About Us

Who We Are

Restoring Hope. Rebuilding Lives. Redefining Care.

Vital Health was founded in 2022 by husband and wife team Jacob and Nicole Spellis, who saw a growing need for compassionate, accessible, and integrated behavioral health services in their community.

Together, they built an organization rooted in human connection, clinical excellence, and faith in every person’s ability to heal.
What began with five employees has grown into a thriving network of more than fifty professionals serving individuals and families across Northwest Ohio. Our work is guided by one belief: true wellness happens when behavioral health and primary care come together.

Vital Health exists to provide care that changes lives because we have lived it, we believe in it, and we deliver it every single day.
