Brian Ward, PsyD

Dr. Bri likes sad stories (it’s a little more involved than that, but roll with me here), hence finding his time away from humans in support of animals needing comfort in their own sad stories. He cares-for, fosters, rehabs and occasionally hosts a hospice for the little ones of Licking County Humane Society with his family & small sanctuary at home. Dr. Bri has also joined a small team of volunteers at a local fox sanctuary. 

Dr. Bri also loves a sad song (it’s kind of as simple as it sounds), and continues to write & release music, hinting at a whole younger life of rockstar dreams. If Brian worshipped, it would probably be in the forest on a trail, as he & his little pack spend the weekends hiking & road tripping. 

Brian also spends time as a psychotherapist. Finding the most human of healing in connection, trust, laughter, he works best with those with which he fits well, rather than with any “issue” (though he claims to have “favorites”). 

Dr. Bri once earned his Doctorate of Psychology at The Chicago School of Professional Psychology. He also once worked at a private practice in Chicago’s Boystown, and at the Counseling Centers of the University of Maine & Ohio Wesleyan. He has trained at The Existential-Humansitic Institute & The Gestalt Institute of Cleveland (ongoing).
