About Zachary

Zachary Havens is an Ohio LPCC with six years of professional experience. He helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, and motivation concerns. He also addresses relationship strain and a wide range of life changes that leave people feeling stuck.

He focuses on clear, practical steps in sessions. Zachary encourages people to notice unhelpful thoughts and try small, testable changes. Sessions aim to break patterns that keep someone feeling constrained or down.

Zachary has worked with people who face high-stress jobs, injury rehabilitation, and other situations that disrupt everyday functioning. He supports people dealing with grief, addictions, eating and sleeping difficulties, and caregiver stress. He also helps with body image, communication problems, and feelings of emptiness.

His approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, client-centered methods, mindfulness, and EMDR as part of treatment planning. He uses these methods to help people build practical skills, practice new responses, and process distressing memories when appropriate.

Sessions focus on specific goals and measurable steps toward them. He asks about a person's routines and reactions, then works with them to shift habits and thoughts that cause problems. The tone is direct and solution-oriented, with attention to real-life demands like work and parenting.

People who are considering therapy are invited to complete the short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Zachary offers services in English and accepts international clients, working from his Ohio practice.

Online approaches and how they fit into treatment

CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing alternative responses. It teaches practical skills for managing anxiety, low mood, and unhelpful habits by using exercises and between-session practice.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small committed actions toward those values. It can be useful for coping with life changes, chronic stress, and feelings of stuckness.

Client-centered methods place an emphasis on listening and understanding a person’s perspective. This helps build a working plan that reflects the client’s goals and day-to-day realities.

Figuring out which approach fits best is part of the work. The therapist will review needs, goals, and preferences and collaborate with the client to choose methods to try. That choice can change as progress is made and as specific challenges emerge.

Session formats are not detailed in this biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions help them fit therapy into their weekly routine, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Online work can also make it easier to practice skills in everyday settings and carry over changes into real life.
