I am Earlene Johnson, a licensed Independent Social Worker in the state of Ohio with a strong passion for Human Services and helping individuals create meaningful and lasting change in their lives.
I believe in hope and healing, even in the midst of life’s most difficult challenges. As a clinical social worker and therapist with more than 30 years of experience, I offer compassionate, experienced support to individuals and families navigating serious illness, grief, loss, and caregiving.
I hold a Master of Social Work (MSW) from the University of Michigan and a Master of Arts (MA) in Counseling from Bowling Green State University. Throughout my career, I have specialized in helping people cope with the emotional and relational challenges that can accompany serious and chronic illness, including cancer, kidney failure, and dementia.
My work also focuses on grief and bereavement, including anticipatory grief—the grief that can begin before a death—as well as the profound loss that follows the death of someone we love. With experience as a palliative care and hospice clinician, I understand the complex intersection of medical, emotional, and family concerns that often arise during serious illness and at the end of life.
I also provide support to family caregivers, recognizing the tremendous emotional and practical demands of caring for a loved one. My goal is to create a compassionate, supportive space where individuals and families can feel heard, find meaning, process difficult emotions, and discover ways to move forward with greater hope and resilience.
I believe that even when we cannot change the circumstances we face, we can find support, connection, and healing as we navigate them together.
Randy Carmack, LISW, LICDC
Compassionate, Solution-Focused Therapy for Your Authentic Self
Hello! I’m Randy Carmack, a Licensed Independent Social Worker and Licensed Independent Chemical Dependency Counselor. Since 2014, I have been dedicated to helping individuals navigate life's challenges and unlock their full potential.
My therapeutic philosophy bridges two essential truths: I am an expert in the process of change, and you are the expert in your own life
I look forward to partnering with you to achieve the growth and greatness you desire for yourself.
I believe mental health care should feel collaborative, compassionate, and free of judgment. My goal is to create a safe, welcoming space where you feel heard, understood, and supported throughout your treatment journey.
I specialize in women's mental health, including anxiety, depression, pregnancy (antepartum), postpartum mental health, life transitions, and the unique emotional challenges women experience across different stages of life. Whether you're preparing for motherhood, adjusting after delivery, balancing career and family, or navigating everyday stress, I strive to provide personalized, evidence-based care tailored to your goals.
My approach is warm, patient-centered, and collaborative. I take the time to understand your story, educate you about your treatment options, and develop a plan that aligns with your values and lifestyle. I believe the best outcomes happen when patients feel empowered to participate in their care and have a provider they can trust.
It takes real courage to decide you want something to change. Over 28 years, across military
installations, shelters, and community agencies, I have watched people discover capacities
for growth they did not know they had. I believe relationships are the engine of that change:
our brains and bodies are wired for connection, and healing happens in relationship. I create
a space of safety, respect, and authenticity, where you bring the expertise of your own life
and story, and I bring my clinical experience to support the process. I would be honored to
work alongside you.
Hi, I'm Tiffani. I want to warmly welcome you and commend you for taking the courageous step to making yourself a priority. Life's challenges are unique to each of us, and it's not uncommon to feel overwhelmed at times. My aim is to offer a supportive and safe space where you feel heard and understood. Together, we'll explore your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to help you overcome obstacles and work towards feeling your best.
Greetings, my name is Barbara Thomas. Maybe stress won’t let up, anxiety keeps you on edge, grief hasn’t had room to breathe, or you’re ready to change your relationship with alcohol or drugs. Whatever it is, I’m here to help you find your balance again. I earned my Bachelor’s in Social Work from Cleveland State University and my Master of Social Work from The Ohio State University, with a Business Administration focus. I’ve worked in home-based services, hospitals, residential programs, and virtual settings. There I’ve supported children, teens, adults, and older adults through addiction, homelessness, anxiety, depression, PTSD, ADHD, family and relationship challenges, and major life transitions. That range has taught me that no two journeys look the same, and that everyone deserves a space where they feel respected and heard.
I am often a good fit for clients who want to integrate a spiritual perspective into therapy. By spiritual I mean living authentically, practicing mindfulness and radical acceptance, finding deep purpose, forgiving oneself and others, having compassion for yourself and others in the face of life's inevitable challenges, and seeing the sacred in the ordinary. I work with people of different faiths and those with no particular belief. I mix creativity, humor, and metaphors into therapy and encourage "daily practice for the rest of your life" to keep growth going long after therapy concludes.
I earned a Master's Degree in Mental Health Counseling from the University of Cincinnati after working in Children's Protective Services and Juvenile Court facilities. I have years of experience helping children, youth and families connect and function in more healthy ways. I see adults and couples as well, and strive to facilitate healing of hearts and marriages.
I have personal and professional experience in foster parenting and adoption. One of my special areas of interest is the effects of nutrition and exercise on mental health. I have utilized Equine-assisted Psychotherapy for twenty years as a specialty.
I'm a therapist and Air Force veteran who has spent 9 years helping young people and adults work through anxiety, trauma, and life's harder chapters. I know what it means to
carry things you don't have words for yet. Whether you're a teenager navigating something new or a veteran carrying old weight, you belong here. I'd love to connect.
Hi, I'm Rose Marie Pryor, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Ohio. I offer virtual therapy for adults working through stress, difficult transitions, and everyday emotional struggles, and I bring a warm, steady, collaborative presence to every session. If you're looking for a space where you can be fully yourself, I'd love to work together.
Hello! I believe that healing is possible for everyone, no matter how difficult life may feel right now. My goal is to create a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where you feel heard, valued, and empowered to work through life's challenges.
I take a compassionate and professional approach to therapy, combining evidence-based clinical practices with Christian principles when desired by the client. I view counseling as a collaborative process and am committed to helping individuals, couples, families, ministry leaders, and professionals develop the tools and insights needed to create meaningful, lasting change.
Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, or a major life transition, I will meet you where you are and walk alongside you on your journey toward healing, growth, and restoration. My focus is not only on helping you overcome current challenges but also on equipping you with the skills and confidence needed to thrive moving forward.
