I am a licensed clinician with over 20years of social work experience across clinical and systems-based settings. I support adults navigating stress, burnout, anxiety, caregiving responsibilities, work-life challenges, and life transitions. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in real-world understanding of the emotional and systemic pressures many adults face today. I work especially well with caregivers, helping professionals, adults balancing multiple responsibilities, and individuals experiencing emotional exhaustion or overwhelm. I integrate supportive therapy, CBT, DBT-informed strategies, motivational interviewing, and strengths-based approaches to help clients build healthier coping patterns, emotional resilience, and greater balance. My strength is helping adults manage complex life stressors, caregiver burnout, emotional overwhelm, and work-family pressures in a practical and supportive way.”

Hello, I'm Sarah. I'm a licensed clinical social worker who works with adults virtually in Ohio, Indiana, and Kentucky. I strive to be easy to talk to, and I believe therapy should feel like a space where you can show up exactly as you are—without pressure, judgment, or needing to have everything figured out. My practice is collaborative, down-to-earth, and centered on what matters most to you. We’ll make room for whatever you’re carrying, whether it’s stress, relationship challenges, big life changes, old patterns that keep showing up, or simply the feeling that something needs to shift. I’ll listen closely, help you make sense of what’s going on, and support you in finding practical ways to move forward. I want our work to feel real and useful—not overly clinical or one-size-fits-all. Together, we’ll go at a pace that feels right for you, build on your strengths, and create space for more clarity, confidence, and self-trust.

I am a bilingual therapist offering therapy in English and Spanish. I work with individuals, couples, and clients across different stages of life, with a relational, systemic, and emotionally focused approach. I pay attention to the larger context around a person’s struggles, including relationships, family patterns, culture, history, thoughts, feelings, and meaning. My style is active, thoughtful, and collaborative. I am not a blank-screen therapist, but I am also not quick to push or challenge before understanding where someone is coming from. I ask a lot of questions because I see questions as part of the work itself. A good question can help a person hear their own thoughts differently, organize what has felt confusing, and begin to create movement where things have felt stuck. I also understand Hebrew, though I do not offer full Hebrew-language therapy. My background across languages and cultures helps me listen closely to context, nuance, and the parts of a person’s story that do not always fit into simple categories.

I’m M. Brandon Blue, MA, LPCC, NCC, and I work with clients who feel stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected, or uncertain about who they are becoming. My approach is warm, thoughtful, and honest. I help people slow down enough to understand the stories, beliefs, emotions, and relationship patterns that are shaping their lives. Many of my clients are navigating anxiety, depression, stress, grief, relational conflict, spiritual concerns, identity questions, or major life transitions. I do not believe therapy is only about reducing symptoms, although that matters. I also believe therapy is about helping people live with more clarity, agency, emotional honesty, and alignment. In our work together, we may explore what you have been carrying, what you have been avoiding, what matters most to you, and what kind of life you want to move toward. I bring a balance of compassion and directness, creating space for you to feel understood while also helping you notice patterns that may be keeping you stuck.

She will focus on a holistic approach by providing community based resources to ensure everyone’s basic needs are met during the therapeutic process.

My clients have laughed, cried, practiced new things, and worked very, very hard. The only thing I ask, as a therapist, is to have hope and do the work. Each client is a functioning part of a larger whole that wants to stay the same. I see no sense in blaming a person for situations they did not create; it's what each person does that counts.

You can love someone deeply and still recognize that the way you're being treated isn't okay. You can care about others while also learning to care for yourself. Together, let's figure out what's happening, understand why it's happening, challenge the patterns keeping you stuck, and identify what you can actually do differently. Hi there! My name is Dr. Jess Priode (pronounced "Pray-dee") and I believe every person's story deserves to be met with compassion, respect, and understanding. With nearly two decades of experience in the mental health field, I help individuals navigate relationship challenges, anxiety, stress, depression, grief, family conflict, boundaries, self-esteem, and life transitions. I welcome clients from diverse backgrounds and recognize that our identities, cultures, and environments can shape how we experience relationships, stress, and the world around us. I strive to approach each client with cultural humility, curiosity, and respect, rather than making assumptions about what your journey should look like. Life and relationships can be overwhelming. Maybe you're feeling anxious, emotionally drained, stuck in a relationship, struggling to set boundaries, or simply unsure of what comes next. Therapy can provide a space to slow down, gain clarity, understand the patterns keeping you stuck, and develop healthier ways of responding to yourself and the people around you. You deserve a space where your story matters and where you don't have to lose yourself to take care of everyone else. If you're ready to better understand yourself, strengthen your relationships, and feel more confident navigating life's challenges, I'd be honored to walk alongside you.

I am a compassionate and experienced Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC-S) with over 20 years of experience and dual credentials in mental health and substance abuse treatment in Ohio. I support adults navigating challenges like anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, relationship struggles, grief, and low motivation—helping clients feel safer, more grounded, and capable of change. My approach is collaborative and practical, offering both emotional support and evidence-based strategies to empower clients as they work toward meaningful, lasting growth. I was drawn to this work by my beloved family member, who lived her life with a mental illness. Watching her courage taught me early on that healing happens in relationships—when we feel seen, safe, and supported. Outside the office, you’ll find me experimenting in the kitchen, planning my next travel adventure, or getting some fresh air and exercise. These keep me grounded and curious—qualities I bring to our work.

Welcome! I'm so glad you're here and making this decision to try something new. Therapy can truly be a sacred space. It's a place that can absolutely change your life, if you allow your self the time and space to heal. My focus is to see you as uniquely you: the good, the bad, and the sometimes ugly. I believe we all have inherent value and worth, and I strive to see this in every single person, including you! We may have some changes we need to make and some behaviors we have to part ways with, but through this healing journey, I want you to know how valued and loved you are. To embrace life again like we were meant to. To forgive others and learn to let go. To change what you can and find peace with what you can't. I operate from a trauma-informed perspective - recognizing how the past has changed the way we see ourselves and those around us. I look at how early life experiences impact our relationships, attachments, emotions, motivation, and joy. I incorporate mindfulness to help with regulation and utilize psychoeducation to understand that what happened in the past can't be changed, but we have the ability to pursue healing and growth regardless. I am self-pay only for couples sessions ($150/session).

I am the co-owner and co-founder of Lydian Counseling & Consultation, LLC in the heart of the Short North Arts District in downtown Columbus, OH. Individuality is at the heart of how I work. I don’t believe there’s one right way to change your life, and I’m not here to hand you a roadmap and tell you to follow it. You’re the expert on your own life. My job is to ask the right questions, help you sort through what you actually want, and support you in building something that’s sustainable for you, not what worked for someone else, not what looks good on paper. And I mean that genuinely. You are not your diagnosis, your history, or anyone else’s idea of what change should look like. The things that make you who you are, your background, your values, your circumstances, the way you see the world, those aren’t obstacles to work around. They’re the starting point. Good therapy, in my opinion, should fit your life, not ask you to fit into it. Change is hard enough without feeling like you’re being managed. Here, you’re in the driver’s seat. I’m a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor based in central Ohio, specializing in mental health and addiction treatment. I also hold an active LPCC license in the state of CA. I hold a Bachelor’s in Social Work from The Ohio State University and a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Dayton. I also completed an Addiction Medicine fellowship at Kaiser Permanente in Daly City, CA, an experience that gave me a deep respect for just how individual the path to recovery really is. www.lydiancounseling.com

With over 30 years of experience in the mental health and addiction fields, I provide a seasoned, practical perspective for adults navigating complex trauma, sudden loss, and emotional dysregulation. My approachable style is designed to lower anxiety and remove the mystery from therapy. Moving beyond mere symptom management toward true integration, I utilize evidence-based tools like EMDR, IFS (Parts Work), and DBT to help you process difficult life transitions and build lasting resilience. Specialized First Responder & Public Safety Care: As an independently licensed LPCC with specialized training in First Responder Peer Support, I understand the unique organizational culture, rotating shift demands, and intense privacy concerns of law enforcement, fire, EMS, and emergency personnel. Rather than utilizing open-ended talk therapy, I offer a structured, neurobiologically grounded approach to treating cumulative occupational trauma, hyper-vigilance, and burnout. We work to safely manage and resolve the stress of the job without requiring you to endlessly over-verbalize old calls, maintaining absolute discretion and flexible scheduling tailored to public safety professionals.

I believe that mental health is just as important as physical health. In order to make changes in your life, you have to be willing to put in the effort. It is my goal to make my clients feel comfortable and safe because this is where you are going to get the most change and progress. Coming to counseling is a very personal step. One that you should feel hopeful about. Many clients say they are nervous about their first session. To combat those feelings, I assure you that I will listen, provide a space for you to process your feelings, explore your thoughts and behaviors and provide strategies and techniques to help reach your goals. With no judgement. I seek to provide culturally competent counseling to all individuals. I will be walking with you as you process life situations and how they have affected you. I have experience working with individuals, children, families, couples, and groups in a number of settings. I look forward to working with and meeting you!

Do you feel like you are haunted by the "Wicked Witches" or "Flying Monkeys" of life? Follow the Ellerbrock Road Counseling Services and I can help.

If life feels heavy right now, you don’t have to carry it alone. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, stress, self-doubt, burnout, relationship challenges, or simply feeling disconnected from yourself, therapy can be a place to finally exhale, feel understood, and begin moving forward with clarity and confidence. I believe healing starts with feeling safe, seen, and genuinely supported. As a compassionate and engaged therapist, I meet you exactly where you are, without judgment or pressure to “have it all together.” Together, we’ll explore the patterns, experiences, and emotions that may be keeping you stuck, while creating practical, meaningful change that helps you feel more grounded and empowered in your daily life. My approach is warm, supportive, and collaborative, but also honest and growth-oriented. I’ll gently challenge you when needed, helping you step beyond survival mode and into a deeper understanding of yourself, your strengths, and what you truly need to thrive. You don’t have to navigate this season of life on your own. Change is possible, and you deserve support that helps you feel more connected, confident, and aligned with who you are. When you’re ready, I’m here to walk alongside you every step of the way.

Greetings! I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) and have worked with offenders, anger management clients, couples, teens and adults struggling with ADHD, anxiety and depression. Through a strengths based approach, my clients learn more about themselves thus improving self-confidence, communication, mood and overall outlook on life. I love serving my teen and couples clients via the Gallup strengths test. This test helps individuals understand where their energy is highest and what they value most. It's not about "strengths", but values. I believe one of the best things we can do for ourselves is take the time to truly understand ourselves as this helps us learn to communicate effectively, be productive, overcome procrastination and more. This is one tool of many I enjoy using to help my clients.

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need. For example, your selected specialty, Family Conflict, is filtering therapists in Ohio that work with patients with similar concerns.

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
