Welcome, and come as you are. I believe meaningful change begins with understanding yourself on a deeper level. Many of the struggles we experience in adulthood, whether in relationships, self-worth, anxiety, trauma, communication, or life satisfaction, are shaped by patterns that developed long before we were aware of them. Often these patterns started as adaptations, ways of coping or relating that once helped us navigate our family or environment and made sense at the time. My role is to help you identify those patterns, understand why they exist, and create lasting change rather than simply managing symptoms.

Headway makes it easier to find support for overcoming addiction — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Finding addiction therapists in Cleveland starts with understanding what kind of support fits your needs. Addiction care can include help with alcohol use, substance use, nicotine dependence, gambling, relapse prevention, and co-occurring concerns like anxiety, depression, or trauma. As you compare therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match what you want to address. Some therapists use motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, or harm reduction-informed care. Some people may also work with a prescriber as part of their care team.
Cleveland has a strong mental health care community, with options across the city and nearby areas, but fit still depends on practical details. You may prefer an in-person office near work, home, or transit, while virtual appointments can make it easier to choose from more therapists across Ohio. Addiction support can also change over time, so it helps to look for a therapist who describes a nonjudgmental approach and experience with recovery that is not one-size-fits-all. Before booking, read bios for details about approach, session structure, availability, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.
Addiction therapy in Cleveland can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before starting care. Headway helps you search for therapists who are accepting new patients, review detailed profiles, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs after you enter your insurance details. From there, you can compare fit, choose in-person or virtual care, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or substance use and is in a crisis, immediately reach out to:
