stories, and find tools that actually work for how their brains and relationships operate. I earned both my Bachelor’s in Human Development and Family Science and my Master’s in Social Work with Mental Health focus from The Ohio State University.
I have advanced training in neurodevelopmental differences like ADHD and autism through my work and advanced education at OSU’s Nisonger Center. I also stay committed to providing culturally responsive, affirming care for BIPOC and LGBTQ+ clients and families — something I take seriously and continue to grow in through ongoing education and humility.
I’m trained in EMDR and remain active in the EMDR community in Columbus. I bring a trauma-informed lens to all my work and deeply value my training in Restoration Therapy Level 1, as well as my involvement with the RT community beyond Ohio.
If you’re looking for someone who sees you, affirms and honors your story—It would be a privilege to work with you.

About Laura:
It is a privilege to walk alongside people in the therapeutic process. My own experiences with anxiety led me to this work, so I know firsthand the courage it takes to step into therapy and it is important to me to honor that courage by offering a safe, compassionate space for clients where their vulnerability can be met with understanding and where hope and healing can begin to take root.
Restoration Therapy has been powerful in how I walk through my personal life and relationships and also in the way I understand and work with my clients. Helping others connect to their true worth and value and recognize their own empowerment and ability to create safety in their lives is deeply moving work and allows clients to create deeper and more meaningful connections with themselves and others.

About Megan:
Mental health can impact people regardless of ethnicity, gender, sexuality, or religion. I have always had the passion to work in this field because like many others, therapy has been a profound resource throughout my life for both myself and my family. I originally became a therapist because I saw a system that wasn't always filled with genuine or empathetic people, nor a world without constant judgement, so I wanted to dedicate my career to providing what I thought was necessary for healing; genuine honesty, compassion, no judgement, and a little sarcasm.
The therapeutic journey can be a time of healing, empowerment, and growth. These are all things that I try to help clients work toward in the therapy process. While therapy can be rewarding, it can also be challenging as you work through some difficult memories, experiences, or life transitions. One of my favorite parts of my job is being able to walk with you through these times by helping guide you toward resiliency and change, through hard work on your innermost self. Through the Restoration Therapy Model, we can help build trust in not only other people but within ourselves and be able to cultivate healthy relationships and a happier, healthier life.
Education and Training:
I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker (I.1901837-SUP). I completed my Bachelor's Degree at Buffalo State College in Psychology and my Graduate Degree at the University at Buffalo in Social Work.

I have also worked in community mental health as a mental health and substance abuse counselor and program supervisor of both adult and child mental health clinics. After moving to Ohio in 2019, I worked for a group practice as both a clinical therapist and clinical director. Throughout my career, I have helped clients from the ages of 9-85 years young. I am passionate about working with anyone struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, life transitions, perinatal/postpartum struggles, or just having a hard time in life. I am Restoration Therapy Level 1 Certified. I am also trained in EMDR, DBT, and CBT models.

About Gillian:
I’m drawn to therapy because I’ve seen and personally experienced how powerful it can be to have a safe place to sort through what feels confusing, heavy, or overwhelming. I believe people deserve space to understand themselves with honesty and compassion, and to learn new ways of relating to their own emotions and relationships. That belief is what guides how I show up with clients: present, grounded, and curious.
I personally believe in Restoration Therapy because it gives language to the patterns so many of us struggle with but can’t always name. It helps us understand the pain that shaped us, the identities we’ve carried because of it, and the reactive cycles that keep us stuck. What I appreciate most about this model is that it doesn’t stop at insight, it offers a way forward. It teaches us how to choose a healthier identity, interrupt old patterns, and move toward relationships and choices that reflect who we want to be.
I see therapy as a place where you can catch your breath, understand your patterns, and practice new ways of responding that actually feel good to you. My role is to offer guidance, structure, and steadiness while you do the work that matters to you.
