About John Widmer

Hi there! My name is John, but everyone calls me JT. I’ve been a therapist here in Ohio since 2008 and I have expertise primarily in addictions, depression, and anxiety/stress. I have a masters degree in clinical counseling from Cincinnati Christian University and I love what I do.

My counseling style is relaxed and non judgmental, while also not being afraid to gently confront clients when contradictions are noticed. I’m well trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Reality Therapy, and more.

I look forward to

“John was a great listener and provided valuable insight.”

“John is fantastic and we are extremely pleased with our counseling sessions. He is a great listener, can readily identify the issue, and gives great tools for overcoming them. We do wish he had video capability but outside of that, he’s a great fit for us.”

“Great therapist”

“I went through a lot of issues the past year and a half! John was easy to talk to and he provided a lot of helpful advice. And it helped a lot and helped solve a lot the issues and put me on a better track. I would definitely recommend him!”

“Great guy. Great advise. Great listener. Couldn’t ask for a better therapist”

“John was wonderful”

“John has been an excellent guide through the things I have experienced.”

“Excellent”

“John was great. He gave very good insight and advice in topics and did a great job of listening.”

“John has been amazing through my current struggles!”

““My guy John” (as family and friends know him) and I have been discussing life and managing my mental health for about a year now, and I am truly so thankful I started with BetterHelp. He’s been a great listener and problem solver when needed. He gives good tips on managing my anxiety and perfectionism tendencies and is always available. He gives honest feedback, is very affirmative when necessary, but also challenges me and my ways when appropriate. We discuss many things and he’s easy to talk to. I appreciate his outside perspective and reframing methods. I’ve become an advocate for therapy because of my awesome experience with him.”

“John (J.T.) has been so awesome and helpful at a time in my life when I just wasn't able to pull myself out of anxiety/depression alone. I wouldn't have stopped meeting him if it wasn't for me moving out of state/beyond his licensure territory. Would recommend him for sure!”

“Fantastic person to talk to, gives you the feeling you are talking to a friend.”

“JT was awesome! Being a first timer with counseling I was extremely nervous to start this process and open up about my deepest insecurities. JT put those fears to rest and provided me with tangible strategies to implement right away. I immediately noticed a difference in myself and have become a better person, husband, and father as a result of this.”

“John is fantastic! Couldn’t ask for better!”
