JONAH LAKIN, PSY.D.

LICENSED CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGIST # P.07764

Before opening in Ohio, I had been doing exposure therapy for OCD & anxiety disorders for several years in California's Silicon Valley. I owned and operated the San Mateo CBT Clinic there, and wanted to return to my hometown of Cleveland to bring these life changing services to my community.  I have been amazed by how much change can happen in a relatively short period of time; it's been incredibly rewarding to witness what people do with their lives once anxiety is no longer a barrier. 

In my free time, I enjoy exercising, reading, good food with friends, watching Netflix with my wife, and scratching our cat's belly.
