Pamela Saladino
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, M.S., M.A., LMHC, CHP
I look forward to meeting you and to begin our work together! So that you get an idea of who I am-First, I love the art of helping and counseling! I am a lifelong student of psychology, philosophy, metaphysics and spirituality, with a great love and respect for the natural world. I consistently read and study any number of different subjects to enhance/broaden my understanding, and seek to maintain curiosity in life, while appreciating how difficult life on this planet can be for us, at times. I will use my deep listening skills, sense of presence, specialized techniques, education, a variety of personal and professional experiences, advanced studies, empathy, intuition, and insight to help you. I appreciate all stages of life-beginnings, endings and the points in between-I've served as a birth helper, raised 4 children, and was a hospice bereavement counselor for many years. I have a strong Jungian influence. Certified clinical hypnotherapist. Qualified Supervisor, Florida.

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.

Dr. Adam Shafer
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
I do my best to listen in the service of understanding and provide thoughtful responsiveness, which I have found helps my clients connect to their inner life and with others. Using gentle honesty and compassion, I value autonomy and collaboration to help people feel less alone while finding a sense of purpose within their lives and in the world.
