All behavior is purposeful. This means that we never do anything for no reason. Even when our behavior appears confusing or counterproductive to our values, our behavior has meaning and purpose. Therapy is a setting where we can gain insight about the origins of our perceptions, thinking and behavior. With clearer understanding, we are better equipped to identify factors within our control and consider alternative responses to our conditions. We gain awareness of the needs that are being met by potentially self-defeating thinking or behaviors and have a special opportunity to practice new thinking in the safety of therapy.

If you've been feeling overwhelmed, stuck, anxious, emotionally exhausted, or like you're carrying more than you can manage on your own, therapy can be a place to slow down, make sense of what's happening, and begin moving toward the life you want. Whether you're working through anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, recovery, therapy can provide a place to better understand what you're experiencing, build practical coping skills, and create meaningful, lasting change. My goal is to help you feel comfortable and overcome hurdles. Here you'll have space to be honest without fear of judgment while also learning practical skills you can use outside of therapy. I believe the most meaningful progress happens not only during our sessions, but in the small moments between them as you begin applying what you've learned in your everyday life. Most importantly, you don't have to show up as your “perfect” self. Come as you are—whether you're hopeful, skeptical, anxious, or simply unsure where to begin. This is a down-to-earth space where you can be yourself, and together we'll work toward helping you feel more confident, resilient, and like yourself again!

I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 25 years of experience working with children and adults. I have primarily worked within school systems as an on-site therapist; as well as in my own private practice. I work with people who have a variety of concerns, including: trauma, attachment, grief and loss, divorce, school problems, anxiety and depression, life-phase transitions, and family conflicts. I value an eclectic and prescriptive therapeutic model, and am skilled at shifting gears when the need arises. My specialty is working with children 2 to 12. As a registered play therapist/supervisor, I understand the language that children routinely use to communicate: play. Through play therapy, children can explore new roles, act out challenging situations, and re-work beliefs about themselves and others.

In addition to play therapy, I have trained extensively in EMDR (for children and adults), Jungian sandtray, the Oaklander Model of Gestalt Play therapy, Mindfulness, and Theraplay. Every one of these modalities is meant to foster relationships built on safety, warmth, security, and trust. My work with adult clients can be described as "going deep." I especially enjoy working with adult women going through life transitions (career, family, spiritual). In addition, I am interested in working with other therapists who experience clinical burnout.

Hi there—it's a pleasure to meet you. I am a Masters‑Level Board‑Certified Music Therapist and Licensed Professional Counselor with more than two decades of experience supporting individuals across inpatient, residential, partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient, and outpatient settings. I understand how much courage it takes to reach out for support, and I strive to make therapy a place where you feel safe, understood, and free from judgment.

Hi there! I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Pennsylvania, and I have worked in the mental health field since 2005. I earned my Master's Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Indiana University of Pennsylvania. I have worked with a wide range of clients from adolescents and adults in both individual and group settings. I specialize in working with individuals who struggle with PTSD, anxiety, depression, self-esteem and communication difficulties.

Hi, I'm Cory Ian Shafer, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with my Masters in Counseling. I have been practicing professionally in the counseling field since 2005 and have worked in the mental health field since 1999. I approach therapy primarily as a Jungian-Existentialist, however, I also realize that many clients may need different approaches to achieve their success, and because of that I also incorporate an eclectic approach towards therapy in addition to my primary school of thought, therefore I can utilize many different modalities and approaches of therapy depending on the what you need in your sessions. My specializations are working with anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction and grief counseling. I also like to write a little bit and have published a few books concerning the human condition. On the personal side of things I lead a simple and quiet life, where I enjoy reading history, science fiction and philosophy books, playing the bass guitar, listening to music, traveling and amateur astronomy. www.coryianshaferlpc.com
