Thank you for visiting our site as you consider what’s next in your mental health journey. REAL is an outpatient mental health private practice serving the Columbus community through face-to-face office and telehealth visits and the rest of Ohio through telehealth. Our mission is to provide quality, effective mental health services through individual, couples, and group counseling and psychotherapeutic services. Our practice will be open to all mental health concerns and all ages. Furthermore, being inclusive is important to us. One way we signal inclusivity is that we accept all insurances of which we’re aware and with whom we’re allowed to network, including Ohio Medicaid and Ohio’s Medicaid products. To understand us better, let’s look more closely at REAL.
REAL
R~ Real-relationships
No matter what orientations our therapists employ, we are grounded in the idea of developing real relationships and entering therapeutic relationships that matter to and for the client. By reducing systemic and elitist barriers, you will feel empowered to mend. We’ll walk with you on your therapeutic journey, providing subtle guidance and feedback that helps you grow.
E~ Embracing differences
Humans are complex beings. We embrace complexity by leaning into the endless possibilities of how the world affects clients and how clients affect the world around them. In other words, our mission is to employ open-minded and curious staff who actualize life-long learning, especially as it relates to becoming more effective at providing mental health services.
A~ Affirming clients
We understand how marginalization and systemic biases, prejudices, and discriminations have and will result in trauma and mental health issues. Gender suppression, racial oppression, ethnic/cultural biases, LGBTQIA2S+ marginalizations and neurodiversity prejudices are REAL and being affirming is at the core of who we are and the soul of our mental health practices.
L~ Long-lasting change
As a mission, we want our clients to experience long-lasting change. Our aim isto help you mend. We want you to leave therapy stronger and to grow in ways you could see and other ways you didn’t envision. We want to be the last mental health professional you’ll choose in your life.
