Therapists in Ohio

I have been a counselor for over 26 years. I work with clients from very diversified backgrounds, helping clients to identify their issues, helping them to determine what is leading to these issues, and determining the best steps to address such issues. We will take a look at how your past is potentially affecting your current day and further attempt to work through any issues from your past that are stopping you from getting to where you want to be in life. I provide a nurturing, supportive and motivating environment.

I am an African American female with a strong educational and professional foundation in both mental health and business. I earned a Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling from South University and a Bachelor’s degree in Accounting from Cleveland State University. My combined educational background and life experience have shaped my understanding of human behavior, emotional triggers, coping mechanisms, and the importance of healthy boundaries. I am committed to helping individuals feel seen, heard, and understood while supporting them in developing practical tools for emotional and personal growth.

My name is Jessica Vermaak, I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Qualified Supervisor through the Florida Board of Clinical Social Work, Marriage & Family Therapy, and Mental Health Counseling as well as a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor through the Ohio Counselor, Social Worker, and MFT Board. My approach to therapy begins with client-centered care. I utilize various therapeutic frameworks to ensure that our sessions are collaborative.

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.

I listen with deep curiosity and without a shred of judgment, creating a sanctuary where you can drop your guard. I balance gentle validation with honest feedback.

Hi, I'm Jason. I'm a Licensed Independent Social Worker with Supervisory designation (LISW-S) based in Ohio. Over the past 8 years, I've had the privilege of helping adults and couples navigate anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, trauma, and the stress that can come with everyday life. Before becoming a therapist, I spent years working in manufacturing. That experience gave me an appreciation for how difficult it can be to make big life changes and start over. Since then, I've worked extensively in medical social work and hospice, supporting individuals and families through some of life's most challenging moments. Those experiences continue to shape the empathy, perspective, and compassion I bring to therapy.

My approach is collaborative, drawing primarily from Person-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Attachment-Based Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and Strengths-Based Therapy.

Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, navigating a difficult relationship, adjusting to a major life change, or simply looking for someone to help you make sense of what you're experiencing, I'm here to support you as we work toward meaningful, lasting change.

Welcome, and come as you are. I believe that meaningful change begins with understanding yourself on a deeper level. Many of the struggles we experience in adulthood, whether in relationships, self-worth, anxiety, trauma, communication, or life satisfaction, are shaped by patterns that developed long before we were aware of them. My role is to help you identify those patterns, understand why they exist, and create lasting change rather than simply managing symptoms.

I graduated from the University of Cincinnati with a Master of Social Work degree in 1992.

Hi, I’m Marie — a therapist who believes that change is always possible, no matter where you are in life. My goal is to help you feel better emotionally, think more clearly, and move toward a future that feels fulfilling and peaceful. In our sessions, we’ll work together to understand what’s been holding you back and find practical ways to move forward. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you notice how your thoughts affect your emotions and actions—and teach you tools to shift negative thinking. I also use a solution-focused approach, which means we’ll focus on your strengths, celebrate what’s working, and create small, realistic steps that bring real progress. I often work with adults who are struggling with depression, anxiety, or major life changes—like adjusting after a loss, a new diagnosis, or changes that come with getting older. My approach is supportive and empowering. I want you to feel heard, encouraged, and equipped with the tools to handle life’s challenges with more confidence and hope.

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 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
