Couples Counseling Therapists in Ohio
I try my best to meet my clients where they are at in their journey with mental health and grief and be as honest, understanding, and genuine as possible to build trust and safety in our therapeutic relationship.
Most of us will experience significant loss, grief, trauma, and mental distress at some point; however, we often feel that we have to go through it alone. While our world stops, everyone else seems to continue moving, and that can feel isolating and overwhelming. Whether you just need someone to be with you and listen with empathy and without judgment, are looking to learn skills to feel back in control of your mental well-being, or want to grow to improve your relationship with yourself and others, my hope is to provide these to you in a safe and inviting environment.

Do you feel that one of the most important aspects of counseling is relationship building and establishing trust? I like to meet my clients where they are and help them to grow from there. Counseling is a safe place to be vulnerable, express feelings of fear or sadness, and a place to plant seeds of hope and develop self-efficacy and peace. Counseling can involve a great deal of self-reflection and I also like to work from a goal and solution focused approach. I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker Supervisor with a master’s degree from Case Western Reserve University.

Unresolved pain often drives depression, anxiety, and relationship issues.
Empowering Women and Men attain a Purpose-Driven Life: Life is a journey filled with highs and lows—each experience, whether a blessing or a trauma, shapes us in profound ways. Yet, when past wounds remain unhealed, finding safety within ourselves, our relationships, or the world around us can feel impossible. Anxiety, trauma, and relationship challenges often follow. As your therapist, I offer a compassionate, non-intrusive space where healing can begin, allowing you to live the meaningful life you deserve.

I primarily work with couples and families with a range of issues.
Hi! Whether you have been in therapy before or you have been contemplating therapy for a while now, I know talking to someone new about your family or relationships can be a bit scary. Let me remind you to take a deep breath, as you are already halfway there! As you are searching to find a therapist who fits best for you and your family dynamic, I would be glad to help you along the way.

My name is Cary Sanders, and I am an LPCC-S. I look forward to learning your stories, helping you recognize your strengths, and together finding tools to allow you to reach your goals. I have been able to support individuals who have struggled with trauma (including sexual trauma), self-worth and identity questions, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and general adjustment to life’s difficulties.

The majority of my experience comes from couples and clients working through trauma, but I can work with a variety of clients such as families or individuals.
As a therapist I believe my role is to give clients the opportunity to look at themselves and their problems in order to accept themselves or make meaningful changes in their lives. I am a new therapist in the Barberton/Akron area who is working towards a Masters in Mariage and Family Therapy from the University of Akron.

One of my greatest joys and honors as a therapist is to play a small part in a client's journey toward hope, recovery, repair, and achieving the satisfaction in relationship and their quality of life.
I help clients work through challenges compounded by the stress of everyday life and recognize that life transitions can be inevitable and so difficult. My experience with addiction counseling informs a compassionate approach for those that find addiction related behaviors resurfacing with the stress of parenthood. I work with fathers navigating the exciting and equally demanding roles of caregiver and partner in the parental relationship. My work with couples aims to enhance relationship satisfaction and bolster conflict resolution through effective communication, negotiation skills, and meeting/supporting one another's needs.

With dedication, humor, and perseverance, we can address your relationship struggles, trauma, or addiction and help you to grow into a happier, more vibrant version of yourself.
Something in your life isn’t working right now. Maybe it’s a close relationship where you don’t feel seen or understood. Maybe something happened that you can’t get out of your head, and every time your mind wanders back to it, you feel a tightening in your chest. Maybe you’re doing something that you know is holding you back, but you just can’t seem to stop. Whatever it is, something in your life is keeping you from feeling at peace and excited to wake up in the morning. Take a moment and think about what your day would look like if you felt seen in your relationships and free from trauma and addiction. Let's make that reality.

I enjoy helping couples and families adjust to change, manage conflict, and develop coping skills to deal with life stresses and challenges including life cycle transitions, grief, and acculturation.
Life isn’t what you thought it would be. It can be overwhelming and we can all feel disconnected from our family, our relationships, even ourselves. Perhaps you are struggling with family issues, marital conflict, or life stresses. These can affect our relationships, the way we parent, and even our work performance. I am a marriage and family therapist who can help you explore and change the patterns and behaviors that keep you from feeling connected and building quality relationships.

I like to use an empathetic, anti-oppressive, client-centered approach to support clients toward their own identified goals. As a member of the queer community, my goal is to create a safe and affirming space for people of all sexualities, relationship types, and gender identities. I am also a former collegiate athlete, and my experience with this has allowed me to provide support to student athletes.

Individuals thrive toward their potential when their relationships are healthy and supportive. Being in healthy relationship is how we, as individuals and families, are sustained in the long term. Relationships that are healthy are consistent, have structure, are interdependent, and provide instruction that fosters individual and collective resiliency and progress.
When relationships are in crisis, individuals must be guided toward identifying the behaviors and attitudes that bring on conflict. When this awareness is achieved, change is possible. Here, attention to individual and relationship needs is equally important in the therapeutic process.
