Corrie Gerster

Corrie Gerster is an Ohio-based mental health therapist with 11 years of professional experience across diverse care settings. She has provided services in school-based, home-based, community-based, residential, and private practice environments, and for the last 7 years she has focused on working with survivors of human trafficking.

Her clinical experience includes helping people manage stress and anxiety, process trauma and abuse, cope with depression and sexual-based traumas, address relationship concerns and non-traditional relationship dynamics, and navigate transitions such as entering adulthood or becoming a parent. She also works with issues related to personality disorders, codependency, self-harm and suicidal thoughts, family conflicts, grief, intimacy, parenting challenges, self-esteem, career difficulties, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue. Corrie also offers coaching and support for LGBTQ concerns.

Corrie practices using a blend of evidence-informed methods - primarily cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills - along with client-centered and solution-focused approaches to help people pursue the goals they set. She aims to create an open, nonjudgmental environment where thoughts and feelings can be discussed safely.

Corrie holds an LPCC-S in Ohio, a licensed professional clinical counselor credential with supervisory endorsement, and she brings over a decade of clinical work to her practice. She recognizes that beginning therapy often takes courage and strives to support clients through that first step.
