Haven Ohly, LISW

Haven Ohly is a licensed therapist in Ohio with nearly two decades of clinical experience who focuses on trauma-informed care and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). He helps people work through painful memories, process difficult life events, and develop emotional resilience through compassionate, respectful care that honors each person’s unique story and context.

In addition to direct clinical work, Haven serves as a Clinical Director at a substance use disorder treatment center, supporting individuals and families during recovery. He also draws on personal experience in recovery to connect with clients in a genuine, nonjudgmental way while maintaining clear structure and clinical integrity. That combination of professional training and lived experience informs his collaborative, practical approach to change.

Raised in Cleveland, Ohio, Haven brings an appreciation for how environment and systemic factors shape well-being and is committed to serving diverse and often underserved communities. He works with trauma, anxiety, depression, substance use, relationship difficulties, and major life transitions, and he supports clients facing social anxiety, communication challenges, questions of identity and purpose, and life changes related to divorce or aging.

Haven’s therapeutic style balances support with structure, offering space to explore experiences alongside tools for real-world change. For clients who wish to include spirituality in their work, he can integrate faith-based perspectives. His aim is to help people feel understood, empowered, and equipped to move forward with greater clarity and strength.
