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.
As an Independent Clinical Social Worker, I believe prioritizing your mental health is the key to finding your joy. I have been in practice for 11 years focusing on individuals navigating the impact of anxiety, depression, PTSD/trauma, working with couples, and parent mentoring.
I received my masters degree in clinical mental health counseling from Xavier University in 2020, but have been working in the mental health field since 2016. My professional background in foster care treatment has helped me form a foundation for trauma treatment.

Hi hi, I’m Ajalaa!
I’m a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor who works with adults and older teens (17+) navigating the very real, sometimes messy parts of life — relationships, identity, big life changes, chronic illness, anxiety, feeling stuck, or those “I have no idea what I’m doing right now” seasons.
If the idea of therapy feels a little awkward or intimidating, you’re definitely not alone. You don’t need to walk into my office with the perfect words, a list of goals, or even know exactly what’s bothering you. Just walk in as you, and we can figure the rest out together.... (that's my favorite part)!
My style is warm, down-to-earth, collaborative, and very much human. Therapy with me isn’t about sitting across from someone who just nods and asks, “And how does that make you feel?” for 50 minutes. We’ll talk, laugh when it’s appropriate, sit with the hard stuff when we need to, and work together to actually understand what’s going on beneath the surface.
Hello, I am Sarah, a licensed professional clinical counselor in Ohio. I received my M.A. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Akron, but I also have a M.A. from The Ohio State University in Comparative Studies, focusing on the body, trauma, and narrative. We are our stories, as well as how we re-create our stories!
I am a non-binary human and a licensed psychotherapist in California, credentialed as an LPCC. I have an ongoing dedication to staying at the forefront of best practices and advocating for ethical and inclusive counseling standards. With a history of driving positive change and fostering growth, I hold my clients' growth in the highest regard.
If you’re looking for support with anxiety, depression, stress management, grief, or a major life change, I offer an open-minded and supportive space to talk through what you’re experiencing. I have been in practice since 2003 and work with clients navigating a range of concerns and circumstances. I believe your experiences deserve to be heard without judgment, and I’ll take time to understand what brings you to care and what you hope to change. I’m based in Ohio and currently accepting new patients.
