Kelley Boole
Therapist, LSW
If your inner critic narrates every decision and "not enough" is the soundtrack of your day, therapy can change the volume. Kelley helps you see where the harshness came from (family, trauma, culture, past relationships) and replace it with a steadier, more accurate self-view. Using strength-based work, cognitive restructuring, and ACT-informed values clarification, you'll start treating yourself the way you'd treat someone you love.

Natasha Lacey
Counselor/Therapist, LPCC-S
If your inner voice is constantly telling you that you are not good enough, it can influence relationships, boundaries, decisions, and the way you see yourself. Therapy can help identify where these beliefs developed, challenge patterns of self-criticism and comparison, and build a more balanced and compassionate relationship with yourself.

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.
