April Tettemer
Art Therapist, LCAT
I have a unique approach to therapy in that my educational background has allowed me to be trained in classic therapy modalities like CBT and DBT along with Creative Arts Therapy methods. I like to implement creative arts and creativity in general to classic therapy practice as client is comfortable. In addition to my creative approach to therapy I keep in mind values that influence my practice. I treat the client as an equal and respect the client's perspective and lived experience. I keep a non judgmental therapy space and am open to all orientations and lifestyles seeking therapy to increase their life satisfaction and to decrease feelings like anxiety and depression. I am a therapist who also comes form a multicultural perspective and like to keep in mind the clients macro and microenvironments that contribute to their lived experience and beliefs.

Wayne Ayers
Psychologist, PhD
Psychotherapy can be challenging, but it is a rewarding process. Most people come in to discuss the problems in their lives. They often forget about what is going well, and what are their natural talents and abilities. I train and supervise psychologists at area hospitals. Because of this I am sensitive to ethical concerns: honesty, integrity and practicality. I strive to create a very kind and safe atmosphere where personal exploration is possible. Psychotherapy should be collaborative. I am vocal and active and give my clients ongoing feedback, inquiry and support.

Scene Creative Life Solutions
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LMSW
Diving into the intricacies of the human mind during my undergraduate years, my focus settled on the connection between trauma and creative expression. This passion evolved, leading me to pursue a Master's Degree at University of Southern California. I've had the privilege of aiding individuals from diverse backgrounds in conquering challenges like depression, anxiety, PTSD, trauma, addiction, self-worth issues, and relationship discord. My clientele spans the spectrum, including fine artists, members of the entertainment industry, writers, and performers.
What fuels my dedication is the belief that everyone has the capacity to overcome obstacles and fulfill their life's purpose. In our initial conversation, I'm confident my enthusiasm for helping individuals, fostering self-expression, and navigating life's hurdles will become apparent. I eagerly anticipate the opportunity to meet with you, delve into your unique needs, and collaborate on solutions for your concerns.

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.
