Therapists in Pennsylvania

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker licensed in both PA and NJ. I have been in private practice since 2001. I work with ages 15 years and older and I LOVE my career. I work with teens and young adults who are transitioning and have seen these clients through the entire process of not being accepted by peers and, very sadly family, to life incredible full lives. I have a past client's wedding to go to in May :) I get to witness my clients come to live the lives they've always wanted and I'm a small part of that. I absolutely love my job.

My professional focal points include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy with a person-centered approach. My therapy style is one that assists clients in becoming their own agents of change. I use a down-to-earth humanistic approach, which focuses on creating a safe and supportive environment for authentic self-expression. I blend these approaches to fit the individual needs of the client. I work from the “here and now” perspective to assist clients with building coping strategies and engaging in mindfulness activities to alleviate their concerns that motivated them to come to therapy.

Hi, My name is Vanessa, and I am a licensed professional counselor in Pennsylvania. I believe in treating clients as co-creators in their therapeutic process. I strive to create an affirming, non-judgemental, and empathetic environment for my clients to express themselves authentically. The therapeutic process is one in which I will utilize cognitive restructuring, mindfulness, and self-compassion practices to facilitate processing, feeling, and connecting to oneself and emotions. My preferred populations are adolescents 14-18, transitional adults 19-25, and adults. I specialize in Autism Spectrum, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, trauma-related disorders,&anxiety disorders, I provide in-depth assessments, track progress, and modify when necessary. I have had extensive cultural training and find fulfillment in providing my clients with an open, accepting, and encouraging environment. My passion is to see others succeed, which makes counseling something I enjoy doing. If you have read this far, I want to work with you. I intend that you come to a space where you are seen in a way that is contrary to what you have experienced. Reach out!

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 am an autistic therapist, which is important to mention as my communication style may differ from what you are accustomed to. I am very direct and honest, and my guidance is grounded in research and the lived experiences of other clients. My therapeutic approach is centered on helping you define your current purpose. I employ a client-centered approach, cognitive behavioral techniques, and existentialism to ensure you feel heard, seen, and valued. Together, we will embark on a journey of self-discovery and personal growth. I am pleased that you are here, and I look forward to working with you. I began my education in research psychology before entering counseling. Now, I am a Community Counselor. I have spent my time as a therapist side by side with people in their homes, in their schools, at their workplace, and out in the community. I have worked with people on the Autism Spectrum, with ADHD, depression, mood disorders, and end of life issues. My approach to helping has always been to help you define your current purpose. I utilize a client-centered approach, cognitive behavioralism, and existentialism. I want you to feel heard, seen, and feel that you are important. We will work together to help you on a journey to discover yourself. I am glad you are here and I look forward to working with you.

Hi there, and welcome. Counseling provides a supportive, non-judgmental, safe atmosphere in which to process your concerns and help you learn ways to feel and do better. I'm so glad you are taking this step to invest in yourself and your well-being! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania and have been working in the counseling field since 2015, initially with children and families in a community-based setting, and presently with adults in individual therapy.

Hi, I'm Amanda, and I'm glad you're here! You have likely stumbled upon my profile because you or someone you love is in need of support to reflect and develop a better understanding of emotional needs and how to meet them, both internally and within relationships.

I believe in welcoming all parts of each client to session for a whole person approach.  I work to create a safe and judgment-free environment through authentic connection, humor, and a focus on client strengths.

My name is Amber Phillips. I am a dedicated therapist with a strong belief in the importance of empowering my clients to make autonomous decisions. I view my role as that of a guide, helping my clients to bridge the gap between their every day thoughts and actions. Ultimately, leading you to healthier, more effective behavior and overall communication with others. With a reserved, curious, and passive demeanor, I do my best to create a safe and non-judgmental space for my clients to explore your thoughts and emotions. I firmly believe in the power of leading clients to your own answers, rather than providing solutions for you. You know your life better than anyone else! I am committed to fostering an environment where you feel empowered to take control of your own life, and make decisions that are best for your overall well-being.

Hello! I appreciate that you’re taking this step toward finding a therapist you feel will be a good fit for you. I am a licensed clinical social worker with 13 years of experience. For most of this time I have worked with people around issues of depression, anxiety, PTSD, grief, and relationship/family issues. I am also passionate about working with LGBTQ folks around issues of coming out and self-acceptance. I know that the decision to look for a therapist isn’t always an easy one but, by doing so, you are taking an important first step toward creating change for yourself! I take a down-to-earth, supportive, conversational approach to therapy. I engage in discussion and don’t hesitate to share my own life experience when appropriate. I find that a more personal approach helps strengthen the relationship between me and the people I meet with which, in turn, will help you feel more comfortable being open in sessions. I take this approach because therapy is most successful when a person feels like their therapist understands them and when there is some level of connection. I focus on ensuring you will feel both seen and heard starting with our first session. You will be approached by me with curiosity, interest, and care at all times. At the start of your sessions with me I will ask how you’d like to start that day’s conversation and, if you’re not sure, will support you in discovering what might be important for you to talk about in the moment. I invite you to schedule a first session to see if I am a good fit for what you’re looking for in therapy!

Counseling is a space where you can explore, process, heal and grow. By being vulnerable we can allow ourselves the space to reflect on who we are now and where we have come from. I believe that we deserve a space where we can feel safe, comfortable and free from judgement. In this space, we can take out some of the boxes that are stored away and discover how we can let go of what no longer serves us while creating new ways of being and relating to ourselves, others, and the world around us .

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I hold licenses in Pennsylvania and New Jersey and specialty certification as a Certified Advanced Drug & Alcohol Counselor and a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. I am a firm believer in everything that happens creates the person. I am a whole life counselor and work with people to explore what it would take to move past the difficult times in life. I take the time to get to know my clients and have many clients who have been with me for years. That doesn't mean someone will see me every week for the rest of their life. It means client know I am available when they have need. I do have clients who have seen me weekly for years not because they are dependent on me but because they have found benefit in processing their life regularly. I have had a successful personal practice for years and can offer clients the space and reverence to unpack the most unpleasant things to reorder them in a way they no longer can cause harm as they once did. There is no perfect childhood and it is likely families do the best they can and it may not have filled the needs of their child. I am happy to take as much time as needed to work through the problem as you understand it.

Are you experiencing anxiety, depression or life stress? Feeling overwhelmed? Perhaps you and your partner are at a communication impasse? If you’re ready to explore these parts of yourself and interrupt patterns that no longer serve, I can help with that. Therapy is a collaborative process which allows us to look at areas in your life that cause distress, and identify ways to adjust your thoughts and behaviors to create positive change. I provide therapy in a safe, nonjudgmental environment where you may feel comfortable expressing yourself openly and authentically. I work with individuals and couples/partners.
