About Lydia Mahaney, LPCC

Your Partner in Healing  

Lydia Mahaney
Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with a master’s degree from Xaiver University.
Hello and welcome to Oakwell Counseling. I’m Lydia Mahaney, a mental health counselor proudly serving individuals in Cincinnati and throughout the state of Ohio. With a career spanning over a decade in human services, I bring a wealth of experience and a genuine commitment to supporting you on your journey to healing.

In my years working in human services, I’ve witnessed the profound impact of life’s twists and turns. My journey led me to open Oakwell Counseling at the end of 2020, driven by a passion to help individuals navigate the ever-evolving changes in their personal lives and the world at large.

At Oakwell Counseling, my focus is on adults facing the complexities of life. Whether you’re grappling with grief and loss, seeking support for women’s issues, managing stress and anxiety, or navigating interpersonal challenges, our sessions are a dedicated space for your unique journey.

For those inherently inquisitive about themselves, the world, and their purpose, I’m here to be your guide. Let’s embark on a journey of self-exploration, unraveling the mysteries of your identity and purpose.

”The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change.“

-Carl Rogers
