Hello! I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Pennsylvania. I received my masters in Clinical Mental Health from Indiana University of Pennsylvania. I am a doctorial candidate; working towards a PhD in Counseling Education and Supervision. I have been practicing for over 25 years with individuals with a substance use disorder in in-patient facilities, as well as private practice working with children 8 years old through adults; assisting them in becoming the best version of themself with skills to manage their future. The counseling session ultimately belongs to the client...not the counselor.

Hi I am Amelinda. Are you feeling anxious, stressed, overwhelmed? Has the burden of life got you feeling down? Maybe you experienced a recent loss or work has become too stressful. Are you struggling in your relationship? I have been a therapist for 16yrs and have helped thousands of people overcome their unwelcome feelings and get back to being themselves again. Together we will work to process through stressors and past trauma that is contributing to these negative feelings. I use a cognitive behavioral approach to help develop more adaptive ways of thinking thereby reducing unwanted symptoms. I look forward to working with you!

I’m a therapist who works best with people who’ve spent years putting everyone else first and are finally ready to start showing up for themselves in ways that actually matter. Therapy with me looks like a conversation. It's honest and down-to-earth. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, clear, and connected to who you actually are—not who you’ve had to become.

Welcome! I’m Julie, a licensed clinical psycologist, with a good sense of humor and a non-judgmental approach to therapy. I work s with individuals across the lifespan, as well as families, navigating a wide range of life experiences and mental health concerns. My goal is to create a welcoming, comfortable, and nonjudgmental space where people can show up as they are and feel safe bringing whatever they may be struggling with. Sometimes it can be difficult to know where to start, or even to imagine how to put certain experiences into words. You don't have to have it all figured out before coming to therapy, and you don't have to worry that what you're carrying is too much or too complicated to talk about. I have specialized training in trauma treatment (including being trained in Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), an evidence-based treatment for PTSD). However, I have diverse clinical experience including working with trauma and PTSD, anxiety, depression, schizophrenia, personality disorders, relationship concerns, and family dynamics, and I am ready to help you with anything you bring to the table. Whether you are working through longstanding difficulties, navigating a recent challenge, trying to understand patterns in your life or relationships, or simply looking for support, I welcome the opportunity to work alongside you. You deserve a space where all parts of your experience can be acknowledged, understood, and explored without judgment. I know starting therapy can be daunting or scary, and that’s okay. We just start with a conversation, whenever you are ready.

I have had the privilege of walking alongside couples and families through some of their most difficult seasons, helping marriages rebuild trust, communication, and emotional connection after deep hurt and trauma. Over the years, I have supported children recovering from the effects of trauma and sexual abuse, guiding them toward safety, stability, and renewed confidence. These experiences have strengthened my commitment to providing compassionate, trauma‑informed care that honors each client’s story. My background in Christian counseling further allows me to support clients who desire faith‑based guidance as they work toward restoration and healing.

As a licensed therapist in Pennsylvania, I bring 16 years of dedicated experience supporting individuals, couples and families through complex life challenges. I specialize in addressing depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, and personal growth. I am passionate about supporting individuals, couples, children, adolescents, and families that are struggling with family conflict, self-esteem, anxiety, depression, parenting, and behavioral concerns. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family and two doodles.

I am a veteran of the helping professions, having served since 1982 in some capacity or another, and I still find excitement in the possibility of helping those who need such assistance. I am currently licensed in two states, both North Carolina and Pennsylvania. I find many people respond to my ability to simply listen and that shows that they do not often feel they have been heard and sometimes this is all that is necessary to start the journey to begin healing. Certainly more is often required, and helping people connect with effective treatments whether provided by myself or not is the best help that can be given.

I'm a grateful and spiritually oriented counselor who loves his work. I've a passion for helping people who have been mistreated, and those who are in a love relationship that is struggling due to life stress and in need of solid relationship education. Not much is life as valuable as the primary relationships of our life, and the discovery of how to find the answers to the big questions of life.

Are you ready to move forward and make positive meaningful changes in your life? I promise to treat you with respect and dignity acting as your biggest cheerleader motivating you to heal, move forward, and reach your goals. Change is possible. I would be honored to serve as your therapist.

I am dedicated to helping adults navigate their struggles with anxiety and depression by providing consistent support through weekly or bi-weekly sessions. These sessions offer a structured and safe space for clients to explore their emotions, identify patterns, and develop effective coping strategies. By working together regularly, we can make meaningful progress in managing symptoms, building resilience, and enhancing overall well-being. My goal is to empower clients to regain control over their lives and cultivate a sense of peace and balance. I know what it is like to feel out of control of your own life.

I’m Pam Sykes, a mental health provider with more than 12 years of experience offering online counseling to teens and adults, including individual and couples counseling.

My work is informed by real-life experiences, which allows me to approach therapy with authenticity, compassion, and genuine understanding. My approach is rooted in empathy and collaboration, creating a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and patterns at a pace that feels right for you.

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.

Hi, I’m Brittany — a licensed professional counselor in Pennsylvania who helps women heal from trauma, break free from intrusive thoughts, and manage high-functioning anxiety without burning themselves out. Many of my clients appear “put together” on the outside but feel overwhelmed on the inside—carrying childhood trauma, people-pleasing patterns, chronic worry, or perfectionism that never seems to let up. If this sounds like you, you’re not alone, and you don’t have to keep powering through it. When I’m not working with clients, you can usually find me outdoors with my family and dog, reading, traveling, going to concerts or comedy shows, or doing a Bible study. These things help me stay grounded — and I bring that same grounded energy into sessions.

Hi, I'm Amber (she/her)! I have over 15 years of experience! I’m a therapist and clinical supervisor with extensive experience supporting individuals through substance use, mental health concerns, life transitions, and relationship challenges. Throughout my career, I’ve worked with people from many different backgrounds, including individuals involved with the court system and LGBTQ+ individuals. These experiences have shaped my belief that everyone deserves to feel seen, heard, respected, and supported without judgment. My approach is grounded in trauma-informed, feminist, and social justice perspectives. Outside of my professional life, I’m a mom and a spouse, and much of my time is spent at home with my family. I understand that life can be messy, complicated, overwhelming, and sometimes beautiful all at the same time. I bring that same understanding and humanity into my work with clients.
