Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Lakewood, OH

Over nine years ago my life changed. I lost a son to suicide due to unaddressed mental health needs. A system that was overwhelmed failed him. I returned to school to help close that gap and want to work with others to start their journey towards mental wellness. As someone who has experienced depression and anxiety, I understand the challenges faced.

I have been in the medical field for over 20 years and have a rather diverse background. The last 6 years I have been in the role of PMHNP. Prior to that an RN in hospice, preceding that was critical care. Prior to becoming a nurse, I worked as an STNA.

I’m a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Kent State University. I work with clients from young adults to older individuals, who are navigating a range of challenges such as anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship issues, trauma, and LGBTQ+ concerns. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, stress, or life transitions, I’m here to support you in a way that honors your unique journey and values.

My name is Jeannine Taylor. I earned a Master's degree in Marriage & Family Therapy and a Doctoral Degree from Kent State University. I also am Assistant Professor of Family & Community Medicine at Northeast Ohio College of Medicine. I enjoy helping people balance work and family; navigate the challenges before, during and after divorce; and cope with changes associated with midlife and later life. I also help clients make career decisions and establish educational goals.

PLEASE NOTE: I AM NOT ACCEPTING NEW COUPLES AS OF MARCH 6, 2026; HOWEVER, I AM ACCEPTING NEW INDIVIDUAL CLIENTS.

Hi there!

I'm Jordan, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor Supervisor (LPCC-S). I have a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and a Psychology degree with minors in Child and Family Development. Over the past 6 years, I’ve supported adults using evidence-based approaches including EMDR, CBT, DBT skills, and mindfulness, and I tailor therapy to you—because we’re not doing a cookie-cutter approach here.

I help adolescents, adults, couples, and families move beyond patterns that keep them stuck. Using EMDR, CBT, and DBT, I focus on building insight, strengthening coping skills, and creating lasting change. I approach therapy with a clear understanding of how past experiences can shape current patterns, while helping clients build practical tools to improve daily functioning. My background in crisis work allows me to provide steady, effective support even in high-stress situations.

I have served OH and MI areas for over 2 decades. Once specializing in children, now I enjoy working with preteens, teens, and adults who can participate more actively in their treatment. I started specializing in trauma in 2016 after I completed extensive training.
