Therapists in Pennsylvania

My name is Cleonese Dasent-Green and I am the sole proprietor of Poinciana Therapy LLC. I hold Licenses as a LCSW With advanced degrees in Clinical Social Work in NY, NJ & PA. I have Graduate Certificate in Thanatology, a Play Therapy Certificate and over 15 years of experience in therapy, social work, and medical social services. I also received my Masters degree from Fordham University in NYC.

Hello! I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with a Master’s degree from Touro University and five years of experience in practice. I specialize in supporting adults facing challenges like relational and career stress, life transitions, anxiety, depression, and trauma-related concerns. I find it an honor to work with each of my clients, and my approach is collaborative and tailored to your unique needs. Together, we’ll develop a personalized treatment plan to help you reach your goals, navigate life’s challenges, and build resilience for a more fulfilling life.

I’m a doctor of behavioral health and licensed professional counselor committed to helping clients make meaningful changes in their lives. My work focuses on targeting ineffective behaviors, increasing use of healthy coping skills, and empowering clients to engage in actions that are aligned with their values. I strongly believe in taking a collaborative approach to helping clients reach their goals.

Welcome — this is a space where you can be honest, seen, and understood. I’m Shakea “Kea” Roper, LCSW, and I bring 15 years of clinical and life experience to our therapeutic partnership. If you’ve ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or burdened by cycles that just won’t shift — I see you. I specialize in helping people manage anxiety, depression, racing or intrusive thoughts, life transitions, and relational struggle. My style is active, grounded, and rooted in both compassion and challenge. Many clients say: “Kea listens like no one else — and she’s not afraid to stretch me when I need it.” I integrate evidence-based approaches (CBT, DBT, Solution-Focused, Strengths-Based, Brief Therapy) along with more specialized models: Making Sense of Your Worth (MSoYW): an 8-week group curriculum developed by HALO Project where we explore and heal the internal “lies” we believe about ourselves, rebuild toward positive self-worth and secure attachment. Moral Reconation Therapy (MRT): a structured, cognitive-behavioral system where we work through step-by-step exercises to enhance reasoning, decision-making, and a healthier identity (beyond self-destructive or impulsive patterns). I also actively engage in community work, and I’m currently pursuing my doctorate (which continues to deepen my perspective and rigor). Outside of sessions, you’ll often find me at board game night, crafting, or spending time with family. It’s an honor to walk alongside you. Nelson Mandela said, “Everything seems impossible until it’s done.” Let’s work together toward the possible. I’m currently accepting clients in Pennsylvania, Missouri, Kansas, Utah, North Dakota, and Nevada.

With 15+ years of experience, Mitsouko Chatelain, LCSW, provides compassionate, trauma-informed therapy for children (5+), teens, adults, and older adults.

In a safe, empowering space, Mitsouko helps you connect with your inner strengths, build resilience, and move toward lasting well-being.

As a social worker dedicated to helping others maximize their abilities, I am eager to work with others who are looking to manage life enough to feel successful for themselves through SMALL CHANGES. Recognizing that life is busy, hectic, demanding, and complicated, I am here to help you streamline aspects of your life by managing your THOUGHTS, FEELINGS, and BEHAVIORS. I prefer BRIEF INTERVENTIONS (short-term episodes of care) and explore SOLUTION-FOCUSED STRATEGIES.

Welcome! I’m Bill Golden, a dedicated therapist committed to supporting you on your journey toward personal growth and empowerment. My approach focuses on helping you clarify your goals and develop practical strategies to achieve them. Together, we will explore your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, enabling you to gain greater control over your life. I believe that everyone has the potential to create meaningful change, and I’m here to guide you every step of the way. Let’s work together to unlock your full potential! I have a passion for empowering individuals to take charge of their lives. With expertise in Psychodynamic Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, I specialize in helping my clients identify their goals and develop actionable strategies to achieve them. By fostering a supportive and collaborative environment, I will help guide my clients by enhancing their self-awareness, building resilience, and improving decision-making skills. Committed to facilitating personal growth and emotional well-being, I believe that everyone has the potential to create the life they desire. Over the past 17 years as a therapist, I’ve dedicated my practice to helping clients find and fulfill their personal and professional goals. Here’s a detailed description of the methods and principles I’ve employed to facilitate this journey. Establishing a strong therapeutic and trusting relationship is foundational in therapy. I prioritize creating a safe, non-judgmental environment where clients feel comfortable expressing their thoughts and feelings. By actively listening and showing empathy, I help clients feel understood and valued encouraging openness and honesty and by collaborative goal setting I work closely with clients to help identify their goals. I also guide clients through self-assessments to help them articulate their desires and aspirations. I have successfully guided countless clients in finding and fulfilling their goals, helping them navigate their unique journeys with confidence.

Hi! My name is Jessica and I am a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania with a Masters Degree in Social Work and a Clinical Social Work License in Pennsylvania. I have worked in trauma, medical social work, adoption, crisis intervention, and as a therapist specializing in depression, anxiety, and ADHD for nearly 30 years. I enjoy working with individuals and families. I try to empower my clients with a strength-based approach to whatever concerns they bring to therapy.

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.

I'm Ben Northrup, a licensed professional counselor with a passion for helping individuals navigate life’s challenges with strength and self-compassion. I specialize in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), psychosis treatment, helping family members of individuals with symptoms of psychosis, and support for anxiety and depression. I earned both my undergraduate and graduate degrees from Lock Haven University and have worked in a range of clinical settings—including group homes, partial hospitalization programs, women’s centers, and community-based mental health. These experiences have shaped my client-centered, practical, and empathetic approach to therapy. Therapy sessions with me tend to feel more casual in nature and use everyday language (no psychological jargon). While therapy is a serious matter and we will talk about serious subjects, it should never be a time that either of us dread. I believe in taking time to learn about, or help you discover, hobbies and parts of life that you enjoy. I take time to help you develop more personalized coping skills and problem solve using your strengths. So, whether you're feeling overwhelmed, seeking tools to manage emotions, or navigating complex mental health challenges, I'm here to support you in creating meaningful, lasting change.

Hi, I’m Erica, a therapist in the Philadelphia area who believes healing is rarely neat, linear, or Instagram-perfect. My approach blends evidence-based tools with an honest appreciation for how complicated, funny, painful, and beautiful being human can be. My approach combines evidence based tools with curiosity, compassion, humor, and a genuine interest in understanding what makes you, well, you. I work with people who want to understand themselves better, break patterns that are no longer serving them, work through difficult experiences, or simply feel a little more comfortable in their own lives. I want therapy to feel like a place where you can be honest. You don’t have to have the right words, know exactly what you need, or come in with everything figured out. You can show up messy, overwhelmed, frustrated, guarded, or completely unsure of where to start. We can figure it out together. As someone who lives with a disability, I also know that resilience is a word that gets thrown around pretty casually. I understand what it means to build a life around limitations you didn’t choose while still wanting a life that feels full, meaningful, and genuinely yours. I bring that lived experience into my work, not because I think it means I understand everyone’s experience, but because I know what it feels like to keep going when things are heavy. At the end of the day, I’m a therapist, but I’m also a real person. I won’t pretend to have all the answers or expect you to have yours. My job is to meet you where you are, help you understand what’s happening underneath the surface, and give you some tools to make things feel a little more manageable.

Hi, I'm Melanie! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 27 years of experience as a clinician in a variety of settings. Whether you need to work through some heavy stuff from the past that's been weighing you down or you just want to process some day-to-day work or relationship stress, therapy can be a major step in the right direction toward self-care! Prior to starting my private practice I was working for the Veterans Health Administration and I remain passionate about continuing to be an advocate for Veterans to educate them about and link them to resources and services that are available to them.

I am a licensed professional counselor and board certified dance/movement therapist. I strive to create an open and safe space for clients to be their authentic self and find it important to see a client's physical, emotional, and developmental world through their lens. We will work together to explore and express emotions, develop and expand communication skills and relationships, and find ways to continue overall growth within the therapeutic relationship. I focus on solution-focused and cognitive-behavioral therapy approaches, but employ additional options as needed, depending on each client's personal journey towards healing.

My name is Marlo. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I am also a Certified School Psychologist. I have worked in the mental health field for over 22 years, and I have been providing individual therapy for 4. In a world where kindness is not always common, a nonjudgemental listening ear and a safe space to unpack whats been weighing you down can be invaluable. Allow me to walk with you on your journey towards healing, growth and wellness.

Hi, I'm Stephanie – your partner on a path to a brighter you. If anxiety, depression, or life's twists have you in their grip, remember, you're not alone. I blend Person-Centered Therapy's wisdom with CBT and DBT tools, tailoring them to build your unique path to growth. My passion is walking alongside others and creating a sanctuary where they can lay their inner world bare. This is the environment in which true healing and growth can take place.

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.

My approach to therapy is client-centered and solution-focused, providing a balance of empathy and insight. As an individual and a couples therapist, I strive to create an environment where both men and women feel comfortable and engaged in the process. Whether you're looking to improve your mental health or your relationships, I'm here to support you every step of the way.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania, working and living under the Arizona sun. I feel deeply connected to the community I grew up in and remain committed to serving clients in Pennsylvania. I began my undergraduate studies at William Paterson University of New Jersey, where I played Division III soccer. Balancing academics, athletics, and life responsibilities gave me firsthand insight into the challenges young adults face, furthering my interest in mental health. After graduation, my work in drug and alcohol counseling revealed the impact of trauma and inspired me to pursue a master’s degree in Community and Trauma Counseling at Jefferson University–East Falls. Shortly after graduating from Jefferson, I became a licensed professional counselor which is one of my most proudest achievements.

Welcome. I know reaching out for support can feel vulnerable, and I believe therapy should be a space where you feel safe, seen, and understood. My goal is to provide a compassionate and nonjudgmental environment where you can openly explore your thoughts, emotions, relationships, and life experiences at your own pace. I work with individuals who may be struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, relationship challenges, life transitions, self-esteem, or feeling emotionally overwhelmed. Many of my clients are people who have spent years caring for others while neglecting their own needs and are now ready to begin prioritizing their healing and personal growth. My approach is integrative and personalized because I believe every person’s story and healing journey is unique. I incorporate supportive therapy, trauma-focused care, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness practices, and narrative therapy to help clients better understand themselves, develop healthier coping strategies, and move toward meaningful and lasting change. Together, we will work to identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, process painful experiences with care and intention, build emotional resilience, and reconnect with your strengths and sense of self. I believe healing happens not only through insight, but also through feeling empowered, supported, and genuinely accepted. Whether you are navigating a difficult season of life or seeking deeper self-understanding and growth, I welcome the opportunity to walk alongside you in your journey toward healing and balance.

Hi, I’m Kris. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with training in EMDR and a deep commitment to creating a safe, compassionate space where you feel truly heard and supported. Outside of my work, I love traveling with my family, getting lost in a good book on my front porch, and finding ways to be creative. I bring that same sense of curiosity, connection, and care into my work—because I believe healing happens best when we feel safe, supported, and truly ourselves.

Hello, and welcome — I’m so glad you’ve landed on my profile. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Behavior Specialist in Pennsylvania. I earned my Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling from Indiana University of Pennsylvania and have been working in the mental health field since 2014. Most of my career has been in Intensive Behavioral Health Services (formerly BHRS), where I served as a therapeutic staff support (TSS), mobile therapist, and behavioral specialist. I worked primarily with children ages 2–16, much of that time in elementary school settings. My work focused on supporting children on the autism spectrum, as well as those with ADHD and mood disorders, while collaborating closely with families and teachers. I also have experience as an in‑house school therapist, again working with elementary‑aged students. Although my background is rooted in child and family work, I have also supported adults through IBHS and outpatient settings. Throughout my career, I’ve spent meaningful time counseling families and partnering with educators, giving me a well‑rounded understanding of the challenges they face.

I offer sliding scale services with limited appointments available on weekends. I have practiced in various settings over the years including community mental health clinics, outpatient and inpatient. My job is to be a guide during your therapeutic journey, help you clarify your goals and suggest various techniques to try. The journey can take time and is different for everyone.

My name is Michael Ermalinski, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 35 years of clinical experience. I hold an M.S. from St. Joseph’s University and a B.A. from New York University, supported by extensive post-graduate work in clinical psychology. I have dedicated my career to being a steady, reliable anchor for my clients, combining deep clinical wisdom with a modern, evidence-based approach to help you achieve lasting mental wellness.

Hi, I'm a therapist with over thirty years of experience working with individuals, couples, and families and historically getting positive results. I tend to work with families with special members such as teens and seniors. I have always worked with teens as it seemed to be a population others found difficult, but I liked the challenge. Now that I am a senior, I better understand the needs of our demographic. I tend to utilize a Family Systems approach which sees the individual in a family context as the majority has grown up in some form of family, whether related by blood or not. I've also taught Marriage and Family Therapy through what is now Drexel University's Family Therapy Program and have offered professional Supervision as a Clinical Member and Approved Supervisor of the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy. By working with the client in a collaborative, goal setting manner, faster more positive results seem to be achieved.
