EMDR Therapists in Ohio

I'm a licensed therapist with nearly a decade of experience helping individuals navigate trauma, anxiety, and life transitions. I specialize in working with people who carry the weight of high-stress roles—like first responders—as well as anyone feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected. My approach is compassionate and practical, blending evidence-based therapies with a deep respect for your lived experience. I believe healing is possible when we create space for your story, reconnect with your values, and move toward a life that feels more grounded and meaningful.

At different points in our lives, we may encounter challenges that feel overwhelming. Often, the hardest step is simply reaching out for help. I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in the state of Ohio, credentialed by the Counselor, Social Worker, and Marriage and Family Therapist Board. I earned my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Malone University (2022) and my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Southern New Hampshire University (2020). I currently serve as Secretary on the Board for the Society for Sexual, Affectional, Intersex, and Gender Expansive Identities of Ohio and was honored to be the 2022–2023 Emerging Leader for the Ohio Association for Specialists in Group Work.

Hi, My name is Tamyka Scott. I am a Clinical Social Worker with experience with treating anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, and perinatal mental health. I've worked in both community mental health and private practice using evidenced based approaches, particularly Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to support clients in building resilience and creating meaningful change.

I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) and Licensed Independent Chemical Dependency Counselor (LICDC) with over 5 years of experience specializing in substance use disorders and mental health challenges. Holding a Master’s degree in Social Work from Ohio State University and advanced training in addiction counseling, I use a strengths-based approach focused on resilience and empowerment. My experience spans outpatient settings, residential treatment facilities, and detox, where I provide comprehensive assessments, individualized treatment plans, and trauma therapy. I incorporate evidence-based practices, including motivational interviewing, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), EMDR, and trauma-informed care, to support clients in overcoming their challenges. I am dedicated to creating a safe, supportive environment for clients to explore their issues and move toward healing. In addition to direct clinical work, I am passionate about community outreach, advocating for mental health awareness and addiction recovery. I collaborate closely with other healthcare professionals to ensure holistic, integrated care for my clients. Outside of work, I enjoy traveling, reading, drumming, swimming, and spending time with family and friends, which enriches my understanding of the diverse experiences of those I serve.

I’m a therapist with a background rooted in supporting youth, adults, and families through life’s more complex and challenging moments. With over five years of experience as a school social worker, I’ve had the privilege of supporting youth and adults through moments of growth, transition, and healing. Before that, I worked in residential programs, juvenile justice settings, and shelters for unhoused youth, experiences that shaped my deep respect for people’s strength, stories, and capacity to heal. My therapeutic style is compassionate and collaborative. I believe therapy should be a space where you feel seen, heard, and supported, whether you're navigating anxiety, life transitions, past trauma or simply feeling stuck, I'm here to walk alongside you with care and curiosity.

As a therapist, my goal is to help you answer the "why can't I..." questions. "Why can't I seem to get a handle on my anxiety or depression?", "why can't I seem to get out of these cycles of relationships, jobs, friendships?", "why can't I seem to get rid of these negative thoughts?". A lot of times these questions can feel like running in circles. But what if it wasn't a circle, but a labyrinth where you hit a few dead ends and need some help getting back on track? If those questions keep you up at night, my aim is to create a supportive and engaging space where we can explore these together. As a therapist with extensive training in trauma from the EMDR Institute and over 10 years in working with homeless youth and refugee populations, I have helped many individuals find answers to those questions. I offer online Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy. With starting Revival Therapeutic Services, our goal is to provide affordable, trauma-focused and LGBTQ + affirming online and in person therapy. If you've ever struggled with any of those "why can't I..." questions or are struggling with adjusting to life after a traumatic experience, I invite you to reach out.

My name is Tracey Warren and I have over 25 years in the field of helping others and mental health. My yearss of experiencee have allowed me the ability to assist those individuals with maximizing their quality of life by learning skills to assist them with being able to function at their best capacity. As a clinician, I specialize in treating those effected by trauma and complex trauma.

My practice was born from the understanding that for people who struggle often have filled their their day to day lives with survival mechanisms — habits, actions, and thoughts that may have helped in the moment but become burdensome over time. The lasting effects of trauma can create an overwhelming sense of self-blame, leaving individuals questioning, "Am I the problem?" or "Did I do something wrong?" My practice exists to help individuals build a healthier "life worth living" — where pain, fear, sadness, anger, and memories can be honored rather than suppressed. It is a place where healthier coping skills are developed, empowering clients to create lives filled with resilience and meaning. I am a licensed clinical social worker who has five years of experience and graduated from Case Western Reserve University with a dual degree in Social Work and Nonprofit Organizational Management. Outside of work I love to travel, cook, and craft.

Every client is unique and is facing their own distinctive challenges. Therefore each treatment plan should be personalized and individualized. An ideal client is one who comes to counseling with an open mind and is ready to try new approaches and coping skills. Each person will benefit differently from a wide variety of approaches. Together we can and will find the right strategies that work best for you. There is not a "normal" or "standard" cookie-cutter path. It is a journey! I have experience working with issues as grief, anxiety, anger, mood, neurological, trauma, relationship issues, substance use disorders, and more. I am dually independently licensed and passionate about providing the utmost quality of services to people struggling with mental health, substance use disorders and dual diagnoses. I have over 10 years of practice, including a wide array of experience, working with clients of all age groups individually, with couples and in groups. The therapeutic environment is a safe place for clients and their families to experience their vulnerabilities while sharing their stories. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, existential, EMDR, and Person-Centered treatment interventions and I have found that when using these interventions, people begin to realize the strength to overcome challenges.
