Therapists in Mentor, OH

I aim to provide a safe, healing, therapeutic space for all clients. I believe in self-care and developing skills or strategies to help individuals tackle any stressor they may be facing. I have experience working with children and adolescents as well as adults. My time as a clinician has allowed me to develop a passion for providing trauma informed services to clients through extensive training on sexual assault and intimate partner violence. I work from a therapeutic style that assists me in meeting the individual needs of clients I encounter. I also enjoy practicing EMDR therapy.

Are you feeling imbalance in your life due to stress, anxiety, depression, or trauma? I am focused on assisting you in achieving your best self and regaining your balance. I practice client centered therapy which creates a welcoming environment that is safe for you to explore your thoughts and feelings. I utilize a strengths-based, collaborative approach to support you in overcoming life's challenges that prevent you from reaching your goals. I have extensive training and experience working with survivors of sexual assault, domestic violence, trauma, and PTSD.

Now accepting new clients! No longer a wait list. I believe therapy should be tailored to each client because everyone has different needs. It's exciting to get to know each client and how I can be of help to them. I enjoy working with clients of all ages, and have a special interest in women's issues, young adults and couples. I have experience treating a variety of issues, including anxiety, depression, OCD, postpartum depression, and relationship issues. I am committed to upholding the highest ethical and legal standards, as well as participating in professional development to keep up-to-date with the best practices in the field of mental health counseling.

Please contact the office to see if I am currently accepting clients. Mental Health is a hard topic to discuss for anyone. We can often be embarrassed or scared and not know or understand what we are feeling. My role as a counselor is to assist you in finding the light at the end of the tunnel. I am here to provide you with support in a non-judgmental way and to help you meet the goals you have for yourself. In the collaborative space we create together, I invite you to show up for the work of healing whatever you identify as your focus for our time together.

Presence. Compassion. Intuition. What do you look for in a therapist? Hi, I'm Chris Vavro, owner of A Space for Healing. I believe that healing is a co-created process between you and I. You are unique and I honor that by holding the space for you to shift into more and more of who you are. To a place where you realize that you have value-in this very moment, without doing anything. That there aren't 'versions of you' when you look back, simply a beautiful, complicated person who no longer needs shame. That what happened to you doesn't mean anything about who you are. Lofty goals?

You know there's something wrong but aren't certain how to fix it. Or you know you "should be" doing certain things but can't quite seem to manage to do them. You've tried a lot of different things, some of them helped a bit and some of them didn't seem to help much at all, or made it even worse. I help individuals who want to feel satisfied with their lives but instead feel overwhelmed, out of control, and stuck in the same place no matter what they do.

I find passion in empowering others to help them develop skills in order to become the best person they can be. I believe in helping clients identify and use their strengths to help overcome difficulties, whether it is struggling with managing life stressors or chronic mental illness. I have provided counseling to children and adolescents with symptoms of anxiety, depression, oppositional defiant disorder, and ADHD. I enjoy working with clients in the LGBTQ+ population, and I also have had training in trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy.

Currently accepting new clients. I believe every individual deserves access to therapy. Life can get stressful and overwhelming at times. Sometimes we need a safe and comfortable environment to express our thoughts and feelings. I believe every client is unique and has different needs. I enjoy building a therapeutic relationship with my clients to learn what my clients want therapy to focus on. I value every clients confidentiality and ensure every client is treated with dignity and respect.

Welcome! I'm Serena and I am a licensed independent social worker specializing in treatment of children and adolescents. I have a wide range of experience working with at risk youth in settings such as community mental health and inpatient psychiatric care. My goal in therapy is to be the person for clients that I was never able to have as a child. I utilize primarily DBT, CBT, and reality based therapeutic modalities to assist clients with emotion identification/regulation. I have experience working with complex trauma and understand the difficulties of all involved while trying to navigate trauma responses/behaviors.

There are times where our struggles and emotions can make us feel out of control and become difficult to manage on our own. We have so many experiences throughout our life that, at times, can be difficult to heal from. Navigating adulthood can be overwhelming and can often leave us feeling lost and uncertain. Our bodies and minds go through many seasons of life - accepting ourselves throughout that journey can be hard. I hope to help create a safe, nonjudgmental space to allow you to manage your emotions, develop a sense of purpose, and build upon your internal resiliency.

At Serenity Counseling, our hope is to provide quality care for your psychological and emotional well-being. Our priorities include having a relaxed and calm environment, caring non-judgmental therapists, and meeting the client where they are at and alter our approach based on their needs. We have therapists who specialize in a variety of concerns. We see clients of all ages. Couples and marital counseling, young adults, anxiety, depression, ADHD, substance use, and trauma are all some common concerns our therapists work with.

Reaching out for help can be an overwhelming process that requires you to be courageous and vulnerable. When you are feeling sad, disconnected, hopeless, and uncomfortable in your own skin, the obstacles you face may seem hard to overcome. You have now taken the first step towards wellness and it is no longer out of your reach. I am glad you are here, especially if you may be feeling stressed and trapped in a world that just does not understand.

I Am Ready, Counseling Services is a private practice offering individual, couples and family therapy. I specialize in anxiety and depressive disorders.

Hope starts here. Are you feeling sad or stressed? Do you experience mood swings but don't really know why? Maybe you've been withdrawing from family, friends, or activities that used to breathe light into your life. If you have been feeling depressed, have found yourself more angry or hostile than normal, or suffer from low energy or problems sleeping, you may have an untreated mental health issue. Mental health impacts your way of thinking, relating to others, and overall quality of life. Many issues have been identified and defined including anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress (PTSD), etc. You don't have to suffer anymore.

Your strengths and needs are as unique as your reasons for seeking therapy in the first place. This is why I take a conversational, client-centered, humanistic approach to therapy. This approach incorporates elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy. I truly believe there is no problem too small or large to address in therapy, and in fact, one does not need to be experiencing a specific issue to benefit from the opportunity for personal growth counseling offers. No matter what circumstances may have brought you here, please accept my invitation to reach out today.
