I am an empathetic, compassionate and human clinician. This quality makes it easy for me to provide a safe space for my clients to share themselves vulnerably and authentically without feeling judged. I received my Master's degree from Kutztown University of Pennsylvania. I have been in the helping profession for over 9 years. This has allowed me to gain an extensive amount of experience working with different populations in different settings. I specialize in serving adolescent through adulthood doing individual and family therapy. I look forward to helping you with your mental health and healing journey.

There are few situations in life which are comparable to being in therapy; A helping relationship based on mutual respect, honesty, humility, educated/objective guidance, and genuine connection, in order for you to better navigate this thing we call "life". Being able to say anything, without fear of judgment, reproach, or rejection can allow you to truly face the obstacles that separate you from happiness and freedom; to be the best and most fulfilled version of yourself. I have spent the better part of 15 years educating myself and honing my counseling skills to people in this endeavor, and I must say I love being a therapist and have great confidence in my therapeutic skills and their benefit to you. I am experienced in addictions, trauma (EMDR- Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), anxiety, bipolar disorder, depression, improving social skills, existential life issues and transitions. I have found that it is often a combination of forces within and without of ourselves that create our unique situations that we need help with. While I have many methods to facilitate processing (talking, art therapy, mindfulness, EMDR), I believe that you are the expert of your unique story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming the challenges of your life. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I commend you for your effort and I am here to support, empower and be a fellow traveler on your journey. "The most powerful thing in the world, is an idea whose time has come"- Victor Hugo

Hello! I have always enjoyed helping others for as long as I can remember as early as age 9. I love to see their responses in the learning process. I have experienced trauma, witnessed violence, anxiety, have been in an unhealthy alcoholic relationship and have been a sensitive being my entire life not understanding why. My saving Grace has always been movement. I loved the way it made me feel-free and calm, and movement has always been part of my life even during 4 pregnancies and keeping up with my 4 children, and now my grandchildren. Over time, I was introduced to mindfulness, stress reduction and relaxation (which I didn’t realized how much I needed) and Yoga. This allowed me to calm my mind and focus. My career goal was Physical Education teaching and when I graduated (after have 4 children), teacher jobs were scarce. I was introduced to Behavioral Health and here I am now, 25 years later.

Hi. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor based in Pennsylvania. I have a PhD in Educational Psychology and a Masters degree in Music Therapy. I also got a certification in Gestalt therapy by going to a 3 year training program. Over my career I have worked with many different populations and in many different settings. My basic approach to therapy is to use the tools and techniques that I've developed to help people become unstuck and to grow and to reach toward their full potential.

I have an LPC and an LMFT and have been seeing clients since 1996. I have extensive training in helping people who are going through or have experienced narcissistic abuse and any form of childhood trauma, this includes verbal and emotional abuse, family addictions, or any early childhood experience that would cause one to feel unsafe. I am also experienced in the treatment of anxiety, worry and mood concerns and work with addictions, obsessive compulsive behaviors and any poor coping skills or core beliefs that were developed in order to manage these stressors. I use practices primarily focused on somatic and cognitive therapy but also utilize acceptance commitment therapy, internal family systems, mindfulness and am solution focused. I use homework and assignments aimed at regulating the nervous system in order to repair the fight/flight/freeze response that is often stuck on due to a continuous history of a variety of life stressors (trauma). This trapped and stored trauma continues to trigger the nervous system to respond in ways where we continue to feel unsafe, even after the threats have passed. By working with the nervous system to release this trapped trauma and find safety, we can then have the opportunity to respond to the world differently.

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.

Navigating relationships can be hard, can't it? Trying to figure out if you'd like to be in a relationship or questioning if you will ever marry or re-marry are thoughts that can be pervasive. Feeling satisfied and fulfilled in your season of singleness comes with its multitude of challenges. Making the decision to separate or divorce can be stressful. Life after separation, divorce or any relationship transition can initially appear to be overwhelming: family & friend transitions, co-parenting, career moves, and demographic changes just to name a few. You don't have to do it alone. You deserve therapeutic partnership to assist in making your best informed decisions in your life. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania. I've been in various consulting and counseling roles since 2005. I specialize in Empowering Individuals Through Life and Relationship Transitions. My ideal clients are those who are currently trying to make a decision about a relationship or have decided to end their relationship or marriage. I also assist clients who have had infertility challenges and pregnancy loss. Consider a lunch-time appointment between the times of 11am-1pm. Have your lunch alongside therapy.

Hi there, I'm Colleen! Are you struggling to juggle all the tasks life has thrown at you? Do you feel so overwhelmed that you can't be present in your relationships? Is it difficult to give yourself credit even when it's deserved? It can be hard to navigate these struggles alone without support. My passion is helping clients reach self-awareness, identify unhealthy patterns in relationships and effectively build the skills to overcome stressors throughout their lifespan. The most important goal for me as a clinician is that my clients feel safe, seen and understood during our time together. I have 10+ years of experience in the human services/mental health field and have worked across various settings including the juvenile justice system, school setting, in-home treatment with children and families, and intensive outpatient and private practice settings. I approach treatment from an ecosystemic lens and my focus is engagement, empowerment and progress. I consider myself an eclectic therapist who caters treatment to best meet my client's needs. I subscribe to person-centered, solution-focused and cognitive-behavioral approaches with an emphasis on psychoeducation. My specialty is working with the teenage and adult population regarding issues such as depression, anxiety, isolation, life transitions, interpersonal relationships and boundaries, poor self-concept, and grief and loss. I also enjoy working with the entire family system to help understand core dynamics and help facilitate positive change. I truly look forward to the privilege of working alongside you to meet your personal goals and lead a more joyful, fulfilling life!

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 the state. 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 EAP:UnitedHealthcare/Optum?

Yes! If you use EAP:UnitedHealthcare/Optum you’ll be asked to verify your Member ID at the time you book the appointment. However, if you don’t have EAP:UnitedHealthcare/Optum 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.

What are the "Clients say I'm" badges?

Grow Therapy asks patients about their experience with therapists after they have had a certain number of sessions. After enough responses, we add those characteristics to their profiles to help you find the best online therapists for you. We're still working on collecting this information from all our therapists.

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 to expect during your first 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.
