Hello! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) located in Pennsylvania. I obtained my Master’s degree from Carlow University and have been working in this field for five years. My focus is to support individuals who are struggling with anxiety, depression, complex trauma, and relationship challenges, guiding them towards reaching their maximum potential. In addition, I have experience working with individuals from various ethnic backgrounds, and I maintain a strong cultural awareness during counseling sessions.

For many years, I worked as a retail manager, where I gained valuable insight into human behavior, conflict resolution, and the importance of mentoring others through life's challenges. Those experiences taught me that every person has a unique story, and with the right support and perspective, they can discover the strength and wisdom they already possess. I approach each person with honesty, compassion, an open mind, and a willingness to think outside the box. Rather than offering one-size-fits-all solutions, I believe in helping people uncover the answers that align with their own journey, empowering them to recognize their strengths and make meaningful connections that foster growth and healing. My role is to walk alongside you as you navigate life's questions and challenges. Drawing from both my professional background and my own lived experiences, I strive to provide guidance, encouragement, and a safe space where you can gain clarity, build confidence, and move forward with purpose.

I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) and have worked as a therapist treating adults in individual and group therapy for 4 years. I specialize in anxiety, grief, and trauma. My approach includes therapies like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Prolonged Exposure, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Narriative Therapy, and Gestalt Therapy. I'm always looking to expand my approach to best support my clients. My experience has been with community mental heath, two CIRC programs, and providing short term grief therapy at the Medical Examiner's office. Each of these have provided me with greater understanding of the system of care of Philadelphia and the reality of navigating it especially when resources can be nonexistent for housing or other basic needs. My specialities in grief and trauma are two sides of the same coin - intense loss can be traumatic. This philosophy is central to how I approach supporting clients in their journey. Both need to be address to help the healing really start.

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. A great listener requires you to not only listen but to be able to output a great solution to the problem and to be highly empathetic to the issue; that's one of my strengths. I also have a lot of experience in family therapy and working with children and young adults.

I am a licensed therapist with 9 years of experience helping individuals navigate life’s challenges. My approach integrates therapeutic techniques, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, motivational interviewing. I believe together we can foster a safe, non-judgmental space where we can explore your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. With a background in trauma, anxiety, depression, crisis management, and relationship issues. I am dedicated to helping clients develop tools for lasting change. My goal is to work collaboratively with each person, tailoring my approach to their unique needs, and empowering them to achieve personal growth, emotional healing, and improved well-being. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, navigating a major life transition, or seeking to deepen your self-awareness, I am here to offer support, guidance, and understanding. Together, we can work towards a brighter, more fulfilling future.

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania, a National Certified Counselor (NCC), and a Certified Drug & Alcohol Counselor (CADC), with additional certification as a Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP). I hold a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Gannon University and have over six years of clinical experience across inpatient, partial hospitalization, IOP, and outpatient settings.
