Hello, My name is Josh Kale. I am licensed professional clinical counselor practicing in northeastern Ohio. I have a background in clinical mental health, art therapy and experience working with children, adults and seniors. I approach therapy in a way that is friendly, welcoming and creative. I aspire to be the type of therapist I would want to work with. I would want someone who is kind, caring, creates a safe space and takes time to actively listen without judgement. I am a therapist who is encouraging, understanding and willing to challenge you in a helpful way.

I enjoy talking and working with all individuals and I look forward to working with you...

Do you struggle with feeling disconnected? Do you put your needs at the bottom of the to-do list? Do you wonder if life should feel better? Happier? Now more than ever, people feel anxious, overwhelmed and uncertain about how to manage their relationships, careers and their lives. Pushing away your needs and not taking time for yourself can lead to long-term issues for your mind and body. It shouldn't be so hard to live a better life. We will start with understanding where you are now and the challenges you are facing. I help you put a plan in place to move forward, and celebrate successes along the way!

I have experience working with youth, teens, and young adults in various settings. I have worked with foster care children and families, helping to ease transitions and relieve post-traumatic stress symptoms. I use a variety of techniques to improve presenting symptoms and teach healthy coping skills. Helping people live a better life is my passion!

Hello! Thank you for being here. Reaching out for therapy is incredibly brave but can also be a bit overwhelming. I’m hoping I can help you see your strength and worth while we navigate all the things life throws our way.

I’m Kathy and I have been a social worker for 23 years now. I have been a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker for the last 16 years of that time. For the majority of my profession, I have been working in the hospital setting, helping patients find solutions to a wide range of needs. I have seen patients struggle in many different ways in life and helping them has also helped me grow as a social worker.

I am passionate about helping people realize they are capable of more than they think. Everyone deserves to see their worth and I would love to work with you to help you see yours.

I approach to counseling and therapy is that we're all striving to connect with our whole or "essence" self that resides within us. I see myself as a facilitator of that change. I am a holistic and trauma-informed therapist with some twenty-five years' experience.

Growing up in Africa as part of a large family with limited resources, I learned the values of resilience, perseverance, and community. My journey was not without challenges. I struggled with confidence, questioned my worth, and often felt unseen and ignored . Those experiences shaped my understanding of how deeply people need to feel valued, understood, and supported. Today, in my work as a therapist, I strive to create a welcoming, nonjudgmental space where clients feel seen, heard, and respected. Every person carries a unique story and deserves the opportunity to have their story honored with dignity, curiosity, and compassion.
