Jerusha McClendon is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who has worked with many people experiencing mental health and addiction personally or in their family. Jerusha has 8 years of experience in the mental health field. She completed her Master of Social Work (MSW) at Ohio State University. Jerusha believes there is a need to identify and understand where the seeds of doubt and fear come from, as well as how to connect with the seeds of hope and purpose in the present and the future.
Her job is to facilitate the conversation and allow clients to gain insight into their condition and develop an action plan to change their lives. Jerusha’s superpowers include listening empathetically, relating easily to others, and critical thinking. She believes that all people have a purpose in life, and she wants to explore that purpose with clients.
Additionally, she strives to create a safe place in therapy so vulnerability can be examined and gains made. Therapy is a change process. Join Jerusha in this change process so that you can be a changemaker in your life and spread that change to others in your inner circle.
