I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker based in Ohio and have been in the field since 2013. I graduated from Miami University in 2013 with my bachelor's degree in psychology and worked as a case manager for a year, assisting adults with managing mental health symptoms. I also helped with medication management, and assisted with supporting them in daily living skills, before getting my master's degree in social work in 2016. Once I graduated with my Master's, I then worked at a community based correctional facility for 3 years as a mental health and addiction specialist. I completed diagnostic assessments and facilitated individual and group therapy sessions for mental health and addiction. From there, I began working at an inpatient behavioral health hospital and assisted patients there with acute mental health needs and helped to provide referrals for outpatient treatment. Since 2020, I have been working with clients doing individual therapy and have been growing my private practice. I find it rewarding to be able to work with clients long-term and get to know them as a person while meeting each individual where they are; what their struggles are, what their successes are, see progress they make in different areas of their lives, and develop a rapport that is respectful and supportive. I have been able to gain a great deal of experience over my 13 years with a very diverse background through promotion and advancement, in the mental health field, and those experiences help me to navigate my therapeutic approach to assist with being able to better serve clients while we are working together.
It takes courage to reach out for support, and I feel honored to be trusted with my clients’ stories. I strive to create a safe, compassionate space where we’ll work at your pace to build insight, resilience, and lasting change. I have a background in both medical social work and residential mental health, allowing me to build rapport quickly so you can feel safe in our sessions.
Hi, I’m Eleanor, I'm a marriage and family therapist who believes therapy should be a space where you can talk about the hard stuff, laugh a little, and feel comfortable being real. I’m here to help you make sense of what’s going on, challenge you when needed, and figure out how to move forward.
Hi, I'm Alex! I believe therapy should be a place where you feel comfortable showing up exactly as you are. My goal is to create a warm, supportive, and collaborative space where you can explore life's challenges without fear of judgment.
I specialize in working with adults who are experiencing anxiety, stress, and life transitions, using evidence-based approaches that are tailored to your unique needs and goals. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, adjusting to a major life change, or simply looking for extra support, we'll work together to better understand what's getting in the way and help you move toward the life you want to live.
Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and I'm honored to be part of that journey. My hope is that you'll leave each session feeling heard, supported, and empowered with tools to navigate life's ups and downs with greater confidence.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with extensive experience supporting individuals
through life’s challenges with compassion, respect, and practical guidance. I work with adults
facing anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, relationship concerns, and the emotional
impact of trauma. My approach is collaborative and strengths-based, creating a safe,
nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard and supported.
I believe therapy should be both meaningful and useful—helping you better understand yourself
while building skills you can apply in everyday life. I draw from evidence-based practices and
tailor treatment to each person’s unique needs, values, and goals. Whether you are seeking
clarity, healing, or tools to move forward, I partner with you to support lasting growth and
emotional well-being.
Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, and you don’t have to do it alone. I
would be honored to work with you on your journey toward greater balance, insight, and
resilience.
I am a licensed professional counselor with a doctoral degree in counselor education and supervision, offering a thoughtful, collaborative space for growth and healing. I work with adults, and seniors, integrating a holistic approach that honors the mind, body, and spiritual dimensions. My role is to walk alongside you as you navigate challenges, build insight, and move toward meaningful, lasting change.
I work with older adults and the family members who care for them, helping people steady themselves through changes in health, grief, loneliness, and the loss of independence. After more than 12yrs in this work, I've seen how much lighter things can feel when you have a calm practical space to sort through things. "If your juggling work, family and caring for a parent, it's easy to lose track of who you are outside of those roles. Together, well look at realistic ways to lighten the load so you can ease the overwhelm and care for others without losing yourself". I am bilingual in English and Swahili, and I've worked with people from many cultural backgrounds. I know sharing your story to a new person can feel restless, so I'll meet you at whatever pace feels comfortable to you. I believe that people have the capacity for growth, healing and positive change when they experience a safe, supportive therapeutic environment. Rather than immediately trying to fix the problem, I strive to create an environment where people feel heard, understood, respected and accepted.
I’m Jessica Johnson, an independently licensed therapist for both mental health and substance use for over a decade. I believe everyone deserves grace for where they are and support to grow to where they want to be. I can help you untangle difficult thoughts, feelings, and experiences to improve your well-being, using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing techniques, and more. As a solution-focused therapist, I will encourage you to embrace ideas and opportunities and will provide a trusting environment as you do so. I support a harm-reduction approach for substance use disorder, understanding that growth is incremental and not everyone is ready for complete abstinence. Taking care of yourself is important and you don't have to do it alone.
Hi, I'm Megan. If you're feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, facing a major life change, struggling to find balance, or working through fertility concerns, you don't have to navigate it all on your own. I also have experience supporting clients through grief and other difficult seasons of life.
My goal is to create a calm and comfortable space where you can talk openly without feeling judged. We will work at a pace that feels right for you while focusing on the changes you would like to make. I'll listen, support you, and help you build practical skills that can make challenges feel more manageable. I look forward to supporting you as you work toward your goals.
Welcome - I am glad you are here! I am accepting new Ohio and Kentucky clients via telehealth in February.
Life is a complex mix of beauty and messiness, and I believe that while time passes, true healing requires intention. Our experiences—from our earliest memories to the present—shape how we move through the world. I am here to help you gently navigate those layers, understanding how your past influences your present so you can intentionally reshape your future.
My Approach
I provide a safe, affirming, and non-judgmental space where you are always the expert on your own life. My practice blends:
Trauma-Informed & Strengths-Based Care: Honoring your history while focusing on your inherent resilience.
Practical Tools: Providing actionable skills you can use outside of our sessions to support your daily well-being.
Collaborative Growth: Whether you are navigating grief, trauma, or a major life transition, we will work together to build a path that reflects your unique needs.
The Goal
Together, we will work toward a future where you can hold compassion for your past, purpose in your present, and genuine hope for your future. You don’t have to find your footing alone.
I am a woman who grew up in a military family that has moved all around the world and changed many schools growing up. I started my career in juvenile corrections, then addiction studies, then mental health and now integrated healthcare. I specialize in the whole person and encouraging them to be the person they wish to be and seek to be. I have dealt with many adversities in my life as well as many amazing things that have occurred in my life. I use those experiences in my practice to empathize with my clients and remind them that all people experience things differently even if they are the same experiences. Individualized treatment is essential.
Hi, I’m glad you’re here. I’m a therapist who believes meaningful change starts with feeling truly understood.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker serving clients in North Carolina, Ohio, and Alabama. I earned my Master of Social Work degree through the Joint Program at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro and North Carolina A&T State University and have spent the past 15 years working in a variety of mental health settings.
As a biracial and bicultural woman of White and Native American heritage and an enrolled member of the Lumbee Tribe of North Carolina, I understand the importance of culture, identity, belonging, and lived experience in the healing process.
I specialize in helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, self-esteem challenges, family conflict, grief, loss, and caregiver burnout. I also have extensive experience working with trauma survivors, including individuals recovering from unhealthy relationships, emotional abuse, religious trauma and domestic violence. While I enjoy working with adults from all backgrounds, I am especially passionate about supporting women as they build confidence, strengthen boundaries, heal from past experiences, and reconnect with their sense of self.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and down-to-earth. I believe therapy should be a space where you can show up as your authentic self without fear of judgment. I strive to create an environment where clients feel safe, heard, respected, and empowered to make meaningful changes in their lives. Many clients tell me they appreciate my conversational, down-to-earth style. While therapy can involve discussing difficult topics, I also believe healing can include moments of humor, self-discovery, and recognizing your strengths along the way. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, processing trauma, navigating a major life transition, or working to create healthier relationships, you do not have to face it alone.
I am committed to providing affirming care for individuals who identify as BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, bicultural/biracial, neurodivergent, ability-diverse, and those from underrepresented communities.
If you’re unsure whether therapy is right for you—or you’ve tried it before and it didn’t quite help—you’re not alone. I’m a licensed social worker with over 20 years of experience working with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, identity questions, and life transitions. I support people in making sense of their experiences, building self-awareness, and responding to challenges in more intentional and effective ways. My approach is direct and supportive, helping you feel heard while also encouraging new perspectives.
I am a licensed clinical therapist with over 30 years of experience supporting adults in overcoming mental health and substance use challenges. My approach is grounded in evidence-based practices, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness-Based Therapy, helping clients build practical skills to manage emotions, improve thinking patterns, and create lasting change. I strive to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, gain insight, and develop tools to move forward with confidence.
I am passionate about genuine connection and supporting others in improving their wellbeing. Participating in therapy is such a unique relationship and to have a successful relationship, trust is so important. My goal is to connect authentically so that you also feel safe in showing up with your whole self. Before becoming a therapist, I was a preschool teacher and residential therapy technician for autistic youth. I've been a licensed mental health clinician for the past 9, working with cli5- 90 in a variety of community and school based settings. Now, I'm focusing on adolescent and adult clients who are looking for collaboration to explore more about themselves and determine how they want to participate in their lives- this may include learning emotional regulation skills, finding new perspectives, coping with mental health symptoms, or improving their relationships. I look forward to connecting with you and being part of your growth!

I have experience providing in-home, out-patient and school counseling with additional experience in various social services settings supporting children and families with reunification and adoption. Supporting and guiding clients through difficult traumas and life's challenges in a safe and nonjudgmental environment is what I strive for. My goal is to assist children, adolescents, and adults to reach their highest potential and to help couples and families live more harmonious and joyful lives together.

Hello! I am so glad you came across my profile; and that you are considering taking this very important step towards changing your life. I am a licensed clinical social worker, based in the Raleigh Durham area of North Carolina. I am licensed in North Carolina, Connecticut, Florida, and Texas. I received my undergraduate degree from the University of North Carolina at Wilmington and my graduate degree from the University of Georgia.
I have spent the majority of my career in healthcare settings and working with adults who are experiencing challenges with mental health.

I have also worked with children who have a loved one facing a life-altering medical diagnosis.

I’m a clinical psychologist based in Ohio who works with adults navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship issues, identity concerns, and the pressure to “have it all together.” I take a genuinely collaborative approach to therapy and put a lot of care into building a strong, trusting relationship where you don’t have to censor yourself.
My work is grounded in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which means we’ll focus less on “fixing” or fighting your feelings and more on getting clear about your values and building a life that feels meaningful to you. Instead of trying to shut emotions down, I help clients learn how to make space for feelings, respond with compassion, and use practical coping skills to stay present and move toward what matters most.
I’ve spent much of my career working with college and graduate students, so I’m familiar with the unique stressors of academic life, emerging adulthood, and major life transitions. I approach therapy through a lens of cultural humility, actively honoring how your race, ethnicity, gender identity, sexual orientation, neurodivergence, religion or spirituality, class background, and other identities shape your experiences. I work to create a space where your culture and identities are not just “respected,” but meaningfully integrated into our work together, and where your values and lived experience guide our goals and the way we move through therapy.
As a Certified Geek Therapist, I enjoy working with clients whose “geeky” interests—like video games, anime, superheroes, board games, and TTRPGs—are a meaningful part of their lives. Together, we can use your fandoms and favorite stories as tools for insight, coping, and growth, treating them as strengths rather than quirks you have to hide in therapy.
I am a kind and supportive therapist. I provide a space for you to process your experience, pain and trauma so that you can move forward freely. Many of us carry unresolved concerns and issues; many of us have unresolved trauma. This weight keeps us back from being who we wish to be. I can remain present even during very difficult conversations.
Hi there, I'm Jessica! I am an independent licensed social worker with over ten years of experience in the mental health field. I earned my Bachelor’s Degree in Social Work from Ursuline College and my Master of Social Science degree from Case Western Reserve University. My practice is dedicated to helping individuals build resilience. I provide a safe space for adults dealing with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, stress, post-partum depression and major life transitions. I utilize an integrative, holistic approach that blends evidence-based CBT with mindfulness techniques and self-compassion practices, helping clients move from self-criticism to self-acceptance.
Hi, I’m Lisa Knight, LPCC. I’m passionate about supporting children, teens, and adults as they navigate life’s challenges, whether that’s coping with trauma, managing anxiety or depression, or adjusting to difficult transitions. I believe every person has the capacity to heal and grow, and I focus on helping you build resilience, develop healthy coping strategies, and move toward your personal goals.
My approach is both compassionate and practical, tailored to each person’s unique journey. In our work together, I create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can be heard and understood, explore your feelings and experiences, and gain tools to make meaningful, lasting changes in your life. I aim to empower you to feel stronger, more confident, and equipped to handle whatever comes your way.
Hi, I’m Jacalyn Yurick, LISW-S. I’m a licensed therapist with over 10 years of experience helping adolescents and adults navigate trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship stress, grief, substance use, and major life transitions. I specialize in working with individuals who feel emotionally overwhelmed, stuck in survival mode, or exhausted from carrying the weight of everything on their own. Many of the clients I work with are high-functioning on the outside while silently struggling internally with anxiety, unresolved trauma, burnout, people-pleasing, self-doubt, or emotional exhaustion. Others come to therapy after years of feeling misunderstood, emotionally disconnected, or unable to fully move forward despite trying everything they can to “just cope.” My goal is to help clients move beyond simply surviving and begin feeling more grounded, confident, connected, and emotionally at peace. I am EMDR-trained and have extensive experience treating complex trauma and PTSD. In addition to trauma work, I frequently help clients struggling with panic attacks, chronic stress, mood disorders, relationship difficulties, emotional regulation, grief and loss, and substance use concerns. I utilize evidence-based approaches including EMDR, CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, mindfulness-based interventions, Solution-Focused Therapy, and strengths-based treatment tailored to each client’s individual needs. My background includes work in inpatient psychiatric hospitals, residential substance use treatment, outpatient mental health, school-based therapy, couples counseling, and telehealth. Working across these settings has given me experience supporting clients through both crisis situations and long-term personal growth.
Clients often describe me as down-to-earth, supportive, direct, and easy to talk to. Therapy does not require you to have everything figured out before you begin. You only need a starting point, and together we can work toward meaningful and lasting change.
If you are feeling stuck in a loop of unhelpful habits, or if everyday challenges are starting to feel overwhelming, you don't have to navigate it alone. You might be searching for a way to break through the exhaustion and finally see lasting, meaningful change in your life. As a professional counselor, my focus is entirely on your unique path. Together, we will build a supportive, real partnership dedicated to uncovering your personal strengths. We won't just talk about the problems; we will focus on practical solutions for your daily life so you can start feeling better as quickly as possible.
I am licensed in Ohio with ten years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, coping with grief and loss, & motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.
I'm Rebecca Johnson, LPC, BCBC, a therapist, nature-lover, and dog mom. I help women navigate anxiety, late-diagnosed ADHD, life transitions, burnout, identity work, self-esteem, and attachment issues. My approach is warm, practical, and collaborative. Together, we'll identify the patterns keeping you stuck, build self-trust, and develop tools that support you outside the therapy room. In addition to individual therapy, I also provide pre-surgical bariatric psychological assessments. I integrate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and somatic therapy. Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, we'll find what works best for you and your unique goals.
I specialize in building a strong and healthy rapport through focusing on client strengths and interests to assist in their personal growth. I help strengthen the therapeutic relationship by providing unconditional positive regard and taking a nonjudgmental stance for and towards my clients with empathy and connection to assist in growth.
Life can be difficult most days, but some days and seasons life can be overwhelming. When life gets overwhelming sometimes we need to reach out to an outside source for help and guidance. I am here to provide that help and guidance that may be needed during a specific difficult season of life.
Hello there! My name is Beth, and I am a licensed independent social worker who has been practicing as a therapist for over three years. Are you feeling weighed down with depression or trapped in anxiety? Are you ready to start unpacking some trauma and learning about how your thoughts shape your actions? I would love to help you to find some skills to navigate those things. My approach is trauma-informed and brings some nerdy references and levity to the conversation.
With over 20 years experience as a School Social Worker, I recognized a growing need for students and families to have access to quality outpatient counseling and community resources. Throughout my career, I often saw individuals struggle to find a therapist they truly connected with or face barriers to receiveing the support they needed. That inspired me to become the change I wanted to see by extending my services beyond the school setting. My goal is to provide a warm, compassionate, and culturally responsive space where children, adolescents and adults feel seen, heard and empowered. I believe that a strong therapeutic relationship is the foundation for healing, and I am committed to helping each client build the skills, confidence, and resilience needed to navigate life's challenges and create lasting, meaningful change,
Reaching out is a meaningful first step— I am glad you are here. For me, therapy is about creating a genuine connection where we can talk openly, make sense of things and figure out what comes next based on what matters to you. After 25 years working in behavioral health with adults from many different backgrounds, I've learned there is no one-size-fits-all approach to therapy. I value genuine connection, collaboration and even a little humor when it fits the moment. I also understand that life doesn't always follow the plan we had in mind and sometimes we need support navigating the chapters we didn't expect.
I have been a licensed social worker for the past 30 years. I have worked in child welfare and at the Veteran's Health Administration, and all of the work I have done has been working with people with anxiety, depression and or trauma. I think I lean as much from the people I work with as much as they learn from me. I believe people can change, people can grow and people are capable of making possible what seems impossible. I am eclectic in my practice, but I lean heavily on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, Motivational Interviewing, Trauma informed, Reality based and Solution Focused treatment.
Hello, I'm Ryan Lentz Sr. I have 26 years working in Mental Health. The past 13 years I have been working as a psychotherapist.

I am an adult adoptee with 20 years of experience working in the adoption space. I train prospective adoptive parents, and train mental health professionals in adoption competence. I am a parent, and a cat mom who loves to read and enjoys live theater. My clinical focus is to help adoptees and adoptive parents understand the lifelong journey of adoption in all its variations and complexities, as well as working with clients who have trauma or attachment challenges for reasons other than adoption.
You may be feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stuck, or uncertain about what comes next. Maybe you're navigating a major life transition, grieving a loss, struggling with ADHD or neurodivergence, or questioning whether the life you're living actually feels like your own. You may be functioning well on the outside while privately feeling exhausted, disconnected, or unsure of yourself. Perhaps you spend a lot of time thinking, analyzing, or trying to figure things out on your own, but still feel stuck. Therapy can offer a space to slow down, understand what's happening, and explore what you want to do differently.
I work with adults navigating anxiety, grief and loss, life transitions, ADHD and neurodivergence, relationship concerns, and questions of identity, purpose, and direction. I especially enjoy working with thoughtful people who want to better understand themselves while also finding practical ways to navigate the demands of everyday life.

My Expertise & Training
I am Rachael, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in Ohio. To give you the highest level of care, I hold two master degrees in counseling that focus on marriage, family, and currently completing my Doctorate in Community Care and Counseling, specializing in Traumatology.
This advanced training means I am deeply qualified to offer an enriched, holistic framework that effectively targets trauma, emotional challenges, family conflict, and situational hardships. By utilizing these evidence-based practices, I will help your nervous system settle, restore harmony to your life, and empower you with the tools needed to bounce back and thrive.
My role isn’t to steer your life for you, but to sit alongside you as a steady and supportive presence. I’m here to offer insight, perspective, and tools when they’re helpful, always in service of what matters most to you. My goal is to first explore what healing looks like for you, as it is different for everyone. I specialize in supporting individuals experiencing OCD, maladaptive perfectionism, anxiety, trauma, grief, life transitions, and chronic illness.
When you’re used to caring for others, it can be hard to make space for yourself. I have a special interest in working with caregivers, especially those caring for loved ones impacted by Dementia. Caregiving can be deeply rewarding, but it can also bring exhaustion, grief, and guilt. You don’t have to navigate these feelings alone. Over the past 6 years, I’ve supported people impacted by chronic illnesses, major life transitions, grief, and relationship challenges. I also enjoy working with adults experiencing Depression, Anxiety, stress, and burnout. My approach is warm, collaborative, and solution focused. Together, we’ll work to build on your strengths and develop practical tools to help you move forward. If you’re ready to take the next step, I would be honored to support you.

I listen with empathy and compassion. I meet people where they are, whether they are ready to dive right in and make changes, or need time to engage and decide if therapy is right for them. I enjoy connecting your past experiences with current life choices. I love helping people see that they have all of the skills they need for change, they just may not know it yet. Incorporating laughter, moments of relaxation and finding joy are a must for our sessions. My ultimate goal is to have the client leaving the session feeling better than when they started.
Hi there! My name is Valeria.
Feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or burned out from trying to balance work, relationships, and major life changes?
I help high-achieving adults navigate anxiety, stress, burnout, and life transitions so they can feel more grounded, confident, and emotionally balanced.
I provide therapy in both English and Spanish and have extensive experience supporting Hispanic and Latino clients navigating stress, cultural transitions, burnout, and life changes in a supportive and culturally sensitive environment.
I work with smart, capable people who spend much of their time handling responsibilities, solving problems, and showing up for others - but struggle to say no, let go of perfectionism, or give themselves permission to slow down and just relax for a bit.
I offer a thoughtful space to get curious about the expectations you place on yourself, why slowing down can feel so uncomfortable, and why saying no or disappointing others can leave you feeling anxious and guilt-ridden ~even when you know you want to.
Together, we'll explore the patterns behind the challenges and find ways to make life feel a little easier and more sustainable.
