Male Therapists in Ohio

Hi, I'm David. I'm a Licensed Independent Social Worker with Supervision Designation (LISW-S), and I believe therapy works best when you can show up as yourself without feeling judged, analyzed, or expected to have everything figured out. My approach is warm, straightforward, and collaborative. I enjoy working with adults who may feel overwhelmed, stuck, anxious, burned out, or simply trying to make sense of where they are in life and where they want to go next. Rather than telling you what you should do, I'll work along side you to better understand what's happening, identify what may be getting in your way, and find practical changes that fit your life. I value authenticity in the therapeutic relationship. You can expect compassion and respect, but also honest conversation, thoughtful questions, and a little humor when appropriate. Therapy doesn't have to feel cold or clinical- it can be a place where you feel understood while also doing meaningful work toward the life you want.

Hello! My name is Caleb Knorr, a counselor based in Steubenville, OH with over nine years of experience supporting people through experiences of complex trauma, social anxiety, anger management, grief, depression, and more. I also have a particular passion for working with teenagers, supporting them as they navigate the unique challenges of growing up. Whatever you're carrying deserves space to be heard without rush or judgment. I believe real growth comes not from battling difficult thoughts and emotions, but from self-compassion, connection to the present moment, and a defined commitment to enacting our values.

I'm Mario, I have been a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) in Ohio for over 10 years. I am blessed to have had the privilege to help individuals of many backgrounds work through various personal and professional issues. I take counseling very seriously and truly consider it a calling. From stress management and anxiety to depression and trauma; I am here to help.

Hello, and thank you for viewing my profile. My name is Dwayne Cornett and I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor. If you’re considering therapy, you may be wondering what to expect and whether you’ll feel comfortable opening up to someone new. I want you to know that my goal is to meet you where you are, listen without judgment, and take the time to understand your story. Therapy is a collaborative process, and we’ll work together to understand what you’re facing, build on your strengths, and find practical ways to help you move forward. Most importantly, I want you to feel that you have a safe place to be honest, be yourself, and be heard.

I’m M. Brandon Blue, MA, LPCC, NCC, and I work with clients who feel stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected, or uncertain about who they are becoming. My approach is warm, thoughtful, and honest. I help people slow down enough to understand the stories, beliefs, emotions, and relationship patterns that are shaping their lives. Many of my clients are navigating anxiety, depression, stress, grief, relational conflict, spiritual concerns, identity questions, or major life transitions. I do not believe therapy is only about reducing symptoms, although that matters. I also believe therapy is about helping people live with more clarity, agency, emotional honesty, and alignment. In our work together, we may explore what you have been carrying, what you have been avoiding, what matters most to you, and what kind of life you want to move toward. I bring a balance of compassion and directness, creating space for you to feel understood while also helping you notice patterns that may be keeping you stuck.

I am am easy going but no bs therapist. I want you to feel comfortable enough to open up about what is troubling you but not too comfortable that you forget why you are here. Therapy with me is a lot of heavy lifting on your part and my job will be to guide and support you along that journey. I specialize in PTSD Therapy through different modalities. It is not easy work but you can most definitely do it. Let's do it together.

If you are feeling tired, overwhelmed, and wondering when life will feel normal again, please know that hope and healing are possible. Whether you are navigating past trauma, relationship struggles, or the anxieties of everyday life, you deserve to live with confidence and eager anticipation for the future. You don't have to carry this weight alone. As your therapist, my heart’s desire is to partner with you, meet you exactly where you are, and create a safe, supportive environment for your growth. Over the years, I have had the privilege of working with a diverse range of clients addressing concerns such as addiction, anxiety, depression, relationships, and trauma. My approach to counseling is eclectic and holistic, utilizing evidence-based practices tailored to your unique journey. I incorporate modalities including: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) EMDR and Trauma-Informed Care Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) Additionally, if integrating faith into your therapy is important to you, I am happy to incorporate biblical principles into our work together. I offer flexible scheduling and look forward to walking alongside you on your journey to hope, healing, and restoration.

I’m not the kind of therapist who just nods and asks how that makes you feel. That’s not what most men need, especially when it feels like it’s falling apart. I work with men who are overwhelmed, burned out, or angry and don’t know why. Men who feel stuck in their heads, disconnected from the people they love, or like they’re always one step away from snapping. Some are facing divorce. Others are trying to be better dads, partners, or sons, but they often feel like they’re failing. Many were pushed into therapy by someone who cares about them. Almost all of them stay once they realize it helps. My approach is practical, honest, and built for the real world. I use tools from CBT, mindfulness, and solution-focused therapy, plus a good dose of common sense to help you understand what’s going on and actually do something about it. No psychobabble. No lectures. Just straight talk and strategies that work. If you're tired of feeling angry, lost, or numb, it's going to be okay. You're not broken, and you're not alone. This isn’t about becoming someone else. It’s about finding your footing and getting back to who you were before life got so heavy.

I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with more than a decade of experience helping adults manage anxiety, ADHD, trauma, addiction, anger, relationship stress, and major life transitions. I have worked extensively with first responders, military veterans, professionals, and individuals navigating high-pressure environments. I specialize in men’s mental health and provide practical, goal-oriented therapy focused on meaningful progress and lasting change.

To be honest, turning to therapy can be a difficult first step toward personal growth. The decision to turn to someone to help you look within for answers to life problems and challenges can be one of the biggest decisions a person can make. However, you are not alone. Therapy has helped millions create a safe space to heal and grow. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques to assist you to release your fears and drop the habits that keep you from living your best life. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I have served clients of all ages, and of various diverse backgrounds address their life challenges. Utilizing my therapeutic abilities, trainings and experience we will explore solutions to what troubles you most.

I am a compassionate and experienced therapist specializing in helping individuals, couples, and families navigate life’s challenges. With a focus on building strong relationships and fostering personal growth, I empower clients to address issues such as anxiety, depression, and trauma. I am a culturally competent therapist. My approach is collaborative and tailored, providing a safe space for meaningful change and lasting solutions.

I believe healing begins with intention, presence, and a good dose of courage. When I’m not working with clients, you’ll likely find me hiking through the woods with my two rescue dogs or throwing elbows in a Muay Thai gym. Nature, movement, and mindfulness are my anchors, and I bring that same grounded energy into a therapy session. Inspired by Viktor Frankl, “A man with a why can endure any how,” I aim to help individuals reconnect with their “why” in a world that often pulls us in every direction but inward. Life is messy, fast, and full of distractions. It’s easy to lose sight of who we are and what we need. As your therapist, I can do nothing to take away your pain; however, I vow to sit with you to endure it. I promise to do my best to assist you forthrightly, uncovering and fostering lasting resilience. I’ll offer a safe, compassionate space where we can work collaboratively to explore your story, uncover your strengths, and chart a course forward. The hardest part is getting started, so why not give it a shot? Come sit down, talk with me, and see if we can't get somewhere better than where we started.

I bring a broad and versatile clinical background shaped by work across medical, educational, correctional, community, and crisis‑response settings. My experience includes providing therapeutic support, behavioral assessment, and case management to individuals across the lifespan and across diverse levels of care. I have worked in skilled nursing facilities, offering mental health support to older adults, addressing adjustment, grief, cognitive changes, and emotional well‑being. My background in inpatient and outpatient addiction treatment includes facilitating groups, conducting assessments, supporting recovery planning, and helping clients build coping strategies for substance use and co‑occurring mental health concerns. In correctional settings, I have administered assessments, evaluated behavioral functioning, and supported individuals on probation and parole. This work has strengthened my ability to navigate high‑risk environments, provide trauma‑informed care, and collaborate with multidisciplinary justice‑system teams. My crisis‑focused experience includes MRSS (Mobile Response and Stabilization Services) and other crisis counseling roles, where I provided rapid assessment, safety planning, de‑escalation, and short‑term stabilization for individuals and families experiencing acute emotional or behavioral crises. I have also served in elementary, middle, high school, and college settings, supporting students with emotional regulation, academic stress, behavioral concerns, identity development, and social challenges. My work in educational environments emphasizes developmentally appropriate interventions and skill‑building for long‑term resilience. I have supported clients through the Ryan White Program, providing mental health services to individuals living with HIV, addressing stigma, medical stress, trauma, and holistic wellness. My experience with FEMA emergency shelter operations includes offering crisis counseling, resource coordination, and emotional support to individuals and families displaced by emergencies or natural disasters. Across all settings, my approach is grounded in compassion, cultural humility, and evidence‑based practice. I am committed to helping clients navigate life challenges, build coping skills, and strengthen their emotional well‑being, regardless of their background or level of need.

Hi there! I'm Ross (he/him), and I'm so happy you are making the steps to focus on your mental health. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who believes therapy should feel like a safe, affirming space where you can be your authentic self without judgement. Because of this I focus primarily on using affirmative therapy as my main modality. I specialize in working with young adults and adults, especially those in the LGBTQIA+ community, who may be navigating identity, relationships, anxiety, or life transitions. I also have experience with assisting those experiencing burnout whether from caregiving, work, or from other aspects of life! My approach is person-centered and strengths-based, which means I'll meet you where you are, honor your experiences, and support you in building the confidence and tools you need to thrive. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, identity development, relationships, or navigating life in general I'd be happy to support you and walk with you through that journey. I know it can be overwhelming to start therapy, but you don't have to go through this alone and I'd be honored to support you through those challenging times. Together, we'll focus on your strengths, explore what's meaningful to you, and help you move forward feeling more grounded, empowered, and understood.

Hi, I’m Rob. I hail from Steubenville, Ohio. Let’s jump right in. Life is hard- we all need a little help and support on the journey. I see myself as walking beside the people with whom I work. Some need to look into the past and process it, receiving a different perspective on it. Some have a specific goal in mind like decreasing anxiety by learning new skills in a short period of time. Others need a listening ear, with some insights sprinkled in. Others still, benefit from clarity and analysis. What do you need? I believe the interpersonal connection between counselor and client can be healing in and of itself. People are ones that hurt us, we're also the ones that heal each other.

I have had the privilege of working with with a broad range of clients for over 6 years in the counseling field. This experience has been beneficial and rewarding in my journey of understanding and providing strong clinical guidance towards a wide range of the population. While I am rooted in existential-humanistic theory, I love to take a multi-modal and flexible approach to psychotherapy, so that I can better serve each individuals unique psychological and emotional needs.

Are you feeling like your life or relationship doesn’t feel the way you wish it did? Is communicating to the people in your life, whether that is work, home, or love, a major challenge? Do you sometimes feel like you're not sure what the motivation is to get up the next day and do it all again? If the answer is yes to any or all of these, come see me. Whatever it is you’re facing we can identify and challenge it, create a new path forward if you're willing to put in the work. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with licenses in Ohio, Florida and South Carolina. I specialize in relationships and communication, dealing with family dynamics with specialized training in the Gottman method. I am a father of two which includes a step-daughter and special needs son, and have been married for nearly 21 years. I have particularly specialty in couples counseling where I am fair and even-handed, not taking sides. Christian counseling is available and part of my own personal journey. As I respect each individual's personal journey, it will only be included by your request. We all list the styles of therapy that as counselors we employ but at the end of the day you are coming to a therapist to be heard, be understood, and to be supported. I will do that for you without judgment or criticism. Let’s talk today!

My name is Gary Youssef and I have been providing mental/behavioral health services for children, adolescents, adults and families for 25+ years. I'm a licensed marriage and family therapist specializing mental/behavioral health issues impacting children and adults such as: career/school stressors, depression, anxiety, relational issues, parenting, family systems, medical challenges, healthy lifestyles, etc. I worked for 14 years as a therapist and program manager at the central outpatient psychiatry clinic at Rady Children's Hospital-San Diego which is ranked as one of the top 10 children's hospitals in the United States by U.S. News and World report. I have helped provide behavioral health services for over 10,000 children, adults and families throughout San Diego County. In addition, I helped support U.S. service members and their families while working as a military family life counselor at Naval Medical Center-San Diego in Pediatrics. I also volunteered at San Diego Unified School District and coached little league. I love being a father to my two awesome sons and I enjoy athletics and cooking in my free time. I am practical and eclectic therapist combining elements from theoretical orientations such as cognitive behavioral therapy and solution focused therapy to help clients of all ages. The vast majority of my clients report that they had a good experience working with me and describe me as experienced, professional, friendly, kind, helpful and effective.

Sometimes life is hard and sometimes life hurts, but there is always hope. Pain, loss, and suffering are real. I am willing to meet you where you are, to take the time to come along side you, and I am willing to help. Every client is different, and there is no single way to help everyone. That is why I take the time to listen to your story. I utilize clinically proven solution-focused therapies and cognitive behavioral therapies to help clients heal.

As a transpersonal therapist, I view therapy as a holistic healing container, in which I am a fellow traveler on the path to wholeness. My goal is to awaken the knowing that is already alive within you, guiding you to your truest self. I have been on a personal journey of self-discovery and awakening for over a decade through meditation, yoga, practicing massage therapy for 5+ years, deepening an understanding of healing through the body mind spirit connection. I arrived in the field of counseling as a culmination of my personal journey, from a desire to serve others on the path to healing and integration.

Hello, and welcome! I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker dedicated to helping individuals navigate life's challenges with compassion, respect and support. I believe that one of my primary jobs as your therapist is to help you feel happy and content with your life, with optimism to continue improving each day. I believe that therapy is most effective when you feel heard, respected and understood by your therapist in the most genuine of settings. I work with adults and adolescents experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship issues, stress, trauma, lack of motivation, self-confidence, and various emotional challenges. My approach is person-centered and will always be focused on what is best for you. I utilized Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy and Person-Centered approaches with each of my clients, with heavy emphasis on the power of our thoughts as they relate to our behaviors. Whether you're seeking support during a difficult time, working through long-standing behavior patterns or simply looking to improve your life, my goal is to provide you with a comfortable and motivating environment to help you become the best version of yourself. Taking that first step towards therapy is challenging and my goal is to ensure you are provided with a safe and nonjudgemental environment where you can express yourself openly and develop effective coping skills to move toward the life you desire.

The one question I get most often by clients and peers is: Why did you go into the counseling profession? My response is always the same. First, I have always had a desire to help people in a time of need or distress. I have felt this way as far back as high school. Secondly, I went through a debilitating anxiety disorder in my mid-twenties. I know first-hand the helplessness and desperation mental and emotional pain causes. I never condone a therapist sharing with a client, they know how the client feels unless they themselves have experienced a similar type of pain. Lastly, I believe in the power of counseling and the benefits it can offer. Counseling is very different from medicine. Counseling requires the client to be actively involved in the process of healing and growth rather than taking medication and waiting for it to work. Counseling empowers a client to by allowing them to see their progress towards the life they desire on a daily, weekly, and even monthly basis.

If you’re a veteran, a man struggling in a difficult relationship, or an adult who is tired of feeling stuck, you’re not looking for someone to simply listen and nod. You want things to change. I work especially well with people dealing with anxiety, anger, trauma, depression, relationship problems, low confidence, overthinking, addiction, or major life stress. My approach is practical and straightforward: we look at the thoughts, beliefs, habits, and circumstances keeping you stuck and start challenging them. I also work with men who feel overwhelmed, unheard, criticized, or uncertain of themselves in important relationships. Maybe you feel like you’re walking on eggshells, questioning yourself, feeling guilty for setting boundaries, or wondering whether you’re the problem. Counseling can help you rebuild confidence, establish healthier boundaries, and make decisions based on your own values rather than fear, guilt, or pressure. I’ve worked with thousands of clients and learned that people often have more strength than they realize. Sometimes you’ve believed lies about yourself for so long that they became part of who you see yourself to be. I’m Christian-friendly, but I meet everyone where they are. I listen closely, ask questions that make you think, challenge perspectives that may be keeping you stuck, and help you find solutions that work in real life. I don’t believe my job is to tell you how to live your life. I want our conversations to help you see your situation more clearly and decide what makes sense for you. I’m also a huge Ohio State Buckeyes fan. I’ll gladly work with Michigan fans, too…but I can't promise neutrality! :) For more about me, visit scarletude.com Bring your sense of humor into sessions. Therapy doesn’t have to feel stiff. We can be real humans in the room together.

I'm a dedicated professional with over 15 years of experience in the behavioral health field. My goal is to empower individuals to embrace their authentic selves and find comfort in their daily lives. I insist on personalizing my interventions to suit each individual's needs. I work mostly with young adults and adults (ages 18+). I believe that most of us would benefit from therapy at most points throughout our lives. We are social beings by nature and are simply not meant to struggle alone. We are our own worst critics so it takes an outside perspective of a loved one or a professional to help us recognize the strength amid chaos.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I believe that taking care of your mental health is one of the most important investments you can make in yourself. Reaching out for help isn’t easy, so I want to start by acknowledging the strength it takes to take that first step. I’ve worked with clients from many walks of life, but my primary focus is helping adults who are struggling with trauma, anxiety, depression, or relationship challenges find clarity, peace, and balance again.

I aim to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and emotions can be explored without fear of judgment, meaningful solutions can be discovered and habits can be positively structured or restructured for a desired narrative. It takes courage to seek out an uninhibited and more fulfilling life. I am here to support & empower you where ever you may be on that journey.

My name is Michael Starr, and I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker. I believe therapy is more than just problem-solving, it’s a place to rediscover who you are, heal what’s been hidden, and move forward with clarity and strength. I work with individuals, couples, and families facing anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, identity questions, and emotional overwhelm. My style is honest, grounded, and deeply respectful of the human experience. I use evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Trauma-Focused CBT, but I also hold space for what cannot always be explained, your story, your meaning, your growth. Clients often come to me feeling stuck, disconnected, or unsure of how to move forward. Together, we uncover the patterns keeping you there and build the insight, skills, and resilience to move through them. You won’t be rushed or judged. You’ll be heard, supported, and challenged when needed. You don’t have to have all the answers. You just have to be willing to start. Healing begins with one honest conversation, and I’m here to take that step with you.

Welcome! I’m glad you’re here. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where we can work together on the challenges you’re facing. Using evidence-based approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, I’ll help you explore thoughts, feelings, and patterns, build practical skills, and strengthen your resilience so you can move toward growth, balance, empowerment and meaningful change. I look forward to working with you!

"My greatest strength is cultivating an atmosphere of deep safety, authenticity, and genuine connection where clients feel fully seen, understood, and unjudged. Clinically, I integrate evidence-based frameworks—including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Solution-Focused Therapy—with specialized Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to process deep-seated trauma at its root. Furthermore, my specialized training as a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist (CSAT) candidate enables me to apply a rigorous, systematic framework to unravel complex behavioral patterns and addiction, offering clients both an empathetic space and a clear, structured roadmap for sustainable recovery."

As a Christ-centered therapist in Ohio, I specialize in supporting individuals through adjustments in life, emotional challenges, and personal growth. With 16+ years of experience, I offer compassionate, faith-informed counseling that honors each client's unique journey. My practice includes working with individuals to address depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and personal development, providing a supportive environment for exploring challenges, developing coping strategies, and achieving meaningful transformation.

Do you feel like you're running at full capacity with no room left to breathe? On the surface, you have it all together: the high-performing professional, the dependable parent, the supportive partner. Underneath, it's different. Anxiety that won't quiet. Depression creeping in. Burnout from roles that never let you clock out. Often it's all of them at once, tangled together until they blur. I bring an engineer's mindset to therapy. My background in Mechanical Engineering shaped how I see problems, not as isolated issues but as complex systems needing recalibration. Most high-achievers I work with are tired of surface-level talk therapy; they want results. Together, we analyze what's actually breaking down, whether it's depression, anxiety, career burnout, or family dynamics. We build a concrete evidence-based plan using tools such as DBT and EMDR to process trauma and tackle performance issues. For over a decade, I've guided clients through major life transitions, for example career pivots, new parenthood, and loss, toward lives rooted in purpose and sustainable well-being.
