Are you having a hard time and in need of someone to listen and help you figure things out? Then now is the time to begin therapy. Hello, I’m Michael Zwizanski, a licensed therapist in Philadelphia, working with individual clients throughout Pennsylvania. I hold a Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy from Thomas Jefferson University and I’ve been honored to support clients through a wide range of personal challenges and life transitions. I offer a safe, affirming space for clients to explore challenges such as anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, family conflict, identity issues, and life transitions. My practice is anti-racist, sex-positive, LGBTQ+ competent, and gender-affirming. I recognize my privilege as a cisgender, white, male professional and strive to position myself as an equal collaborator in the therapeutic process, fostering mutual respect and growth. My approach integrates attachment-based therapy, parts work, somatic awareness, and trauma-informed care to help clients understand the emotional roots of their struggles and develop healthier ways of relating to themselves and others. I have experience supporting transgender clients through all stages of social, medical, and legal transition, and I am also competent in working with ethically non-monogamous individuals. Before becoming a therapist, I worked in the entertainment industry. Now, I provide therapy to artists, musicians, actors, and entrepreneurs. Understanding the unique pressures and creative self-doubt they experience, I help clients navigate the drive for self-expression and the obstacles that can impede personal growth. I specialize in helping clients navigate major life transitions—such as becoming a parent, getting married or divorced, changing careers, or coping with health challenges and grief. No matter the transition, I’m here to support you in finding clarity, healing and a path forward. Whether you're feeling anxious, stuck, or seeking a space to grow, I would be honored to support you on your path.

Hello, my name is Geovanni Charles and I am a Licensed Practical Counselor in the state of PA. Originally from New York with a Caribbean background, I saw many instances growing up where mental health was at play, without many people aware of the extent it influenced everyone. My vision is one where mental health can be appreciated and provided to all, because we all have a right to be given help, especially when it comes to health. My mission is to help bridge that gap and provide mental health access to everyone, regardless of their class or status.

Do you feel lost on your path? Our life's journey is not always as clear as we would like it to be. We find ourselves in doubt and unsure - sometimes about work or family life or our romantic relationships. As we hurry through life fulfilling multiple roles, we can lose touch with our authentic Self and symptoms of depression may appear. Valleys are a natural part of everyone's life but you do not need to suffer through these alone. I will be here for you, to listen and give you the safe space to figure things out. It is often in the hard times that we grow the most. I am here for you.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology (MSCP) from Chatham University and a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and Childhood Studies from Rutgers University, where I also minored in Criminal Justice and Gender Studies. My professional background is rooted in advocacy, social justice, and client-centered, trauma-informed care. I specialize in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) and support adolescents, young adults, and adults through deeply human experiences such as interpersonal violence, anxiety, depression, grief, self-doubt, racial identity, complex trauma, and life transitions. My therapeutic work is grounded in evidence-based modalities including CBT, Psychoanalytic, and Psychodynamic therapy—always held within a culturally responsive and client-centered lens. This is more than treatment—it’s connection, truth-telling, and reclamation. I work with you to explore the unconscious roots of your present-day distress—unraveling long-standing relational patterns, internal conflicts, and attachment wounds. Together, we examine how your early experiences have shaped your sense of self and relationships, not to stay in the past, but to understand it with compassion and gain new freedom in the present. I honor the complexity of healing—holding space for ambiguity, contradiction, and growth that unfolds over time. When requested, I integrate Christian counseling techniques—offering faith-based support if you want to explore your relationship with God and see your journey through a Christ-centered lens. Whether your faith is strong or just beginning, I use spiritual reflection, Scripture, and prayer as grounding tools for meaning-making, motivation, and healing. I aim to co-create a space where you can breathe deeper, speak freer, and begin again without shame. This is your space to show up as you are—to be witnessed in your becoming and reclaim your story.

*Please note, I am currently only accepting new clients for daytime appointments* Welcome! My name is Evan Miller and I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and psychotherapist in the state of Pennsylvania. The goal of therapy is to facilitate personal growth and help you improve your life. I believe there is no one-size-fits all approach to therapy, so this can take many shapes and forms depending on your needs. Whether you're looking to build self-awareness, strengthen your relationships, change your unwanted habits, better manage your stress or just feel better emotionally - I am here to help! I consider the therapeutic relationship to be fundamental to all forms of good therapy, so I continually strive to create an environment that is supportive, safe, authentic, comfortable and non-judgmental. While I have specialized training in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (M.I.) and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) for OCD, I utilize a person-centered and integrative approach that also incorporates elements of attachment theory, existential-humanistic theory and harm reduction philosophy.

Everyone deserves to feel heard and believed. One of my first goals in working with you will be to discuss how to create a space and relationship where you feel safe and respected while coming up with a plan to meet your unique needs. Therapy with me is not a place where you are given band-aids. While many techniques I employ can help in the immediate, our goal is to find long-lasting change. This may be uncomfortable or difficult at times, but through that discomfort comes deeper understanding and insight, and ultimately a more healed and meaningful existence. Every human being is unique and you deserve to experience therapy that fits your unique needs rather than a one sized fits all approach. I am trained in a variety of evidence based treatment methods including CBT, DBT, ACT, and trauma informed modalities and will work with you in our sessions to find what works best for you.

I work with adults who carry a lot—responsibility, expectations, and often unresolved trauma—while appearing strong and capable to everyone else. If you struggle with chronic anxiety, burnout, emotional numbness, or a constant sense of pressure, my work is designed to help you slow down, reconnect with yourself, and heal at a deeper level. With over 15 years of clinical experience, my approach is trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and grounded in attachment-based and evidence-based care. I specialize in complex and developmental trauma, as well as high-functioning anxiety and burnout—particularly for clients who have spent years coping, over-functioning, or putting others first. Therapy with me is collaborative, gentle, and deeply intentional. I focus on creating safety and trust first, because meaningful trauma work can only happen when your nervous system feels supported. From that foundation, we work to understand how past experiences continue to shape your anxiety, relationships, self-worth, and sense of safety in the present. Clients often describe my style as warm and supportive, while also appropriately challenging. I will meet you with compassion and respect, and I will also help you notice patterns that keep you stuck so that real, lasting change is possible.

The only constant in life is change. I see my primary role as therapist to be acting as steward and support for a client as they grow and change. I strive to create a safe a supportive space where a client can explore their identity without fear of judgement. I also seek to support my clients during their road to recovery from past trauma, attachment issues, and relationship struggles. I have been working as a therapist trained in supporting folx identifying as LGBTQIA+ as well as trans and gender variant, and have had the honor of supporting teens and adults during their gender exploration and transition. I have exensive training and experience in this area, including training from the CHOP Gender Clinic and through the Mazzoni Center in Philadelphia. Seeking therapeutic support can be a frightening and stressful experience and I seek to be a grounding support person who can provide the feedback and tools necessary to survive and thrive during this process.

Welcome! I'm Kaila Rae, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP). In the last 5 years, I've worked in private practice, college counseling, and crisis counseling, where I had the privilege of walking alongside individuals struggling with a wide range of presenting concerns, including complex trauma, depression, anxiety, grief, relationship issues, disordered eating, OCD, and challenges associated with being neurodivergent. Don't see what you are struggling with in that list? That's okay because no matter how complex whatever brings you here today is—whether it's processing a traumatic past, managing recent loss, or finally addressing a concerning behavior—the core belief of my practice is simple: Your life and all of the problems you've faced are unique, so the path to your healing should be too. Therapy with me is a collaborative partnership in which we tailor every step to your specific needs and goals in a way that honors your lived experience, background, and cultural values as essential components of your treatment. To do this, I draw from a versatile therapy toolkit, including IFS (Internal Family Systems), ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), Somatic, Narrative, and Attachment-based therapies. You are the only expert on your life, so with your knowledge of yourself and my clinical training, we can work together to help you heal and live in alignment with your goals and values.

I strive to help find relief and lasting change within even the first session or two. This begins with the retainable concept of 2 simultaneous paths for clients... 1- How can clients ADDRESS, or take action to remedy or lessen, the sources of their struggles? 2- How clients COPE in effective healthy ways? Addressing and coping are central in my work. It's like having a hornet's nest outside the front door of your home. At times, it's needed to cope with it by using a different door, putting ice on your stings, or allowing yourself a pause from taking on this trouble and finding some respite. Otherwise, it is needed to address the hornet's nest and identify and take action on what is under your control to do about it.

Hi there, I'm Mandy. Are you feeling stuck or held back from the life you truly want to live? Life’s challenges—stress, pain, and unresolved experiences—often settle in our bodies, shaping how we move through the world. These experiences impact our nervous system, relationships, and sense of safety until we learn to work with them. By gently turning toward these parts of ourselves, we create space for healing and growth. My goal is to support you to feel heard, seen, and empowered to transform these challenges. Through mind-body-spirit integration, you'll reconnect, find balance, and discover what transformation means for you.

My practice assists Black clients across North America who are impacted by a range of concerns including trauma, anxiety, and depression through a racially-sensitive treatment approach. We also work with individual clients seeking to improve their self-concept by understanding and processing the impact of historical and generational racial trauma on their relationships with themselves, their families, their friends, and their partners. I am a therapist who strives to fully understand my clients and their needs to create an optimized approach to meet their goals. I specialize in working primarily with individual adult clients to help them deal with issues such as infidelity, communication, stress management, anger management, relationship building, sexuality, etc. At Yolo Therapy, our ultimate goal is the well-being of our clients. For various reasons, many clients are unable to access traditional therapy settings but I do not believe that should prevent them from receiving exceptional services. I have catered my practice to the needs of those who need alternative options to therapy and am here to help you. ****Please note: Your initial session is ONLY TO ASSESS FOR THERAPEUTIC COMPATIBILITY. ****

Welcome to SLAY Therapy, where today’s the day to SLAY: Start Loving All of You! I’m Akeesha M. Washington, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), Certified Advanced Alcohol & Drug Counselor (CAADC), and National Certified Counselor (NCC)—and your dedicated SLAY Therapist and Certified Slayer of Mental Health Stigmas. With over 14+ years of experience, I’ve made it my mission to offer inclusive, compassionate, and yes, a little bit fabulous therapy! I’ve worked in a wide range of settings, from schools to community mental health centers, and now I bring that diverse expertise into my private practice. Whether you’re an individual, couple, or family, I provide therapy that’s culturally competent, trauma-informed, and tailored to your unique journey, using approaches like CBT, EMDR, DBT, and Racial Trauma Therapy. A proud Philadelphia native, I hold two graduate degrees from the University of Pennsylvania, an Executive MBA from Temple University’s Fox School of Business, and a bachelor's degree from Kutztown University. My practice is primarily focused on supporting BIPOC communities in navigating mental health, dismantling stigma, and improving access to quality care. However, I also welcome anyone seeking therapy through a culturally competent, anti-racist, queer-affirming, and inclusive lens. My approach is rooted in understanding the cultural, social, and racial dynamics that impact mental health. At SLAY Therapy, my goal is simple: to create a space where you feel empowered to embrace your whole self, no filters needed. Today’s the day to SLAY: Start Loving All of You. Let’s slay together!

Do you feel stuck in overthinking, anxiety, or constant worry—even when things “should” be fine? Or like you’re carrying stress all the time and can’t fully shut your mind off? I provide a supportive, affirming space to help you slow down, feel understood, and start feeling more grounded again. I work with individuals and couples who feel overwhelmed, emotionally drained, or disconnected—especially during life transitions, relationship stress, or seasons of burnout. Therapy with me is a place to sort through what’s been weighing on you and build practical tools you can actually use in real life. With couples, I help partners improve communication, break out of repeating cycles, and rebuild emotional safety, trust, and connection. I work with both heterosexual and LGBTQ+ couples, and I prioritize creating a space where each person feels heard and respected. With individuals, I support clients who want to manage anxiety, reduce rumination, strengthen boundaries, and feel more confident in their decisions and relationships. My style is supportive, honest, and collaborative—focused on insight and progress. If you’re ready to feel more clear, steady, and in control of your life and relationships, I’d be glad to work with you.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by Pennsylvania rather than a city like Philadelphia?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in Pennsylvania. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Pennsylvania from Pittsburgh to Scranton! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Pennsylvania.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What to expect during your first session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
