Sudden life changes such as the loss of a loved one, the death of a pet, or diagnosis with a chronic or debilitating disease, are hard to handle. Being a caregiver for a loved one who has a chronic or terminal illness can be a rewarding and fulfilling experience; but it also comes with stresses that can be hard for friends and family to understand. Being a person who needs help to manage day to day activities of living can also be difficult, even if the help is appreciated. Illness, loss of mobility, reduced independence, physical and emotional pain can change your relationship with others and with yourself. Even positive life transitions such as retirement, promotions, or reprioritizing your work/life balance to focus on what matters, can be stressful. Whatever changes you are going through can impact your ability to find meaning, a sense of purpose, or hope in your life. Whether you have always struggled with feelings of depression and anxiety, or they have come as a result of these changes in your life, I believe therapy can help. I have been a Licensed Professional Counselor since 2004, and am currently offering individual therapy via telehealth for clients in Pennsylvania. Before becoming a psychotherapist in Pennsylvania, I worked in developing and delivering community and mental health services in Arizona. Throughout my career I have worked closely with older adults, caregivers, members of the disability community, residents in long term care, and residents in transitional and emergency housing for older victims of elder abuse and intimate partner violence. I have lived experience with chronic illness, disability, and remote caregiving. I am a member of the LGBTQ+ community and a survivor of suicide. I bring all of this professional and personal experience to my practice.

Welcome! My name is Dru Bleem. I am a licensed professional counselor in the state of Pennsylvania. I have 10+ years of experience in the counseling field. I am currently certified as a Certified Mental Health & Nutrition Clinical Specialist and a Certified Professional Trauma Specialist. I work with ages 5 and up in person and via telehealth. Ideally, I prefer to see the children in person as I feel that I can utilize play therapy more effectively in the office. The modality I use is primarily Cognitive Behavioral Therapy which focuses on thoughts, feelings, and our behaviors. I am non traditional in the sense that I recognize not one approach to therapy works for everyone and I don't always need to be sitting in my chair to provide effective counseling. I believe movement is healing and at times you will see me move about the office and encourage movement in your life.

Sifting through the complexities of life is never easy, and it can be a relief to have someone walk alongside you. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and have been working with clients for the past six years. I am also a husband and a father who has enjoyed seeing the unique process that happens when you meet regularly with a trained professional and do the intentional work of growth. As a lifelong learner, I look forward to engaging in that process together. When immediate support is needed, I draw from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to offer practical skills and insights that bring quick relief. For those seeking deeper and lasting healing, I integrate depth psychology to explore how past experiences shape the present, creating space for clarity and intention moving forward. I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to counseling, because people aren’t statistics, they’re individuals. I’ve been fortunate to have people in my life who treated me that way, and it’s made all the difference. I’d be honored to do the same for you.

Therapy is a journey, whether you are familiar to the process or just beginning, I am so glad you are here. I'm a licensed counselor with a diverse background, I enjoyed working with those who were incarcerated make better choices for their future on the outside, working with those in active addiction trying to do something to make recovery possible, and working in a busy outpatient mental health clinic. With each experience, I learned how to work with various populations and enhance my skills. The most rewarding part of my job is seeing the "light blub" moment occur with a client or helping a client heal when they are struggling.

I am Jeff, like it says on this page. I love games of all kinds and dogs of all kinds. I sit crosslegged on chairs when I can and enjoy kneading dough for baking. I'm verbose and use words as if they were legos. I have worked in hospitals, community mental health centers, a retirement home and now I am content to be in private practice. I have experience with crises, sudden life transitions and choices that seem impossible to come back from. I'm familiar with being awkward and have experience being the outcast. I became a therapist because there were many times earlier in my life where I needed support and guidance from someone who could understand me without being judgmental or controlling. Being a strange enough person already, I never quite found someone empathetic towards my situation until meeting my first therapist - a literally life changing experience. Even with almost 10 years as a therapist, I'm certainly not claiming that I'll change your life as a guarantee just because of who I am - a therapist helped me see that so much change came about by my own efforts over the years, change that you can also be empowered to pursue. I am the sort of person that will work in your interest, work for your health when it feels like illness gets in the way. If you happen to be someone or know someone that often puts others before themselves at the expense of wants and needs for themselves, then you may know me pretty well already. Transparently, I am not using AI in any form to write anything you read here about myself or my methods.

Hello! I appreciate that you’re taking this step toward finding a therapist you feel will be a good fit for you. I am a licensed clinical social worker with 13 years of experience. For most of this time I have worked with people around issues of depression, anxiety, PTSD, grief, and relationship/family issues. I am also passionate about working with LGBTQ folks around issues of coming out and self-acceptance. I know that the decision to look for a therapist isn’t always an easy one but, by doing so, you are taking an important first step toward creating change for yourself! I take a down-to-earth, supportive, conversational approach to therapy. I engage in discussion and don’t hesitate to share my own life experience when appropriate. I find that a more personal approach helps strengthen the relationship between me and the people I meet with which, in turn, will help you feel more comfortable being open in sessions. I take this approach because therapy is most successful when a person feels like their therapist understands them and when there is some level of connection. I focus on ensuring you will feel both seen and heard starting with our first session. You will be approached by me with curiosity, interest, and care at all times. At the start of your sessions with me I will ask how you’d like to start that day’s conversation and, if you’re not sure, will support you in discovering what might be important for you to talk about in the moment. I invite you to schedule a first session to see if I am a good fit for what you’re looking for in therapy!

My name is Dzana Saynes, DM, MS, LPC, CADC, EMDRIA certified clinician with a Lithuanian upbringing and accent. My belief is that a unique approach to life changes, and difficulties can be accomplished through cooperative engagements by starting conversations. What to expect during the first therapy session? Intake sessions consist of information unique to your situation, family, and what you expect from therapy. We will discuss what are your expectations from treatment, set goals, and measure the progress of the session making sure you get the most from therapy. I feel it's important to allow yourself to recognize your strengths, and accomplishments by talking about all of that. I do accept self-pay, same weekly appointments available! Thank you! See you in session! Sincerely Dzana

Hi! If you are feeling overwhelmed by life's stressors or stuck and aren't sure which way to go next, I am here to help! Life can throw us some real curveballs. Sometimes things feel manageable, and other times it’s like everything hits at once. The ways we’ve coped in the past might not work the same anymore—and that’s okay. That’s where therapy can help. My name is Holly Riggs and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience so I understand that the thought of starting therapy can be a little intimidating and scary. I’m here to give you a safe space to talk things through, no judgment. Together, we’ll figure out what’s going on, what’s feeling stuck, and how to find new ways to cope and move forward. Whether you're dealing with something unexpected or just feeling off, we’ll work at your pace to make things feel a little more manageable—and hopefully a little lighter too.
