Brody Rike, LPCC

Brody Rike is an Ohio-licensed LPCC (Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor) with four years of professional experience and two master’s degrees. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, trauma, abuse, major life transitions, and the tasks of coping with grief and loss. His training and clinical work emphasize practical strategies alongside empathic listening to help clients navigate difficult emotions and make meaningful changes in their lives.

Brody approaches therapy as a collaborative process where respect, sensitivity, and compassion guide each step. He creates a space where people can laugh and cry, make decisions, and gradually embrace change and acceptance. He encourages the courage it takes to pursue a more fulfilling life and offers steady support and empowerment for clients as they take those first steps toward growth.

Whether someone is dealing with an acute stressor or working through longer-term relationship or loss issues, Brody aims to help clients identify goals, develop coping skills, and find renewed purpose during transitions.

Evidence-Based Approaches for Remote Care

Brody uses evidence-based, skills-focused techniques that help people manage stress and anxiety by teaching practical coping tools, breathing and relaxation strategies, and ways to reframe unhelpful thoughts. These approaches aim to reduce immediate distress and build resilience for everyday challenges.

He also offers supportive processing for grief, relationship difficulties, and major life changes. This work emphasizes emotional exploration, meaning-making, and improving communication patterns to support healing and clearer decision making during transitions.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work. Brody collaborates with each person to identify goals, try techniques that fit their needs and preferences, and adjust the plan over time so the therapy remains relevant and effective.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging provides flexible access to licensed professionals. These options allow people to engage in therapy from home or elsewhere, fit sessions into busy schedules, and maintain continuity of care during life changes.
