What We Can Help With
Anxiety & Stress
When your thoughts won't slow down, your body feels constantly on edge, or everyday life feels harder than it should, therapy can help you understand what's happening and develop ways to manage it.
Trauma & PTSD
Trauma can affect your thoughts, emotions, relationships, body, and sense of safety long after the event has ended. Our trauma-informed clinicians can help you work through your experiences at a pace that feels safe for you.
Depression
If you're feeling exhausted, disconnected, unmotivated, hopeless, or simply unlike yourself, you don't have to work through it alone.
Relationships & Couples
Relationships can be complicated. Therapy can provide a place to work through communication problems, conflict, trust, emotional disconnection, and other challenges.
Life Transitions
Divorce, grief, career changes, parenting, major life changes, stress, and unexpected circumstances can leave you wondering what comes next. Therapy can help you navigate the transition and find your footing again.
What Makes Us Different?
Healing that reaches the mind and the body
Trauma doesn't live only in your thoughts. Many of our clinicians are trained in EMDR and somatic therapy, and our owner and clinical director, Dr. Cindy Herzberg, brings more than 25 years of experience and advanced trauma training to everything we do.
Options beyond weekly sessions
When weekly appointments aren't enough, our therapy intensives offer focused, extended time to make progress faster. We also offer group therapy and substance use counseling.
Care for every member of your family
We see children as young as three, teens, adults, couples, and families, with play therapy for young kids. That means one practice you can trust for the whole household.
Care without the wait
With four Central Ohio offices plus secure telehealth across Ohio, many new clients are seen within 48 hours.

Experienced Therapists. Individualized Care. Real People.
100+ Years of Combined Clinical Experience
After the Storm Counseling was built from a belief that mental health care should feel personal. Our clinicians bring experience, training, compassion, and different perspectives to their work. We don't believe therapy should feel like you're being processed through a system.
Care Built Around You
Your therapy should reflect your goals, your experiences, and what you need—not simply a standard treatment plan.
We Love What We Do
We chose this work because we care about people. We believe meaningful therapy happens when you feel heard, respected, understood, and supported by someone who genuinely wants to help.
Why Choose After the Storm Counseling
Individualized care to fit you
Every person who walks through our doors has a different story. We don't believe in one-size-fits-all therapy; we take the time to understand you and build an approach that fits your life.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is it normal to feel nervous about starting therapy?
Absolutely. Many people feel anxious or uncertain before their first appointment. Starting therapy is a new experience, and it’s completely normal to have questions or feel unsure about what to expect. Our therapists create a welcoming, supportive environment where you can move at your own pace and share only what feels comfortable.
