Veronica Bojerski
Counselor/Therapist, Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, LPCC-S and Certified Hypnotherapist, CHt
I believe that being healthy does not mean perfection... that CHANGE is a very personal process and that WELLNESS encompasses the body, mind and soul. As the owner of Season's Practice, inspiring change is my passion and it is the core of my entire team. I strive to motivate my clients to be the best they can be at any given moment...designing and executing a plan to become more aware, more focused and more open to growth. We will celebrate the tiniest of successes, but also focus on the journey of transformation ahead, never letting being "ok" or "stuck" get in the way of bigger dreams and possibilities. I wholeheartedly hope that our work together will pave the way for my client's in living a life on their terms after therapy has concluded.

Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
We are a Christian private practice focused on the integration of clinical excellence with Christ-centered truth. We help clients uncover the root of shame-based beliefs shaped by childhood wounds, trauma, and attachment patterns—and gently replace them with truth grounded in both psychological insight and Biblical identity.

Clients often share that they feel deeply seen, understood, and equipped with practical tools to experience lasting transformation in themselves and their relationships.

Ruth Ellerbusch
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, EMDRII
I have been a therapist for nearly 40years, which has taught me a great deal about human struggling and healing. I have developed an expertise in EMDR for the last 27 years. I believe in promoting the deepest, quickest, most complete healing possible. EMDR is the best avenue to achieve this.
38 Years Experience
Online in Akron, OH Ohio
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.
