Full Circle Mental Health LLC
Registered Social Worker, MSW, LISW
Career stress, chronic burnout, and professional misalignment can bleed into every single area of your life, leaving you feeling exhausted, stuck, and deeply disconnected from your purpose. Whether you are navigating a major professional pivot, dealing with toxic workplace dynamics, or experiencing intense imposter syndrome, I provide a tailored, virtual space across Ohio to help you untangle your professional identity from your human worth.
At Full Circle Mental Health LLC, I look at career counseling through an integrative, systemic lens. Work doesn’t happen in a vacuum; your professional stressors are often deeply intertwined with boundary issues, family expectations, or systemic pressures. Grounded in a strengths-based, action-oriented framework, we will draw from a diverse toolkit to help you find clarity and relief.
You do not have to navigate professional crossroads or the heavy exhaustion of burnout in isolation. Together, we will look at your whole picture, honor your resilience, and design a personalized, virtual roadmap that helps you reclaim your time, realign your goals, and step confidently into the next chapter of your career.

Gerry Letendre
Hypnotherapist, RPh, MBA, CHt
Career challenges often involve more than resumes or job strategies—they frequently stem from confidence issues, decision fatigue, fear of change, or internal blocks around identity and purpose. Hypnosis can help address the underlying mental and emotional patterns that influence career satisfaction, performance, and direction.
My approach to career-focused hypnosis is individualized and practical. Drawing on decades of real-world business and healthcare experience, including leadership, entrepreneurship, and executive decision-making, I tailor each session to the client’s specific goals and circumstances. Sessions may focus on increasing confidence, improving focus, overcoming procrastination, managing work-related stress, or clarifying next steps during periods of transition.
Clients often seek hypnosis during career changes, retirement transitions, leadership challenges, or when they feel stuck or uncertain about their professional path. Hypnosis provides a structured, supportive way to explore values, strengthen motivation, and develop a clearer sense of direction while remaining grounded and in control throughout the process.
Hypnosis is offered as a complementary, drug-free approach and is not a replacement for career coaching, psychotherapy, or professional advising. When appropriate, it can be used alongside other supports to help clients move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and purpose.
