Maureen Karol, LMHC
Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Mental Health Counselor
Hi, my name is Maureen and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, in Florida where I have been practicing for over 20 years in both the community mental health arena as well private practice. I have experience in mobile crisis, substance abuse, individual, couples and family therapy in addition to being a qualified supervisor for licensure for the state of Florida.
I would like to first give you an idea of who I am and how I tend to approach not only therapy but life in general. My motto is to help my clients “make life simple again” by taking the issues at hand and breaking them into manageable parts. Often times, people become overwhelmed by what is going on in their lives because emotion has skewed their perspective and has created anxiety and stress toward that issue/situation. I view my role as being a guide to helping the person reevaluate the concern/issue in a more objective way in an effort to break it down into manageable parts. When situations or concerns are broken down into objective manageable parts then the feelings of being overwhelmed dissipate and decision making becomes easier.
I view therapy as just a learning experience that at times can feel uncomfortable and at other times feel very empowering. I use humor a lot in my sessions because it’s not only fun but also allows for a sense of levity throughout the process. Also, please know that you are the driver of this bus and I am simply your co-pilot. What we talk about or don’t talk about is entirely up to you and it is my goal to always have an atmosphere of respect and safety so that you feel at your most comfortable to be able to share what is going on for you. I look forward to working with you and seeing where the bus takes us.

Emerge Counseling Solutions, LLC - Liz Overpeck
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, MA
Two of my deepest held beliefs that I get to live out in my work as a therapist is my belief in the inherent worth of each person and the unlimited potential that lies within all of us. Counseling with me is a shame free space. I thrive in being able to create safety in sharing, connection in being well understood, and assistance in helping people more fully express their experiences in life.

Amy Sherman
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, LMHC
With a strong background in anger management, anxiety and relationship issues, I am dedicated to helping others who are facing personal challenges that are impacting their lives. I have over 20 years experience and I am committed to help you on your journey to a better you and better life. Together, we will find just the right formula for overcoming the difficult issues that need resolving.
The goal of each session is to empower you so you feel in charge of your life, your decisions and your behavior. The insights you'll learn and the strategies you'll use will be effective in motivating your transformation. I utilize psycho-educational tools, like assignments, to reinforce the information presented and to encourage life-changes that would direct you towards your goals.
My approach to therapy is eclectic, with a strong emphasis on client-centered, cognitive/behavioral modalities.

Cook Counseling and Consulting Inc.
Counselor/Therapist, LISW-S
Cook Counseling and Consulting Inc. is a group of highly trained professionals providing mental health services based in Columbus, Ohio. We work with individuals, couples, and families across the lifespan, focusing on young adults. We are also experts in LGBTQIA+ and ENM/ polyamory. Many of our clients have found great success in many facets of their lives but struggle to manage their emotions and stress. We are particularly sensitive to those experiencing life transitions like moving, a breakup, changing jobs, graduating, or beginning a new relationship when self-doubt and increased anxiety and depression can emerge.
Our approach is rooted in evidence-based treatment that focuses on helping clients understand how their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are related so that they can begin making targeted and sustainable changes. Our clinicians blend person-centered therapy with cognitive-behavioral therapy, dialectal behavior therapy, motivational interviewing and acceptance, and commitment therapy. We help clients understand their physical and emotional responses to stressors and learn to problem-solve ways to introduce moments of calm, to choose to respond rather than react in the face of change.
Cook Counseling and Consulting Inc. focuses on ensuring our clients see real progress. We are warm, laid back, and affirming. We are sensitive to the influence of past experiences on present challenges, and we work closely with clients to reframe the narrative of their life in a way that increases self-confidence and self-compassion. Our priority in starting with a new client is ensuring that they feel safe, heard, and like an equal partner in the therapeutic process. We offer the convenience of remote sessions to help make therapy a core component of your self-care calendar.
