Shelley Klammer
Counselor/Therapist, MTC, REACE, FOT, CHyp
Do you consider yourself spiritual, empathic, intuitive, creative, deep-thinking, or highly sensitive (HSP)? Do you sometimes struggle with emotional overwhelm, anxiety or depression? If you sense you have wounded inner child defense patterns from the past that block you from moving forward into the authentic self-expression of your needs and aspirations, I invite you into a therapy space where your originality, inner imagery, thoughts, and feelings can lead you towards greater wholeness, strength, and maturity.

Shannon Stern, LPC-S, LMHC
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S, LMHC
My clinical specialty is working with women who feel the weight of the world on their shoulders, feel like their life is at a cross roads, and are tired of spiraling. I aim to be the type of therapist I needed at points in life: present, real, patient, and a pinch of humor. My style in therapy is mainly collaborative, I enjoy meeting you where you are at and walking along side you. It's more empowering to support you finding the answers than just telling you what to do. You'll find my vibe is down to earth, nonjudgmental, warm, and encouraging. If you're interested in seeing whether we'd be a good fit, I'd be happy to schedule a free consultation to chat!

Andrea Kamins
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW, MSW
People often come to therapy feeling anxious, depressed, stuck or overwhelmed and aren't sure why. I specialize in treating anxiety disorders, depression, trauma/complex PTSD, and childhood emotional neglect (CEN). I particularly enjoy working with highly sensitive people (HSP), neurodiverse individuals, and adult survivors of childhood trauma. I enjoy working with adults age 21 and older who are motivated to create meaningful change in life and work, and deepen self-understanding. My clients enjoy my direct, warm style and sense of humor.

Cook Counseling and Consulting Inc.
Counselor/Therapist, LISW-S, LCSW-QS, CCTP
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.

AJ Guerrero
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
I'm alive, I'm awake and I feel gay, in the homosexual sense and the sense of joy. I’m a Filipina butch lesbian grown in Texas and brings the queer southern kindness with my presence. My ultimate goal is collective liberation, and that guides how I work with clients in supporting how situations, relationships and patterns of behavior and thoughts can align with their own personal values and goals
