Meet Dr. Srsic
Colby Srsic, Ph.D.
I’m the owner of Relationship Counseling of Ohio, a practice dedicated exclusively to couples intensives. I focus on this format because I have seen how powerful it can be. Couples can make meaningful progress in a few days rather than months and I want people to feel better faster.
I am a licensed psychologist, and I work with couples who are in various stages of life and struggling with many different challenges. I am a certified Emotionally Focused Couples Therapist, one of only a small number of therapists in Ohio with that advanced credential. I am also a PSYPACT provider and can work with clients virtually in over 43 states.
I earned my Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology from The Ohio State University and have over three decades of experience in providing therapy to couples and individuals. I primarily worked in private practice but also taught graduate and undergraduate courses in Psychology at the Ohio State University.
My training includes the Gottman method of helping couples, EMDR, and grief counseling. While I help couples with many different concerns, I have special expertise in the areas of physical intimacy, betrayal, and relationships where one partner has ADHD, is on the autism spectrum, or is in recovery from trauma or addiction.
I identify as biracial (Hispanic/Caucasian), and creating a space where people of color and those who identify as LGBTQIA+ feel safe and respected is deeply important to me.
Clients often tell me they experience me as warm, nonjudgmental and empathic. At the same time, I’m direct and actively engaged in the work. I don’t just listen, together we are actively working to change relationship dynamics that are no longer working.
