Andrew D. Sapp
Psychologist, PhD
I love helping young people think about their future, all the possibilities they have, setting goals and planning their steps. I am well versed in career options from college, vocational / technical schools, associates degrees, and military options. Sometimes just discussing your hopes and dreams with someone can be clarifying. I have also been trained in career testing, interest surveys, Strength Finder, etc. I was also an entrepreneur, business owner, Executive and CEO with 150 employees. I have experience in other industries not just my own.

Career Counseling
Debra Nelson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Our careers are not static, but ever-changing. Sometimes we find ourselves at a cross-roads and we aren't sure whether or not to make a big career change. Other times we are really happy in our careers but are struggling interpersonally with supervisors or co-workers. We spend so much time at work that if it isn't a healthy environment for us, it can lead to burnout and stress. By learning new strategies and coping skills, you can feel more balanced and fulfilled at work.

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.
