Psychodynamic Therapy
Jaclyn Davis
Psychologist, PhD
I believe in the transformative power of the therapeutic relationship to help you heal from past wounds and build more fulfilling connections in the present. When the path feels dark or uncertain, I offer insight, warmth, and steadiness—helping you develop a more compassionate relationship with yourself. Together, we’ll explore how your past experiences shape your present patterns, creating space for deeper self-understanding, emotional healing, and growth.
My passion lies in walking alongside people as they navigate life’s transitions, relationship challenges, and questions of identity. Whatever brings you to therapy, you don’t have to face it alone. I’m here to support you in making sense of your experience and moving toward a more connected and meaningful life.

Psychodynamic Therapy
Dr. Andrew Bingman
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist, PsyD
Many people struggle with the belief that they are not good enough, and they subsequently suppress parts of themselves that they fear will alienate them from others. My primary task as a therapist is to create a safe and validating environment in which you can feel free to be your whole self, without fear of rejection or judgment. My goal is to recognize, understand, and honor each part of you, especially the parts that feel most vulnerable.

Psychodynamic Therapy
Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon
Psychologist, PsyD
We often think of ourselves as what we are given, but instead it's what we make of what we're given. I am guided by a view of identity as a creative narrative and see distress as often occurring when we feel stuck in that creation, bound to selves and lives that aren't working. The goal in therapy is not only to understand how and why we got stuck, but to reengage with our creative and imaginative selves, allowing us to explore new facets of ourselves and experiment with new ways of being. In many ways, we reduce suffering by reintroducing play in our worlds.

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.
