Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Overcoming Hoarding & Creating a Life of Balance
Hoarding isn’t just about clutter—it’s often tied to deep emotional connections, anxiety, trauma, or difficulty letting go. At The Empowering Space, we provide compassionate, nonjudgmental support to help you understand the root causes of hoarding behaviors, develop healthier coping strategies, and create a more functional living space without fear or shame.
Using Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), exposure therapy, and emotional regulation techniques, we work together to reduce overwhelming feelings, improve decision-making, and build confidence in making changes at your own pace. Whether you or a loved one is struggling with hoarding, we’re here to help you regain control, find relief, and create a home environment that feels safe and supportive.
You deserve a space that brings peace, not stress. Let’s take the first step together.

Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in hoarding disorder, my treatment approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to the individual's unique needs. Through evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and exposure and response prevention (ERP), I work with clients to explore the underlying beliefs, emotions, and behaviors driving hoarding tendencies. By gently challenging distorted beliefs about possessions and facilitating gradual exposure to discarding items, we develop coping skills to manage urges and reduce clutter. Additionally, I emphasize skills training in organization, decision-making, and emotional regulation to support long-term maintenance of progress. Collaborating with clients, I create a safe and non-judgmental environment to foster insight, motivation, and sustainable change. My goal is to empower individuals to reclaim control over their living spaces, improve quality of life, and cultivate healthier relationships with their possessions.

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 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.
