Hello and welcome! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Pennsylvania and a National Certified Counselor (NCC). I am also a 14 year Air Force veteran. I started my adult life in Florida and have settled here in Pennsylvania after living in several states as well as a couple of years in South Korea. I have worked for the past 13 years on an inpatient psychiatric unit and have a vast experience with depression and anxiety and how they affect one's well being and self confidence. Prior to that I worked with an agency that worked closely Children and Youth Services and have gained much experience in working with family issues, parenting concerns, and communication challenges. I have also worked with adults with developmental disabilities and enjoy exploring what you can do as opposed to what you can't do. I have experience using Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) to help a person better understand the relationship between thoughts, emotions, and behavior as well as the power of automatic thoughts. I can help you with issues of self esteem and confidence as well as helping you learn how to problem solve and make decisions more effectively. I have experience using Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) which provides a person with concrete tools to help deal with interpersonal relationships and as well as helping to develop tolerance for distressful situations. I can help you learn how to say no to unwanted requests and develop healthy boundaries for yourself as well as learning the power of being able to realize what you can and cannot change and deal with the consequences. I am a trauma informed therapist and understand the need for a specialized approach to traumatic events and memories and so will not bring up or focus on those events in our interactions. I will work with you on relaxation techniques to help you get past the memories and focus on the moment. I am a military veteran and understand how hard it is to open up about some events and issues. And I understand how difficult it is for those around you who don't understand. I can be there for you. I look forward to working with you as you face the crossroads in your life. I will be there for you. You are not alone.

9 years of experience offering psychology treatment
My name is Elena Gregorio and I am a licensed clinical social worker in the state of Pennsylvania. I got my master’s degree in social work from West Chester University in 2012 and have been working with individuals and groups ever since, focusing on mental health and/or substance abuse issues. This was a second career for me; I started out with a music degree and teaching elementary schoolers. But as happens to most people, life threw some curve balls and it was time for a change. Perhaps you’re at a curve ball stage yourself and you have come here looking for some support. I would welcome the opportunity to hear your story and see if we are a good fit to set some goals together and start working toward the type of positive changes you would like to see in your life. I am a patient, compassionate, and nonjudgmental person in all of my interactions. I believe in the importance of dignity for all, regardless of background or identity. My style in therapy can be an eclectic one, as one approach does not necessarily fit everyone. I tend to draw from cognitive behavioral, narrative, and mindfulness-based therapies at first and then see if more experiential or varied approaches might work best for you. But we can discuss all of that in more detail, as well as any other questions you may have, as we get to know each other. Therapy does not have to be a scary, intimidating thing to get into! I look forward to hearing more from you.

Welcome! It takes a lot of courage and strength to seek therapy , you should feel proud of yourself for taking the first step in reaching out. My name is Erica Holtz, M.A., LMFT and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Clinical Supervisor. I also have a Certificate in Child Sexual Abuse Treatment from Widener University. I graduated from La Salle University in 2007 after a year long internship at a family therapy agency in Philadelphia, where I continue to assist in training other therapists and interns. I also am an AAMFT Approved Supervisor, which means the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy required me to do an extensive training program to be able to supervise therapists who want to be licensed to practice marriage and family therapy. My therapeutic approach is based in Systems Theory, which is the basis for couples and family therapy. Systems theory differs from purely individual therapy models in that all affected parties are included in therapy, whether they are present in the sessions or not. This means there is a focus on the family relationships you had as a child and how they have affected current relationship issues. It focuses on patterns of behavior between people, and what is happening between people that maintains the problems. The first choice is to Include all parties affected in the problem (s) because it helps enhance the quality of relationships and create positive lasting changes often at a more rapid pace. However, I have done systemic work with individuals with great progress. My goal is to help individuals, families and couples who are struggling with painful emotions, distressing relationship problems and who feel “stuck”, confused or frustrated with their current life situation. I specialize in couples therapy, working with various types of families and working with individuals with trauma histories. I also work well with families who have a member with Autism. My therapeutic style is adaptable as well as empathetic . I often use humor and authenticity in my approach with clients, which allows the therapeutic relationship to grow and evolve by creating emotional safety from a "real" person. I have also been a client before, so I know what it is like to enter the therapy room feeling anxious, unsure, and vulnerable. I look forward to working with you and creating lasting change and growth!

Hello! Navigating the complexities of life can be challenging, but with the right guidance and support, you can embark on a transformative journey of self-discovery and personal growth. As a licensed counselor with six years of hands-on experience, I specialize in helping individuals understand themselves on deeper levels through psychoeducation, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), and DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy). Through psychoeducation, I aim to empower my clients by providing insightful knowledge about their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Understanding the mechanisms of our mind allows us to identify patterns that may be holding us back from living fulfilling lives. Our sessions will unravel the intricacies of mental health, equipping you with the tools to take charge of your emotional well-being. As someone trained in EMDR—a powerful therapeutic technique designed to alleviate distress associated with traumatic memories—I’ll guide you through your experiences, fostering a path to healing that promotes resilience and self-acceptance. This method is particularly effective in addressing trauma, helping you process past experiences in a way that diminishes their negative impact on your present. In addition to EMDR, my certification in DBT allows me to teach you skills essential for emotion regulation, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness. This relational approach nurtures healthy coping mechanisms while cultivating profound self-acceptance—an essential component in promoting personal growth. Understanding yourself is akin to planting seeds in the garden of your mind. Each new insight allows for personal growth and self-improvement to flourish. Through our collaborative exploration, you'll unveil new perspectives about yourself and your capabilities, paving the way for achieving both emotional and psychological well-being. In the coming weeks and months, you’ll experience a journey that not only embraces your past but also helps create a brighter future—an opportunity to grow into the individual you aspire to be. Through the blend of psychoeducation and evidence-based practices like EMDR and DBT, we’ll work together to break free from self-limiting beliefs, celebrate your strengths, and foster a holistic view of your potential. Life’s path is not just about survival—we are meant to thrive. Together, let’s embark on this empowering adventure of understanding and learning, one step at a time. You deserve to blossom into your best self and navigate life with unwavering confidence and zest. Your journey toward enduring change and fulfillment starts today! I will do my utmost to ensure a response in a timely manner. I have "office hours" for Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday (9-5:30). If you reach out during one of the off days, please be assured that I will respond within 24 hours. If you feel that the content of your message is an emergency, please do not hesitate to contact 9-8-8 or your local emergency room, and we can touch base when the crisis has passed.

How does the cost of in-person counseling with a therapist compare to the cost of BetterHelp with a licensed Duboistown therapist?
The average price of an in-person therapy session in the US with most therapists is $100 to $200 per hour. These prices may be higher in Duboistown due to a higher cost of living, and a limited number of therapists taking new clients. The price also depends on the type of provider you are looking for.

- Counseling with a psychiatrist: $150-$500
- Counseling with therapists: $100-300
- Therapy with a clinician: $100

How do I know if online counseling is right for my family in Duboistown?
One of the potentially rewarding aspects of working with a therapist is the validation and active listening they can provide.

Is mental health care and therapy with a therapist worth it?
Therapy with a licensed counselor is effective and has the power to change individuals' lives. Each client is at a different stage of their emotional healing journey in life, as each human can be unique in their personality, expression, skills, and goals. An experienced clinician can target various symptoms, experiences, and personalities to help you feel your best and put you on the path to healing. Unlike advice from a friend, family, or non-professional, a mental health therapist has an understanding of various disorders like ADHD and depression with many hours of experience in treating adults in their practice. For this reason, seeing an evidence based licensed clinician in Duboistown, Pennsylvania can be worth it. Over 41 million adults in the US attend therapy services each year, showing it's a popular option and is proven to be effective.
Duboistown has many clinicians who practice person or client-centered individual therapy in-person and through online sessions to assist clients in their healing journey. If you opt into online therapy, you might also be able to meet with providers all over the United States and change easily at any time. Many people struggling with anxiety and depression, substance abuse, body image issues, and more find therapists that are a good fit for them, feel supported, and gain further insight into their lives through internet-based therapy.
Do therapists judge you in therapy sessions during telehealth appointments?
The boundaries between you and a therapist are in place to help you and them regarding ethical concerns. Mental health professionals are held by ethical standards through the American Psychological Association (APA) and are not allowed to judge or harm their clients. If you are concerned about sharing details about yourself, feel free to withhold personal information. Their job in the therapeutic relationship is to create a safe place, help you gain a deeper understanding of your mental health, and support you. You might consider changing counselors if you don't feel safe or respected.
