Therapists in Ohio

I am passionate about creating a warm, supportive, and collaborative space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered. I enjoy working with children, adolescents, adults, and couples as they navigate challenges such as stress, anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship concerns, and the impact of past experiences. My goal is to help clients build insight, strengthen coping skills, and move toward healing, growth, and meaningful change.

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.

Hello & Welcome, I am Dr. Watson and I am happy to see you seeking services and reclaiming your joy. I commend you for taking the first step to improving your life. As a licensed psychotherapist in IL, AZ, CO, KY, ME, CT, DE, and OH. I have 30 years of experience working with teens, adults, and seniors, I look forward to partnering with you through your transition and supporting you in getting back into your journey of life. I specialize in working with people in transition including integrating better balance, managing life stressors, addressing health challenges, rediscovering wellness, and mid-life changes. Other areas of specialty include grief and loss, women’s issues, post-partum adjustment, multiethnic identity development/integration, student-athlete balance, and generalized life struggles. First responders, partners and families of first responders are specialized populations I help by addressing needs, increasing understanding, and strengthening support. Together we will explore obstacles and hurdles while discovering manageable strength-based changes that will improve your whole self - mind, body, and spirit. I partner with you on your journey and assist you in reclaiming your best self. Through mind-body connection and holistic approaches, I embrace creative therapeutic tools including talk, movement, music, art, getting in nature, and other creative avenues to ease expression of the challenges while finding your strengths and successes. My goal is to assist you in finding and retrieving your purpose while living with meaning. My clinical practice motto is “Love YOUR Journey ~ Live YOUR Life.”

I believe that trauma is experienced in relationship and through relationship trauma is healed as well. It's my hope that I will always be the kind of clinician with whom my client can develop a relationship that enables them to experience a measure of healing during each encounter we have. It is also my hope that I will empower every client, through providing them with all of my knowledge and skills, in a manner that will work me out of a job. My agenda is to provide each client with skills that, when implemented, will carry them through every challenging situation that they might encounter so they can be successful in living life on purpose.

Do you feel like you're running at full capacity, with no room left to slow down? On the outside, you're the person who has it all together—the high-performing professional, the dependable parent, the supportive partner. On the inside, it looks different depending on the day. Maybe it's anxiety that never quite shuts off. Maybe it's depression that's crept in under the weight of everything you carry. Maybe it's burnout from roles that never let you clock out. For many, it's not just one—it's all of them, looping together until it's hard to tell where one ends and the next begins. My Approach: The Engineer's Mindset My foundational background is in Mechanical Engineering, and while I transitioned to counseling to follow my passion for human connection, that analytical, systems-based training never left me. I don't just see "problems"; I see complex systems that need adjustment, recalibration, and better fuel. How This Mindset Benefits You Most of my clients are high-achievers tired of "surface-level" talk therapy. They want a therapist as dedicated to results as they are. Together, we will: Analyze the System: Move beyond symptoms to identify the breakdowns underneath—depression, anxiety, career burnout, or family dynamics. Build a Mental Blueprint: Create a concrete plan using evidence-based tools like DBT and EMDR to process trauma and work through performance issues holding you back. Optimize Relationships: Help couples and families move from constant conflict to genuine connection. Move from Surviving to Thriving: Since 2013, I've helped clients navigate major life changes—career pivots, new parenthood, loss—and build a life of purpose and sustainable well-being.

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.

My ideal clients may be navigating crisis, life transitions, or ongoing challenges such as co-occurring concerns, and are open to exploring the root causes of what they’re experiencing while developing practical tools for long-term growth. I take a strengths-based approach, believing that each person already holds the foundation needed for success. Together, we identify and build on those strengths to move through obstacles with confidence and clarity. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from Case Western Reserve University with a concentration in Drugs and Alcohol, and my Bachelor of Science in Social Work from Bowling Green State University. With over eight years of experience supporting children, families, and adults—including those involved in foster care, caregiving systems, and crisis situations—I am comfortable working with clients who may feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure of their next steps. I especially enjoy partnering with individuals and families who are motivated to create change, even if they’re not quite sure where to begin.
