Stacy Trostler

Therapist

Virtual • Ohio


My clients are often accomplished people — professionals, parents, caregivers — who are good at managing everything for everyone else and have quietly stopped taking care of themselves. I work with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, life transitions, and the kind of burnout that doesn't come with a visible cause. If you're in the Beachwood or east Cleveland area, or anywhere in Ohio via telehealth, I'd love to connect.

Anne Termini

Anne Termini

Therapist

Virtual • Ohio


I work with adults 55 and older who are dealing with big life changes — illness, caregiving, grief, retirement, or simply finding themselves in a chapter they didn’t plan for.

A lot of my clients come in because something has shifted. A diagnosis. A loss. The exhaustion of caring for someone else. Or that feeling of, “This isn’t the life I pictured.”

I’ve worked for many years alongside palliative care teams and with people living with serious illness. I understand how overwhelming medical decisions, uncertainty, and anticipatory grief can be.

I also know loss personally. My husband died after a battle with cancer, and rebuilding my own life changed how I sit with others. I don’t just understand this work professionally — I’ve lived parts of it.

Most of the people I see aren’t looking for years of therapy. They want a place to sort through what’s happening, get steadier, and figure out what comes next. We usually work together for a focused stretch — anywhere from a few sessions to a few months.

We meet by telehealth. It’s simple and private, and I’ll handle the logistics.

Therapist

Virtual • Columbus, OH


Looking for a therapist can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to figure it out alone. I provide virtual therapy for adults throughout Florida, Ohio, and Indiana, offering a warm, supportive, and collaborative space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered to make meaningful change.

I work with adults experiencing anxiety, OCD, depression, bipolar disorder, relationship challenges, trauma, eating disorders, chronic pain, infertility or IVF, and major life transitions. Together, we’ll better understand what’s keeping you stuck, strengthen coping skills, improve emotional regulation, and help you move forward with greater confidence.

I have a special interest in supporting adults living with chronic pain, chronic illness, infertility, IVF, and other medical conditions that impact mental health. These experiences can affect every part of life—including relationships, identity, self-esteem, work, and daily functioning. You deserve a space where those challenges are understood and where you don’t have to carry them alone.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical. I believe therapy should feel like a genuine conversation where you feel comfortable being yourself while also feeling supported and challenged to grow.

I earned my B.A. in Psychology and my M.Ed. in Rehabilitation and Mental Health Counseling from Florida Atlantic University. With more than 11 years of experience helping adults, my goal is to provide compassionate, evidence-based care tailored to your unique needs.

If you’re ready to take the next step, I’d be honored to support you.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Ohio

Searching for therapists in Ohio starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want support with. Across a state with large metro areas, smaller cities, and rural communities, available therapists and care options can vary by location. You may be looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, grief, relationship concerns, or life transitions. As you compare Ohio therapists, look for specialties, therapy styles, and experience listed in each bio, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or support for specific life stages.

Location and format also matter when choosing therapy in Ohio. If you live near Columbus, Cleveland, or Cincinnati, you may have a wider range of in-person options, while virtual appointments can expand your search across more licensed Ohio therapists. Consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether their schedule works with yours. Reading a therapist’s profile can also help you understand how they structure sessions, communicate, and approach care before you book.

The cost of Ohio therapy can vary, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who take your insurance, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and book directly when you’re ready. Nationally, Headway works with over 100 insurance plans, and you can confirm your coverage for your location and plan as you search, making it easier to find someone who matches your needs, accepts your insurance, and is ready to take new patients.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
