Hi there:) My name is Lauren. I’ve been providing therapy for about 11 years now. I have experience with just about every population from school age to the elder years. I believe strongly in the mind/body connection and the utilization of a holistic, client centered approach to address both physical and mental health as they both work in conjunction to promote quality of life. One of my greatest passions is helping others learn the skills they need in order to evolve into the best version of themselves.

I am a licensed professional clinical counselor in the State of Ohio and a licensed professional counselor in the State of Georgia. I have a master's degree in community agency counseling from Cleveland State University and a master's degree in theological studies from Liberty University. I am currently working on my dissertation at National University. My research topic is focused on how female behavioral health leaders manage work-life balance and the impact of organizational culture, and support systems have on their well-being and career progression. I offer Christian/Pastoral counseling, individual counseling, personal and social counseling, as well as career counseling. My approach is collaborative and client-centered, creating a safe space for you to gain healing and growth through developing and implementing coping strategies. The following modalities are Eclectic based on client’s needs consisting of Christian/Pastoral counseling, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, insight-oriented, as well as others.

My name is Jeffrey, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Michigan, and a Licensed Social Worker and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in Ohio. I have also been an ordained Lutheran pastor since 1989. My professional career began as an Associate Pastor in a Lutheran church in northwest Ohio, where I focused on youth ministry, Christian Education, and pastoral counseling. I entered Social Work in 1995 when I began work as a Family Worker in a residential facility for hard to place juvenile offenders, and then worked in a few outpatient counseling agencies providing mental health and substance use disorder services. I have experience working with people of all ages on general mental health issues, such as managing depression and anxiety, and have specialized in the areas of PTSD recovery and domestic violence and sexual abuse victims and offenders. Throughout my counseling career, I have maintained activity in ministry. I was trained in Clinical Pastoral Counseling and also have had training as a Spiritual Director.
My counseling approach is generally non-directive, using a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing in a Solution Focused, Client Centered frame work. I can incorporate spirituality as much or as little as the client desires, from not referencing spirituality at all to fully engaging the spiritual dimension of life. As a caring, empathetic listener, people find it easy to talk with me and be open about what needs attention in their lives.
I look forward to working with you!
Greetings! I am a licensed professional counselor with over 15 years experience. Initially, I worked with teens and their families involved in the juvenile justice system. More recently, I worked with adults who were experiencing career, marriage, relationship and stress-related problems. I have been trained and received certifications on several therapeutic modalities that include Cognitive Behavioral, Short-Term, Trauma-Focused and Brief Strategic Family Therapy. I look forward to helping you navigate your concerns.
I have worked for several years to support clients in different phases of life from adolescence, high school, emergency psychiatric admission as well as outpatient services. I often work with clients who have a history of complex trauma and/or loss. I know firsthand that the dark days can feel unbearable, but there are better days ahead. I like to say that I can take clients from "surviving" to "thriving".
We all have things that we may struggle with from time to time, and it is important to find a professional that you can relate to when you need help. I enjoy helping people work through the difficulties of life, with a warm and non-judgmental attitude. My approach to therapy is laid-back and down to earth. Your sessions with me will very much be directed by you. Whatever brings you to therapy, know that it is my goal to partner with you and support you as you work toward healing, growth and wellness to sustain a healthy life with meaning and purpose.
I graduated with my Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in 2016 and I have been practicing counseling in Ohio since October 2016. I have worked with a wide spectrum of clients ranging from teenagers up to retirees. I specialize in working with youth, teens, and adults, but I thrive working with clients across the lifespan. My hope is to help clients achieve their goals for therapy, no matter the age group or struggle.
I have worked as a therapist for over 10 years, helping individuals and families find clarity and internal resources to meet their challenges. Throughout the years, I have had the honor of listening to people's stories, watched people's hidden strengths come to the light, and walked with others as they learn what works for them.
I am trained in various evidence-based modalities, such as Play Therapy, EMDR, AF-CBT, Circle of Security, and TF-CBT, which allow me to tailor my approach to client needs.
With over 30 years of experience in the mental health and addiction fields, I provide a seasoned, compassionate perspective for adults and teenagers navigating complex trauma, sudden loss, and emotional dysregulation. My easy-going approach is designed to remove the mystery from therapy, lowering your anxiety as we work through significant life transitions together. We move beyond mere symptom management toward true integration, utilizing evidence-based tools like EMDR and DBT to build lasting resilience and a reconstructed sense of self.
I help adults heal from trauma and anxiety so they can feel safer, more grounded, and more in control of their lives. My approach is warm, grounded, and collaborative, with a strong focus on nervous system regulation. I integrate practical tools you can use in your daily life with deeper therapeutic work, so you’re not just talking about your experiences—you’re learning how to feel differently in your body over time.
Welcome! I'm am independently Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) treating clients in AZ and OH. I grew up in Chicago and have been practicing in Phoenix, AZ for 17 years.

My work is best suited for clients who are ready to explore healing, build resilience, and reconnect with their sense of identity and purpose.
Through a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space, I help clients separate who they are from what they have been through, strengthen emotional regulation, and develop healthier ways of thinking, feeling, and relating.

Think of it as a reset for both your mind and your soul so you can lead, love, and live with clarity and confidence.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for ten years now. You will always know yourself better than I can or will.
From a philosophical and theoretical standpoint. I am overwhelming more of an attachment theorist, and have been known to use existentialism from time to time to help make sense of something. I guess the question that remains though is; can a butterfly flap it's wings in Brazil and cause a or tornado in Kentucky, or are we all simply just products of our childhood and mirrors of our parents traumas?
The duality of life.
Attachment Theory vs. Chaos Theory. Both have value. I digress.
My goal is to provide a petridish in which you can explore your self. Safe. Contained. Yet completely in your control. The paradox being, you likely already have what you need. I'll sit with you while you find it. I can give you my clinical opinion, or diagnosis, and recommendations along the way as well if you'd like that. I can just sit and listen. I can play devils advocate. My job is to listen, empower, observe, and provide feedback when requested.
I am a clinically licensed social worker. I went back to school at 54 after a 30 plus year career in special education and early intervention.

I am a licensed Clinical Social Worker in North Carolina, Ohio, and Alabama, with a Master's degree from the Joint Program at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro and North Carolina A&T State University. As a biracial and bicultural individual of White and Native American heritage (an enrolled member of the Lumbee Tribe of North Carolina), I bring a unique perspective to my work.

I am a licensed social worker in Ohio. I was previously licensed in Iowa. I have worked in residential treatment for children and outpatient mental health for adolescents and adults.

I am a licensed clinical social worker, advocate, mother, runner, and yoga enthusiast. I believe that everyone would benefit from talk therapy because life is challenging, complicated, and busy. I fully understand that getting ourselves to therapy is, at times, not easy and sincerely appreciate every client that intentionally decides that they are ready to grow, heal, and evolve. I believe in the power of becoming comfortable with being uncomfortable so as to push ourselves to step outside of our comfort zones.
If you’ve ever had the quiet thought, “Something just isn’t right,” you’re not alone—and it’s worth paying attention to. I provide a supportive, compassionate space where you can begin to explore those feelings without judgment. My work centers individuals navigating anxiety, depression, mood-related challenges, relationship concerns, and the lasting impact of trauma.
I often work with people who have been “the strong one” for others—deep feelers, caregivers, and those who find themselves stuck in patterns of people-pleasing, codependency, or difficulty trusting themselves. Many of my clients are unpacking experiences related to abandonment, rejection, identity concerns, or emotional overwhelm. I also support neurodivergent individuals who are seeking greater understanding of themselves and more effective ways to regulate their emotions and experiences.
My approach is warm, intentional, and grounded in the belief that healing does not have to feel cold or clinical. Therapy with me is a collaborative process where we move at your pace, creating space for reflection, emotional processing, and practical growth. Together, we will explore your experiences, challenge unhelpful patterns, strengthen boundaries, and reconnect you with a version of yourself that feels authentic and steady.
Whether you are new to therapy or returning to deepen your work, I meet you where you are—with care, curiosity, and respect for your journey.
