Are you looking for therapy that is more than just friendly talk? Have you been looking for not only support and understanding from a therapist but also practical solutions? Then you have come to the right place. I am a psychologist with over 30 years of clinical experience. My specialization is cognitive-behavior therapy, which is the approach to therapy most supported by scientific research. Not only am I clinician but I am also a professor, teaching courses in counseling and research to doctoral students, and a published author, having written two books on applying scientific research to clinical work and academic papers on clinical psychology and neuropsychology. In my opinion, therapy works best when a strong understanding of human psychology is mixed with strong clinical skills, compassion and encouragement. One of my favorite endorsements from a past patient, and a statement that I think summarizes my clinical approach pretty well, is "Dr. Marston is a great psychologist. He can be tough sometimes but that is what I needed". I look forward to helping you!!

Hi there, I'm Katrina. I am a licensed professional counselor and I want to work with you to decrease symptoms of anxiety, depression, and other mental health difficulties by using evidence-based treatment. Together, we can determine what works best for you to get you back to balance. I am a cognitive behavioral therapist, but I approach therapy from a holistic approach addressing the needs of the mind and body.

I create a warm, safe environment to help you heal and grow. Let's work together!

Hello! My name is Heidi. Does it feel like life decisions are sometimes, mostly, or always difficult to make? Does it feel like others do not value those life decisions or put you down? Do relationships seem to just fall apart for no apparent reason? Is work-life balance overwhelming and exhaustive? Is it hard to be kind to yourself or even others? You are now in the right place at the right time to start feeling better! Being a human is simply, and quite frankly, incredibly complicated. Especially when life takes us through unexpected turns or navigates us to dead ends. Every single one of us will go through something at one point or another that will interrupt the journey significantly. Sometimes those experiences make us feel derailed and hopeless causing overwhelming depression, anxiety, anger, grief or other layers of emotions that just get in the way of.... well, life. This is when we say to ourselves... "Self. It's time". Entering into therapy should be a thoughtful decision. The relationship between you and your therapist needs to "click". I will take the time to walk those dark paths with you so you do not feel alone, no matter how stuck. Together we can discover how to manage all of those difficult emotions, thoughts, and behaviors... and what to do when they consume us. Inside this life-changing discovery process, we will do this together in a confidential, safe space, that will never cause emotions of insecurity or feeling judged. Trauma is very real. I promise to provide empathy and sensitivity with a strong focus on trauma-informed care. Together, we may examine our thought process through different therapeutic mediums which may include: talk therapy, journaling, worksheets, art, mindfulness, mindfulness, grounding, exposure therapy, integrated muscle relaxation techniques, and more. Therapy can be quite insightful and FUN! Who'da thunk! We will work on you... the WHOLE YOU. Together, we will learn multiple ways to create a positive life lens, promote growth, and illicit change to establish BALANCE. I look forward to working with you on this journey of life! Change will happen if you let it! Let's get to work!

Life is hard. Sometimes it feels like problems come one after another. It is overwhelming. You don't have to get through it alone. Therapy is a great place to talk about life's problems where you can say anything and not be judged. No matter what you’re facing, talking with someone can help.

From challenges with the overwhelming pressure of academic life, work life, career choices, relationship challenges, and more, I will be there to offer an objective perspective on your situation and provide healthy tips and resources to navigate it. My approach empowers personal growth while always ensuring you feel safe, seen, and heard. I work with adults as well as couples. Depending on your needs, I utilize CBT, DBT, and Reality Therapy approaches in sessions.

Hi! I'm an LCSW in Pennsylvania, originally born and raised in NYC. I am passionate about supporting others and providing a judgement free environment. I have experience working within an HIV clinic for the past 3.5 years. Prior to that, I worked in a family practice primary care site supporting families and individuals with their needs. My focus is primarily rooted in relationship issues, trauma & abuse, and generalized anxiety disorder. I utilize CBT and DBT with my clients to help promote a sense of independence and acceptance. A little bit about my style of therapy, I aim to make this experience feel as natural and open as possible. I find that people come into therapy with an expectation of being told how to deal with their concerns - when in fact, I want to walk along side you in this journey. We are learning about you together and finding what works best for you. I hope to be that support and tool in your life during this transitional period. I look forward to working with you!

I believe every one has their own unique potential in overcoming adversity. Life is not easy and often times we need support and someone to listen to our fears, hopes, dreams. We sometimes, need a nudge in a certain direction that we can't clearly see. I can help provide that nudge with whatever your are struggling with and provide insight on how to get there. I also do life coaching. Life coaching is different than therapy in that you may need guidance but not have a psychological disorder.

It doesn't matter if it's anxiety, depression, you're burned out, poor boundaries, OCD, addictions, relationship issues, grief and loss you name it we can handle it. You deserve to live your best life. If you are new to therapy don't worry. It's like talking to a good friend who is legally bound to not share a word you say. There are 3 reasons when I am legally bound to report, since I am a mandated reporter, 1. You threaten to kill the president 2. You threaten to harm yourself. 3. You threaten to harm someone else. Also, you won't be judged for anything you tell me. People do what they do for many reasons. Most of my clients say that I am very easy to talk to and that they feel safe sharing with me. I hope that you give me a shot! I look forward to going on a journey with you. Thanks for your time, Diane Smith

Greetings, my name is John Luke. I am a licensed clinical social worker and specialize in helping people to effectively manage anxiety, depression, and other mental health concerns using cognitive behavioral techniques. I have worked with a range of populations, nearly all ages, and also have experience with addiction treatment and life-coaching. I work with people to develop insight into the source of their problems, how their core beliefs about the world might be hindering their progress, and focus on their natural strengths to overcome those barriers with practical skills that generate sustainable change. Some of my other specialties include short-term, solution-focused therapy; cognitive behavioral therapy techniques; psychodynamic approaches; and marital counseling. Some of the problems I am particularly keen on solving with my clients include issues with self-image and confidence; dating and relationships; boundary-setting and assertive communication; as well as general anxiety management; and learning to identify and productively resolve emotional unrest. I am also very experienced in cognitive restructuring, which is just a fancy way of saying helping to change the way a person thinks about the world and their place in it. I also enjoy aiding people in goal setting and identification, meaning-making, and navigating family conflicts. If you feel any of this could be helpful or useful to you, please do not hesitate to reach out! (Note: I do work with couples, but only on a cash-pay basis. Also, I only work with ages 18+)

Are you having feelings of loneliness, depression, anxiety, you can't seem to get your life back on track or feel stuck and old ways are not helping? I empower people with the confidence they need to make the changes necessary to grow and feel better about themselves and their lives. Together we work on what fits best with your comfortability and at your pace. Making changes and the therapy setting can sometimes be overwhelming, but deciding to take that first step towards change shows initiative and determination to do so. You deserve to feel safe and comfortable with a therapist, my goal is to gain your trust, and build rapport, as well as compassion and empathy, to help you navigate the changes you are looking to make. I integrate different evidence-based practices that would fit your needs. I love doing art therapy, integrating fun ways to relax to help get to the root of the problem. I then integrate different ways to help change mindsets and how negative mindsets keep you from making changes and keep you stuck, I like to have you think, look at the big picture of the issue at hand and reassess throughout therapy to make sure you are reaching your goals and full potential.

Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who obtained my degree from Marywood University’s Graduate School of Social Work. I completed my undergraduate education at Cedar Crest College, with dual majors in Psychology and Sociology. I have provided counseling in many settings including the geriatric, non-profit and healthcare fields, for over 18 years. I also hold post-graduate certificates in Gerontology, and Palliative/End of Life Care. I am pursuing my doctorate in social work in a combined program through Kutztown and Millersville Universities. I believe in building a solid therapeutic relationship based on trust, empathy and respect using a variety of techniques, and building from a strengths-based perspective to help foster understanding, coping and change. My eclectic therapeutic techniques often include CBT, transformational and psychodynamic approaches, individualized in relation to each client’s need and provided through a trauma informed lens. I am experienced in individual, family, and group counseling. It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. My hope is to provide a safe, nonjudgemental environment for you to discover yourself and to start on the road to healing. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you! Best, Christina
