Saida Markovic

Saida Markovic

Therapist

Virtual • Ohio


I am a bilingual (English/Spanish) Clinical Mental Health Therapist dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based, and trauma-informed care in a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment. I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Cleveland State University and my Master of Science in Social Administration from Case Western Reserve University. I also completed a Trauma Certification at Case Western Reserve University (CWRU) and have training in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), an evidence-based treatment for trauma. My additional professional training includes Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and parenting skills.

I have experience working with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families from diverse cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds. My areas of focus include trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship concerns, parenting challenges, stress management, and emotional regulation. As a bilingual therapist, I am committed to providing culturally responsive care to both English- and Spanish-speaking individuals.

My approach is collaborative, strengths-based, and tailored to each client's unique needs. I believe healing begins with a trusting therapeutic relationship where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered. I integrate trauma-informed care, TF-CBT, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and person-centered techniques to help clients build resilience, develop healthy coping skills, and create meaningful, lasting change.

My goal is to help you reconnect with your strengths, restore balance, and move toward a more fulfilling and authentic life.

Therapist

I have nearly 30 years of experience in private practice, and I bring a warm, down-to-earth style to the work I do with adults and older adults. I earned my bachelor's degree in Psychology and my master's degree in Counseling Education from Ohio University, and I have spent my career helping people navigate anxiety, depression, grief, life stressors, and women's issues. Many of the clients I work with are used to being the one everyone else counts on, even when their own needs have gone unheard. My goal is to offer practical, compassionate support that helps you feel more steady, understood, and confident as you move through whatever season of life you are facing.
