Sometimes you just can't. You have been trying so hard for so long but you feel like a failure. You just don't adult like other people. This can show up looking like Anxiety, Depression or even stuff like OCD or Social Anxiety symptoms. Often this pain relates to trauma. It could be a history of very serious abuse with PTSD or just painful life experiences you assumed were not such a big deal. This is where I can help. I love to use my skills to help people who are wrestling with emotional pain and daily life struggles. I want you to see yourself and the world in a new way. To stop experiencing days that feel like a dumpster fire. To feel hopeful about your life. To feel safe.To accept your imperfections and like yourself anyhow. When we work together it probably won't be like other therapy you have tried. We will work on your timeline. We will also focus on what matters. I am trained in therapies that address your thinking and your emotions. I use several forms of Cognitive therapy, EMDR, and Ericksonian (non-directive) Hypnosis.

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.

Hello, my name is Laura. I’m a person-centered, trauma-informed therapist who values authenticity, curiosity, and the power of feeling truly seen. I take a holistic approach to therapy, recognizing the deep connection between mind, body, and spirit. My goal is to create a safe and supportive space where you can unpack life’s challenges, better understand yourself, and reconnect with the parts of you that deserve care, attention, and healing.

I am an outcome focused therapist who supports individuals struggling with anxiety, anger, emotional regulation, burnout, and grief. Many of my clients are used to holding everything together for others, including parents, caregivers, first responders, and high stress professionals, while feeling overwhelmed, emotionally reactive, or stuck in survival mode themselves. Together, we focus on understanding triggers, building practical coping skills, and learning how to respond instead of react so you can feel more in control, confident, and steady in daily life. I also give practical “homework” between sessions because real growth happens outside the therapy room too. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 10 years of experience, a certified grief counselor, and specialize in DBT skills, emotion regulation, women's issues, grief, and major life transitions. I accept Aetna, Geisinger, Capital BCBS, and several other major insurance plans in Pennsylvania, and self pay. Virtual sessions are available in early morning/evening for busy schedules.

I am an empathic, supportive therapist who utilizes therapeutic tools to empower my clients to lead more fulfilling lives.

Therapy requires a commitment of time and financial resources. I start out seeing my clients once per week. If you are unable to make the time commitment, I am likely not the best match for your needs. I am an LGBTQIA+ ally.

Remember--it’s your life, your journey … make the most of it!

Hi, My name is Sandy Bui, I am a Nationally Certified Counselor and a Licensed Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania with over 15 years of working in the mental health field. My medical background also allows me to have that extra understanding of the human body and mind. I have experience with helping clients with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, motivation, self-esteem, confidence, coping with life changes, career, and many more.

My roles have included case management, management, and professional counseling. The numerous professional opportunities I have experienced with various populations has allowed me to find a place to dedicate myself to a career of serving exceptional individuals and working with numerous health care providers in the community.

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. Are you struggling with relationship issues or coping with anxiety? Do you have ADHD, depression, or facing significant life stressors or changes? These are all areas I specialize in as a clinical therapist.

The best pitch for therapy is simple, “do you have bad feelings or uncomfortable thoughts that you want to talk to someone about?” My name is Ed Lessard, and that’s what I am best at. I talk to people about their most distressing and uncomfortable thoughts and feelings, listen actively, without judgment, and respond with empathy, advanced education in mental and public health, and evidenced based treatments for specific issues like depression, interpersonal conflict and trauma. Like many therapists, I started as a patient, no better or worse than the people who come to see me for help. I work collaboratively with my clients to help them identify, understand and cope with the problems they are facing and define their own versions of success and happiness.

I too, have been in your shoes after experiencing a traumatic birth that changed my life, and now I am committed to helping other women reclaim their lives. I specialize in working with women who want to find the joy in their lives again and manage symptoms of depression or anxiety. Together, we can help you find the joy in your life again.

We work together to make certain these stories are in alignment with the life they want to build for themselves.

I hope to partner with my clients as they find more security and self understanding within our work together.

I’ve been a somatic trauma therapist* for over 17 years. I believe healing can only happen interpersonally. I’ve worked mostly with the LGBTQ+ community, but straights are welcome. ;) You will likely laugh as much as you cry, I’m hella clear with boundaries, I encourage shared online meals, and I’ll typically remind you of what’s happening astrologically (from what I’ve gleaned from the experts). * a somatic what? Think talk therapy that doesn’t ignore your body. How so? -help release effects of systemic trauma -rewire neural pathways to create positive subconscious programming -release effects of pandemic isolation and retrain body/mind to access deeper forms of trust/intimacy -developing awareness and connection to your full authentic self

Hi, I’m Colette, a Licensed Professional Counselor. I know starting therapy can feel like a big step, and I’m glad you’re here. I provide a calm, supportive space where you can feel safe to share your story and begin making sense of what you’re going through. Grief work is at the heart of my practice.

Welcome to our space! In our time together we will address your concerns, as well as explore and highlight your personal strengths and attributes. I feel this is something we all neglect and these can be very empowering and key to working through our daily stressors. My style as a therapist is eclectic and energetic. Therapy can be a potent experience, but I am here to help accommodate the tears, toil, frustration, humor and other emotions that you cannot or may not wish to share with others. The world, our jobs, finances, and other obstacles are some of the many things that can zap our valuable mental and physical energy in a day. Burnout is more real now than ever before. Coming here is a way to recharge yourself so that you can be more present in the most important areas of your life and enjoy it in the process. We work together to develop skills and outlets in which to manage these stressors. You can become the most positive, healthy version of yourself. I welcome the pleasure of working with people from many different cultures and backgrounds, and I am an avid supporter of the LGBTQIA+ community. Since the beginning of the pandemic, I have been working 100 percent virtually. This direction in therapy has allowed me to interact with more people that are not within my geographical location. When a person is in an environment where they feel most comfortable, they are better able to express themselves. My source of empowerment comes from my husband and our enjoyment in caring for our animals. We have a good start on a boring zoo.. (dogs, cats, chickens, fish). They are my reason for working from home. For me, being outdoors and caring for animals is very therapeutic as well as rewarding.

Hi, I'm Angela, a licensed therapist in Pennsylvania who helps women feel like themselves again through the moments that shake your sense of self — anxiety, burnout, pregnancy and postpartum challenges, career transitions, midlife changes, and the empty nest phase. I work exclusively with adults who identify as women or with women's experiences. Many of my clients are exhausted from holding everything together while quietly wondering, 'is this all there is?' They've often spent so long prioritizing everyone else — or carrying relationships no one seems to be holding up alongside them — that they've lost touch with their own needs, desires, and sense of self. You deserve more than just coping — you deserve support in reconnecting with yourself and your life. Having faced my own struggles, I understand the courage it takes to show up for yourself. I support women in embracing their full selves, with all their strengths, scars, and stories, without judgment or pressure to "be fixed." My approach is warm, trauma-informed, strengths-based, and deeply practical — grounded in evidence-based tools and designed so you leave each session with real skills you can use. I'll help you build on what's already working, not just fix what isn't. Whether you're navigating early motherhood, a major life transition, or a midlife crossroads asking, 'who am I now?' this is a space where you don't have to perform, explain yourself, or have it together. You just have to show up. I'd be honored to support you in this next chapter of your life.

Hi I am Jack Cottom a licensed professional counselor. I have been practicing psychotherapy for the past 15 years. I identify as a Black American gay male of African descent which gives me a certain perspective and experience of the world. I have a lot of experience working with folks who share my gender, ethnic, and racial make up as well as experience working with folks from many different demographics. I am open to working with anyone who is vested in healing and working through personal issues. I believe counseling is hugely powerful because through the relationship you are able to gain some awareness about yourself, learn some skills, and implement those skills to live the life that you ultimately want to live. My goal in my practice is to assist you with addressing the 'thing' that has you stuck in a certain place whether is a way of thinking and/or behaving, trauma , or lack of knowledge and/or skill. Again, my goal is to get you up, moving, and operating at your best levels AND most importantly feeling better!

Hello! My name is Max Croteau and I have had the pleasure of being a licensed professional counselor for almost 10 years now. In this time, I have been able to mold my style of understanding, accepting while also challenging and motivational into a successful model of growth and change for those who choose to work with me. I truly am a believer that therapy can sometimes be a side-by-side process, or it can be a process where one guides and the other follows, but ultimately the choice is up to you. I don’t want you to live a life that I tell you to live. I want to help you find a life that is truly a genuine fit for yourself and one that you can see yourself living without even having to think about it. I’ve specialized in addiction, OCD, trauma therapy, family and couples counseling and various other topics in the world of mental health. One important factor that I have found is that each person has their own individual story and their journey will be just as individualized. No matter how similar, we are all different. A cookie cutter approach to the rest of your life is not something that you will get from me. I will truly meet you where you are and work with you every step of the way to achieve the success that you are looking for. I always guarantee every person I work with that therapy may not be easy, but in the end, it will be incredibly worthwhile. I’d love to start and/or continue that journey. Growth has no final destination, just the journey. It’s up to you what path you’d like to take.
