Hello! I have successfully practiced clinical social work for over 30 years and have enjoyed helping the many clients I have counseled during my career. You will find me to be caring, understanding, respectful, nonjudgmental, knowledgeable and attentive to your needs. I have experience as a therapist /counselor, case manager, clinical supervisor and mental health clinic director, working with adults, adolescents and children and families and have been effective in helping my clients consistently achieve positive change. My number one objective is to help you feel better and resolve any difficult issues you are coping with. My approach is goal oriented and problem solving, often using cognitive behavioral therapy strategies and motivational interviewing techniques designed to challenge any negative thoughts and improve and maintain your motivation to make the changes needed to resolve issues and problems you are facing. I graduated from The Hunter School of Social Work in 1990 with a Master's Degree in Social Work in New York City and I am currently a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the State of Pennsylvania. I'm here to help you and look forward to working with you!

It was never a question for me what I would do with my life nor was it surprising to my family and friends when I chose this professional path for myself. I have a warmth, compassion, and natural tendency to empathy that led me directly into the mental health profession. My name is Jessica and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Pennsylvania hoping to help you achieve the change you wish to see in yourself. Researching a therapist and a variety of counseling services in the area already shows me that you are willing to take accountability for your mental health and take the next step into a healthier version of you. Whether you are a teen or adult; I have had experience working with and around all populations as well as with a variety of diagnoses and struggles including depression, anxiety, ADHD, Mood Disorders, Bipolar, self-esteem, PTSD, grief and loss, behavioral problems, attachment issues, and IDD. Through my work in outpatient, residential, and community-based services I have strived to provide strengths based and person-centered psychotherapy for a complex array of diagnoses. My work has been intensive and has prepared me to gain a better understanding of how to individualize treatment based on the needs of the client. I have worked from a trauma focused perspective with many clients and have a strong background in trauma work, I think it is so important to recognize perspective and to empower clients by asking questions like “what happened to you?” as opposed to “what is wrong with you?”. I attained my Bachelor of Science in Psychology from East Stroudsburg University and almost immediately began work in my Master’s program. I completed my Master of Education in School Counseling from Kutztown University Licensure track so that I could continue in my pursuit to helping others in a multitude of settings Life is a series of choices. Researching therapy options and joining with a therapist is a choice. It is a positive choice that can only lead to growth and furthering your potential. I look forward to empowering you to be your own voice, to recognize what is possible, and to know the power that lies in the choices you make for yourself everyday.

Life is a beautiful mess. Sometimes everything seems to be going our way. And other times, it can leave us feeling overwhelmed, confused, and unbalanced. My name is Beth and I would like to offer guidance and support as you navigate those ups and downs. Let me start by telling you a little bit about myself. I have worked in the mental health field since 1998. First, with my bachelors degree and later doing clinical work as I earned my master's degree. I believe taking care of our mental health should be as accepted and routine as taking care of our physical health. Throughout my career I have had the opportunity to practice in a variety of settings and populations. I have worked with children in school settings, adolescents in psychiatric hospitalization, families in their homes and communities, and couples and adults through outpatient services. My professional style has evolved from these experiences. I rely on a common sense approach. Counseling is casual and conversational. We will work as a team; identifying strengths, setting goals, and overcoming barriers. Asking for help can be difficult. Trusting someone with your innermost thoughts may feel intimidating. Thank you for taking this first step. I look forward to meeting you.

Additionally, in 2019 I completed a doctorate through Penn State University with a dissertation focused on social work education.

And community members. I have experience addressing problems related to disorders such as depression, anxiety, divorce and marital issues, Trauma and abuse, as well as issues surrounding life changes and events. I use evidenced-based approach of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help with emotional regulation and distress tolerance, andto identify and recognize the client’s thoughts which contribute to their behaviors and feelings. The client can then identify distorted beliefs and thoughts, challenge them and create more balanced thoughts which improves the choices they make, and how they feel about themselves and the environment. In conjunction with focusing on thoughts, behavior modification challenges clients to makes a conscious effort to change negative behaviors to improve their feelings and thoughts. Other approaches I may use include strengths based approach, narrative therapy, and solution-focused therapy.
