Sam Bernhofer, LPCC-S

Mental Health & Counseling located in Ohio City, Cleveland, OH

Hey, I’m Sam! I believe that we tend to heal better together as a community, not just as isolated individuals. So, I don’t believe therapy ought to be a stuffy, hypercritical space. As a clinician, I aim to provide language and evidence-based tools to understand and manage your concerns. But as your compassionate collaborator, I aim to give space and understanding through a lens that doesn't make you feel alone.

I offer a unique background that ranges from a Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy from Kent State to a Master of Education in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Cleveland State. Over the past decade I've worked as a group facilitator for at-risk youth and a counselor for substance use and behavioral health clients in both individual and group levels of care. As a clinical mental health assessor, I’ve diagnosed thousands of folks to match them with the best treatment as they begin their mental health journey.

In my personal life, I enjoy everything related to motorcycles, hiking, and traveling with my wife.

Currently, I’m in the process of getting certified for EMDR treatment and am excited to learn new ways to help us heal. I aim to be a continual student in this field.

Each experience paints a unique perspective to consider as I walk with you in your mental health journey.

Thanks for taking the time to read!
