Licensed to practice in Pennsylvania and accepts 31 insurances. Specializes in Depression, Grief, Self Esteem
My name is Carolyn Cooper and I have been in the Behavioral Health field for over 20 years. I enjoy hiking, camping and walks in the woods. I find the outdoors to be therapeutic and peaceful. I live in a small town in Pennsylvania and have been married for 17 years. I currently work full time as an Outpatient Supervisor. My goal is to one day work exclusively in private practice.
In the first session, I begin to get to know the client, discuss what they want to achieve or address, goals are identified as well as concerns/issues.
I feel that I am relatable to most people. I have a more casual approach. I think that for anyone to seek treatment takes courage and trust and the therapist they work with needs to understand that and make the setting/experience a comfortable one as much as possible.
I have experience working with a variety of age ranges and diagnoses. I feel I am best suited to work with individuals with depression, grief and loss, those struggling with decision making and self- esteem. I use humor in my sessions and work to help clients build on their strengths.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
CBT is effective in treating several diagnoses. It teaches people to challenge the way they think which directly influences the decisions they make. I always try to incorporate CBT with my clients. I also like to incorporate some type of homework so that clients can practice what we discuss in their natural environment.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
Mindfulness is a good way to bring clients into the present moment and be active in their choices, decisions and habits that can influence emotions.
