Danielle Farabaugh
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I provide compassionate, nonjudgmental support for individuals experiencing suicidal thoughts. These thoughts are more common than many realize and often signal deep emotional pain rather than a true wish to die. Together, we work to understand the underlying causes, build coping strategies, and create a sense of safety and hope. Through evidence-based therapy, I help clients reduce distress, strengthen resilience, and reconnect with meaning, support, and reasons to live.

Columbus is home to Ohio State University — one of the largest universities in the country — creating sustained demand for therapists specializing in academic pressure, young adult identity, and sports psychology. The city's position as Ohio's state capital and a growing tech and healthcare hub has accelerated demographic change, with therapists increasingly addressing burnout and adjustment among a fast-growing professional population. OhioHealth, Nationwide Children's Hospital, and the Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center provide major institutional mental health anchors for the region. Columbus also has one of the largest Somali communities in the United States, making culturally competent and multilingual therapists who specialize in refugee trauma and identity an important part of the local therapy landscape.
