Female Therapists in Hershey, PA

My purpose and passion is working with children and their families. I approach counseling from a child-centered, mindful, and play-based approach. My belief is that we learn best when we are having fun, when people are curious about our worldviews, and when we are presented with developmentally appropriate treatments and strategies. Central to my approach is that we are all given challenges in life as a way to grow and develop into our best selves. Many of us are doing the best we can with what we know. Counseling can help us all do better.

Do you seek a deeper understanding of why you do the things you do? Are you struggling but you’re not exactly sure why or what to do about it? Taking the step to explore a better understanding of yourself in therapy, is empowering, purposeful, and courageous. Through an authentic connection and openness, I believe change, growth, and healing can occur. Together, we identify areas that are impacting your thinking, behavior, and relationships, seek out and examine their origin, find meaning, and work towards achieving and practicing new, healthier ways of relating and understanding.

Are you feeling stuck with any of the following: anxiety; depression; sadness; stress; grieving; anger; transitions;divorce and/or relationship struggles? Is anger management an issue you need help with? Are you doing something that is robbing you of experiencing true happiness in your life? Have you tried numerous times to lose weight or quit smoking. If any of these resonate with you, than it is time to reclaim your peace of mind and live your life the way you deserve it. The therapeutic relationship including EMDR, and medical hypnosis can help you explore your needs and achieve your goals.

I am trained as a therapy provider who can treat many concerns across the lifespan, including the challenges of being a young adult. I specialize in helping you manage and reduce anxiety, stress, poor sleep, depression, and difficulty adjusting to work, school, or the demands of social situations. I look forward to meeting with you and working together to alleviate discomfort and create a change plan that fits your needs.

Connection is one of the most important aspects to a healthy life, and it is vital for any relationship including a successful therapeutic experience. I work to make each of my clients feel known and valued, whether I am seeing an individual, a couple, or multiple family members. Everyone has a unique perspective that comes from their lived experiences. I strive to understand this from each person, and then journey with my clients as they find their way back to meaningful connection and improved wellbeing.

Welcome to Set Sail Counseling, a group practice located in Hershey, PA. We are excited that you’re here and considering “setting sail” on your journey toward healing! We currently have two LPCs: Stacy Dove (in-person or telehealth) and Stachia Lippy (telehealth only). Stachia utilizes CBT and/or DBT and is a gender-affirming therapist operating from a trauma-informed lens. She especially enjoys working with couples, the LGBTQ+ community, and younger males (ages 18-30).

I believe that therapy offers a unique and safe place to heal and grow. Walking through my clients' difficulties with them creates a space to promote healing and growth. I enjoy the challenge of supporting clients as they gain a sense of empowerment. I work with people from all faith backgrounds, and while I do not consider myself to be solely a "christian counselor", my faith is a large part of my life and I invite clients to lead the role that faith plays in our work together. I work with individuals as well as couples. My work has included supporting people who experience anxiety, depression, poor relationships and life changes.

Life can be hectic, our past can haunt us, and our future can be overwhelming, but therapy provides space for understanding, connection, and communication. It's an opportunity to look at ourselves, our relationships, and our feelings without judgement and allow ourselves to feel compassion, in order to grow. I believe that it's important to live life in the moment, but that we can only truly understand ourselves by reflecting back. My integrative approach guides you in this self-reflection because understanding our family, our feelings and our needs fosters a healthier sense of self and helps us build satisfying relationships.

My approach to treatment is based in the Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) model. I work to help you identify feelings that have an impact on your behaviors and attitudes. By identifying this string of thoughts, feelings and actions, we can work together to make changes that bring about positive outcomes in your life. At times, making changes can be difficult. Techniques of Motivational Interviewing are useful when struggling to determine what changes would be the most beneficial. I approach every session with a trauma informed attitude so events that leave an emotional imprint can be effectively explored.

Are you feeling alone or overwhelmed? Sometimes finding a neutral and healthy space to process things can make all the difference and help you find your emotional and mental balance. I am here to work with you as you reach for the life you want to live.

Picture it: you walk into the therapy office or sit in your favorite comfy chair to start your Telehealth session. You're identifing your triggers, building coping skills, and decreasing thought patterns that cause you to feel overwhelmed, less-than, and stuck. You're building healthy communication skills, creating and enforcing boundaries, and building trusting, secure attachments. You're overcoming life's challenges with greater ease and feeling more confident. You're learning to be your most authentic self. All of these things can be possible through therapy and I'd love to support you through the process.
