I am committed to guiding you through life's challenges. I enjoy creating a therapeutic space without judgment and I utilize a conversation-based method to build therapeutic rapport.

Hello! I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of PA and I specialize in addressing a variety of concerns including anxiety, nervous system disregulation, body image issues, depression, motivation issues and resolving unhealthy habits as well as addressing issues such as stress management, grief, aging, life and career transitions and more. I take an integrative approach that focuses heavily on wellness and the interconnectedness of physical and mental health. Prior to my 15 years in the mental health field, I spent 15 years in Operations Management with Walmart Logistics. I returned to school in my early 40s, earned a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, then spent the next several years working towards my license. During that time I worked in a variety of settings including outpatient and community mental health, intensive family services, and most recently private practice. In addition to my years of experience in the mental health field, I have decades of work and life experiences that have shaped my ability to be a knowledgeable and compassionate therapist. I have supported clients of all ages and backgrounds. I provide affirming, non-discriminatory care to all individuals and I work to create a welcoming and non-judgmental environment where you can seek to be your happiest and healthiest self. I love working with clients who are seeking growth and development as they navigate different stages of life and who take an active interest in participating in their own success. I look forward to meeting you and discussing how we can work together to achieve your goals!

Welcome! If you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or just tired of being the strong one, I offer a safe, welcoming space where you can be heard. This is your time! My style is open, down-to-earth and attentive.

Hello! I'm Leah, a Licensed Professional Counselor with 22 years of experience providing compassionate, supportive mental health care to adults, teens, and families. I’m licensed in both Missouri and Pennsylvania, and throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of helping people navigate challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma, family conflict, and personality disorders. My approach is warm, genuine, and collaborative. I believe that feeling heard and understood is an important part of the therapeutic process, and I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients can be comfortable being themselves. Whether someone is working through a difficult transition, navigating relationships, healing from past experiences, or simply feeling stuck, I enjoy helping clients better understand themselves, build on their strengths, and develop practical tools to create meaningful and lasting change.

I’m a dedicated mental health professional with over 10 years of experience in the helping professions, driven by a deep passion for supporting people in creating meaningful, lasting change. I specialize in treating anxiety and related disorders, grief and loss, depression, as well as relationship and attachment issues. I also have extensive experience working in addiction and behavioral health, supporting individuals through recovery with compassion, structure, and practical tools for sustainable progress. I also work with anxiety disorders and phobias, helping clients better understand their patterns and gradually overcome avoidance so they can live more freely. A core part of my work focuses on self-confidence and self-image. I help clients challenge negative self-beliefs, strengthen their sense of identity, and develop a more balanced and compassionate relationship with themselves. My approach is collaborative, nonjudgmental, and tailored to each individual’s goals. I believe therapy should feel both supportive and empowering—giving you the skills, insight, and confidence to navigate life’s challenges long after our work together ends.

Hello! I am Christina. I'm a LCSW dedicated to providing a warm, collaborative, and non-judgmental space where you can explore life’s challenges and work toward meaningful growth. I believe deeply in a strengths-based approach, meeting you right where you are while honoring your resilience, agency, and capacity for change because therapy is a partnership. Whether you are navigating overwhelming stress, major life transitions, anxiety, or the complexities of life through substance use recovery, my goal is to meet you exactly where you are. My primary therapeutic framework is Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), helping you build psychological flexibility, align with your core values, and move forward even amidst discomfort. Additionally, I am trained in Trauma-Focused CBT (TF-CBT) to help process and heal from past experiences that may be impacting your present to help you build practical coping tools while honoring your unique story and strengths.

I’m Crissy Miyake, a licensed clinical psychologist who understands the benefit of therapy and the difficulty in asking for help. Specializing in anxiety, depression, stress, and trauma recovery, my initial priority is always to create an interaction that feels authentic, safe, and welcoming. Former clients have described me as “down to earth,” warm, and direct. Sessions together will be an active collaboration and our conversations will be a mixture of guided topic discussion, structured discovery, and fluid exploration. I also naturally incorporate humor and often recommend resources (readings, worksheets, podcasts, etc.) to reinforce the work in between sessions.

*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.

I'm Jade Leonard, a Licensed Professional Counselor, Army veteran, and trauma informed professional who's dedicated to helping people reclaim their lives. My journey in the military and as a mother has taught me resilience, discipline, and the quiet strength it takes to face life's toughest challenges, and I bring the same dedication to my therapy practice. I specialize in DBT, trauma informed care, and Solution Focused modalities.

My mission is simple, to transform strength into growth, pain into resilience, and challenges into opportunity.

Hi! I completed my degree at Capital Seminary & Graduate School, where I earned my Master’s degree in Family, Couple, and Marriage Counseling. I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with a heart for walking alongside others while they work through various types of challenges and difficulties in life. I believe therapy is not a one size fits all situation, I work in tandem with my clients, I listen to their needs, and together, we create a treatment that will help you achieve your goals.

I'm a therapist who uses many different approaches to help clients increase their satisfaction with their personal lives, jobs, and relationships. Using a person-centered approach, the client and therapist work together to better understand and solve the client's problems. I work with the client to obtain positive change in their life. I use many different treatment approaches to help the client reach their goals.

I have been practicing since 2014 and have worked in a variety of contexts within the scope of therapy- ranging from children, couple's work, adults, teenagers, and the aging population. I deliver an authentic approach to therapy that punctuates the importance of the relationship between client and therapist as the primary mechanism for change. I believe all clients deserve to be met with dignity and respect and try to convey that in sessions.

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.

How much of your life is spent waiting to feel confident enough to live it? I’m Fred, a licensed clinical social worker who works with adults struggling with anxiety, addiction, relationship difficulties, and major life stress. My practice is direct, collaborative, and practical. I draw primarily from Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and other evidence-based approaches. A lot of people come to therapy believing they need more confidence, more clarity, or more certainty before they can move forward. Often, confidence is built differently: by learning to act, adapt, and make meaningful decisions even while doubt, anxiety, and difficult emotions are still present. Together, we’ll work on changing the patterns that keep you stuck and building the flexibility and confidence to move toward the life you want.

I’m a licensed therapist with over a decade of experience supporting neurodiverse individuals and people navigating anxiety, depression, and self‑doubt. My background spans community‑based work, clinical practice, and school‑based therapy, and those experiences have shaped the way I show up with clients: calm, empathic, and steady. I create a space where you can slow down, feel understood, and explore what’s been weighing on you without pressure or judgment. Together, we work to deepen self‑care, ease anxious or self‑critical thoughts, strengthen coping skills, and build relationships that feel healthier and more supportive. If you’re looking for a therapist who meets you exactly where you are — with compassion, clarity, and a grounding presence — I’d be glad to support your growth.

Nastassja Hanna is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), National Certified Counselor (NCC), and founder of Lumen Counseling, providing online therapy, virtual therapy, and telehealth counseling throughout Pennsylvania. She works with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, OCD, intrusive thoughts, overthinking, perfectionism, trauma and PTSD, depression, BPD and emotional dysregulation, relationship problems, and life transitions. You may feel exhausted from constantly worrying, replaying conversations, second-guessing yourself, checking or seeking reassurance, trying to stay ahead of what could go wrong, or managing emotions that feel overwhelming. Maybe painful experiences continue to affect you, or you keep finding yourself in patterns you understand but cannot seem to change. Nastassja helps clients look beneath the symptoms to understand what may be keeping them stuck, develop practical tools, and make meaningful changes. Her approach is warm, analytical, compassionate, practical, and values-driven. She believes you are more than your struggles and seeks to understand your experiences, relationships, strengths, beliefs, values, and goals. Her work helps clients develop the tools to respond differently to life’s challenges and make choices aligned with what truly matters to them. Christian counseling and faith-integrated therapy are available upon request.

I completed most of my licensing hours in Utah, then moved to Pennsylvania where I completed my LCSW in 06/2019. I also have a background in criminal justice and healthcare.

A plan, specific actions and personalized strategies - This is what I give my clients to help them get unstuck, overcome suffering, and fully enjoy the important things in their life. The Bible, ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), and neuropsychology - The sources of wisdom I use to guide our plans and strategies. When life throws you for a loop, your mind and emotions are overwhelming and don't make sense, and you don't know what to do, you need someone who understands the mind and emotions, and how to tame them. I'm Dr. Matt Bridgman. I am a follower of Jesus Christ, a husband and father, and a clinical psychologist and board certified neuropsychologist. I have a Master's degree in Christian Leadership and a PhD in Clinical Psychology, both from Fuller Theological Seminary. I've been studying the human mind (mood, emotions, behavior, cognition) for over 20 years, through the lenses of God's Word and neuropsychology. I've helped thousands of people with mood/emotion and also cognitive troubles coming from many sources: depression, anxiety, trauma and PTSD, concussions and traumatic brain injury, multiple sclerosis, stroke, and numerous other mental health, neurological, and physical health conditions. I've worked in community counseling centers, inpatient psychiatry units, big academic medical centers, small community hospitals, outpatient behavioral health clinics, neurology clinics, inpatient physical rehabilitation units, and VA medical centers. I'm excited now to be helping others through my own private practice. I help my clients not just through empathy and good listening, but through helping them understand their own mind better.

Hello, it's nice to meet you! My name is Pamela and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of PA.

I am so happy you are taking the next step for your mental health and wellness! My name is Heather Phelps, owner of HLP Wellness Solutions, Licensed Professional Counselor, and CAADC ( Certified Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor). I am a seasoned clinician having worked in all aspects of intensity in behavioral health; detox, residential, partial hospital, intensive outpatient, and general outpatient. I have experience working with substance use disorders, behavioral addictions, anxiety, codependency, depression, trauma, first responders, personality disorders, and mood disorders. I offer a client centered approach to care, valuing honesty, compassion, and accountability.

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.

Hi there! My name is Dan'Yell and I'm excited to be considered for your journey in your mental health. The experiences I have gained over various levels of care started from inpatient all the way to outpatient care. I am happy to assist in my own local community through fundraising programs as well. I like to think that from individual counseling to community action, there are various ways to positively impact individuals in their own personal journeys.

Hi 👋🏽 I'm Dr. Judge! I specialize in supporting women and mothers through life's challenges, relationship concerns, and personal growth. This may include helping you manage anxiety, depression, mood swings, irritability, and burnout. Between motherhood, work, relationships, and the many responsibilities of everyday life, it's easy to lose sight of your own needs. Maybe you're navigating a new season of motherhood, trying to communicate more effectively in your relationships, working on setting boundaries, or simply wanting to feel more connected to yourself. I offer a warm, compassionate, faith-centered space where you can talk openly, gain perspective, and explore what matters most to you. You don't have to be in crisis to benefit from therapy. Sometimes, having a space to think things through, understand yourself better, and consider new ways of approaching life's challenges can make a meaningful difference. My approach is relational, collaborative, and practical. I believe that feeling heard and understood is an important part of growth. Together, we explore your concerns, identify patterns, and develop strategies that support the life and relationships you want to build.

Hi, I'm Trish Pierzga, and I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with 6+ years of experience. I know that life can be challenging and difficult. I also know that it is easy to feel stuck. My goal for each session is help you feel comfortable so you can explore and move past those challenges. When I think about what I look for in a therapist myself, it is someone who listens, is not afraid to challenge me, and helps guide me through life's transitions. I believe I bring this style to my own clients. I love what I do and I bring this excitement into my sessions because I want people to feel safe and grow in their confidence to overcome the obstacles they are facing.

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.

I am a licensed professional counselor looking to help others find their full potential by using an eclectic approach to therapy. If you find yourself aimlessly scrolling through profiles in search of an authentic therapist, I may be a great fit for you. I find that being authentic with clients is what helps them build a foundation and feel safe enough to share their issues and concerns. I practice from a person-centered approach while mixing in elements of CBT to help clients guide their treatment while also holding them accountable. I specialize in the use of art therapy to help clients communicate and process various topics that may be difficult to speak about. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, issues with substance abuse, or relationship issues, I'm here to help. Throughout my career in therapy, I have focused on treatment of Veterans, first responders, and those who have experienced trauma. Seeking treatment can be difficult, but if you've already taken this first step in searching for a therapist then you've likely already identified that this is something you can benefit from with the right help. If you've been reading this far and I seem like a good fit for you, let's work together!

Hello! My name is Haley and I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. My goal as a therapist is to support and promote personal growth and emotional well-being using a trauma informed, strengths based approach. I strive to provide a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space for you to explore and process feelings, develop new tools to navigate life, and work toward your identified goals. I have experience working with clients to manage anxiety, mood challenges, substance use, relational difficulties, and life stressors.

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.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master's Degree in Counseling Psychology and over 25 years of experience providing therapy to individuals. I draw from a variety of therapeutic modalities and I'm dedicated to offering high quality care in a safe, supportive environment where insight, healing, and personal growth can flourish. My approach to therapy is grounded in support, insight, and collaboration. I work with clients to address current challenges and long-standing patterns, offering guidance and compassion along the way. Together, we explore your story, identify your needs, and develop strategies to help you reach your personal goals. Feeling heard and understood is at the heart of healing, and it’s something I strive to offer every client. I approach each person with genuine curiosity and compassion, seeking to understand the experiences that have shaped who they are. I believe everyone deserves the chance to become their best self and create a life that feels meaningful and fulfilling.

Integrating clinical expertise with Christian values, I strive to support emotional healing, resilience, and personal growth. I believe true healing occurs when mind, body, and spirit are nurtured together. My work focuses on helping clients manage stress, regulate emotions and move forward with hope, faith, and intention while honoring each individual's unique journey. I completed my undergraduate studies at the University of South Florida and my graduate studies at the University of South Carolina. Throughout my career, I have served diverse populations, including children, adolescents, young adults, adults, and older adults.

I’ve been providing direct therapy since 2008 and am currently licensed to practice in three states. My approach is eclectic and client-centered, grounded in the belief that each individual processes and learns differently—so therapy should reflect that. Whether short-term or long-term, I’m here to support you in gaining new insight, building confidence, and moving forward in your life and relationships.

Hi, I'm Nick. Clients who end up finding me are often capable and self-aware, but still find themselves overthinking, shutting down, becoming defensive, or feeling responsible for other people’s emotions. They often grew up being treated as “the problem” in their family of origin, and have learned to mask important parts of themselves, or were told their needs and reactions were too much. I work with LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent individuals who want to understand why certain patterns keep returning, and actually change them in a deeper way beyond just self-awareness and insight. I view symptoms as having developed for understandable reasons and still feel necessary in situations that trigger implicit learnings from the past. Together, we’ll become curious about what a very specific pattern might be protecting and develop new ways to respond. The aim here is to create greater self-trust to allow for actual meaningful change.

I have worked in an inpatient behavioral health center for the last 15 years which has provided me a great opportunity to gain experience with most of the reasons why someone would seek therapy. I prefer to not take the role of the "expert" in therapy and feel it is important to have a collaborative approach. That doesn't mean that I won't challenge you or point out maladaptive behavioral patterns/thought processes. I pride myself on being personal and authentic while keeping the focus on you.

Hi! Welcome to Taking The Reins LLC! I’m Ciera a Licensed Professional Counselor dedicated to creating a safe and supportive space where clients can explore, heal, and grow. I specialize in helping individuals navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, and life transitions.

Welcome! I’m Emma, and I’m so glad you’re here. Taking the first step toward mental wellness can feel daunting, but it doesn’t have to be. My goal as a therapist is to help guide you through life’s challenges so that you can discover your true potential and build the life you truly deserve. I understand that starting therapy can be a big decision, and I want you to know that you're not alone in this process.

I also draw on a person-centered approach, ensuring that you feel heard, understood, and respected in every session. If you’re ready to take that first step toward building the life you deserve, I’m here when you’re ready to share. Let’s work together to create the positive change you’re seeking.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist with specialized education and training in trauma-informed care. I believe most human suffering stems from the stress and trauma of existing within oppressive societal systems that seek to disconnect us from ourselves and others. I am deeply committed to examining, dismantling, and providing space to heal from these destructive systems. The therapeutic relationship should offer a safe environment to process chronic stress and trauma, explore the survival strategies you have developed, and build new skills that serve your present life. I am particularly interested in the mind-body connection—specifically regarding chronic stress and the nervous system—and I continually integrate somatic practices into my work with clients. As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, I understand how crucial it can be to find a therapist who understands the unique experience of navigating a heteronormative world. I have experience working in gender-affirming and HIV+ healthcare settings with trans, non-binary, gay, lesbian, and queer clients. I am dedicated to providing intersectional care across race, class, gender, religion, ethnicity, age, disability status, and all other identities. This means I will always consider how your various identities interact and influence how you move through and are treated in this world. If you are interested in a free 15-minute phone consultation, please schedule your first session with at least a week's notice so that we have time to connect. I will reach out prior to the scheduled appointment. I offer sliding scale (for private-pay clients) and weekend time slots on an as-needed basis, which we can discuss during the phone consultation.

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.

Greetings, my name is John Luke. I am a licensed clinical social worker and specialize in helping people to effectively manage anxiety, depression, and other mental health concerns using cognitive behavioral techniques. I have worked with a range of populations, nearly all ages, and also have experience with addiction treatment and life-coaching. I work with people to develop insight into the source of their problems, how their core beliefs about the world might be hindering their progress, and focus on their natural strengths to overcome those barriers with practical skills that generate sustainable change. Some of my other specialties include short-term, solution-focused therapy; cognitive behavioral therapy techniques; psychodynamic approaches; and marital counseling. Some of the problems I am particularly keen on solving with my clients include issues with self-image and confidence; dating and relationships; boundary-setting and assertive communication; as well as general anxiety management; and learning to identify and productively resolve emotional unrest. I am also very experienced in cognitive restructuring, which is just a fancy way of saying helping to change the way a person thinks about the world and their place in it. I also enjoy aiding people in goal setting and identification, meaning-making, and navigating family conflicts. If you feel any of this could be helpful or useful to you, please do not hesitate to reach out! (Note: I do work with couples, but only on a cash-pay basis. Also, I only work with ages 18+)

Hello, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and have been practicing in Pennsylvania for 4 years. I provide a calming and relaxed approach to therapy centered around validation and acceptance of your experience that can allow for a better understanding of what you can and cannot control in your life. From this perspective, we can better understand how to approach any difficulties that occur in your life.

“My style of therapy draws from Cognitive Behavioral, Acceptance and Commitment therapy/mindfulness. My passion is for learning your story and working alongside you to find the solutions that work for you. I’m here to help you examine what you’ve already lived through and find the path forward. In my work with people with trauma I’ve learned that we often need the reminder – no matter what you have struggled with; you are a survivor and that needs to be brought to light. Keeping that in mind, I am guided by the client towards the goals that they feel are necessary for their treatment.”

Being a therapist has seemed like a natural progression for me. I have always been able to easily relate to others and meet them where they are. I have taken my own struggles and used them to help make myself stronger and be able to gain insight into how to help others who may be struggling. I think anyone can benefit through the self-exploration that comes with therapy. I find it rewarding to see the progress people are capable of and to help them see the progress themselves. I have many years of experience working with children and families as well as adults and couples. I have worked with individuals and families with children as young as 3 with a variety of concerns. I am a trauma-informed therapist who is trained in Prolonged Exposure Therapy to treat PTSD symptoms. I am trained in different approaches. I have experiencing with LGBTQIA individuals. I also use TTRPG's in therapy setting. I provide therapy that is non-judgemental and I seek to meet each person individually and see what they are experiencing and then build from there to solve or change. I’m here to provide you with the support you need to feel better than when we first begin.

Hi, I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience in behavioral health. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, grief and loss, relationship concerns, life transitions, and self-esteem challenges. My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical. I believe therapy should provide a space where you feel heard, understood, and supported while also gaining tools you can use in your everyday life. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Motivational Interviewing to help clients gain insight, develop effective coping strategies, build on their strengths, and create meaningful, lasting change. Outside of my work as a therapist, I’m a dog lover and enjoy spending time outdoors. I value the sense of connection, balance, and perspective that both animals and nature can bring to our lives.

There are times in our lives when we feel uncertain- may be questioning direction or unsure of the path to continue on. I have been there and my desire is to help you in this time. Whether you are experiencing grief, struggling with a life transition, having a difficult time connecting with others, or are just struggling in general- you don’t have to do it alone. I am passionate about this work and have spent the last 14 years supporting individuals in major life transitions - often times where there lives had been at rock bottom and I had the honor of helping them to find their light again. Throughout that time in my career I learned many things and want to help apply that knowledge to supporting you. I have a passion for helping people find joy in difficult seasons and have experienced abrupt changes and the importances of finding support. I want you to leave our sessions feeling like you have a plan and that a weight has been lifted.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, stressed, or burned out? When life becomes too much, it can lead to anxiety, low energy, decreased productivity, and strain in relationships. Many people come to therapy during moments like these — when they’re trying to hold everything together but feel themselves slipping. If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone, and better days are absolutely possible. I’m a licensed professional counselor in Pennsylvania with over 30 years of experience helping adults navigate anxiety, trauma, OCD, PTSD, depression, work stress, grief, and major life transitions. I specialize in trauma-informed care and integrative approaches that help you understand what’s happening internally and build tools to feel more grounded, capable, and connected. My style is warm, collaborative, and structured. Therapy with me is a safe place to explore your thoughts and emotions, understand patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and turn insight into meaningful action in your daily life. Together, we’ll identify your strengths, clarify your goals, and develop practical strategies to help you move toward the life you want.

My name is Kaleb. I am a Christian, a husband, a father, and a military veteran. I strive to help others recognize that healing is possible. It must be received, and we cannot achieve it on our own. Together, we can set the stage for healing to happen, but it requires intentional work, and it can be hard. The work we do requires Honest self-reflection, Openness to changing how we see things and do things, and a Willingness to put in the work to make meaningful change happen. My goal is to help you learn to recognize things that are within your control - your reactions, your words, your behaviors - and to change the things within your control that are not helping you be who you want to be. When this recognition starts to shape, then change will naturally come out of this.
