I’m Kendra Compton, a dedicated social worker with over 30 years of experience empowering individuals and families to thrive. My journey began with a heartfelt desire to make a positive impact in the lives of children and adults alike. Over the decades, I’ve honed my skills as a relationship-oriented therapist who truly believes in the healing power of genuine human connection. I blend evidence-based therapeutic techniques with a warm, compassionate style. My approach is always:
- Person-Centered – I meet each client where they are, honoring their unique strengths and experiences.
- Relationship-Focused – I believe trust and rapport lay the groundwork for meaningful change.
- Strengths-Based – I highlight what’s working well and build upon those successes.
Helping others bring me endless inspiration. Their courage, curiosity, and capacity for joy remind me daily why I chose this path. I grew up in a family of athletes and am an avid sports fan—whether participating, cheering from the sidelines (mostly my son) or watching a game on TV, I see sports as a powerful metaphor for teamwork, perseverance and personal growth. These values naturally weave into my therapeutic style, encouraging clients to set goals, lean on their support systems, and celebrate every milestone.
If you’re looking for a therapist who listens deeply, cares wholeheartedly, and partners with you every step of the way, you’ve come to the right place. My mission is to help you and your family write the next chapter of your story—one defined by resilience, hope, and stronger connections.
Feel free to reach out, and let’s start this journey toward healing and growth together.

"Mental health is not a destination, but a process. It’s about how you drive, not where you’re going." I'm an LPCC with 17 years of clinical experience, and I offer telehealth therapy to adults throughout Ohio. I specialize in anxiety, depression, ADHD, grief, men's mental health, PTSD, and life transitions — but most of the people I work with don't arrive with a clean diagnosis. They arrive feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or like they've been managing too much for too long.I work with adults and seniors who are done feeling like they have to figure everything out alone. My approach is direct and warm — I'm not going to sit in silence waiting for you to lead. We work together. I use DBT, ACT, and mindfulness-based techniques, but in practice that means building skills that actually fit your life, not homework from a textbook.I'm particularly well-suited to working with men who've been skeptical about therapy, adults navigating ADHD later in life, and anyone carrying grief they haven't had space to process. I offer a free 15-minute consultation before your first session so you can decide if we're a good fit.

My path to psychiatry began with a simple observation: mental health needs are everywhere, yet not enough people have access to care. After five years as a family nurse practitioner, I made the move to psychiatric care because I wanted to be part of the solution. I bring a holistic perspective to every session, drawing on years of primary care experience to understand how physical and mental health are connected in each person. I am board certified and see patients virtually in Ohio. If you are navigating anxiety, depression, or PTSD, I am here to work alongside you toward real, lasting change.

Counseling for me is about companionship! Companions are with you through the good and the not-so-good. The most important thing in counseling is creating a relationship where people can feel and think how they want to about their experience within the relationship because whether we are stepping in the right or wrong direction we are ever growing and changing. Everyone perceives life through a different lens. Biological, physiological, and environmental variables influence those perspectives in different domains of people’s lives. All ages with: Anxiety, Depression, Addictions, Schizo and Mood Spectrum, Paraphallic, and Trauma.

Hi, I'm Max, a licensed clinical social worker in Chicago. I work with teens and adults carrying anxiety, trauma, PTSD, OCD, or family conflict that feels too heavy to hold alone. My goal is simple: help you feel steadier, more understood, and less stuck. I'd love to talk with you or your family about what's going on.

Hi, I am Joe, a licensed mental health therapist. I believe that people are capable of change, which is why I do what I do. It's understandable if you come to therapy feeling low and unmotivated. This is normal. Your first step in coming here is a big deal and not an easy decision or task. That right there is motivation. I believe in a collaborative approach and meeting you where you are in your life. I am not an expert on you, but we can work together to understand what is getting in the way of your goals and make plans to address these areas. I am here to help you figure out what needs to change and to guide you through the process of improving your mental health and growing as a person. I am a caring, open, and non-judgmental person, who loves cats, music, reading, and video games. I enjoy spending time with my friends and family, especially around a bon fire.
