Therapists in Pennsylvania

As a holistic therapist, I believe real change happens when you feel understood, supported, and given practical tools that fit your life. I’m down-to-earth, collaborative, and genuinely curious about what makes you *you*. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, confident, and connected to the life you want—one step at a time. I am not a "blank slate" therapist and will both feel with you and for you when you are in a tough situation. While I consider myself a safe and nonjudgmental person, I will challenge you once we have built a relationship to ensure you are focused on your growth.

I am the mother to 2 grown children and a grandmother. I was married for over 40 years prior to my husband passing, I now share my house with a Golden Retriever. I went back to school later in life, and like to encourage others to do the same if possible. My first experience in this field came when I got a job at a county mental health/developmental services program as a receptionist. I was motivated by all the great work that the caseworkers were doing to improve their clients lives. I went back to school to finish my Bachelors and finally received a Masters in Social work. I retired from the county program as a Casework Supervisor, I felt that my position was becoming more administrative, and I was missing the connections I had made with my clients. At that time I felt it was time to work on what my original goal was which was to become a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I did work for 5 years with children with behavioral issues in school and in their homes. My previous position was in a small practice in rural PA, where I learned the importance of being eclectic in my treatment approach because every clent and their situation is different , and they deserve to have a treatment plan specifically targeted to their situation

I’m a licensed clinical social worker who believes therapy should feel like a real conversation—not a test, not a lecture, and definitely not something you have to “perform” for. My goal is to create a space where you can breathe, slow down, and talk honestly about what’s going on without feeling judged or overwhelmed. I work with adults navigating trauma, anxiety, relationship stress, burnout, and big life transitions. I blend approaches like trauma-informed CBT, ACT, DBT skills, solution-focused work, and mind-body techniques to help you make sense of what you’re feeling and build tools that actually fit your life. I’m gentle when you need space, direct when you want clarity, and collaborative every step of the way.

Ever feel like life or motherhood reshaped you so deeply that you’re still figuring out who you are now… beyond the diapers, the schedules, and the expectations?

The pressure, the identity shifts, the silent grief, the anxiety, the constant expectation to be “strong,” and the parts of yourself that get pushed aside while you show up for everyone else. My approach is client-centered, warm, and real. In our work, you don’t have to explain your strength, your exhaustion, or the layers of being a Black woman navigating life and motherhood. You get a space where you can breathe, feel, unravel, rebuild, and reconnect with the woman underneath all the roles. I help women process postpartum changes, overwhelm, burnout, trauma, and the emotional weight that comes with always being the dependable one. Together, we slow down, make room for your needs, and create a path toward healing that feels honest and achievable.

Hello I am Christine Fallon a LCSW in Pennsylvania. I have been in practice for over 17 years. I have had extensive experience in anxiety disorders, mood disorders, depression, grief, trauma, and significant mental illness to include schizophrenia and bipolar disorders. I graduated from Marywood University and began my career. I enjoy helping others find a better way to thrive in this world where there is so much uncertainty we face.

I SEE YOU, WARRIOR. The fixer. The doer. The one who holds it all together while quietly unraveling inside. You’re the get-it-done, make-it-happen woman everyone counts on. But holding it all together all the time? It’s left you running on fumes — simmering with resentment and secretly whispering, “When is it my turn?” I’ve spent my entire career helping women — the fixers, the doers, the ones who hold it all together — finally drop the armor and still feel safe. After nearly three decades, I’ve distilled the most potent, no-BS methods into one fusion: psychology, neuroscience, and energetic law — that untapped power inside you that turns belief into reality. We don’t just manage symptoms — we rewire the system, top down and bottom up. This is where women who lead, hold, and heal everyone but themselves finally come home to their own power — learning to regulate their nervous systems, rewire their minds, and rise with calm, clarity, and conviction. What follows isn’t surface-level change. It’s cell-deep transformation — anchored in safety, emotional regulation, and practical tools that actually work.

I recognize that honest and direct feedback opens up the ability for growth and change, and will always offer that. Together we will investigate different approaches to get you to where you want to be and to meet your goals. We will create a space that is affirming, laid back, and collaborative to encourage safety so that you can show up fully, as yourself. I want you to feel like we are a team, because we are!

Hello, I’m Colleen. Does it feel as if you are giving more energy than you have or that there are too many things and not enough mental energy to juggle all those tasks? Are you finding that your relationships are strained or that keeping up with friends and loved ones seems like an unsurmountable task? Do you find it difficult to give yourself grace and empathy?

Anxiety, depression, and strained relationships can feel overwhelming and unsurmountable alone, but I’m here to help. In our sessions, I hope to provide a place where you feel safe, and somewhere we can work together to make a plan to make any stressors that you are dealing with manageable. I look forward to working with you.

Whether your grief feels fresh and raw or quietly lingers beneath the surface, our work together can help you move toward healing and meaning in your own time.
