Hello! My name is Catherine. I am a mom of 3 and I am a licensed clinical social worker. I have worked with children and adolescents for over 10 years and in working with them, i have worked with their families as well. I was previously a clinical supervisor, and I decided it was time to do what I do best, and that is help others through trauma informed care and working on self-worth and rebuilding relationships and attachments. Let's deep dive into your childhood to determine where those negative thoughts started, prove those beliefs are wrong and rebuild your new thought process while learning new coping skills. Let's focus on your strengths, not your weaknesses. Let's figure out how to get where you want to be i life, together.

Hi! I’m Nick, a Licensed Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania. I earned my Master of Science in Clinical Psychology from Millersville University in 2023, and previously completed my Bachelor of Arts degrees in Psychology and Criminology from Penn State University in 2020. I have worked in inpatient, outpatient, correctional, and child-focused settings. Across these roles, I’ve learned how differently people can experience similar situations, and how important it is to slow down and understand someone’s story before drawing conclusions. In our work together, I integrate IFS-informed and attachment-based perspectives with ACT, CBT, and DBT. I tailor my interventions to what would be most helpful for you, individually. However, more than any specific technique, I focus on building a steady, collaborative relationship. Therapy with me is a space where you can slow down and simply breathe. You don’t need to have everything figured out before starting. We begin where you are.

Hi, I'm Mimi. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania. I received my B.S. in Applied Organizational Behavior Psychology from Albright College and my M.A. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Messiah University. I’ve had the privilege of working in outpatient behavioral health, substance use treatment centers, higher education, and private practice, which has allowed me to support people from many different backgrounds and life experiences. I especially enjoy working with middle adolescents, college students, and young to middle-aged adults. I’m passionate about supporting individuals from the BIPOC community and creating a space where clients feel safe and accepted. My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and flexible. I draw from evidence-based practices such as Solution-Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and mindfulness techniques, tailoring our work together to fit your unique needs. I have a strong interest in addressing race-based trauma, family and relationship dynamics, attachment patterns, depression, anxiety, and life transitions. I believe everyone deserves the opportunity to experience mental clarity and emotional balance. At Ponder and Process Counseling Services, LLC, I provide a supportive environment where you can reflect, gain insight, and build the tools needed to make empowered decisions and enhance your overall well-being. Outside of my work, I enjoy reading, spending quality time with my family, and taking long walks with my dog.

I value balance and self-care, and I strive to model the same intentional living that I encourage in my clients.

I’m a licensed clinical social worker based in the suburbs of Philadelphia. I have a passion for working with adults who are 50 years of age and older, helping them navigate the unique physical, cognitive, mental, emotional, and social changes that are common to middle-aged and older adults. I recognized early in my social work practice that there are limited resources catered to these age groups, and I have strived to be a part of the growing movement to change that, particularly with improving access to mental health care. In addition to psychotherapy, I have experience working with older adults who reside within different levels of care in Life Plan communities / continuing care retirement communities (CCRCs). I have also worked in hospice care, at a community organization assisting older adults who are experiencing symptoms of hoarding disorder, and have undergone training with the International End of Life Doula Association (INELDA) to further develop a holistic approach to aging, dying, and death. Through my varied experiences and firm belief that all people should live and age well whenever possible, I hope to work with you to navigate any issues that are preventing you from living your best life!

Do you feel stuck in overthinking, anxiety, or constant worry—even when things “should” be fine? Or like you’re carrying stress all the time and can’t fully shut your mind off? I provide a supportive, affirming space to help you slow down, feel understood, and start feeling more grounded again. I work with individuals and couples who feel overwhelmed, emotionally drained, or disconnected—especially during life transitions, relationship stress, or seasons of burnout. Therapy with me is a place to sort through what’s been weighing on you and build practical tools you can actually use in real life. With couples, I help partners improve communication, break out of repeating cycles, and rebuild emotional safety, trust, and connection. I work with both heterosexual and LGBTQ+ couples, and I prioritize creating a space where each person feels heard and respected. With individuals, I support clients who want to manage anxiety, reduce rumination, strengthen boundaries, and feel more confident in their decisions and relationships. My style is supportive, honest, and collaborative—focused on insight and progress. If you’re ready to feel more clear, steady, and in control of your life and relationships, I’d be glad to work with you.

Many people come to therapy feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve them - whether that's anxiety, relationship struggles, substance use, or a lingering sense they've lost connection with who they truly are. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who works with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, relationship patterns, substance use concerns, life transitions, and questions of identity. I specialize in supporting clients experiencing substance use disorders, co-dependency, co-occurring mental health and substance use concerns, anxiety, depression, stress, relational patterns, shame, people-pleasing, identity exploration and rebuilding a healthy relationship with self, and religious or spiritual trauma. Many of my clients are working to untangle harmful patterns, rebuild trust with themselves, and create healthier relationships. I have particular interest in supporting individuals unpacking harmful religious experiences or high-control faith environments. Many clients I work with are navigating questions of identity, autonomy, and personal values after feeling pressure to conform to rigid belief systems. Many of the clients I work with are learning to trust their own voice again after years of feeling pressure to meet others' expectations. I understand how deeply faith, identity, family, and community can be intertwined, and I approach this work with care and respect for each person's unique journey. My approach is collaborative and strengths-based. I believe therapy is not a "one-size-fits all" experience, and I tailor the process to each client's needs, values and goals. Seeking greater serenity in your life takes courage. Therapy can be a space to slow down, gain insight, and reconnect with parts of yourself that may have been overlooked or silenced along the way. You deserve support as you move toward a life that feels more grounded, authentic, and aligned with who you truly are. I would be honored to walk alongside you in that process.

Taking the first step to seek out therapy is courageous and at times, we do not take a moment to recognize the brave steps that we take day by day. I want my clients to feel empowered and I work hard to help my clients harness their inner strengths and also ways to build their support systems. I believe that therapy is not a one size fits all approach because of this, I make sure to get to know my clients as individuals by taking a deeper look into family background, current relational influences and stressors.

Hello! My goal as a therapist is to provide a safe, compassionate space where you can process your experiences, deepen your understanding of yourself, and explore areas where healing is needed. I take a person-centered approach, meaning you lead the way in your journey while I follow—offering guidance, support, and tools as needed. I offer EMDR, IFS, CBT, and other modalities, tailoring our work to what feels most helpful and empowering for you. I also place a strong emphasis on connecting the mind and body, as many of us experience a disconnect between the two. For those who are interested, I incorporate elements of energy therapy—drawing on yogic principles, Usui Reiki, and other approaches—to support your healing process. I welcome clients from all backgrounds and experiences, and I offer specific support for those seeking culturally sensitive therapy, honoring your unique story and identity throughout our work together.

Hi, I’m Angela. I am a Board-Certified Licensed Clinical Social Worker dedicated to helping people navigate life’s challenges, discover their strengths, and see themselves in a new light. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply ready for change, I provide a supportive space where you can explore your thoughts and emotions at your own pace. I have worked with individuals of all ages—from children to adults—and have extensive experience supporting adults with cognitive challenges. My approach is always individualized and adaptable, using modified strategies when needed to ensure therapy is practical, meaningful, and effective for you. Life can feel overwhelming when emotions seem impossible to manage. In our sessions, you set the pace. We’ll start by identifying what matters most to you and create goals that feel realistic and empowering. I draw from evidence-based methods such as Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and emotion-regulation skills training. For those processing difficult experiences, we can incorporate EMDR to help reduce distress and promote healing. In our sessions together, I will meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques so you can identify and overcome any barriers that you feel are holding you back. I also use Narrative Therapy to help you re-author your story—one that highlights your resilience, strengths, and growth. In our first session, we’ll use Motivational Interviewing to talk through your hopes for therapy, explore any concerns, and begin setting the foundation for change. Whether you're navigating anxiety, frustration, or interpersonal challenges, I will guide you in finding practical tools and skills to help you thrive. Together, we’ll take steps toward greater emotional balance and fulfillment in your life. We can work together!

Welcome, I’m Megan! I applaud you for taking time to prioritize yourself. I am eager to learn about your journey thus far and work with you to achieve the life you hope to have. The desire for a better quality of life is wonderful to have and something you deserve. I strive to meet each client where they are at when they join sessions and approach conversations under a judgement-free lens. As a team, we can develop coping skills, enhance problem-solving abilities, and create a future more in line with your values. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I earned my graduate degree at Villanova University and my undergraduate degree at Saint Joseph’s University. I work with adults who experience relational struggles, life transitions, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, recovery maintenance, and mood disorders. I commonly integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing into my practice. In addition to looking at a person’s mental wellness, I also explore other aspects of wellness (e.g., social, physical, and environmental wellness) as this assists in treating the whole self. Beyond bringing my professional knowledge to sessions, I bring my personal experiences through self-disclosure when helpful. My overall therapeutic approach is genuine and empathetic, with a focus on building a strong therapeutic relationship. I thoughtfully weave together evidence-based practices with the hope that your treatment feels tailored to your needs. In my sessions, the therapist and client are both experts. I enjoy assisting people with discovering passions, highlighting strengths, heightening motivation, and achieving overall self acceptance. I want everyone to leave my sessions feeling they deserve to be seen, heard, loved, understood, accepted, and celebrated. Interested in being teammates working towards bettering your quality of life? Let’s connect!

Take a deep breath...You've just taken the first step on your path towards better mental health. It would be my honor to be the therapist who walks and supports you through this journey. I know that up to this point, you've done your best with what you knew and the tools you had, but they aren't helping anymore. Which is why you are here now looking at my profile. Do you want to feel more joy in parenting, in relationships, at work, or personally? Do you want less anxiety, depression, self-doubt, emotional instability? We can work together to identify new thought patterns, better communication strategies, problem-solve coping strategies, and what you want for your life moving forward. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Pennsylvania and Oklahoma and have been practicing for over 25 years and I am here for you.

Hi, I’m Kelly Tamburro, LPC. I’m a trauma-informed therapist who helps high achievers, caregivers, and young adults break out of anxiety, perfectionism, and burnout. I rely heavily on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you understand your patterns, challenge unhelpful thoughts, and build practical skills that actually make life feel lighter. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from themselves. On the outside, you might be the responsible one, the strong one, or the one people rely on, but inside you may feel exhausted, anxious, or unsure of how to slow down. You don’t have to keep holding everything by yourself. My style is warm, calm, and collaborative. I provide a nonjudgmental space to process trauma, gain insight, and learn tools that support long-term healing. While my Grow practice is fully virtual, I bring a nature-informed perspective to therapy, using grounding, mindfulness, and nature-based reflection to help you feel more centered and connected wherever you are. If you’re ready to understand yourself more deeply, find relief from stress and trauma symptoms, and rebuild your sense of balance and confidence, I’d love to support you.

Fulfilling our potential is a lifelong journey of becoming more at peace with ourselves, deepening the intimacy in our relationships, being more authentically human, and feeling more alive each day. Along the way, certain challenges arise to cause us distress or confusion. Such moments can make us feel held back, afraid, or unsure of where to go from here. But these moments can also be the points of growth and healing from which we renew ourselves in ways we did not think possible. It is a great privilege helping men and women in their search to improve their relationship with themselves and others, to lessen the burden of emotional pain, to experience freedom from addictions, or to embark on new life challenges - to find the hope and courage needed to take those important next steps.

Hi. I'm Bill. I've been working in this field since 2003 treating adults experiencing symptoms related to the anxiety disorders, depressed mood, identity and self-concept difficulties, relationship problems, life-transition difficulties, and traumatic memories. These difficulties along with other related topics that may surface during a therapy session. My therapy approach is quite straightforward, collaborative, and non-judgmental. It's structured to help you develop a healthier and happier life. We begin by identifying the circumstances that prompted you to seek therapy. Then I help you to develop skills and solutions tailored for you to help you move forward toward that healthier life. It's a collaborative approach. You and I work together through this process. From this perspective, listening is the most-important part of communication. When I genuinely listen to your experiences and concerns without judgment or distraction, I can respond appropriately to your concerns. "Right Speech begins with Right Listening." PLEASE BOOK APPOINTMENTS ON THE HOUR. THANKS.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by Pennsylvania rather than a city like Philadelphia?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in Pennsylvania. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Pennsylvania from Pittsburgh to Scranton! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Pennsylvania.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What happens during the first therapy session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
