Jessie Pollak, MA, LPCC
Beachwood Team Lead

I received my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from John Carroll University, and I received my undergraduate degree in Psychology, with a minor in Theatre, at the Ohio State University. My focus is on psychotherapy with children, adolescents, and their families with an emphasis on depression, general anxiety, social anxiety, suicidality, and behavioral issues. I use an eclectic approach, incorporating CBT, DBT, and expressive therapies, including drama. In the past, I have co-facilitated both Adult and Adolescent Intensive Outpatient Programs, along with acting and directing at a local theatre camp, interacting with parents and children alike. I believe that every person deserves to express themselves in a non-judgmental environment.
