Since 1976, Humanistic Counseling Center has been dedicated to supporting the well-being of individuals, couples, and families throughout Northeast Ohio. As a woman-owned counseling practice, we are proud of our long-standing history of empowering people to navigate life’s challenges with compassion, dignity, and hope.
With offices across the region, we’ve built a trusted presence in our community by focusing on what matters most: people. We believe that every person’s story deserves to be heard, respected, and valued.
That is why our approach to counseling is rooted in empathy, inclusivity, and client-centered care. Our therapists bring warmth, openness, and a deep respect for the individuality of each client we serve. We strive to create a validating space where people of all backgrounds and identities feel welcome and supported.
At Humanistic Counseling Center, our values guide everything we do. We honor human dignity. We practice empathy in every interaction. And we are committed to fostering personal growth in a way that feels meaningful and sustainable. Our work is not just about helping people overcome difficulties—it’s about empowering them to thrive.

Groups
Virtual DBT Skills Group
Humanistic Counseling Center is excited to be offering a virtual DBT Skills Group beginning on Wednesday, July 8, 2026. This virtual skills-based group for adults (18+) will focus on the development of several DBT skills such as emotion regulation, distress tolerance, mindfulness, and interpersonal effectiveness. This group would be helpful for individuals struggling with mood disorders; post-hospitalization (not presenting at immediate high risk); step-down from IOPs; and individuals who would benefit from skills training but cannot commit the time for a traditional IOP or other intensive program.
