Brenda Pinson, LPCC-S, Sidney

I am a licensed professional clinical counselor in the state of Ohio with over 15 years of experience dedicated to assisting individuals navigating through the complexities of life. My approach is tailored to individual needs by embracing your strengths and experience to assist in the therapeutic process. This is your journey, and I will work at your pace providing support as you uncover solutions and develop skills. I describe the process like driving a car - you are the driver, setting the speed and direction, and I am along to make direction suggestions using empathy, humor and support to help you get to your destination. And, yes, sometimes we have to "when possible, make a U-turn." 

I have extensive experience working with elders and adults. I have provided services in the community and in medical settings. I work with a range of issues including adjustment, anger management, anxiety, depression, grief, relaxation, stress management and life transitions. My work has included crisis intervention, anger management groups, and domestic violence offender groups for teens and adults. 

I strive to create an environment that is collaborative, welcoming and supportive to create a positive, empowering therapy experience that is unique to you.
