We strive to meet everyone exactly where they are at, which is why Telehealth (or virtual counseling) is our primary vehicle for services. While each of our providers have a different specialty, we all help clients mediate stress to reach their full potential. We may gently challenge you to reflect on the experiences you have had that affected who you are and how you think about things. We may help you discover the impact you have on the world around you. We may help you learn to love yourself unconditionally. Counseling is more than just talk-therapy. It’s about developing a deeper emotional understanding of yourself in order to create a more fulfilling and satisfying life. Read about our counselors to learn more. https://www.livewellcleveland.com/ourteam daily 0.75 2025-10-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/1642794074778-A7JIT7H25CUVEZF5XB7A/jeff+headshot+copy.jpg Our Team https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/1652210771001-1V64FQ3DWN68TL842CXD/Headshot+new.jpg Our Team https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/1652367145187-81YC79O8I9UULIWADZ5K/image.jpg Our Team https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/1658417608053-WFNZGHCW8KXZL5LJKUUR/Ariana+Nehls.jpg Our Team https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/b5bc1076-a2b1-494d-bf7b-9bc0e27cf74b/Lyndsie+Headshot.jpg Our Team https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/69afebf8-f4bc-4a24-aed7-8713537231e4/JD+headshot.jpg Our Team https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/af376525-eb89-4b13-a113-8324aefe18e5/Kelsey+R+Headshot.jpeg Our Team https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/9bc258ec-c037-42d3-bb1a-b640ed153126/Kaouther+Aliche.jpg Our Team https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/df1b864d-bdb2-4dd3-bb8c-4ef4bffc5ceb/Jennifer+Beasley.jpg Our Team https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/117113ea-b2c6-4795-8327-8103b05fa725/IMG_0097.jpeg Our Team https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/1972da01-5f0b-4b10-a8c9-57c6a51882a8/Paddyheadshot.jpg Our Team https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/f586e046-aad4-4a21-b446-7311c7511c3d/IMG_8257.jpeg Our Team https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/df2591ef-c724-4198-9b4a-7a4a114b6785/Mary+Lawrence+new+headshot.jpg Our Team https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/e88cf4c0-4b7c-4867-8435-0b179c243c08/IMG_6040.jpeg Our Team https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/a9807250-9ce3-4e21-a581-7c2bcbaeb96d/Molly+McGann+.jpg Our Team https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/132cafcc-a793-4d67-8c58-0dc19f5fe92f/Gabrielle.jpg Our Team https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/f4a698d5-4d39-4577-aee8-4198e8ca8e58/sarah+peterson.jpg Our Team https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/29b320ba-8930-466b-a5a4-9201fcd3b8eb/Michael+Billock.jpeg Our Team https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/f2aeb7c5-ac9f-41cc-94cc-f21851bda9c5/1.png Our Team https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/e9a116f4-91d4-482a-a194-8a4da55ca3c5/3X2A1305.png Our Team https://www.livewellcleveland.com/contact daily 0.75 2023-10-31 https://www.livewellcleveland.com/careers daily 0.75 2023-10-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/1642881563380-U1MUZ298KTDS2QR86Q1M/unsplash-image-azsk_6IMT3I.jpg Careers https://www.livewellcleveland.com/jeff-sustarsic daily 0.75 2023-09-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/0420c0eb-8ea2-4922-be4a-42e394c79b7c/jeff+headshot+copy.jpg Jeff Sustarsic - Jeff Sustarsic, LPCC-S, NCC I think of counseling as collaborative, where I am able to act as mirror and consultant. I work to highlight your strengths and positive aspects, while gently pointing out certain aspects of thoughts and/or behaviors that might be contributing to your reasons for coming to counseling. And always, I hope to foster a safe, nonjudgmental environment. I primarily work with adults and adolescents with some experience with children. I earned my B.S. in Psychology from John Carroll University and earned a M.Ed. from Cleveland State University in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I am also working towards a Ph.D. at Kent State University in Counselor Education and Supervision. I hold a terminal license in the State of Ohio, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with a Training Supervision Designation (LPCC-S), and am a National Certified Counselor (NCC) by the National Board for Certified Counselors (NBCC). My other employment includes being one of the 24-hour clinical supervisors for the Cuyahoga County suicide and psychiatric crisis team (the Mobile Crisis Team), while also having past experience working in private practice as well as former volunteer experiences with the Cleveland Rape Crisis Center (hotline service advocate) and American Red Cross (disaster mental health worker). You’re here! That’s fantastic! Even if this is the result of a quick Google search, it’s tremendous that you’re here and are perhaps taking the first steps towards wellness. I know it can be scary, especially if you’ve had bad experiences in counseling in the past. My hope is that you reach out, whether it be me or someone else, and I hope you remember that help is always out there. https://www.livewellcleveland.com/kelsey-pilling daily 0.75 2024-03-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/efee4692-633c-4097-9141-6c0f5b378b34/IMG_9220.jpeg Kelsey Pilling - Kelsey Pilling, M.Ed., LPCC (She/Her) In addition to Telehealth, I offer walk & talk therapy, where we talk on the phone while we both walk outside! We will integrate the action of forward movement, breathing new air, and grounding ourselves in the present moment as we unpack your world. For a moment, I’d like you to think about how you were raised, things you've been through, and your current and past relationships. All of this impacts who you are. I'm here to help you recognize that you absolutely have the power to change the things you don't love about your life. You will learn how to best serve you, and unlearn things that no longer serve you. I deeply enjoy working with anyone in the LGBTQ+ community and am passionate about advocating for you and being your ally. I also have a special interest in maternal mental health, and helping women reduce stress during pregnancy and postpartum. I, too, am human, and I, too, am messy. We are all just doing our best every single day. If you feel lost, I can help you figure it out. To reduce stress in my own life, I enjoy hiking and being in nature, and spending time with my spouse and my son. https://www.livewellcleveland.com/apply daily 0.75 2023-04-07 https://www.livewellcleveland.com/insurance-and-payment daily 0.75 2023-10-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/a5221bfd-a850-4c7e-95ae-2012c04bbfc9/unsplash-image-t1XLQvDqt_4.jpg Insurance & Payment - Other Options Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Savings Account (FSA) can be used toward mental health coverage. Co-pays can be paid via HSA, among other methods. Self-pay is for clients who do not have health insurance coverage, or who have high insurance deductibles. Discuss a fixed-rate with your counselor. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/1643142446206-40GRGI89YQA39EUBXGQI/unsplash-image-_AdUs32i0jc.jpg Insurance & Payment - Insurance We accept a variety of health insurance carriers to make your experience in counseling affordable and simple. Contact us if you do not see your carrier listed, and we will help you check. The best way for you to figure out if we are in-network with your specific plan is to call your health insurance and ask “What are my mental health benefits?” and “Is Live Well Counseling or Jeffrey Sustarsic (practice owner) in-network?” Aetna Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield Anthem Ohio Medicaid Buckeye Ohio Medicaid CareSource CareSource Ohio Medicaid Cigna Medical Mutual Molina Healthcare of Ohio Molina Ohio Medicaid Ohio Medicaid UnitedHealthcare UnitedHealthcare Ohio Medicaid UMR https://www.livewellcleveland.com/telehealth daily 0.75 2023-10-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/1659488675346-DW5ZI5G7XGUJCGW8XZ8R/unsplash-image-Nv-vx3kUR2A.jpg Telehealth - Telehealth Telehealth counseling, also known as virtual or online counseling, is a great alternative to face-to-face counseling if you are unable to travel, if you are away from home on a trip, or if there is a global pandemic limiting face-to-face contact between human beings. At Live Well, we treat online sessions the same way we treat face-to-face sessions. We use simple-to-use and secure video platforms to foster a comfortable environment. Telehealth counseling can be advantageous to in-person counseling, in that, you can turn off the video capability if you are uncomfortable being seen. Use your computer, phone, iPad, or tablet to access your counseling sessions. https://www.livewellcleveland.com/sabrina-kohls daily 0.75 2023-09-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/27c6f360-d0d5-4a31-9f29-8e4d6ba5d2f0/Sabrina.jpg Sabrina Kohls - Sabrina Kohls, LSW, MPH Tobias Keene, D.D.S. Hailing from Richmond, Virginia, Dr. Tobias Keene brings a bit of unabashed Southern hospitality to all his patients. He moved to Washington, D.C. over thirty years ago as a freshman at Ivy College. Right after graduation, he attended World University’s School of Dentistry. Before opening Keene Dental in 1994, he worked for free clinics and some of the finest practices in the District. He is part of the 123 Dental Association and stays up-to-date on the latest dental discoveries. When not striving to keep his patients happy and healthy, he’s enjoys hiking with his family in Rock Creek Park. https://www.livewellcleveland.com/kayciemerkel daily 0.75 2025-10-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/e88cf4c0-4b7c-4867-8435-0b179c243c08/IMG_6040.jpeg Kaycie Merkel - Kaycie Merkel, MSW, LISW Talking openly with someone about our problems can feel scary. My goal is for you to always feel safe and heard as we dive into places of the mind in which you may never have explored before. By taking this healing journey together, I hope to work together to discover the unhelpful and negative thinking patterns that often lead us to where we are today. It is important to understand where these thoughts are coming from, so that we can begin to make the changes we want to see in our lives. I have experience working with children, teens, and adults. I earned my B.A in Social Work from Akron University and earned a Masters in Social Work from The Ohio State University. My preferred pronouns are she/ her. I'm so glad you landed here! Sometimes we don't know how to ask for help or what that process looks like. I promise to meet you exactly where you are at, and help you get to where you want to be. Throughout therapy, I aim to a realistic but encouraging environment, so that everyone feels heard and understood. I hope to see you soon! https://www.livewellcleveland.com/ariana-nehls daily 0.75 2024-08-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/5dc9a96f-c712-4b70-a4a5-b68b922125cf/Ariana+Nehls.jpg https://www.livewellcleveland.com/jessica-daniels daily 0.75 2023-07-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/69afebf8-f4bc-4a24-aed7-8713537231e4/JD+headshot.jpg https://www.livewellcleveland.com/lyndsie-markovsky daily 0.75 2025-03-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/f3f40d05-f5bb-4c55-a2e4-237eaee4b43e/Lyndsie+Headshot.jpg https://www.livewellcleveland.com/kelsey-raymondi daily 0.75 2024-04-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/af376525-eb89-4b13-a113-8324aefe18e5/Kelsey+R+Headshot.jpeg https://www.livewellcleveland.com/mary-lawrence daily 0.75 2024-04-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/df2591ef-c724-4198-9b4a-7a4a114b6785/Mary+Lawrence+new+headshot.jpg https://www.livewellcleveland.com/zeina-dean daily 0.75 2024-02-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/97ea9216-81e8-4e3d-ab11-8b1c2a48a79e/IMG_0097.jpeg https://www.livewellcleveland.com/kaouther-aliche daily 0.75 2024-02-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/9bc258ec-c037-42d3-bb1a-b640ed153126/Kaouther+Aliche.jpg https://www.livewellcleveland.com/michaelbillock daily 0.75 2024-09-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/29b320ba-8930-466b-a5a4-9201fcd3b8eb/Michael+Billock.jpeg https://www.livewellcleveland.com/jenniferbeasley-robinson daily 0.75 2024-08-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/df1b864d-bdb2-4dd3-bb8c-4ef4bffc5ceb/Jennifer+Beasley.jpg https://www.livewellcleveland.com/kelsey-davis daily 0.75 2024-03-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/f586e046-aad4-4a21-b446-7311c7511c3d/IMG_8257.jpeg https://www.livewellcleveland.com/patrick-scanlan daily 0.75 2025-02-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/1972da01-5f0b-4b10-a8c9-57c6a51882a8/Paddyheadshot.jpg https://www.livewellcleveland.com/mollymcgann daily 0.75 2024-06-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/a9807250-9ce3-4e21-a581-7c2bcbaeb96d/Molly+McGann+.jpg https://www.livewellcleveland.com/gabrielle-myers daily 0.75 2024-07-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/132cafcc-a793-4d67-8c58-0dc19f5fe92f/Gabrielle.jpg https://www.livewellcleveland.com/sarah-peterson daily 0.75 2024-07-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/547078a7-0768-4302-9d8e-3ab4345c74dc/sarah+peterson.jpg https://www.livewellcleveland.com/megan-long daily 0.75 2024-10-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/3c746b97-4745-48c7-812a-f3522058fbb2/1.png https://www.livewellcleveland.com/bridget-kohls daily 0.75 2025-10-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e892e5ceee0115f1c816d3/46652188-9e6a-483a-8b7e-2f2eb6464148/3X2A1305.png
