Art Therapy in Audubon, PA

I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and their families, providing a range of services including individual and group therapy sessions.

Espenshade Counseling provides creative and individualized treatment plans which typically incorporate therapy, coaching, case management, family support, and connections to outside providers such as psychiatrists, group programs, and nutritional support.

Once a new client/family engages in our services, I assist in ensuring that the team is working effectively and collaboratively to achieve goals.

I've often wondered where the immense levels of passion that stir within me while conducting therapy sessions arise from, and I've traced that passion back to the point in my own personal journey over a decade ago when I had first discovered that I was able to fully participate in the transformation of my mind and life by cultivating a deeper sense of awareness upon my thoughts, beliefs, and self-concept. Ever since going through my own profound waves of transformation, I've always had a fire within me to bring that same awareness to others - to illuminate that they too can play an extraordinary role in creating a better tomorrow.

Hi and thanks for looking at my profile! I have been in the field for 20 years (licensed counselor for 15) and I have worked with many people of different ages and issues.

What is different about my work is that I have spent over a decade studying the energetic patterns behind the manifestation of psychological issues.

Feeling overwhelmed can be isolating, but you don't have to face it alone. When I am invited to journey in a therapeutic process with you, I facilitate steps to uncover the barriers to connection with self, tap into your inner wisdom, and discover the answers you may be searching for. This develops a greater trust in self, cultivating and stengthening self connection, and living more authentically and fully. From my heart-centered stance, I see clients as whole beings, not defined by their trauma. This helps us address challenges while staying connected to their strengths, resilience, and capacity to move toward their desired life.
