June Dean-Villatoro
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Hi, my name is June Dean-Villatoro and i'm a licensed therapist who specializes in helping anxious overachievers, people pleasers, and those navigating difficult life transitions learn how to self-advocate, set boundaries, and manage their mood and anxiety. The majority of my practice focuses on providing clients with the tools they need to manage Anxiety, OCD, Trauma, and Depression. I have a direct, humorous, and holistic approach that utilizes the following modalities: CBT, DBT, ERP, Prolonged exposure therapy, and Psychodynamic.
I am a certified CBT and ERP therapist, and I am passionate about helping my clients regain their power and control over their life and symptoms so that they can heal from the past and live a fulfilling life.
I have first-hand experience navigating life's challenges as a BIPOC. My passion for therapy stems from my own interpersonal struggles navigating mental health in a culture and community that did not recognize or understand mental health as a whole. Through my own mental health journey, I grew passionate about helping other BIPOC find healing.

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.
