Deciding to start therapy can be a challenging and vulnerable process. My goal as a therapist is to make each individual feel as safe and supported as possible with high levels of empathy, compassion, and genuineness. Throughout the therapy process, I value the importance of improving relationships, managing stress, and increasing the ability to identify and regulate emotions. In sessions, I emphasis the importance of processing core beliefs we hold towards ourself and the world, practicing daily mindfulness, and learning skills to effectively regulate our emotions. I also provide supervision for pre-licensed clinicians!

Whether you are coming to therapy for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship issues, a life change, or just a general sense of unease, facing these issues can be scary. Healing isn’t easy because it involves confronting our pain and hurts. Healing can also be full of joy, hope, connection, and freedom as we experience new possibilities of being and relating. My approach is warm, relational, and integrative. I strive to offer a space where you can feel safe enough to look inward – to gently and compassionately welcome all parts of yourself with less judgment and shame.

I specialize in supporting individuals dealing with anxiety, depression, people-pleasing tendencies, and trauma. My therapeutic approach is designed to help you navigate these challenges with compassion and empowerment. Through thoughtful conversations and observations, I guide you toward new insights and self-discoveries. Whether we're engaging in reflective conversations, exploring moments of stillness, or paying attention to unspoken cues, our sessions are tailored to help you achieve your goals.

Each of us comes to psychotherapy for different reasons, and while no two psychotherapy journeys will be alike, we all require the same essential conditions of empathy, acceptance, and supportive encouragement to examine our lives with an attitude of curiosity and a creative vision for change. As a licensed psychologist with a wide-range of training and clinical experience, I am committed to establishing a therapeutic relationship that is dedicated toward understanding the circumstances that have brought you to this point in your life and in drawing upon your strengths and resources for taking your life in a new direction.

Hello, my name is Katie and I have a decade of experience in severe mental illness, grief therapy, self-esteem, depression, anxiety and women's issues. I take a client-centered, empowerment approach. Together we will work on creating and sustaining your goals (not just in therapy but long after).

I work with individuals struggling with life transitions, emotion regulation, and relationship difficulties. My approach is collaborative and person-centered, drawing effective interventions from several different therapy approaches. I provide an atmosphere of warmth, insight, and acceptance, in which people feel comfortable sharing and exploring their experiences and developing new skills.

When I was in grad school I was asked this question: why do you want to do therapy? My answer was immediate: "I want to alleviate suffering!" A more experienced clinician shared a perplexing truth with me: sometimes you can't, you can just sit with the person through it. Over the years I have been honored to hold space for my clients to share their stories of courage and pain. I started to see what she meant, and revised my motto: I want to alleviate suffering and when I can’t I want to create a soft place to land.

Hello! I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Pennsylvania. I've been working in the mental health field for 20 years with the past 10 years as a licensed therapist. I have a master's degree in counseling psychology and experienced in helping clients of all ages in all populations with a variety of different challenges.

As a therapist, I feel privileged to be a part of my clients' lives and be able to witness the resilience and strength within each person I work with. We all have challenges and struggles that we need help navigating sometimes. My experience is working with clients who struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, grief, OCD, ADHD, and relationship problems. In my work, I try to prioritize co-creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients can feel heard, understood, and supported.

My goal is to help those in the LGBTQ+ community navigate the social and personal challenges of gender identity and sexual orientation, as well as co-occurring mental health symptoms that they may be experiencing. I provide a safe therapeutic environment to meet the unique needs of this community. I have experience working with those of varying gender identities, sexual orientations, as well as varying non-monogamous relationship orientations. I also have experience working with individuals preparing for or receiving gender affirming medical care.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with close to 20 years of helping professional experience. My hope is as your therapist to be a breath of fresh air during this difficult time.

I support those who are experiencing anxiety & depression and are looking for coping skills to help them. I can assist someone to uncover and understand the relationship that factors in their lives can have on their mental health symptoms. Additionally, I can help uncover negative patterns that maintain a lack of progress. An ideal client would be someone who comes to treatment open-minded, asks questions, and is open to sharing their thoughts, concerns, and questions. This way, the ideal collaboration between therapist and client can occur to achieve the most genuine success through treatment.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and I work with clients with eating disorders, chronic illness, anxiety, trauma, ADHD, women's issues and life transitions. Many times, we may not be aware of how certain situations have impacted us. We may even feel that we have dealt with things cognitively; however, our actions and emotions may not align. I work from a trauma-focused lens which means that I believe that we have all had our fair share of difficulties that are impacting our present-day thoughts, emotions and behaviors. I work with clients to address past, present and future struggles to have a more adaptive perspective.

I treat Anxiety, depression, lack of self-acceptance, and grief problems. I help with the management of anxiety symptoms and depression, helping you to develop coping skills to manage your every day. I help clients identify and challenge cognitive distortions and replace them with positive affirmations. I will teach some mindfulness meditation to help you when anxious & help you obtain a better understanding of your mental health to cope with your emotions.

My ideal client wants something better, has no idea what "better" is or looks like, and has no idea where to start. They are still determining if they are ready to start or commit to that change. What they need is a person and a space to figure it out. Deep down, they know where they are right now can be better, whether in relationships, emotions, daily habits, major life goals, or anything in-between. But, most importantly, they want a space where they can process and grow from that place and build a sustainable life.
