About

Welcome! My name is Russell Spieth, PhD. I live in Cleveland Heights, and am licensed in Ohio. I offer a safe, non-judgmental space where we can work together toward understanding, healing and growth. I became a psychologist because I believe in the incredible resilience of the human spirit. I enjoy partnering with adults on their journey toward being their best selves. If you're seeking a supportive, open space to learn more about yourself and address life's challenges, I'm here to help.

Education & Licensure
PhD in counseling psychology from the University of Akron, Akron; M.Ed. in counseling psychology from Columbia University, New York; BS in psychology from Florida State University, Tallahassee.
Treatment Approach
What motivated you to specialize in working with autistic adults?

My commitment to supporting autistic adults stems from witnessing the long-term impact of missed, late, or misdiagnosed autism in educational and vocational settings. My goal is to foster an inclusive and empowering space for autistic adults to learn more about themselves and uncover strategies to be the best version of themselves. I provide tailored support that honors individual experiences, helping clients leverage their capabilities, navigate challenges, and develop self-awareness and skills for a richer daily life. This is a collaborative effort to ensure you feel understood, supported, and ready to reach our unique goals.

How do you bring a strengths-based, affirming approach to your client work?

My approach is strengths-based, empathetic, and collaborative. We'll work together to identify your inner resources, needs and build resilience. My practice ensures that each individual is recognized for their unique capabilities. I strive to foster a safe and supportive environment where clients feel truly seen, valued, and empowered to leverage their inherent strengths, navigate challenges, and achieve meaningful personal growth.
