Brian Krum, MFT-T

I am currently pursuing my Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from The University of Akron and under supervision under Amanda Essinger, IMFT, LPC -AAMFT-Approved Supervisor Candidate. I am passionate about the influence of familial and romantic relationships and how they influence mental well-being. I am passionate on providing mental services for all ages.

I am glad you have found me! I am a Marriage and Family Therapist in the Barberton and Akron area whose priority is to help you navigate hardships and challenges in a safe and compassionate space. I work with individuals, couples, and families to help improve all areas of quality of life. I am passionate about couples counseling and family to help find what makes my clients' lives work. My personal goal as your therapist is to help you process feelings and thoughts comfortably in a safe space and leave our session feeling accomplished. As a neurodivergent counselor, I enjoy working with clients in navigating a challenging world.
I use an attachment-based approach focused on emotions and experiences in the therapeutic space to promote growth. Therapy looks different for everyone; I combine evidence-based practice with your unique circumstances for an effective experience. Some techniques I use are from DBT, Emotion Focused (EFT), Play Therapy, experiential & client-centered therapy.

Whether it is marital problems, processing trauma, depression, anxiety, stress, mindfulness training, or guidance on how to navigate life, I want to be here for you. I understand how scary therapy can be since it can be vulnerable, and you deserve someone I would be honored to be part of your healing journey!
