There is a treatment for depression that most people have never heard of and it is changing lives in a way traditional antidepressants simply cannot. Spravato is an FDA approved nasal spray designed specifically for treatment resistant depression, meaning it did not respond to at least two antidepressants. It works differently than anything most people have tried before and for a lot of patients the results have been life changing. It is covered by most major insurance plans and available right here at Strive CLE Counseling with a clinical team by your side the entire time. If you or someone you know has been struggling with depression without lasting relief, this is worth knowing about. Reach out through our website to find out if Spravato is right for you.
It’s kinda chic to actually love your job. To set up your space with intention. To sit across from someone and know the work you’re doing is going to change something for them. Meet Rachel Gaydosh, MSN, APRN, CNP, PMHNP-BC — our Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Adult ADHD Practitioner. She’s here, she has immediate openings, and she is ready for you. striveclecounseling.com 🤍
Getting a teenager to willingly come back to therapy is not a small task. In teenager language that is basically a five star review. 😂 The hardest part of teen therapy is usually just getting them through the door the first time. Once they feel genuinely heard and understood in a space with zero pressure to perform or pretend, something shifts. And that shift is where the real work begins. If you have a teen who has been struggling and you have been wondering whether therapy could actually help, our team at Strive CLE Counseling works with adolescents and we know how to meet them where they are.
Somewhere along the way rest became something we had to earn. It was never supposed to be that way. You do not need to justify taking a break today. You do not need to be productive enough to deserve it. Rest is not a reward. It is a requirement. From our team to yours, happy Labor Day. We hope it is exactly what you need.
Years of higher education and the floor remains one of the most effective tools! 😂 Grounding is a real and genuinely helpful regulation technique and our therapists are leading by example. If your nervous system has been running on overdrive and you are looking for support that goes a little deeper than laying on the floor, our team at Strive CLE Counseling is here. Reach out through our website to get started.
Really really want relief? A trusted partner? Medication that actually works? Options you didn’t know existed? Hope? Let our team help you find those answers today. 💙
If you have been following the Lindsey Clancy case and it has brought up something in you, we want you to know that what you are feeling makes complete sense. #Postpartum mental health struggles do not always look dramatic. Sometimes they look like not feeling connected to your baby and not understanding why. Feeling like you are just going through the motions. Crying without knowing the reason. Feeling irritable or rageful in ways that do not feel like you. Intrusive thoughts that scare you. Not being able to sleep even when the baby is sleeping. Feeling like everyone would be better off without you. Feeling like you are watching your life from the outside. These are not signs that you are a bad mother. They are signs that you need and deserve support. Postpartum depression and postpartum psychosis are real medical conditions and they are far more common than most people talk about. If any of this resonates, you do not have to figure it out alone. Our team at Strive CLE Counseling is here to support you. And if we are not the right fit for what you need, we will make sure you get connected to someone who is. You are not alone in this. Reach out through our website, drop us a dm or call us at 440.201.4488@

Therapy is not just for crisis moments. It is for anyone who is ready to understand themselves better and actually do something about it. Whether you are navigating anxiety, relationship patterns, generational cycles, or just a general feeling that something needs to change, our team at Strive CLE Counseling is here for all of it. Reach out through our website to get started.
Your brain can convince itself something is resolved long before your nervous system actually agrees. You aren’t a failure, that is just how just how unprocessed memory works. The good news is there are therapies specifically designed to get to the places that talking alone cannot always reach. EMDR is one of them. If you have a memory that keeps showing back up no matter how many times you tell yourself you are over it, that is worth paying attention to. Our trained therapists at Strive CLE Counseling can help. Reach out through our website to get started.
