Hi! My name is Alexys and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. Since 2010, I have dedicated my clinical career to helping individuals navigate life's complex transitions, process deep-seated challenges, and build healthier, more intentional relationships. I believe that therapy is at its best when it is a true partnership. You are the expert on your own life story; my role is to provide the clinical expertise, objective perspective, and dedicated space to help you make sense of it.

Hello, I’m Nicole McDuff, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Pennsylvania. I have over a decade of experience in the mental health field and hold a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Gannon University. I take a warm, relational, and deeply individualized approach to therapy. I believe that meaningful change happens not just by managing symptoms, but by understanding yourself more fully — your experiences, patterns, relationships, and the meaning you’ve made of your story. My goal is to create a steady, compassionate space where you feel genuinely heard and supported as we explore what’s bringing you to therapy.

At my core, I am a humanist, existentialist, and a proponent of unconditional self-compassion. I am especially drawn to the moments in therapy where people feel safe enough to speak honestly about the parts of themselves they've carried alone. I value depth, authenticity, humor, and the relief that comes from being fully human in the room with another person. I have come to deeply value my work with adults and people navigating life transitions, grief, identity shifts, meaning, and the emotional complexity that comes with living a full life.

I offer a supportive space for individuals navigating trauma, grief, depression, life transitions, and cultural challenges. I integrate Gestalt, Cognitive, and Psychodynamic therapy to help clients reconnect with the present moment, explore unresolved emotions, and shift unhelpful thought patterns. My approach is compassionate and collaborative. I honor each client's unique story and create a safe environment where meaningful change can happen.

Hello, I'm Yannette Barnes, LPC, and welcome to Chrysalis Mental Health—where transformation begins. Seeking therapy is a courageous step, and I am committed to providing a safe, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, understood, and supported throughout your journey. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) serving clients in both Pennsylvania and Ohio. I earned a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Wake Forest University and a Master of Science in Administration of Justice with a concentration in Forensic Mental Health Treatment . In addition, I have advanced training as a Behavior Specialist in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), allowing me to integrate evidence-based behavioral interventions with a holistic, client-centered therapeutic approach. I provide psychotherapy and behavioral health services for adults (18+) experiencing a variety of emotional, behavioral, and life challenges, including: - Anxiety and depression - Trauma and stress-related concerns - Relationship and marital difficulties - Life transitions and personal growth - Emotional regulation -Obsessive and repetitive behaviors, including Body-Focused Repetitive Behaviors (BFRBs) such as hair pulling (trichotillomania) and skin picking (excoriation disorder) - Behavioral concerns requiring evidence-based interventions My counseling style is collaborative, compassionate, and strengths-based. I believe each person possesses the capacity for growth and healing, even during life's most difficult seasons. Together, we will work to understand the patterns that may be keeping you stuck, identify your strengths, and develop practical strategies that support lasting change and emotional well-being. At Chrysalis Mental Health, I believe meaningful transformation happens through connection, self-discovery, and intentional growth. Whether you are navigating a difficult life transition, seeking healthier relationships, or working toward greater emotional balance, I look forward to partnering with you on your journey toward healing and resilience.

I work with women navigating life transitions, including changes in relationships, family roles, and health. These experiences can bring anxiety, emotional overwhelm, and the effects of trauma into focus, and can influence how thoughts, emotions, and the body interact. As a yoga teacher and yoga therapist for over 25 years, mindfulness is a natural part of my work and informs how I understand and approach the mind body connection. I integrate mindfulness based stress reduction, mindfulness based cognitive therapy, and somatic therapy into sessions in a way that supports awareness and emotional regulation. My training as a Licensed Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania, Florida, South Carolina and Delaware allows me to bring these approaches together in a way that is both clinically grounded and also responsive to your experience.

I value evidence-based treatment! I know approaching mental health can often feel confusing, undefined, and can elicit questions like, "Where do I even begin?" I want to create a roadmap to feeling better. We'll define markers of progress and track your momentum over time. By creating clear indicators for success, we'll have a clear, grounded approach to treatment. Further, it is incredibly important to me that you feel safe and welcomed in-session. I know that treatment can be a very vulnerable process, so your comfort is of the utmost importance. We can move at whatever speed feels best to you. Thank you for your consideration, and I hope to hear from you soon!

Hi there! Thank you for taking the time to look at my page! Finding the right therapist can be a daunting process. So, my hope is that I can do my part to help you to feel comfortable...remove some of the awkwardness from the process...and ideally, have you feeling motivated and excited about starting your therapeutic journey! A little bit about me and how I approach the therapeutic process... Without question, one of the comments I hear most from clients is that they're always surprised by how much they actually ENJOY our sessions —even when working through some of their most difficult challenges. I jokingly tell people that my "superpower" is that I'm really good at making therapy feel like a great conversation between two people - and one of those people just HAPPENS to be a therapist who helps you work through the things that are keeping you stuck. Therapy should make you feel as though you are getting something out of this...and that you are growing, healing - and thriving - because of it. I've been fortunate to be able to help people from all walks of life and what I have learned is that regardless of background, culture, socioeconomic status, or life circumstances, people want many of the same things—meaningful relationships, resilience through life's challenges, and a sense of purpose/fulfillment. So, whether you're facing personal challenges, professional pressures, or both, my goal is to help you get on the path where you can finally feel like you not only have a handle on this thing called Life - but that you are THRIVING in it!

Each person brings a unique set of experiences and challenges. I partner with you to meet you where you are and help you achieve the personal or professional goals that matter most. Whether you’re managing stress and anxiety, feelings of depression, ADHD, or navigating life transitions, I combine empathic listening with practical strategies and a touch of humor to make growth both meaningful and manageable. Many of my clients are ambitious professionals and individuals who are accustomed to striving for excellence while privately carrying stress, self-doubt, or a relentless pressure to do more. I help clients understand and work with their inner rebel, the part that resists rigid expectations, pushes back against perfectionism, and longs for greater autonomy and authenticity. Together, we can harness this part of you as a source of resilience, creativity, and lasting growth rather than viewing it as something to overcome. I’m skilled at helping you identify both clear goals and the strengths you may overlook in yourself. Even when you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or discouraged, there are always strengths and insights we can build from, and I help bring those into focus. Together, we will clarify goals, strengthen coping skills, and develop strategies that support decision-making, confidence, and emotional balance.

Welcome—I’m so glad you’re here. With over 20 years of experience in the mental health field, I am dedicated to helping individuals, couples, and families navigate life’s complexities, strengthen their connections, and heal. As a bilingual Marriage and Family Therapist (English/Spanish), my practice is rooted in deep cultural humility and respect. Through two decades of community advocacy and working alongside diverse populations, I’ve learned that healing is never one-size-fits-all. Your story, culture, and unique background matter deeply to the therapeutic process. Whether you are looking to rebuild trust in your relationship, navigate a major life transition, or break generational patterns, I offer a compassionate, non-judgmental space where you and your loved ones can feel truly seen, heard, and supported.

Welcome! I am Mary Klein. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the States of Pennsylvania and West Virginia. I have worked in agency settings along in a Federal Qualified Health Center and private practice. I believe that everyone has the potential to lead a fulfilling and balanced life. I will provide a safe and supportive environment where you can explore your thoughts and feelings without judgment. Whether you're facing challenges related to anxiety, relationships, or personal growth, I am here to guide you on your journey to wellness. Together, we can uncover insights, develop coping strategies, and empower you to achieve the change you seek. I understand that dealing any type of lifestyle adjustments can lead to anxiety and depression. Symptoms can can be really persistent and tough, and I’m here to help you through it. We can work together to explore strategies that can help you manage your symptoms of anxiety and depression. Please know that it is completely normal to feel overwhelmed, and seeking help is a strong and positive step you are making for yourself.

I've always believed that most people aren't broken, they're stuck. And stuck is something we can work with. For 15 years I have worked with a wide range of people: veterans carrying wounds that never got proper attention, couples trying to find their way to a healthier relationship, individuals wrestling with OCD or trauma or habits they can't seem to shake, and families navigating transitions that turned their world upside down. I tend to be direct yet compassionate in the way approach therapy and to what my clients are dealing with. The best complement for me is when a client tells me how they felt seen and heard unlike they have had previously. I have a particular place in my heart for those living between worlds - racial minorities, expats, and members of immigrant communities who are navigating the push and pull of various socio-cultural forces. I understand that experience from the inside, not just from a textbook. If you are someone who is ready to engage honestly and wants a clinician who will meet you with both expertise and genuine care, please reach out.

Hi, I'm Elvan Kama Kurtz, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Pennsylvania and the founder of Praxis Relationship Therapy. I work with adult individuals and couples who feel stuck in painful relationship patterns and want real, meaningful change. My professional journey began with a double major in Psychology and Sociology at Koc University Istanbul, Turkiye and continued with my master's degree in Family Therapy at Drexel University in the United States. I've spent over a decade working with individuals and couples navigating communication breakdowns, sexual intimacy issues, betrayal trauma and affair recovery, depression, anxiety, grief, life transitions, workplace and caregiver burnout, parent and adult child relationship dynamics, parents trying to conceive, narcissistic abuse recovery, and complex relationship challenges. The word praxis means turning theory into practice, and that's exactly how I approach therapy. In our work together, we don't just talk about your relationships. We actively work on them. I'm bilingual in English and Turkish, and as a dual citizen of Turkiye and the U.S., I warmly welcome clients from diverse cultural and relational backgrounds. I offer telehealth across Pennsylvania and in-person sessions in Swarthmore. I'm a proud mom of two rescue dogs, powered by coffee, great music, and dark humor. I have huge respect for art and artists, and an endless curiosity about the world. I truly love traveling and meeting people from different cultures and learning their stories along the way!

Hi, I'm Zora, a trauma-informed, person-centered therapist who believes real clinical work and genuine warmth can coexist. I follow your lead, while adjusting my approach based on what actually helps you and I make sure you always feel in control of the pace, especially when things get hard. However, I won't just sit back and nod, I'll gently challenge you and help you unpack the difficult things, all within a space that feels safe enough to actually do that work. I take clinical, evidence-based practice seriously and everything I do is grounded in solid training paired with real empathy. I also believe in the power of laughter, so don't be surprised if humor finds its way into even the harder conversations. My practice is a space for people ready to do honest work on anxiety, trauma, relationships, or whatever else life is throwing at them.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 10 years of experience working in the fields of substance use and mental health. I am also a Certified Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor (CAADC), with extensive experience supporting individuals struggling with substance use disorders, mood disorders, personality disorders, trauma, and other mental health challenges. My approach to treatment is grounded in trauma-informed care and a strong belief in the power of self-awareness. I believe meaningful change begins when individuals take the time to understand themselves, their experiences, and how past events have shaped their thoughts, behaviors, and patterns. Through this process of insight and reflection, individuals can begin to develop healthier coping strategies and create lasting change. While therapy can provide guidance, support, and tools for growth, I also emphasize the importance of personal commitment and motivation in the recovery process. When individuals are willing to engage in that work, therapy can become a powerful space for healing, growth, and transformation.

I have been working with individuals, families, couples and groups for over 20 years as they navigate a wide variety of struggles and challenges. Together, we will work to set goals, identify obstacles and barriers to success, and strive to make positive changes that can enhance overall quality of life. Change can be difficult. As such, my aim is to provide a supportive and validating environment where positive transformation can occur. I have worked with individuals who are experiencing anxiety, depression, grief/bereavement, relationship issues/challenges, self-esteem issues, life transition and adjustment struggles, divorce, substance misuse, obsessive compulsive related behaviors and thoughts, anger, Bipolar Disorder, intimate partner violence, behavioral issues in children/teens, trauma and PTSD, sexual issues, suicidal and self-harming thought, and more. I also have experience working this those who are living with more complex challenges, such as personality disorders (Borderline, Narcissistic and Antisocial Personality Disorders), psychosis, Schizophrenia, Schizoaffective Disorder, those court mandated to treatment, individual working in high risk/stress professions (i.e. first responders, law enforcement, corrections, etc...), and other mental health difficulties.

Welcome! I'm Damaris, a bilingual (English/Spanish) Licensed Professional Counselor dedicated to helping older adolescents and adults navigate life's challenges with compassion and hope. I believe healing begins with feeling heard, understood, and supported. I provide a warm, culturally responsive, and nonjudgmental space where I enjoy getting to know your unique story, building on your strengths, and helping you develop practical skills to create meaningful, lasting change. Together, we'll work toward the goals that matter most to you.

Life rarely comes with a roadmap, and lately, just getting through your daily checklist might feel like an uphill battle. Maybe you are constantly doubting yourself, feeling hijacked by anxiety, or realizing that the way you’ve been coping with stress or anger just isn't working anymore. If you are a teenager, college student, adult, or an exhausted parent trying to handle a massive life transition by trial and error, I want you to know two things: your feelings make complete sense, and you do not have to figure this out by yourself.

If you've been feeling overwhelmed, stuck, anxious, emotionally exhausted, or like you're carrying more than you can manage on your own, therapy can be a place to slow down, make sense of what's happening, and begin moving toward the life you want. Whether you're working through anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, recovery, therapy can provide a place to better understand what you're experiencing, build practical coping skills, and create meaningful, lasting change. My goal is to help you feel comfortable and overcome hurdles. Here you'll have space to be honest without fear of judgment while also learning practical skills you can use outside of therapy. I believe the most meaningful progress happens not only during our sessions, but in the small moments between them as you begin applying what you've learned in your everyday life. Most importantly, you don't have to show up as your “perfect” self. Come as you are—whether you're hopeful, skeptical, anxious, or simply unsure where to begin. This is a down-to-earth space where you can be yourself, and together we'll work toward helping you feel more confident, resilient, and like yourself again!

“The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change.” — Carl Rogers I believe so many of us already have the capacity to become our best selves, but something gets in the way. Past experiences, anxiety, patterns we’ve learned, or ways we’ve had to cope that no longer serve us. I work with children, teens, adults, and parents who feel stuck or held back in some way, and are ready to start understanding why. Together, we look at what’s underneath those patterns and begin to gently remove the things that are no longer helping you grow. My approach is warm, supportive, and real. I want you to feel comfortable showing up exactly as you are, while also helping you move forward in a way that feels more aligned and authentic to you. Therapy isn’t about becoming someone completely different. It’s about coming back to yourself, with more clarity, confidence, and the ability to move through life in a way that feels better. If you’re ready to step into that version of yourself, I’d love to connect.

Hello! My name is Gena and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the state of Pennsylvania. I received my master’s degree in Marriage and Family therapy from Northcentral University specializing in general family therapy. I believe that we all have unique strengths that can aid in healing. Sometimes these strengths are hidden, undiscovered, or simply not utilized. My goal is to help you find your strength and power again to navigate through the difficulties that life can bring.

I have 32 years of experience providing counseling. I use cognitive behavioral therapy, stressing that what we think determines what we feel and what we do. For many reasons, people learn unrealistic or destructive thoughts that cause them problems in their lives. Therapy works towards more realistic thinking, and avoiding old and destructive thinking. As I like to say, "therapy is a conversation with a destination," and realistic thinking is that destination. While I am a Christian, I am not trained as a Christian Counselor. I am a "Counselor who is a Christian." My training is secular, and I regularly see people or all faiths, or none at all. I do not offer court ordered services, nor do I do assessments for custody, or any other legal purpose. Unfortunately, I cannot accept Medicare, or Medicare based plans. The world is changing, and more and more people are reaching out. I am seeing more men that have been in abusive relationships. There are also more people dealing with loss. Coming to my office is not like going to a big mental health clinic where you just another number on a spreadsheet. In my care, you are a person, and you'll be treated like one.

I have been practicing since 2014 and have worked in a variety of contexts within the scope of therapy- ranging from children, couple's work, adults, teenagers, and the aging population. I deliver an authentic approach to therapy that punctuates the importance of the relationship between client and therapist as the primary mechanism for change. I believe all clients deserve to be met with dignity and respect and try to convey that in sessions.

Hi, I’m Mimi, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, navigating a life transition, experiencing stress or anxiety, or simply seeking a space to better understand yourself, I’m here to support you. Over the past four years, I’ve provided therapy in outpatient behavioral health, substance use treatment, higher education, and private practice settings. These experiences have allowed me to support individuals from diverse backgrounds and across a range of life experiences. I especially enjoy working with adolescents, college students, and young to middle-aged adults. I’m also passionate about providing culturally responsive, affirming care to individuals within the BIPOC community. I believe everyone deserves the opportunity to experience emotional wellness, personal growth, and greater clarity. Healing is a journey that takes time, support, and self-reflection. At Ponder and Process Counseling Services, LLC, I provide a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where you can explore challenges, process life experiences, gain insight, strengthen coping skills, and develop the tools needed to create meaningful and lasting change. When I’m not working with clients, I enjoy reading, spending time with family, and taking long walks with my dog. These activities help me stay grounded and present—qualities I strive to bring into each therapy session. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable showing up as your authentic self and know that you will be met with compassion, respect, and understanding.

My counseling style is empathic and conversational, grounded in respect, sensitivity, and compassion. We'll incorporate your experiences, feelings, and values into a meaningful life story. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, narrative, and evidence-based strategies while allowing space for rediscovery, growth, and repair. I specialize in depression, self-esteem, substance use and misuse, men's mental health, and relationship issues. Relationships are often the most important things in our lives, and all treatment holds this at its core. When we pursue change, we strengthen our relationships and become better partners, parents and friends. I strive to meet the client where they're at and tailor the approach based on their needs. My style is empathic and supportive. We will figure out where and how you'd like to make changes, uncover the patterns that have kept you stuck, and do the rewarding work of letting go of the things that aren't working for you anymore.

I believe in meeting people where they are, perpetuating meaningful and supportive connection. My specialty includes working with individuals/families that have experienced emotional and physical abandonment and/or are healing from narcissistic abuse in either parental/romantic/sibling relationships. In addition, I work with individuals who are struggling with the following: mood disorders, personality disorders, intimate partner violence, as well as those who have caused harm in relationships, post-traumatic stress disorder, ADHD, betrayal trauma, and substance use disorder. My approach is grounded in trauma-informed care, meaning that I prioritize a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental environment for my clients to explore and process their experiences. I have extensive experience working with individuals who have experienced abuse, neglect, and trauma, in addition to the consequences of that trauma.

I believe you are the ultimate expert on your own life. As a person-centered, solution-focused therapist, my role isn't to give you the answers. Instead, I partner with you to identify your unique goals, uncover your hidden strengths, and build actionable solutions that create lasting, positive change I hi. Most clients that join a session find me warm, nurturing and accepting while teaching you new skills of coping with the challenges of life. Mindfulness is an integral part of the strategies of being present and working through life stressors, anxiety and worry of overthinking and intrusive thoughts.

I have been working in the field of counseling since 2007. Specialties include: Teenagers and young adults with anxiety, depression, borderline personalities, and LGBTQ+.

I have worked in the field of drug and alcohol, private practice, school settings doing wrap-around, and inpatient settings. In my downtime, I enjoy coaching soccer and reffing, along with many other sports, with my 7 kids and 2 grandbabies.
