Feeling comfortable in our shoes is essential to a creative and self-fulfilling journey and
life. The struggle to reach out for support can be an obstacle that leads to isolation,
loneliness, anxiety, and depression and is often the first and most challenging step to
take. I congratulate you on your courage and willingness to imagine and hope for
changes that will help you be more comfortable in the shoes that you wear!
I have worked as a mental health practitioner for over 40 years and have encountered
many of the challenges that people face in their daily lives. Along the way, I have
discovered my own creative needs and now walk as a transgender therapist willing to
join you as a partner on a path to self-discovery. Giving voice to our hopes, dreams,
and desires is often an essential part of that journey, and I would be glad to join you as
a partner in your self-discovery and growth.

I’m Kendra Compton, a dedicated social worker with over 30 years of experience empowering individuals and families to thrive. My journey began with a heartfelt desire to make a positive impact in the lives of children and adults alike. Over the decades, I’ve honed my skills as a relationship-oriented therapist who truly believes in the healing power of genuine human connection. I blend evidence-based therapeutic techniques with a warm, compassionate style. My approach is always:
- Person-Centered – I meet each client where they are, honoring their unique strengths and experiences.
- Relationship-Focused – I believe trust and rapport lay the groundwork for meaningful change.
- Strengths-Based – I highlight what’s working well and build upon those successes.
Helping others bring me endless inspiration. Their courage, curiosity, and capacity for joy remind me daily why I chose this path. I grew up in a family of athletes and am an avid sports fan—whether participating, cheering from the sidelines (mostly my son) or watching a game on TV, I see sports as a powerful metaphor for teamwork, perseverance and personal growth. These values naturally weave into my therapeutic style, encouraging clients to set goals, lean on their support systems, and celebrate every milestone.
If you’re looking for a therapist who listens deeply, cares wholeheartedly, and partners with you every step of the way, you’ve come to the right place. My mission is to help you and your family write the next chapter of your story—one defined by resilience, hope, and stronger connections.
Feel free to reach out, and let’s start this journey toward healing and growth together.

Evidence-Based Practices are great Words. Real life takes adaptation, acceptance, and attunement. Most people come to therapy not out of brokenness, but because they are stuck on the Map of Life, in a cul-de-sac. Patti is able to meet online, or in person in Slavic Village and Barnesville. Partnering with LGBTQIA, Prescribers, and Recovery supports to help patients connect with care for their healthiest self.

Hello and Welcome! If you are seeking results, you have come to the right place! I am Heidi Ross, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in the state of Ohio and Licensed Professional Clinical Candidate in the state of Colorado.
A little about me. I received my Bachelor of Psychology in 2000 and my Master of Education in Community Counseling in 2002 from the University of Akron. For 9 years, I provided therapeutic counseling services to children and adults in outpatient, home-based, and school-based settings. For the past 11 years, I have provided outpatient mental health therapy to individuals, couples, and families of all ages, in person and via telehealth, in a private practice setting.
I am a very diverse therapist who feels it is very important to meet clients where they are at. I have an open-door policy regarding client population. We are all in this life together and may need assistance to get through! I provide high-quality care to older teens, adults, and couples in need through the convenience of telehealth. “It is my mission to help others help themselves, and to help them get through life’s obstacles!"

You might feel alone in this struggle but you don’t have to be. My work, which has been shaped by my own experiences of suffering and clinical training, is more than a career, it is a calling. I help people move from surviving to living with intention, calm, and confidence.
I have an undergraduate degree in psychology, and a master’s in clinical social work. I specialize in treating OCD and other anxiety disorders with Exposure and Response Prevention Therapy. I use this therapy because I’ve seen it help people begin living the lives that they want to live without fear being the driving force.
I also have a background in working with parents who are experiencing challenging situations. Whenever I work with children, I work with the caregivers as well in order to improve family unity and create lasting change.
I am very trauma-aware in that I recognize the role that past experiences have had in shaping who we are today. My philosophy is that these experiences don’t have to hold us back, but that healing is a journey to be embraced.
