Hello! I'm Leah, a Licensed Professional Counselor with 22 years of experience providing compassionate, supportive mental health care to adults, teens, and families. I’m licensed in both Missouri and Pennsylvania, and throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of helping people navigate challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma, family conflict, and personality disorders. My approach is warm, genuine, and collaborative. I believe that feeling heard and understood is an important part of the therapeutic process, and I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients can be comfortable being themselves. Whether someone is working through a difficult transition, navigating relationships, healing from past experiences, or simply feeling stuck, I enjoy helping clients better understand themselves, build on their strengths, and develop practical tools to create meaningful and lasting change.

Hi, I’m Lynn Hakin. I bring an easygoing, down-to-earth personality paired with an honest, straightforward approach to my therapy practice. A proud double alumna of Lock Haven University, I graduated with my Bachelor’s in Psychology in 2019 and returned to earn my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in 2023. Since entering the mental health field in 2019, I’ve gained deep, diverse experience—navigating inpatient hospital care, substance abuse treatment centers, and community mental health within a prison setting. This journey has shaped the advocate I am today. Now, in my private practice, I combine that strong clinical background with clear, open communication to help clients navigate their own paths to healing.

Hello, I’m Stephanie. I work with people who feel disconnected from themselves or others, overwhelmed by emotion, or stuck in patterns they cannot quite make sense of. Therapy with me can be a place to slow down, look beneath the surface, and build more compassion, clarity, and self-trust at your own pace.

Hello! My name is Lindsey Peters. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with 12 years of experience providing outpatient mental health services. I am EMDR certified and specialize in working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, and personality disorders. I believe therapy should be a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard and understood. My approach is individualized to each person’s needs, with a focus on building trust, developing healthy coping skills, processing difficult experiences, and creating meaningful, lasting change. I am passionate about helping clients better understand themselves, overcome challenges, and work toward a healthier and more fulfilling life.

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania who provides clinical care to children, adolescents, young adults, and families through telehealth. My practice is grounded in trauma-informed, person-centered care, through utilizing an eclectic approach to tailor interventions to each individual. I specialize in supporting clients recovering from traumatic experiences and childhoods, LGBTQ+ issues, anxiety, mood concerns, and attachment difficulties, along with general mental health concerns.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist with specialized education and training in trauma-informed care. I believe most human suffering stems from the stress and trauma of existing within oppressive societal systems that seek to disconnect us from ourselves and others. I am deeply committed to examining, dismantling, and providing space to heal from these destructive systems. The therapeutic relationship should offer a safe environment to process chronic stress and trauma, explore the survival strategies you have developed, and build new skills that serve your present life. I am particularly interested in the mind-body connection—specifically regarding chronic stress and the nervous system—and I continually integrate somatic practices into my work with clients. As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, I understand how crucial it can be to find a therapist who understands the unique experience of navigating a heteronormative world. I have experience working in gender-affirming and HIV+ healthcare settings with trans, non-binary, gay, lesbian, and queer clients. I am dedicated to providing intersectional care across race, class, gender, religion, ethnicity, age, disability status, and all other identities. This means I will always consider how your various identities interact and influence how you move through and are treated in this world. If you are interested in a free 15-minute phone consultation, please schedule your first session with at least a week's notice so that we have time to connect. I will reach out prior to the scheduled appointment. I offer sliding scale (for private-pay clients) and weekend time slots on an as-needed basis, which we can discuss during the phone consultation.

I'm Trish — a licensed clinical social worker with extensive experience in trauma, anxiety, depression, OCD, personality disorders, and the kind of stuck feeling that can seem impossible to explain to someone who hasn't lived it. My background is deep in complex, high-stakes mental health work, and I bring that clinical grounding into a private practice setting that feels nothing like a clinical office. I work with adults who are genuinely ready to understand themselves better and make real changes. If you're looking for someone who will listen carefully and also tell you the truth, you're in the right place. I also accept several major insurance plans, so therapy doesn't have to mean a full out-of-pocket commitment.

Hi, I’m Robyne, an intuitive trauma-informed therapist dedicated to helping individuals heal, grow, and reconnect with themselves.

I specialize in working with unresolved trauma, complex PTSD, ADHD, anxiety, and depression. My approach is compassionate and straightforward.

Taking the time to start therapy and acknowledge our own personal struggles is the first, and often times, most difficult step in the healing process.

If you’ve ever felt like the weird friend or been met with stunned silence after dropping some blunt commentary and cynical humor—welcome home. You’ve officially found your place. You may be starting to figure out that adulthood is rarely the clean, linear journey we were promised. When dating, relationships, career, marriage, or kids, don't go according to plan, it can leave you feeling at times lost and uncertain about your future (especially when it feels like everyone around you has it all figured out). Whether you are navigating the identity shifts of your twenties, the burnout of your thirties and forties, or redefining your purpose later in life, your complexity is welcome here. My style combines deep clinical expertise with real-talk human connection. I bridge the gap between structured trauma healing and deep-dive self-discovery by integrating EMDR, psychodynamic therapy, and Jungian shadow work to help you understand what's happening beneath the surface. I also specialize in psychedelic and ketamine-assisted therapies for women ready to break through stubborn patterns. I leave the sterile, blank-stare vibe at the door: my approach is direct, exceptionally warm, and grounded in wit. Bring your unfiltered thoughts and most chaotic weeks into this room—we will face them head-on, with equal parts science and soul. *See more at www.psychey.com

These experiences have shaped my client-centered, practical, and empathetic approach to therapy. I tend to keep therapy pretty conversational and relaxed. I don't think therapy should feel like something you have to dread each week. Sometimes we'll have a serious emotional conversation, sometimes we'll problem solve, sometimes we'll laugh, and sometimes you might just need a place to let everything out. My goal is to make therapy a place where you can be yourself while we figure out the best way to help you reach your goals.

I have worked in an inpatient behavioral health center for the last 15 years which has provided me a great opportunity to gain experience with most of the reasons why someone would seek therapy. I prefer to not take the role of the "expert" in therapy and feel it is important to have a collaborative approach. That doesn't mean that I won't challenge you or point out maladaptive behavioral patterns/thought processes. I pride myself on being personal and authentic while keeping the focus on you.

Hi, I’m Dr. Catherine T. Revak, DSW, LCSW—but please, call me Cate. My path to becoming a therapist wasn’t a traditional one, and each chapter of my life has shaped how I show up for clients today. I served in the United States Air Force and spent many years in the financial services industry, experiences that taught me how to navigate complexity, hold difficult conversations, and remain present during times of stress and uncertainty. Later, I returned to school at the University of Pennsylvania, where I studied Gender, Sexuality, and Women’s Studies, and completed both my master’s and doctoral degrees in social work. My clinical training focused on veterans’ mental health, grief, loss, and bereavement. My time working at the VA and in hospice care deeply influenced my approach to therapy, reinforcing the importance of compassion, attunement, and the healing power of being truly witnessed. In therapy, I strive to create a space where you feel safe, seen, and supported. I draw from psychodynamic, narrative, and trauma-informed approaches, but at the heart of my work is the therapeutic relationship itself. Whether you are navigating grief, transition, or uncertainty, I walk alongside you as you find meaning, connection, and a way forward that honors your experience.

You're not alone in wanting to feel more connected, understood, and at peace. I'm here to walk alongside you as you navigate life’s challenges and rediscover your strength.

I have been through much adversity and I feel the most fulfilled when I am helping others. I am kind, non judgmental, and follow Carl Roger's unconditional positive regard.
