Elders Therapists in Pennsylvania

All behavior is purposeful. This means that we never do anything for no reason. Even when our behavior appears confusing or counterproductive to our values, our behavior has meaning and purpose. Therapy is a setting where we can gain insight about the origins of our perceptions, thinking and behavior. With clearer understanding, we are better equipped to identify factors within our control and consider alternative responses to our conditions. We gain awareness of the needs that are being met by potentially self-defeating thinking or behaviors and have a special opportunity to practice new thinking in the safety of therapy.

Hi! I'm a Licensed Professional Counsellor (LPC) based in Pennsylvania. I received my Masters from Clarion University and I have been practicing for five years.

Hi, I'm Lauren Sileski, a Licensed Professional Counselor. I work with teens and adults who are struggling with anxiety, depression, and life stressors. I have a lot of experience working with students and parents and view clients through a holistic lens. I value health and wellness and having worked as a personal trainer, I see how our daily habits and mindset influence our mental health. My goal as a therapist is for you to recognize your strengths and find the confidence to move towards your goals with an improved mindset.

Do you have a habit of taking care of everyone but yourself (your adorable animal companions included)? Are you having trouble creating space in your life to feel calm and find fulfillment? I help individuals looking to improve their relationships, mood, and overall life satisfaction. My approach to therapy focuses on building health, resilience, and connection – helping you move toward a life that feels vibrant and authentic. Together, we will focus on your strengths and potential for growth. I believe that healing is about more than fixing what is wrong. It’s about nurturing what’s already right! Whether you’re navigating anxiety, grief, life transitions, or simply feeling stuck, I’m here to walk alongside you. In this process, I will provide a warm and accepting space with plenty of opportunities for you to develop the tools you need to thrive. Being in animal rescue for the past 8+ years and a photographer for the past 12+ years has given me a unique perspective on therapy. You can expect to be encouraged to use your creative skills and compassion in your journey to wellbeing. Congratulations on taking this step to be your best self, and know that I would be honored to help you move toward healing and growth.

My clients describe me as warm, compassionate and supportive. Our first steps will be creating a space where you feel safe. The therapy process is then guided by your needs and preferences. Together we will explore the issues that have brought you to therapy. Difficulties in life are normal. You are not alone. And you will have me by your side as we figure out what feels right for you, and what are the best ways for you to achieve your goals.

I'm a Board Certified Art Therapist and Licensed Professional Counselor. My hope is to uplift and empower my clients - who are individuals who feel called to do the deep and meaningful work it takes to realize their unique inner power and innate ability to heal. I take a somatic and embodied approach to therapy; meaning I truly lean into curiosity surrounding what messages the body is sending and holding. If you’re feeling disconnected from yourself, feel like your emotions are controlling you, going through a time of transition, coping with depression, anxiety, trauma- or just want to feel more in control of your life/more in alignment with your true self: welcome to your journey back to yourself. I can support you in (re)connecting with your most authentic self, and feeling more in tune with yourself and your body. Let's get unstuck and move through anxiety together.

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 around me. 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. 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.

I’ve been license in the state of Pennsylvania to practice counseling. I receive my masters degree from the Indiana University of Pennsylvania. Over the years, I have been involved in helping men develop skills to remain non-abusive worked in substance-abuse treatment and currently enjoy collaborative care with primary care, physicians as well as private practice.

I have worked in the treatment since i was 36 and have 35 years of experience. My early experience was in the drug and alcohol and relapse prevention field. During that time i attended the Gestalt Institute in Cleveland, Ohio where I took 4 years of intense training. This lead me to find that therapy is not a method for me to figure out the client but a means for the client to gain greater self-awareness in facing their own life aspirations and struggles. I place focus on clients’ somatic awareness, especially breath, so being more in their body so they can try on new physical and intellectual styles in facing their world. I have a lot of knowledge about what is called the 12 step process and have melded together spirituality and religion in my own life. Prior to being a counselor/ therapist i taught school, painted steel bridges and other structures, and was a machinist at a large steel company, that like the many in our area have since closed their shops.

I enjoy shepherding clients through healing and growth, developing self-awareness, cultivating personal power, and understanding thoughts and behaviors. I help relationships thrive -- with yourself, with your higher power, and with others. I provide helpful insights and motivate and empower people to grow, change, adapt, and embrace life - and its messiness. My counseling career was a midlife career change - my first career was engineering. I've loved both but never looked back.

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.
