About Heath
Heath Ridenbaugh is an Ohio LPCC with three years of clinical experience. He works with adults on concerns like depression, anxiety, stress, anger, addiction, grief, relationship strain, parenting challenges, and questions about life purpose. He also helps with communication problems, divorce and separation, social anxiety, and young adult issues.
Heath uses straightforward, practical methods in sessions. He leans on client-centered listening so people can say what matters to them. He combines that with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot thinking patterns and Solution-Focused Therapy to set small, doable steps. Mindfulness tools are used when slowing down or grounding is helpful.
In a typical session Heath talks through what’s happening now and what the person wants to change. He helps identify a few concrete next steps and checks progress week to week. Sessions aim to be clear and task-oriented rather than vague or overly technical.
He has experience across age groups from previous work settings and has supported people with co-occurring mental health and substance use concerns. His LPCC credential indicates licensure to practice in Ohio. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are not accepted.

How Heath integrates approaches for online sessions
Heath commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in his work. Client-Centered Therapy means he listens closely and orients sessions around what the person says is most important. This approach helps clarify values and immediate concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing new behaviors, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and mood problems.He also brings solution-focused techniques when people want concrete next steps. That means pinpointing small, achievable goals and tracking progress across sessions. Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. He will work with the client to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences rather than prescribing a single path.
