Medical Mutual Therapists in Cleveland, OH

Something is not feeling right or going the way you would like it to in your life. Maybe its depression or anxiety, a relationship that has gone sour, maybe you feel stuck or confused, lost or just plain not content with how things are going. You would like a change, a goal to be reached, or to better understand yourself or someone else. I believe I can help with these types of challenges. Being a therapist is not just a job to me. The relationship of client and therapist gives me a feeling of profound awe and respect, and often love. I love my job and I love that maybe, just maybe, I can help you embody the change you are seeking.

Are you overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, or grappling with grief and loss? Do you seek understanding and healing from past traumas or current life transitions? You're looking for a compassionate guide to help you discover your true purpose and lead a more fulfilling life.

Life is a series of transitions. Even growth and positive changes require new skill sets and can be challenging to navigate. The process of counseling allows us to gain clarity about ourselves and our situation. It can be profoundly therapeutic to speak to someone who knows how to listen. The gains and insights achieved can be thrilling, but the process itself is hard work. I have been a Clinical Social Worker for 40 years in many settings. I have learned the nuts and bolts of chemical dependency, treatment resources and the path to acceptance of a mental health diagnosis.

Hello! My name is Ally McCarley. I am a licensed professional clinical counselor, registered art therapist, and registered yoga teacher. I believe that everyone is capable of healing and growth if given the right tools and support. I also believe that all parts of your self and your story deserve to be heard, honored, validated and sometimes challenged in a safe, supportive space. I have extensive training in many trauma informed modalities including Art Therapy, Yoga, Mindfulness and Meditation, Therapeutic Play, parts of self and EMDR and utilize a blend of these treatments depending on a client's particular needs and experiences.

I am an experienced Master's level Clinical Mental Health Therapist (LPCC) providing individual therapy and have a passion for working in integrated health.

Many of my clients struggle with dread, shame, anxiety, trauma, existential thoughts, as well as negative expectations for themselves and the world around them. Through a combination of evidence-based techniques, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based approaches, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), and a person-centered approach, I walk with my clients on the journey of overcoming these obstacles, toward achieving both their emotional and behavioral goals.

The weight of being alive, alone, hopeless, or stuck can feel unbearable or suffocating. Often we may feel that we know where we'd like to be in life, but don't know how to get there, or maybe we don't see a future at all. How does one overcome this sense of dread, or make sense from meaninglessness? It is my hope through authentic connections with others, we can discover what it means for each of us to live fully, thoroughly, and well. Conversations begin in an environment in which clients can feel safe, heard, and free to be themselves.

Finding a safe and inviting space can help you endure the distress of beginning an unknown journey towards healing. The right therapy can help you expand your capacity to tolerate discomfort and life's stressors. Together, we can learn to listen to your body's story, sit with difficult emotions and energy that your body has not metabolized. Together, we can reprocess past traumas that have shaped your core negative self beliefs that keep you from reaching your full potential.

Are you getting hooked and pulled around by thoughts and feelings? Are you struggling to contact the present moment? Do you want to engage with life and relationships in a way that feels aligned with your values? In today's fast paced (to put it lightly) world, it can be difficult to slow down and listen in for what you really need. Whether you're navigating life transitions, examining the impact of depression and anxiety, or looking to alleviate the influence of post-traumatic stress, therapy is an opportunity to explore your story and it's impact on your life.

My clients come to me because they're ready to do something different and they've realized they need help. A few words I would use to describe them; brave, persistent, and powerful. It takes a lot of courage to make the first step to finding a therapist and this is only the beginning of the work but it's one of the most important parts.

There is a reason for everything, and my place is in the service of others, to educate, encourage, and support. I have always had an open-door policy to those seeking help. I live by two rules: honor your word and treat others how you would like to be treated. I am willing to assist anyone who seeks help. My primary focus has been on helping the African American community deal with issues of identity, personality, relationship development, and emotional management.

It is my belief that every person possesses the potential to heal and grow. Despite this potential, we all face adversity and challenges in life, and we sometimes need help overcoming these challenges - that's what therapy is for. Together, we can work to identify stressors and challenges that you face, and match them with a treatment that meets your needs. I draw on skills from therapies including person-centered, cognitive-behavioral, and mindfulness-based approaches.
