I am a License Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Pennsylvania. I received my Masters from Case Western Reserve and have been practicing for 8 years. I am committed to empower and help people heal to become their best selves. I help young adults struggling with career stress and burnout become the best versions of themselves. My counseling style is a warm and interactive approach focusing on ineffective behaviors, habits and beliefs. I believe in taking a collaborative approach to help clients reach their goals.
I am a licensed professional counselor with over 12 years of experience helping individuals and families navigate trauma, abuse recovery, depression, anxiety, and life transitions. In my practice, I provide a compassionate and empowering space for clients to process difficult experiences, strengthen boundaries, and reconnect with their sense of self.
My approach integrates evidence-based therapy with holistic practices, honoring the mind-body connection. I work extensively with women of color, parents, and individuals seeking healing from complex family dynamics. Clients often describe my style as direct yet nurturing—I aim to help you feel both supported and equipped with practical tools for lasting change.
Healing is not just about surviving hardship; it’s about creating a life you feel aligned with. Whether you are navigating trauma recovery, relational stress, or simply seeking a safe space for growth, I am here to walk alongside you in that journey.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 45 years of experience. I am certified as a trainer in Youth Mental Health First Aid. Most of my work has been in outpatient treatment but I also worked in various settings which include residential treatment, child protective services and school social work. Working in a variety of settings with multi-disciplines has led me to appreciate that there are many facets that make us who we are. I see my role as a therapist is to help bring all these aspects together yet keep what we value at the forefront. My favorite inspiration lies in the saying, "People will forget what you say but they will never forget how you made them feel". I aspire to help you feel validated while you navigate life's challenges. One of my greatest professional accomplishments has been to start an Aevidum Club at a school which aims to reduce the stigma of mental health. I believe that partnering in a no judgement zone is key to fostering trust.
When not doing therapy, I love spending time with my husband, two daughters and our dog. Cooking, planting flowers and going to our annual beach trip are some of my favorite stress relievers. I am here to partner with you on your journey of change and reflection.
The journey of healing begins with a strong therapeutic alliance based on trust and mutual respect. My worldview and core values determine my approach to therapy and engaging with you. I strongly believe in a holistic approach to therapy: I consider the art and science of healing to support the whole person – body, mind, and spirit.
I have decades of rich and varied life experiences which inform my practice. I have worked in schools with children as an educator with a great understanding of human development, I am a grass-roots level community development social worker and a mental health clinician in community behavioral health.
I am licensed in Pennsylvania with more than 16 years of professional counseling experience. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.

I worked in HIV services in central Pennsylvania and the Bronx, New York in the 2000s before completing PhD course work and candidacy at The Ohio State University College of Social Work.

I have extensive experience in treating trauma, depression and anxiety, among other mental health challenges. I proudly support LGBQTIA+ and neurodiverse individuals and communities.
Hello, and welcome! My introduction to the counseling field began while working within therapeutic group homes that served children through adults experiencing mental health struggles. This experience, both enriching and meaningful, inspired my interest in pursuing counseling. I was deeply moved by the varying degrees of challenging life experiences that we are all tasked with navigating and the ways we attempt to cope, gain insight from, and hopefully transform our adverse circumstances. I received my Master of Social Work degree from Portland State University and since, I’ve had the opportunity to assist a diverse range of clients in both inpatient treatment and outpatient therapy settings, and more recently, at a college counseling clinic at the University of Montana. Within these programs, I’ve helped clients address anxiety, depression, grief and loss, trauma, academic challenges, relationships, identity changes, sexuality, and general life stressors.
I am grateful that I can work to help individuals navigate the evolving nature of their lives by providing unconditional positive regard, encouragement, and supportive guidance.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (PA & WV) with 10 years of experience in outpatient mental health. I specialize in supporting individuals — both adolescents and adults — navigating the aftermath of trauma, loss, adoption/foster care challenges, grief, anxiety, and depression. With children and teens, I am certified in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF‑CBT), integrating trauma‑informed strategies tailored to younger clients. With adults, I use trauma-informed interventions alongside cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), adapting my approach to each person’s unique story, strengths, and pace.
Being adopted myself has deeply shaped my passion for adoption and foster care work — not just as a professional interest, but from lived experience. I understand the layers of identity, connection, loss, and belonging that come with these journeys, and I bring that insight to my practice with empathy and sensitivity.
I also maintain ongoing training in areas such as grief work, anxiety, depression, and relational dynamics to ensure I’m bringing current practices to our work.

My name is Christen Yassin and I have been in this field for 18 years. I have a wealth of experience and love to help people become their best selves. I am a great listener.

I also have a lot of experience in family therapy and working with children and young adults.
Hello! I have almost 30 years experience in the mental health field. I have worked with individuals and families struggling and with depression, anxiety, life transitions, self esteem issues and more. I specifically find meaningful work with families in the LGBTQ community who have difficulty navigating life in this world of hate and prejudice. Life transitions such as losing a partner, a job, moving or becoming an empty nester are examples of other issues that I have guided my clients through over the years. I am open to helping anyone who wants to make changes to have a more meaningful and happier life!
Hello. I look forward to working with you. My own background is one of growing up on farms, having little money and ambitious dreams. I did not know what it was but I knew I wanted to go to college and get out of the tobacco fields. My dreams came true. I ended up being a psychologist and a teacher, spending decades working in residential treatment then in schools, the last 13 years working with preschoolers and their families to prepare them to succeed in school. As a teacher, I taught many college and university courses as well as workshops, most recently to address grief and trauma. I am also an artist, a dancer and a writer and like to bring co-creativity to others.
In the early 1990's, I felt led to live and work at or near the world center of Quakers called Pendle Hill in PA. There I studied and taught Arts and Spirituality while also serving as a Psychologist in nearby schools. I came to see the importance of Co-Creativity (creating together a piece of life we truly want to live for). My specialties in the Arts have been writing, visual arts and dancing/movement from a "no wrong way" perspective. I incorporate these into the therapy process as they become beneficial.
For much of my life, I have also been engaged with my own therapeutic process. Having been the client for several years, gives me the perspective of what might be important to you as we work together, never assuming I know or forgetting to ask you.
In our sessions, I want to hear about you, find our starting points and from there develop action plans each session to work on the goals needed to find the life you dream of and are willing to work toward.

Hey, I’m Mariah! I work with women who look like they have it together on the outside but internally feel exhausted, anxious, overwhelmed, and stuck in patterns they can’t seem to break. A lot of my clients are the ones everyone depends on. They’re successful, self-aware, high-achieving, and used to pushing through. But underneath that, they’re overthinking everything, emotionally drained, struggling in relationships, and wondering why they still feel so stuck despite years of trying to “work on themselves.”
Many have done therapy before and left frustrated because they gained insight but nothing actually changed.
My approach is honest, direct, and focused on getting to the root of what’s keeping you stuck — not just helping you manage symptoms. I help clients understand the deeper patterns behind their anxiety, perfectionism, people-pleasing, emotional burnout, and relationship struggles so they can stop surviving life on autopilot.
I’m not the therapist who just sits quietly and nods for 50 minutes. I’ll challenge you, connect the dots, and help you make real shifts in the way you relate to yourself and others. I also offer private pay therapy for clients looking for more personalized care without the limitations insurance can place on treatment. Clients are able to use HSA/FSA funds to pay for services and are able to receive partial reimbursement through out-of-network benefits.
Immediate openings beginning January 1st. I have provided therapy for the past twenty years with clients who identify as LGBTQAI+. During these critical times my exclusive focus is treating the LGBTQAI+ community and a special compassion for transgender people. I treat adults within the LGBTQAI+ who suffer from depression and anxiety; PTSD and Complex PTSD, ASD, ADHD and other forms of trauma; co dependency, coming out and transitioning, relationships and family issues. I also specialize in the treatment of Dissociative Disorders. My main modalities are IFS informed therapy, narrative therapy, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing), trauma-informed therapies and traditional psychotherapy. I find re processing of trauma (EMDR) most effective of therapies for deep healing work of trauma. I provide individual therapy for adults age 18 to 80. I also support and am familiar with 12 step recovery.

Everyone deserves a journey of self-healing and self-discovery. In fact, allowing yourself to blossom is the avenue to experiencing self-love and meaningful connections with others.
I have worked in the field of mental health for over 15 years, but started researching and seeking methods of healing since my early teens. I attended the University of California, San Diego, followed by Naropa University in Boulder, Colorado, studying Clinical Psychology, Critical Gender Studies, and Transpersonal Psychology. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Certified EFT Practitioner.
I have experience assisting individuals with a range of issues including anxiety and mood disorders, trauma, addictions, end of life issues, and issues related to discrimination and marginalization. I am an experienced therapist, supervisor, and group facilitator in various settings. I have also instructed Graduate Level Psychology students, teaching courses on Transforming Addictions and Multicultural and Diversity Issues in Counseling.
Do you have a habit of taking care of everyone but yourself (your adorable animal companions included)? Are you having trouble creating space in your life to feel calm and find fulfillment? I help individuals looking to improve their relationships, mood, and overall life satisfaction. My approach to therapy focuses on building health, resilience, and connection – helping you move toward a life that feels vibrant and authentic. Together, we will focus on your strengths and potential for growth. I believe that healing is about more than fixing what is wrong. It’s about nurturing what’s already right! Whether you’re navigating anxiety, grief, life transitions, or simply feeling stuck, I’m here to walk alongside you.
In this process, I will provide a warm and accepting space with plenty of opportunities for you to develop the tools you need to thrive. Being in animal rescue for the past 9+ years and a photographer for the past 13+ years has given me a unique perspective on therapy. You can expect to be encouraged to use your creative skills and compassion in your journey to wellbeing. Congratulations on taking this step to be your best self, and know that I would be honored to help you move toward healing and growth.

If you want someone to hold you accountable, being direct and honest and the mirror to help see yourself clearly....then you found the right therapist.

Hello there, my name is Brandon Ballantyne. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. My clinical focus is in utilizing cognitive behavioral therapy with clients to alleviate various forms of mental and emotional distress. I provide supportive therapy to improve the understanding of internal relationships between thoughts, emotions, and actions. When our thoughts are recognized to be tangible elements, we realize the personal control we have over thinking better, feeling better, and coping in healthier ways.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who works with adults and young adults navigating anxiety, stress, life transitions, and the impact of past experiences. Many of my clients are high-functioning on the outside but internally feel overwhelmed, stuck in patterns, or unsure how to move forward.
I provide a direct, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can better understand how your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors are connected. My approach is grounded in evidence-based practices, including CBT, DBT, and trauma-informed care. I focus on helping you identify what’s maintaining your distress while also building practical tools you can use in your daily life.
In our work together, we won’t just talk about what’s going wrong—we’ll focus on what actually helps. This includes learning how to regulate emotions, challenge unhelpful thinking patterns, set boundaries, and respond more intentionally rather than reactively.
I also recognize that starting therapy can feel uncomfortable or uncertain, especially if you’re used to handling things on your own. My goal is to create a space where you feel understood, while also being challenged in a way that supports real growth.
If you’re looking for a therapist who is both supportive and straightforward, and who will help you develop real, usable skills—not just insight—this may be a good fit.
I have been practicing for 9 years and enjoy working with people from all different walks of life. I'm passionate about helping people live an authentic life and learn skills to manage their mental health. I enjoy creativity and getting outdoors.

Some of these approaches include CBT and ACT while keeping a trauma informed perspective. I enjoy grief work and helping people process through this challenging time.

Hello, I’m James.
Anxiety, stress, anger, relationship strain, and major life changes can make even capable people feel stuck, frustrated, or disconnected from the life they want to be living. My work focuses on helping adults better understand what is happening internally, develop practical coping skills, and make meaningful changes that hold up outside of the therapy session.
I specialize in working with anxiety, stress, anger management, stress, coping skills, men’s issues, Veterans’ issues and life transitions. Many of my clients are people who are used to handling things on their own but have reached a point where they want something to change. I offer a direct, supportive, and goal-focused approach that helps clients identify patterns, manage emotions more effectively, improve communication, and respond to challenges with more clarity and control.
Therapy with me is practical and collaborative. We will work together to understand what is keeping you stuck, build tools that fit your life, and create realistic steps toward feeling more steady, confident, and in control. Whether you are dealing with anxiety, irritability, relationship stress, work pressure, military or Veteran-related concerns, or a difficult life transition, you do not have to figure it out alone.
If you are ready for a therapist who will listen, be honest with you, and help you build practical strategies for change, I would be glad to work with you.

Do you feel like your life lacks meaning, significance, or depth? Do you often feel like you are only surviving and not thriving in life? I enjoy helping clients cultivate meaning making in their lives. Allow me to walk with you along your journey of reprioritization, goal setting, meaning making, and self-improvement. I strive to cultivate a judgement free space where clients feel safe to discuss whatever is having too great an impact on their life, offer easily implementable coping skills and strategies, discover short- and long-term strengths-based solutions, work with my clients in identifying meaning, and ways that meaning can be folding into consistent practices.
Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (PA, DE, NJ) living in Philadelphia. I've been a social worker for 9 years now. I'm here to help you work through the challenges in your life by exploring deep feelings, past experiences, and ongoing stressors in a safe and supportive way. I am here for you and cannot wait to get started!
*Please note- I am not currently conducting sessions in Spanish.
As your therapist, it’s my job to help you make positive, lasting change. This might feel easier said than done, but together, we’ll break down transformation into small steps. My approach emphasizes your nervous system and taking things at your pace. I’m here for your big emotions and your tiniest realizations. Through it all, I want you to feel supported and encouraged as you expand beyond self-imposed limits and into your true self. I obtained my Masters degree from Millersville University and have been in the mental health field for 20 years. I'm licensed in PA, MD, OH, NJ, FL, ID and SC.
I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 15 years of experience supporting adults who feel overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve them. Many of my clients are high-achieving, thoughtful individuals who look capable on the outside but feel exhausted or self-critical on the inside.
I use evidence-based approaches like CBT, ACT, DBT, trauma-informed care, and mindfulness to help clients build practical skills while also developing deeper self-understanding. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, more confident in your decisions, and less controlled by anxiety or old narratives.
Hi! I'm a Licensed Professional Counsellor (LPC) based in Pennsylvania. I received my Masters from Messiah University in Marriage, Couple and Family counseling and have been practicing for 6 years. I work with clients who may be struggling with anxiety, depression, and issues with relationships or family. As an experienced licensed professional counselor, it is my honor to assist you in exploring your core issues and move toward a healthy, fulfilling life.
If you feel stuck in patterns you know aren’t good for you—but can’t seem to break—you’re not alone. Maybe your mind won’t shut off. You overthink everything, question yourself constantly, or find yourself pulled back into the same relationships or habits, even when you know better. It’s exhausting… and frustrating. I help people understand why this happens and, more importantly, how to actually change it. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 20 years of experience working in mental health, including private practice, substance use, and online therapy.
My approach is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). We will identify the patterns keeping you stuck, challenge the beliefs that reinforce them and build tools you can actually use. My goal isn’t just for you to feel better in session—it’s for you to leave with the ability to stay better. Therapy should be active and purposeful.
While processing is important, real change happens when you’re willing to step outside your comfort zone and stay accountable to your growth. I’ll support you through that—but I will also challenge you when needed, because that’s where real change happens. If you’re ready to stop repeating the same cycles and start creating lasting change, I'm here to help!
Hi, I'm Cory Ian Shafer, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with my Masters in Counseling. I have been practicing professionally in the counseling field since 2005 and have worked in the mental health field since 1999.
I approach therapy primarily as a Jungian-Existentialist, however, I also realize that many clients may need different approaches to achieve their success, and because of that I also incorporate an eclectic approach towards therapy in addition to my primary school of thought, therefore I can utilize many different modalities and approaches of therapy depending on the what you need in your sessions.
My specializations are working with anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction and grief counseling. I also like to write a little bit and have published a few books concerning the human condition. On the personal side of things I lead a simple and quiet life, where I enjoy reading history, science fiction and philosophy books, playing the bass guitar, listening to music, traveling and amateur astronomy.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious or stuck? Wanting things to feel calmer, clearer or more manageable but not sure how to get there? Please understand that you do not have to navigate this alone. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who provides a supportive, non-judgmental space where you can slow down, feel heard, and begin processing what you are experiencing. I work with children, adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, life transitions, behavior difficulties and emotional regulation.
