With our move coming up, I’ve found myself thinking a lot about growth.

Not the kind that looks perfect from the outside but the kind that feels uncertain, and sometimes really uncomfortable.

Growth, in this space, has looked like taking risks before I felt fully ready. Making decisions that carried weight. Sitting in the in between of what was and what’s next. Letting go of what once worked to make room for something more aligned.

This practice has grown in ways I couldn’t have planned and I’ve had to grow right alongside it.

There have been moments of doubt, moments of overwhelm, and moments where I’ve had to come back to my “why” over and over again. But there’s also been so much clarity, connection, and purpose in the process.

As we prepare for this next chapter, I feel both grounded and stretched and I think that’s what real growth often feels like.

Thank you to everyone who has been part of this space and continues to grow with us.

All appointments starting on April 6th, 2026 will be at our new location. ❤️

1184 Lake Avenue.

Chana Katz, LSW

"As a trauma-informed therapist, I understand that everyone has unique life experiences that shape who they are and how they navigate the world. I thrive on creating a safe, supportive space where you can feel truly understood, seen, and empowered to explore your experiences at your own pace.

My practice is rooted in evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Trauma-Focused CBT (TF-CBT), which I use to create personalized treatment plans that honor your unique strengths and needs.

I specialize in working with teens, adults, and families facing a wide range of mental health challenges, including anxiety, trauma, depression, life transitions, family dynamics, and building coping skills. My goal is to meet you where you are in the moment, fostering a strong therapeutic relationship built on trust and empathy, to help you reduce symptoms, develop resilience, and move toward your goals.

I believe therapy is a collaborative process where you should feel heard and supported every step of the way, and I would be honored to be part of your journey."

Offering telehealth sessions Monday-Thursday. Scheduling Now!

It’s Social Work Month, and I’ve been reflecting a lot on the people who helped shape the social worker and the person I am today.

This work is never done alone. Behind every therapist is a long line of mentors, supervisors, colleagues, teachers, and clients who trusted us with their stories and helped us grow along the way. I’ve been incredibly fortunate to learn from so many people throughout my career who challenged me, supported me, and reminded me why this work matters.

Cloudbreak was built from a dream, but it was never built by just one person. It was shaped by every mentor who guided me, every colleague who stood beside me, and every client who allowed me to walk with them through some of the most vulnerable moments of their lives.

Social work is not easy work. It asks us to sit with pain, hold space for healing, and believe in change even when it feels far away. But it is also some of the most meaningful work I could ever imagine doing.

To the mentors who poured into me, the colleagues who continue to inspire me, and the clients who trust Cloudbreak with their healing, thank you. I carry pieces of all of you with me in the work we do every day.

Happy Social Work Month to the social workers showing up, holding space, and changing lives in quiet and powerful ways. 💚✨

Sometimes you look around and realize you’re standing inside something you once only imagined.

Cloudbreak is stepping into one of those moments.

Over the next several weeks, we’ll be giving our space a face lift and transitioning to a new home at 1184 Lake Avenue. Until mid-April to early May, all services will continue at 1029 Lake Ave as we prepare for this next chapter.

What started as a vision for a space where people could feel safe, seen, and supported has grown into something so much more. This move isn’t just about a new building. It’s about growth. It’s about creating more room for healing, for connection, and for the work that changes lives quietly and deeply.

Ashtabula has welcomed us with open arms, and that support has meant everything. We are incredibly grateful for the trust our clients place in us every day. It is a privilege to hold space for your stories, your strength, and your becoming.

Thank you for being part of this journey. We’re just getting started. 🤍

Beginning next month, Brooke, LISW, will be offering Rapid Resolution Therapy (RRT) in our practice and I am genuinely excited about this addition.

There are times when you’ve done the work. You’ve talked through it. You understand it. You can explain your patterns. And yet… something still feels stuck.

RRT is designed for exactly that space.

Rapid Resolution Therapy works directly with the way the brain has stored distressing experiences. It does not require you to repeatedly tell your story or relive painful moments. The focus isn’t on rehashing it’s on resolving. The goal is meaningful emotional relief, not just coping.

This is a brief, focused model. Most individuals complete the process in approximately 1–3 extended sessions rather than committing to ongoing weekly therapy. Because of the specialized and intensive nature of this work, insurance does not cover RRT. We are able to provide a detailed superbill should you wish to independently pursue possible out-of-network reimbursement.

Brooke brings a grounded, thoughtful, and clinically strong presence to this work. She is intentional, steady, and deeply committed to helping clients move forward in a way that feels real and lasting.

If you’ve been functioning, surviving, pushing through but know there’s something unresolved underneath this may be worth exploring.

Scheduling begins next month.
If you are interested call our office and we can get you started! 440-645-9030!

❤️ Wellness Wednesday: Small Daily Habits That Reduce Cardiovascular Risk

Heart health isn’t about perfection. It’s about small, consistent choices that add up over time.

Here are simple daily habits that make a real difference:

✔ Move your body daily
Even 20–30 minutes of walking improves circulation, lowers blood pressure, and supports heart health.

✔ Prioritize sleep
Aim for 7–8 hours when possible. Poor sleep increases inflammation, blood pressure, and metabolic risk.

✔ Eat for balance, not restriction
Focus on protein, fiber, healthy fats, and limiting ultra-processed foods to support cholesterol and blood sugar control.

✔ Manage stress intentionally
Chronic stress impacts heart health. Deep breathing, quiet time, movement, or boundaries all count.

✔ Stay hydrated
Proper hydration supports circulation and overall cardiovascular function.

✔ Know your numbers
Blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar, and weight trends help identify risks early.

Remember: you don’t need drastic changes to improve your health. Small daily habits done consistently create lasting results.

❤️ Take one small step today.
