Amy L Gould
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC-S, NCC, CCMHC
Breaking free from addiction can be genuinely freeing — and it's work worth doing with support. Whether you're fully committed to change or still wondering whether you need help, building your motivation is part of what we'll do together. Addiction is often a way of escaping other pain, so our work looks beyond the substance itself to what it's been protecting you from. Along the way, a relapse prevention plan becomes an important part of a lasting recovery.

Akron's identity as the 'Rubber City' — once the world capital of tire manufacturing — has given way to a post-industrial economy navigating transformation, and therapists here frequently address the long-term psychological effects of deindustrialization: economic stress, community grief, and the identity challenges of a workforce that has had to reinvent itself across generations. The city is home to the University of Akron and has a growing health sciences and polymer science sector, creating a more economically diverse population than its industrial reputation suggests. Summa Health System and Cleveland Clinic Akron General provide institutional mental health resources alongside a private therapy community concentrated in West Akron, Fairlawn, and the Highland Square neighborhood. Akron's significant Black community and the city's ongoing recovery from decades of economic decline shape a therapy culture in which community resilience and racial equity are recurring clinical themes.
