Have you been wondering if your current challenges are due to past traumatic life events? Do you struggle in relationships? If so, I may be the Therapist for you. I specialize in trauma therapy for teenagers and adults.
Many people often think trauma is only caused by violent crimes, acts of physical abuse, or natural disasters. They may also think because trauma happened a long time ago, it does not affect them in the present. These are a few of the myths about trauma. There are many types of traumas such as the sudden or unexpected death of a loved one, bullying, retaliation in the workplace, neglect from parents, infidelity, intimate partner violence, the witnessing of domestic violence and more.
If you or your teen is struggling with anxiety, depression, or life stressors, therapy with me can help with positive changes to strengthen self-esteem and confidence.
I am trained in EMDR and other trauma therapy approaches. My years of professional experience as a teacher and counselor, along with my lived experiences as a Black person allow me to provide empathetic regard while helping clients from multicultural backgrounds.

If you are ready to make positive changes in your life I am here to help with that journey! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Pennsylvania. I received my Masters from Holy Family University in 2016 and I have done my internship working with children and young adults on the Autism spectrum. Since then I have worked with children, teens, and adults in many settings such as individual, couples, family, and group therapy with various goals. Now I focus on individual therapy with the adult population on many different concerns whether that be life style changes, self-esteem, work/life balance, relationships, trauma, stress management, anxiety, depression, etc. My approach to therapy is person centered (you led the way in terms of what you would like to address in therapy). I like to teach relaxation techniques such as deep breathing and mindfulness as well cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) as a way to help you identify triggers, emotions, thoughts, and behavior so you can learn how to reframe thoughts, manage emotions, and modify behaviors.

I was previously a clinical supervisor, and I decided it was time to do what I do best, and that is help others through trauma informed care and working on self-worth and rebuilding relationships and attachments.

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.

My methods of counseling will provide you with the tools needed for you to work through your questions and struggles. Through guidance you can learn how to create relationship skills and build upon the skills you already possess. Some of the benefits of therapy include: gaining a better understanding of yourself, learning how to handle difficult emotions, identifying underlying causes of symptoms, providing coping strategies, managing symptoms and facilitating lifestyle changes.
I am an eclectic therapist who uses methods from various disciplines to provide unique treatment for each client.

I strive to provide a practical, safe, and warm space for you to work through your problems. I enjoy helping clients feel empowered to find solutions or heal from past traumas that plague them. I look forward to working with you soon.
I approach therapy as a relational process, not a place where you come to be fixed. You’re not a problem to solve; you’re a person with a history, patterns that make sense, and a way of being in the world that developed for a reason. In our work together, we slow things down and get curious about what’s underneath the surface. I’m interested in who you are, not just what’s wrong. My goal is to create a space that feels real, thoughtful, and nonjudgmental, where you can begin to understand yourself more deeply and move toward something that feels more connected and meaningful.

For my clients, I try to be that right support.
My approach is person-centered, embracing you for who you are and supportively walking along with you in your treatment journey!
Born and raised in the inner city by a single mother and a large extended family, I noticed the needs of those that were mentally or physically diagnosed were often not met. Therefore, I began to inquire about what I needed to do in order to be a part of the solution. I began to work in the field and I have worked in Behavioral/Mental Health for close to 20 years. My experience covers a plethora of ages and diagnosis across many settings. My determination to treat and support those with mental health diagnosis during the pandemic inspired me to perform outpatient therapy via telehealth to adults and adolescents. I specialize in adults 25-55 with various diagnoses but primarily Anxiety, PTSD, trauma and Depression to name a few. I love to utilize CBT, CPT, trauma informed care (TIC) and Motivational Interviewing as treatment modalities.
As a therapist with over 15 years of experience, I specialize in perinatal mood disorders, fertility challenges, intimacy and sex issues, and sexual kink. As a mother who has personally struggled with fertility and loss, I understand how difficult these issues can be.

Hi, I'm Gioia (Sounds like "Joya"), and welcome. It may have taken courage to find yourself here, so well done, you.
I am a Board Certified Art Therapist (ATR-BC) and Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who is flexible, affirming and joyful. I seek to find the potential in all things - even the hard, dark stuff. My own lived experience with neurodivergence and chronic illness greatly inform my practice. I use a compassionate, person-centered approach that is solution focused; I seek to incorporate creativity, mind-body connection, and unconditional positive regard in our work together. One can expect to gain psychoeducation, coping skills, and distress tolerance skills to meet one's goals and reach the place one hopes to be. It is my goal to create a space for individuals that is laid back, safe, silly, and affirming so that clients may show up as their full, authentic self. I hope that one leaves our sessions feeling grounded, witnessed, and a lot less alone.

My name is Vera and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of PA. As a therapist, I have worked in many different settings and have learned much along the way.

I help you find tools that work best for you and help you identify your strengths to move forward in your healing process.

I specialize in working with young adults, college students, recent graduates, and men exploring questions of identity, relationships, purpose, and direction. Clients often describe me as warm, thoughtful, and genuinely curious, appreciating both the ease of our conversations and the depth of our work. My approach is relational and insight-oriented: together, we’ll explore not only what’s causing pain today, but also the patterns and relationships that shape how you experience yourself and others.
Hi, I'm Zora, a trauma-informed, person-centered therapist who believes real clinical work and genuine warmth can coexist. I follow your lead, while adjusting my approach based on what actually helps you and I make sure you always feel in control of the pace, especially when things get hard. However, I won't just sit back and nod, I'll gently challenge you and help you unpack the difficult things, all within a space that feels safe enough to actually do that work. I take clinical, evidence-based practice seriously and everything I do is grounded in solid training paired with real empathy. I also believe in the power of laughter, so don't be surprised if humor finds its way into even the harder conversations. My practice is a space for people ready to do honest work on anxiety, trauma, relationships, or whatever else life is throwing at them.
As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I provide my clients with a safe space to work through their challenges and express their emotions in a healthy way.

Hi, I’m Tiffany Mack. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, but more importantly, I’m someone who’s here to walk alongside you through life’s ups and downs. I know how overwhelming it can feel when challenges pile up, and my goal is to create a space where you can breathe, feel supported, and know you’re not alone.

**Please note that I can do appointments via video or phone call, whichever you prefer**
I am licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) committed to helping people heal and grow from their past and live an authentic life. I help clients navigate life transitions: college/young adulthood, becoming caregivers for parents, perimenopause/menopause, and coming to terms with late-diagnosed neurodivergence. I am especially passionate about helping people navigate relationships with emotionally immature parents and adults. In addition to clinical work, I also have a background in higher education and career counseling.
I value evidence-based treatment! I know approaching mental health can often feel confusing, undefined, and can elicit questions like, "Where do I even begin?"
I want to create a roadmap to feeling better. We'll define markers of progress and track your momentum over time. By creating clear indicators for success, we'll have a clear, grounded approach to treatment.
Further, it is incredibly important to me that you feel safe and welcomed in-session. I know that treatment can be a very vulnerable process, so your comfort is of the utmost importance. We can move at whatever speed feels best to you.
Thank you for your consideration, and I hope to hear from you soon!
I started my career in human services at Northeast Treatment Centers in Philadelphia, PA where, over the course of 7 years, I worked as Youth Advocate for adjudicated adolescents, lead clinician for a community-based treatment team and outpatient therapist. After becoming a licensed psychotherapist in 2014, I worked as an outpatient therapist for multiple companies in the Philadelphia area where I helped clients manage or overcome symptoms related to anxiety, stress, trauma, depression and more.
My therapeutic approach is strongly rooted in humanistic psychology. As described in an article from the Association for Humanistic Psychology, this approach offers a "crucial opportunity to lead our troubled culture back to its own healthy path. More than any other therapy, Humanistic-Existential therapy models democracy. It imposes ideologies of others upon the client less than other therapeutic practices. Freedom to choose is maximized. We validate our client's human potential."
Establishing a relationship with a therapist you can trust can be one of the most important steps you can take in your healing journey. As a therapist, I strive to create a space where you feel safe to be your authentic self and make progress toward who you are becoming as you grow through life’s challenges.
If you choose to partner with me in your healing journey, you will find yourself in a collaborative relationship with a skilled and experienced therapist, who is motivated by the transformative power of compassion and empathy while delivering evidence-based care.
Hello, and welcome! I'm Dr. Alesha Caldwell, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 20 years of experience providing compassionate, evidence-based mental health care to adults and older adults. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, stress, life transitions, and relationship challenges using approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness, EMDR-informed techniques, and strengths-based care.
My goal is to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard, empowered, and equipped with practical tools to improve their emotional well-being. I believe in partnering with each client to develop personalized treatment plans that foster healing, resilience, and lasting personal growth.
I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) and have worked as a therapist treating adults in individual and group therapy for 4 years. I specialize in anxiety, grief, and trauma. My approach includes therapies like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Prolonged Exposure, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Narriative Therapy, and Gestalt Therapy. I'm always looking to expand my approach to best support my clients. My experience has been with community mental heath, two CIRC programs, and providing short term grief therapy at the Medical Examiner's office. Each of these have provided me with greater understanding of the system of care of Philadelphia and the reality of navigating it especially when resources can be nonexistent for housing or other basic needs. My specialities in grief and trauma are two sides of the same coin - intense loss can be traumatic. This philosophy is central to how I approach supporting clients in their journey. Both need to be address to help the healing really start.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor licensed in Pennsylvania. I have experience working in the field of mental health and behavioral health since 2003. I have worked with individuals with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, addiction issues, and other mental health/behavioral health issues. I also helped people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.
I consider myself an eclectic psychotherapist. I believe that no one individual is the same as another, therefore treatment should be personalized. Based on where the individual is at and their goals for life and goals for therapy will determine what technique I will use. Techniques may change from session to session. Some techniques I use include, but not limited to, Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, and Reality Therapy.
People seek therapy for a variety of reasons and seek therapy at different stages in their lives. My therapeutic approach begins with meeting the individual where he/she is currently. Each person and their situation are unique which is why I am a strong believer that person centered is the best approach as therapy is not one size fits all.
I value developing a therapeutic relationship with each individual that I provide services. My goal is to allow the individual to feel comfortable in each session as a result of me offering respect and empathy, being able to accept, and being genuine and authentic. In return I ask that each person is committed to the process and honest throughout.
Taking the steps to seek therapy is the first step to seeking change. If you’re ready to take that step, I am here to guide and support you.
