Thank you for taking the time to view my bio! I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in the State of Ohio and have been practicing since 2004. I worked in the college setting beginning in 2004, working with both traditional college age students as well as adult students. I have been working in the online sector of therapy exclusively, since November 2017 doing individual counseling. My therapeutic work centers on helping clients develop self-love, improve communication, and navigate challenging life transitions. I offer a supportive, non-judgmental space where individuals can explore their deepest concerns—from social anxiety and workplace stress to intimate relationship challenges and personal identity. My approach is compassionate and tailored to each client's unique journey. I specialize in addressing a wide range of emotional experiences, including depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, and personal growth. My goal is to empower you to discover your inner strength, build resilience, and create meaningful, positive change in your life. Together, we'll work collaboratively to help you develop effective coping strategies and move toward greater emotional well-being. I hope that I can be a good fit for you and look forward to working with you through this process!

My name is Froogh Khatibloo and I am a Licensed professional Clinical Counselor with over 20-years of experience providing psychotherapy/counseling, harm reduction services for adolescents and adults in State of Ohio and I am happy to share the wealth of knowledge I have gained during my decades in community mental health. I am currently listed as network providers of multiple health insurance company panels as well as EAP plans, Medicare, Medicaid, and Bureau of Workers Compensations. I offer therapy for individuals or couples that are experiencing life transition and enjoy the challenge of working with wide range of people and their concerns. I do however, have some specific interest and areas of expertise. I am trained in and practiced from harm reduction perspective, meeting people where they are at their struggle with alcohol and substance abuse concerns and helping them set their goals for change. I blend cognitive behavioral technique, interpersonal therapy, and mindfulness practice to address depression, anxiety, and mood disorders with a exploitation of the underlying cause of distress. I prioritize creating safe spaces where survivors access their natural resilience promote healing to recover from trauma and loss. I use motivational interviewing techniques to help people get unstuck from the patterns that trouble them most and make desired changes in their lives to change their habit and setting their goals. I help people with employment and career consultation to recover from job loss, change careers, deal with workplace, apply for disability, and address creative blocks. I provide an accepting space for discovery in which people can explore their identity by learning who they are, where they are going, and who they want to be. I teach interpersonal skills and copying tools to help people to learn anger management and conflict resolution, so that they can communicate assertively and improve their relationships. I welcome everybody and I am particularly interested in inviting those who may not feel as comfortable in all treatment spaces: members of LGBT communities, people wanting to talk about size acceptance, people of color, and members of marginalized groups. Additionally, I am able to provide clinical supervision for unlicensed mental health professionals, graduate students, and consultation for peers seeking additional assistance.

I am also a Christian, husband, father, and veteran. I hold Doctoral Degrees in Education, Religious Sciences & Counseling, a Master's of Social Work, and a Bachelor's in Psychology. I enjoy and look forward to bringing practical experience, education, insight and wisdom into the therapeutic relationship in order to help the people I work with overcome challenges and grow in healthy ways. In our first session together, here's what you can expect: The key to a successful therapeutic relationship and positive outcome is building a good relationship. This starts with getting to know each other and building trust. You can expect me to put 100% of my focus and effort into listening to you and understanding what you have to say about yourself and what you are experiencing. After a brief introduction, I will ask you open ended questions and be eager to answer any questions you may have.

What I specialize in: Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) My preferred approach to using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is Client centered, holistic, and integrates the utilization of a strengths-based and trauma informed perspectives. When I am working with my Clients, I seek to integrate one or more of the following therapeutic tools: cognitive restructuring and or reframing, guided discovery, positive psychology, positive mindset building, journaling and or thought recording, relaxation techniques, goal setting, activity scheduling, behavior activation and or modification. In addition, a special emphasis is placed on developing a holistic comprehensive self-care routine for all Clients and providing education to Clients as to why self-care is critically important and foundational to personal growth and successful therapeutic outcomes. In my experience, CBT is an evidence-based approach that is effective for a multitude of presenting issues, including anxiety disorders, PTSD, depression, phobias and more. CBT is a structured, goal-oriented therapy that empowers Clients to take an active role in their healing and or growth process. The collaborative nature of CBT fosters a strong therapeutic relationship where the therapist acts as a guide and coach through the process of Client centered and therapeutic change. Christian Counseling Christian counseling seeks to integrate the wisdom, principles and evidence-based therapeutic practices with both the teachings and principles found in the Bible and Christian faith. This means looking at mental health challenges through a Biblical and Christ centered worldview and understanding how faith can be a source of healing and a foundational corner stone of strength for my clients. My approach to Christian Counseling integrates evidence-based practices, psychotherapy, psycho-educational components, positive psychology and a strong emphasis on building a healthy therapeutic alliance. My clinical experience had demonstrated that scripture and the Client's personal faith, is a strength and serves as a foundation for achieving positive therapeutic results, achieving personal goals, and resolving life's most difficult challenges. Family Therapy My approach to family therapy is a highly personal and culturally informed family systems approach. This approach from my experience is necessary in that each family member is an individual and their challenges and presenting issues must be met in order to address the greater family challenges and issues. My comprehensive approach to family therapy may involve one or more of the following techniques: psychoeducation, conflict resolution, behavioral modification, supportive family therapy, brief solution focused therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy and group specific work such modeling, role play, and communication skills etc. Positive Psychology The use of positive psychology is critical and necessary for treating mental health challenges and fostering personal growth. Integrating positive psychology into all aspects of practice is incredibly powerful and life changing for Clients. Positive psychology is the most significant and powerful tool for client's to fundamentally change into the person they want to become. In my experience, positive psychology paired with cognitive behavioral therapy has been the most effective way to help the people I am honored and grateful to work with change the way they think about and experience the challenges life puts in their path. Couples Counseling As a therapist specializing in couples therapy, I bring extensive experience in helping partners navigate challenges, strengthen their connection, and foster healthier relationships. With a compassionate and non-judgmental approach, I guide couples through the issues such as communication break downs, trust concerns, intimacy struggles, and conflict resolution. I focus on using evidence-based approaches such as Gottman based communication skills and principles, positive psychology, psychodynamic modalities (exploring and defining the root of feelings) and many more that are tailored to each person individually in the relationship to foster and or rebuild emotional bonds, enhance mutual understanding, build emotional intelligence and create lasting positive change. I've successfully supported couples in deepening their intimacy and resolving their conflicts, tailoring each session to their unique needs and goals. Whether you're seeking to rekindle your spark or address specific challenges, I am here to provide a safe and supportive space to help you, and your relationship grow and thrive!
