I"m a board certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with 8 years of experience in inpatient and outpatient psychiatry. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, trauma-related symptoms, OCD, panic, and other mental health concerns. I also have an interest in women's mental health, including pregnancy, postpartum, and the emotional and psychiatric changes that can occur during perimenopause and menopause.
Whether you're a parent worried about your teen or a young adult trying to navigate life's challenges, you don't have to face them alone. Anxiety, self-doubt, perfectionism, school stress, grief, trauma, and major life transitions can leave you feeling stuck or like you've lost confidence in yourself. I'm Sylvia Bella. I help teens and young adults build confidence, develop healthy coping skills, heal from difficult experiences, and feel more like themselves again.
I think it takes guts to be in psychotherapy. Life is hard and beautiful, & it is always possible to feel better and live a fuller life, I work collaboratively with clients to cope with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting, divorce and ADHD. I received my MSW in social work from Boston College and trained on child and family teams in the Boston area.
Hi! I am Marissa, thank you for taking the time to read this and decide if I might be the therapist for you. I have a Masters in Social work from Cleveland State University and have been a Licensed Social Worker (LISW-S) since 2016. I have had the honor to work with a diverse population of people over the years. Currently I am working in private practice with individuals and families. I work with children as young as 3 years old through the lifespan. I have a passion for perinatal mental health, women's health, chronic illnesses, parenting, and children/adolescents.
Clients have often expressed feeling I am genuine and authentic in our work together. I take pride in this as I feel we are all people trying to navigate life with the skills we have and all need additional support to find healthier or better skills. I look forward to getting to know you and please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions you may have.
Hello! I work with adults who are in a season of growth, transition, or self-discovery and who may feel burned out, stuck, or unsure of themselves despite being capable and insightful.
I am a Christian Licensed Clinical Social Worker. My faith in the Holy Trinity of The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit greatly shape my life, and my work. I believe you have everything you need within you to achieve your goals and heal.
You deserve care that honors all of who you are. I'm Denise, an LPCC in Ohio with 30 years of experience supporting adults through trauma, grief, ADHD, chronic illness, and more. I'm affirming and welcoming to LGBTQIA+, transgender, and neurodiverse clients. I'd love to connect.
My background is in special education, which is why neurodiversity like Autism Spectrum Disorder, ADHD, dyslexia, and learning differences are areas where I have real depth, not just familiarity. I've spent years understanding how neurodivergent brains work - and how the mental health system often misses them. I also work with clients who've been hurt by their church, their pastor, or their faith community - what many people now call "church hurt." This is a profoundly underserved area of care, and my training at Trinity Seminary means I'm not approaching it from the outside. I understand the language, the culture, and the specific kind of grief that comes with spiritual betrayal. I treasure my global experience and look forward to working with multi-cultural people, including immigrants and refugees.
I am kind and supportive and will also hold you accountable.
I specialize in working with individuals facing PTSD, complex trauma, substance abuse challenges, and more. I earned a Master of Social Work degree from Ohio State University College of Social Work in 2012.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Westlake
Searching for therapists in Westlake starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. You may want help with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, or life transitions. As you compare Westlake therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties, training, and approach match what you want to focus on. Provider bios can help you understand whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy.
In a smaller city like Westlake, local therapist availability may vary by specialty, schedule, and appointment type. Virtual therapy can expand your options across Ohio while still giving you access to licensed care from home. You may also want to compare whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can show you how a therapist describes their style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Therapy in Westlake can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before your first appointment. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, and show estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can browse therapists in Westlake, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
