Therapists in Pennsylvania

I've got in-depth professional and personal experience with trauma and neurodivergence, and I'm well aware of the overlap with these experiences. I'm also an Eating Disorder Informed Professional. Through my own therapy, educational and professional training, I've reached a point at which I'm able to help others to grow and improve their lives. I work with clients to identify core thoughts, beliefs, and behaviors that are holding them back, and we clarify specific skills they can work on to take more control over their lives.

Hello there, I am Jamey. Do you feel like there are just not enough hours in the day, or that you are being pulled in a million different directions? Do you feel like you are struggling to keep up with your relationships, your work, or your health? Sometimes when this happens, we tend to blame the person in the mirror. Fortunately, I am here to help you get over that hump. I strive to help you manage anxiety and avoid burnout. My goal is to help work together with you, and identify what is working well, and not so well, and help you find that balance you and so many others are looking for. I consider myself to be very adaptable to my clients, and work to find what works best specifically for you! I would also like to assure you, that you are not the only one feeling this way! Whether you are overwhelmed, having relationship issues, dealing with trauma, or cycles of anxiety and depression, I am here to help. If you are having trouble with your children, and are seeking input and new techniques, I would be glad to assist you. Seeking therapy can feel scary, but this is the first step towards making the right choice. You deserve a safe space to heal and grow. In our sessions together, I will meet you with empathy and compassion in a judgment-free zone, working with evidence-based techniques to help you overcome the hang-ups and habits holding you back. Let us work together!

Hello, and welcome! My name is Amber Stewart, and I’m a licensed professional counselor (LPC) out of Western Pennsylvania; I'm also licensed in Wisconsin. I specialize in anxiety, self-esteem, depression, and trauma. I want to help you go from just tolerating the symptoms of your anxiety, depression, or trauma to living fully in the present and having a healthy relationship with yourself. You deserve to live the life you envision for yourself, and I want to help you do that by exploring the areas you’re struggling with, teaching you ways to cope, and reducing the impact that these symptoms have on your life by addressing them at their core. I believe that underlying most (if not all) mental health concerns is some kind of trauma – and, there are many studies that support my belief that trauma is connected to depression, anxiety, and other mental health concerns. I invite you to learn more about my approaches to therapy, trauma, and trauma therapy by visiting my website: (www.everystepforward.com). And, please feel free to reach out to me with any questions.

I am a psychologist with over thirty years of experience working with adults and children. My goal is to listen and be present with you as you share what you feel is getting in your way of being happy and successful in life. I will challenge you gently where it seems this is needed and help you develop new ways of understanding and handling existing challenges. I can help you if you are having relationship issues you are trying to figure out or resolve, whether they be past or present. I can help you if you can't stop a maladaptive habit or behavior that bothers you. I will listen and validate if you need to process a prior trauma to help you move beyond it or address current stressors in your life.

I specialize in supporting individuals as they navigate the complexities of emotional regulation, trauma processing, and the management of anxiety and depressive symptoms. My clinical experience spans working with both adolescents and adults facing a variety of challenges, including social difficulties, deep-seated trauma, and significant life transitions. I blend a gentle, compassionate interpersonal style with factual psycho-education, an approach designed to help you effectively regulate your emotions and process the experiences that have shaped you.

Whether you're facing challenges related to anxiety, relationships, or personal growth, I am here to guide you on your journey to wellness. Together, we can uncover insights, develop coping strategies, and empower you to achieve the change you seek. I understand that dealing any type of lifestyle adjustments can lead to anxiety and depression. Symptoms can can be really persistent and tough, and I’m here to help you through it.

Hi, I’m Mike Bruckner, an LCSW providing compassionate telehealth services to individuals all across Pennsylvania. I believe that no matter where you are in your life’s journey—whether you are 10 or 100 years old—your story matters, and you do not have to carry its heaviest pieces alone. From the comfort of your own safe space, we can work together to navigate the exhausting weight of anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and PTSD. To make care as accessible as possible, I accept many major insurance plans and offer flexible scheduling to fit into your daily life. Together, we will honor your unique experiences, gently heal from past trauma, and discover the path toward peace and emotional wellness that you truly deserve.

Counseling is a space where you can explore, process, heal and grow. By being vulnerable we can allow ourselves the space to reflect on who we are now and where we have come from. I believe that we deserve a space where we can feel safe, comfortable and free from judgement. In this space, we can take out some of the boxes that are stored away and discover how we can let go of what no longer serves us while creating new ways of being and relating to ourselves, others, and the world around us .

I help adults work through depression, anxiety, trauma, attention and executive functioning challenges, and times of change and uncertainty—especially when they’re feeling stuck, disconnected, or relying on coping patterns that no longer serve them. I specialize in working with young adults, college students, recent graduates, and men exploring questions of identity, relationships, purpose, and direction. Clients often describe me as warm, thoughtful, and genuinely curious, appreciating both the ease of our conversations and the depth of our work. My approach is relational and insight-oriented: together, we’ll explore not only what’s causing pain today, but also the patterns and relationships that shape how you experience yourself and others.

In this world where even feelings seem to have their own set of feelings, and emotional rollercoasters are our daily ride, I'm here to be your compass through the ups, downs and sideways of life. And, yes, a touch of humor is my secret weapon. What sets me apart? I've mastered the art of infusing every day jingles and anecdotes into therapy sessions, because, let's face it, sometimes a deep breath, a giggle and a chocolate chip cookie can work wonders on almost any mood. I am eagerly looking forward to connecting with clients who appreciate an authentic and down to earth counseling style. Let's navigate the complexities of life and feelings together.

My name is Evan Miller and I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and psychotherapist in the state of Pennsylvania. The goal of therapy is to facilitate personal growth and help you improve your life.

I consider the therapeutic relationship to be fundamental to all forms of good therapy, so I continually strive to create an environment that is supportive, safe, authentic, comfortable and non-judgmental.

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.
