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. Kahina Beasley
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Let’s work together on finding solutions for your life. When we run into challenges, it can be so tough to figure out the best plan to move forward. Sometimes we just need that extra boost or coping strategy to get where we want to be. Through therapy, I provide my clients with tools to cope effectively when adjusting to these life hurdles or changes. I help you find strengths you may not realize you have, by tapping into what you may be unable to see during your time of stress, depression, or anxiety. Together, we'll collaborate to determine what steps would work best for you to come out of your life transition feeling empowered and psychologically healthy. My therapy model is short-term and solutions-focused, aimed at reaching steps toward your goals as soon as possible to begin finally feeling like your best self again.
Separate from therapy, I also specialize in psychological assessments for children and adults. Testing is typically for school-based concerns, such as learning disabilities, behavior challenges, ADHD, or gifted eligibility. My reports help as needed for clients to receive accommodations in class/standardized exams and meet their life goals.

Dr. Roslyn Phenix
Pastoral Counselor/Therapist, LCPC, (Licensed Clinical Pastoral Counselor)
FaithWorks Christian and Family Counseling is a great practice because it is founded upon not only natural ways to help clients heal. This practice offers counseling from a Christian perspective. This means during session, I find ways to include God's Word. For example, upon client's comfortablility, I do offer prayer before and after each session. In session, I point client's to ways that they can receive their healing through making sure to include the wisdom of God in their everyday lives. My motto is that self care along with divine care makes for a prosperous life. When we have both of those things going for us, we can't go wrong. My approach is through the Word of God as well as through solution focused therapy. Solution focused therapy means that I am not the only one providing solutions to the problem. My clients have a hand in brainstorming ways they think they can improve their lives. Therefore, my practice is set up to partner with clients in their healing. My clients know we are in this together. My practice is also run on a negotiable fee scale. My fees are only $80 per session, but I cut that in half if the full price is unaffordable. I do not believe in breaking the bank for anyone, and I don't want people to feel that they can't enroll in therapy due to not being able to maintain the cost of it.
