Tired of repeating your story at every appointment? 🫠
One of the biggest frustrations in mental health care is feeling like your providers are not on the same page.

At Strive, your therapist and medication provider work together as one coordinated team. That means a unified treatment plan built around you, not separate pieces that never connect.

Research shows that for many conditions, combining therapy and medication can be more effective than either alone. You deserve care that sees the full picture.

➡️ Ready for comprehensive mental health support all in one place?

✨Therapist Tip Tuesday with Dr. Kate✨

Have medications sitting around that you no longer need? Safe disposal matters more than many people realize. Unused or expired medications can pose safety risks in the home and can also harm the environment if they’re thrown away incorrectly.

A simple solution: use a medication drop-off location through the Drug Enforcement Administration. On the DEA’s website, you can search for authorized drop-off sites by entering your city or ZIP code, making it easy to find a safe disposal location near you.

Taking a few minutes to clear out old medications is a small step that helps protect your home, your community, and the environment.

Do you have medications at home that need to be safely disposed of? 💊♻️
We’re done letting depression stay hidden. 👏👏

#Depression has a way of hiding in plain sight, quietly taking up space in your life until it feels like just… the way things are. Heavy mornings. Low energy. Going through the motions. Sound familiar?

At Strive, we’re pulling back the curtain on what relief can actually look like. #Spravato is an FDA-approved treatment for major and treatment-resistant depression that works differently than traditional medications, and for many people, it’s been the shift they had been waiting for.

You don’t have to keep living behind the curtain.
If you’ve tried other options and still aren’t feeling like yourself, it might be time to explore something new. Reach out to our team to learn if Spravato could be the next step in your healing journey. 🩵
Enjoy a little morning dopamine release! 🙌💫✨

Sometimes comfort comes in the smallest forms.
These little crochet companions may be tiny, but they serve as gentle reminders that support can look different for everyone. For some, it is a grounding object during a tough moment. For others, it is something to hold when emotions feel big.

We believe emotional support does not have to be complicated. Tools that help you feel calm, safe, or regulated are always welcome here.

Whether it is a therapy skill, a conversation, or a tiny crocheted friend, support is support.

If you are ready for a space where your mental health tools are respected and encouraged, our team is here to help. Schedule with Strive today. 🩵
Your comfort matters more than you think. 👇

Our bookshelf is intentionally stocked with small things that make a big difference during #spravato treatments. 

Stationery for grounding, pens for drawing and eye masks and headphones for rest and regulation. Options that let you settle in and make your time here feel supportive, not clinical.

We intentionally create space for you to personalize your experience because regulation looks different for everyone. Whether it is focus, calm, or simply feeling more at ease, those details are part of your care.

Take what you need and make the space yours. We’ve got you. 🙌
✨Therapist Tip Tuesday with Giang✨

In a culture that constantly asks, “What did you accomplish today?” Choosing to play or doing something “unproductive” can feel almost rebellious.

But play isn’t about being childish, it’s about being regulated.
When we allow ourselves to engage in something simply because it’s enjoyable, we give our nervous system a chance to shift out of survival mode. Creative, spontaneous, low-pressure activities help reduce stress and create space for clarity, connection, and calm.

How can you give yourself 15 minutes of play this week? Do you already do this? 💌
Meet Natalie Sullinger, Licensed Professional Counselor at Strive CLE. 🩵

Natalie specializes in working with young adults navigating life transitions, major decisions, relationship challenges, anxiety, depression, and the often confusing process of discovering identity and values. If you are trying to figure out adulthood, independence, boundaries, or how to communicate assertively without losing yourself, this is her lane.

She earned her M.Ed in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Cleveland State University and has experience in college settings, group therapy, and private practice. Her own positive experience in therapy during undergrad ultimately shaped her career path and the type of clients she feels most connected to supporting today.

Natalie believes therapy does not have to feel stiff or overly serious to be effective. She values relatability, humor, sarcasm, pop culture references, and even memes as a way to process emotions. You are allowed to show up as yourself here. No code switching required.

One of her core messages is simple: no one has it all figured out. Social media just makes it look that way.
Outside of the office, Natalie loves horror movies, pop punk concerts, puzzles, sewing, bowling, and reading. She is also a proud pet owner to three cats and one dog. She values healthy communication, humor, and protecting her free time.
Her goal as a therapist is to empower clients to make decisions confidently and believe they have control over their own lives.

If you are a young adult who feels stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure of who you are becoming, Natalie would love to walk alongside you.

Schedule with Natalie at Strive CLE today. ✔️✔️
You get to choose who you become. 🙌
Breaking cycles takes more courage than repeating them. Growth is intentional. It is uncomfortable. It is layered. And it is possible.

At Strive, we help you process what happened without letting it define who you become. Through therapy and, when appropriate, collaborative psychiatry services and medication management, we create a treatment plan that supports both your mind and your nervous system.

You do not have to carry it alone.

If you are ready to do it differently, schedule with our team today. 👏👏
