About Zachary
Zachary Havens is an Ohio LPCC with six years of clinical experience. He helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, and anger. He also supports people facing life changes, addictions, relationship concerns, sleep and eating struggles, and career-related stress.
He keeps sessions direct and practical. Conversations focus on what is happening now and what small steps can change daily life. He listens for patterns that leave a person feeling stuck and works with them to set achievable goals. Zachary uses plain language and concrete exercises rather than jargon.
His background includes work with people who have experienced significant life stressors and trauma. He draws on several evidence-based approaches to help reduce symptoms and build new coping options. He has experience addressing issues common to first responders, athletes, and those recovering from injury or chronic illness.
Zachary uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive-behavioral techniques, client-centered work, and mindfulness practices in sessions. He is also completing training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing as noted in his biography. These methods are applied to help with anxiety, trauma reactions, motivation, and mood disturbances.
Sessions focus on concrete skills for managing anger, impulsivity, and rumination. He helps people identify triggers, try new responses, and build routines that reduce reactivity. The aim is steady progress toward the goals agreed on between the person and therapist.
How his approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that align with your values. It can help people who get stuck in anger or worry by teaching practical steps to move toward what matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down thinking and behavior patterns into manageable parts and uses exercises to change unhelpful reactions, which often helps with anxiety, mood, and anger control. Mindfulness Therapy uses short, present-focused practices to lower reactivity and increase moment-to-moment awareness, useful for impulse control and stress.Picking the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client will talk through symptoms, goals, and preferences, then try methods that fit. They adjust strategies if something isn’t helping, keeping the process collaborative and goal-focused.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and reduce travel time. It also makes it possible to continue momentum between in-person commitments and to practice skills in everyday settings. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and mindfulness exercises for remote sessions so they remain practical and hands-on.
