About Hope
Hope Striving is an Ohio LPCC with 16 years of clinical experience. Hope works with adults who are managing anxiety, depression, stress, grief, ADHD, and questions around gender and sexual identity. They also support people coping with codependency and relationship patterns that leave them worn out.
Hope works directly with practical problems in sessions. Conversations focus on clearer communication, boundary setting, managing strong emotions, and finding everyday ways to reduce overwhelm. Sessions often include concrete strategies that can be used between meetings.
Their practice emphasizes respectful, culturally responsive care for LGBTQ+ people and anyone asking hard questions about identity or life transitions. Hope helps people dealing with isolation, midlife changes, divorce, and the stress that comes with chronic illness or aging.
Hope draws on person-centered and trauma-informed methods and uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address mood disorders, panic, OCD symptoms, and codependency patterns. The focus is on steady, practical steps rather than quick fixes.
People who work with Hope typically learn clearer ways to express needs, recognize unhelpful patterns, and practice new behaviors in daily life. The sessions aim to make problems feel more manageable and to build skills that fit real-world demands.
To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Payment is handled through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and session cost varies with location.
How sessions work
Evidence-based approaches and online sessions
Hope draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on changing unhelpful thinking and building new behaviors. Cognitive-style approaches look at thought patterns that worsen anxiety and depression and teach clearer ways to respond to stress. Trauma-informed, person-centered methods focus on understanding how past experiences affect current patterns and on practicing coping skills that reduce reactivity.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Hope will collaborate with each person to identify which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means trying techniques, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan as needed rather than assuming one way will work for everyone.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Hope uses practical online tools to teach skills, review exercises between meetings, and keep progress moving forward.
