Hello, I am a licensed professional counselor in Pennsylvania. I have been a therapist for twenty years and in the Human Services Field for 30 plus years. I like to work with trauma clients, and feel I can help people get through their traumatic issues. I am a Doctor of Psychology and have worked more than 10 years in Drug and Alcohol, with families and children and Mental Health. I also have a Masters in Counseling and two undergraduate degrees in Social Work and Special Education.

Hello! I am from the state of Michigan but I also have licenses in Utah and Pennsylvania. I have been in practice for 6 years. I work with people 16 and up, both online and in person. I have a passion for helping people who are struggling whether that be trying to navigate a big life change or just being the best version of yourself for you, not everyone around you.

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.

Welcome! I’m an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) practicing in Pennsylvania and the founder of Blythe Wellness.

I have worked in the treatment since i was 36 and have 35 years of experience. My early experience was in the drug and alcohol and relapse prevention field. During that time i attended the Gestalt Institute in Cleveland, Ohio where I took 4 years of intense training. This lead me to find that therapy is not a method for me to figure out the client but a means for the client to gain greater self-awareness in facing their own life aspirations and struggles. I place focus on clients’ somatic awareness, especially breath, so being more in their body so they can try on new physical and intellectual styles in facing their world. I have a lot of knowledge about what is called the 12 step process and have melded together spirituality and religion in my own life. Prior to being a counselor/ therapist i taught school, painted steel bridges and other structures, and was a machinist at a large steel company, that like the many in our area have since closed their shops.

Hello, I’m Dr. J, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a PhD in Social Work and specialized training in mental health education and complex trauma. I bring both clinical expertise and a deep personal understanding of how chronic stress, identity shifts, and emotional overwhelm impact daily life and relationships. I am a wife, mother to two young adults, and grandmother so I understand how you feel. I specialize in working with women who often appear capable, organized, and “on top of things” on the outside, while internally feeling overwhelmed, anxious, and emotionally exhausted. Many of the women I work with are balancing the demands of parenting, work, and relationships while quietly struggling with burnout, identity loss, and the mental load of motherhood. In our work together, I help you slow down and make sense of what is happening beneath the surface. Many women come to therapy feeling like they are constantly “on” mental overloaded, or unable to rest even when they have the space to do so. Together, we explore how chronic stress is showing up in your thoughts, emotions, relationships, and nervous system. A central focus of my work is helping you reconnect with yourself. Many women describe feeling disconnected from their identity outside of caregiving roles. Therapy becomes a space to explore who you are now, what you need, and how to create a life that feels more balanced. I also support women in navigating relationship changes that often occur during motherhood, including communication challenges, emotional disconnect, and shifting roles within partnerships. As you begin to understand your emotional patterns, you may notice meaningful changes in how you show up in your daily life. Therapy with me is a supportive space where you do not have to hold everything together on your own. I'm here for you.

Hi! My name is Caterina and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in the Philadelphia area. I earned my Master of Social Work degree from the University of Pennsylvania and have experience providing care individuals facing a wide range of challenges, including substance use disorders and complex medical concerns. My work is grounded in a strengths-based, person-in-environment perspective, recognizing that each individual’s experiences are shaped by their relationships, communities, and broader systems. Drawing from both psychiatric and medical social work experience, I support clients navigating mental health symptoms, life transitions, and health-related stressors. I strive to create a nonjudgmental and supportive environment where clients feel comfortable exploring difficult emotions, identifying their inherent strengths, and building practical tools for meaningful, sustainable change.

Taking the time to start therapy and acknowledge our own personal struggles is the first, and often times, most difficult step in the healing process. I believe that therapy can offer the space for one to process relationships, career changes, grief, and life transitions in depth with safety and clarity. As a therapist, I aim to offer insight in helping clients identify their own values and assist them in aligning said values with their life choices to connect one's sense of self. I also help clients explore how their experiences may have impacted them and offering ways one can use that understanding for self healing and growth.

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. I guide them through shaping and training their mind, overcoming suffering, and thriving in the process of it all.

Greetings, my name is John Luke.

I have worked with a range of populations, nearly all ages, and also have experience with addiction treatment and life-coaching.

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 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. My name is John Petkac and I have been providing psychotherapy services for over 29 years. In addition to clinical psychology, I have background and education in music education, philosophy, spirituality and religion. My background and life experience gives me an ability to see a larger picture of situations in life and offer unique resolutions to things that may be occuring. I am a strong believer in the individual's ability to address and resolve their own issues. Through the process of therapy, we will explore what has been working for you and what has not. It is my belief and practice to treat the person, not the symptoms or the problem. We will work on building and adding to the skills you already possess to help you to build a more fulfilling life. An integral part of this process is assisting you in an increased understanding and awareness of yourself. Personal growth involves seeing and making informed choices. Therein lies the importance of self-awareness - there is no choice where there is no awareness. Raising a level of self-awareness increases your ability to have and make choices. Through exploration of these factors and possibly more, we will work toward a resolution that works for you and one that allows you to live a fuller and happier life.

Hello! I am Donna and I am glad you are here! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania. I achieved my Master of Human Services from Lincoln University in Pennsylvania while also parenting my youngest children who were still at home. I have experience working with many different age groups and populations, from pre-teen to 80. I have experience with addictions, depression, anxiety, schizophrenia and personality disorders. I have worked with individuals and couples. My primary focus is adjustment disorders, anxiety and forensic referrals for those 18 and older. I am also willing to work from a Biblical perspective.

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.

Hello I'm Jackie. Do you feel pulled in a million directions, unable to fit it all in? Are you struggling to keep up with your relationships, work and health? Is it hard to be kind to yourself? Are you faced with emotional challenges, do you long for clarity on the how, the why, and the what to do, and because understanding is always that one step closer to your healing I will help you answer the tough questions. If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, communication, relationship issues, grief, self worth, and more, you may need the help of a professional to help you on your journey to psychological health. I understand that facing the insurmountable stresses of life leaves many feeling uncertain about their place and purpose in the world. This is why I utilize a person-centered, evidence based approach to therapy that allows an individual the opportunity to discover and identify abilitIes that lead to accessing a successful life. Providing a safe, judgment-free, trustworthy and compassionate environment is the space I create as a therapist. In this space I help individuals focus on their individual needs, validate their experiences, unlock their inner strengths, and in so doing, reclaim their power to navigate a fulfilling life that is healed.

I work from a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Strengths Based, and Person-Centered Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Family Systems Therapy framework. I believe that we are essentially equipped with insight on who we are and passion to learn more about ourselves in order for use to lead healthy lives. But sometimes the picture is unclear or hidden under other things in our lives. In order to unveil and begin the journey of leading healthier lives, it is important for me to create a space that is open-minded, non-judgmental and a unconditional positive experience when someone shares their personal story or experiences with me. Our relationship with our self and others has worth and is useful to explore in counseling.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Pennsylvania and have been working in the field for five years. I have a master's degree in Marriage and Family Counseling/Therapy, so it is not uncommon for me to provide family and couple's therapy in addition to individual therapy. I treat a number of disorders and issues including but not limited to: ADHD, anger, anxiety, autism, behavioral disorders, depression, family difficulties, OCD, PTSD and other trauma disorders, relationship difficulties, and social anxiety. I am an EMDRIA certified therapist practicing EMDR. EMDR is helpful, especially for individuals with a history of trauma or other experiences found distressing, as it helps people change the way the brain has stored the traumatic or distressing memory so that it no longer has the same negative impact on the individual. I aim to build a strong therapeutic rapport with clients as this is beneficial to treatment and, often, helps expedite treatment. I take into account the unique experience of each individual and offer a safe space free of judgement for clients to feel heard.

Welcome! My name is Renee Cavalier. I have been in practice for 20 years; 15 in private practice. In addition, I have experience in community mental health, behavioral health rehabilitative services (restructured as IBHS), and university/research settings. I am also a licensed attorney; however, my sole focus is on psychotherapy. I genuinely enjoy the practice of psychotherapy, and I have great respect for the clients I serve and the process in which they engage. I look forward to meeting with you!
