William Dougherty
I have always seemed to be in a helping position. Before graduating high school I started work at a large veterinarian hospital/boarding kennel in Blue Bell, PA as an animal health technician and then the hospital administrator, where I stayed for over 15 years. I decided to return to school to pursue a degree in psychology and have been in the mental health field since 1998, working for such organizations as Special Equestrians as a side aid volunteer assisting people with physical and/or mental health disabilities and Lenape Valley Foundation as both a house advisor and a Partial Hospital Program group therapist for people with severe and persistent mental illness. I also worked for Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia for their Narcotic Addict Rehabilitation Program where I was a counselor for people addicted to heroin. I recently worked for Catholic Charities in NJ in the roles of therapist for the Adolescent Intensive Outpatient Program working with kids diagnosed with substance abuse or dependence, as well as a clinical supervisor for the Comprehensive Family Treatment of Addictions Program (CFTA). This led to the position of Program Director for CFTA, the Therapeutic After-School Program (a therapeutic group for kids ages 8-12) and an In-home therapy/case management program, while also carrying a small direct-service caseload at my private practice. Finally, after taking the position of Service Area Director, with responsibility for 13 substance abuse, mental health and social service programs, I realized that I was moving further and further away from my original ambition of providing one to one service to clients. This realization led to my decision to get back into direct service. The ability to provide a safe environment for people to share their feelings, thoughts, and experiences is essential to effective counseling. Studies have shown no one therapeutic modality utilized by therapists is superior to another; rather, clinicians themselves ultimately determine whether treatment will prove effective. It’s not about the model being used; it’s the relationship between the counselor and client. This principle guides my work, in that I strive to provide a client-centered, strength-based counseling setting to individuals, couples and adolescents for issues related to addiction, anxiety, career or relationships. I look to my clients to be the experts of themselves, which encourages them to guide the therapy where it needs to go. What I offer is a space to gain insight in order for that insight to become the catalyst for change. I believe that once a person sees their truth, they have no choice but to accept that truth…though we often do our best not to. Each of us develops psychological schemas that teach us how to interact with people and the world. When we grow accustomed to a certain pattern of behavior, however, we look to repeat it, even after it’s outlived its usefulness. Addiction, for instance, is a maladaptive coping skill that worked at one time but does no longer. With a background in English literature, I bring a decidedly post-modern perspective to my therapeutic approach. One of the concepts I utilize is Narrative Therapy, which encourages and compassionately challenges clients to be mindful of the story they’re telling to better utilize their strengths. This theory acknowledges the power of language, in that not only does the language we use reflect how we feel, it also affects how we feel. Therefore, the words we choose to use can help to manifest the changes we hope to bring about. The idea is to encourage the use of more positive words as opposed to negative words while telling our life story. I have found this approach to be remarkably effective in helping clients confront the challenges of their lives in order to bring about lasting and meaningful change. Other approaches and techniques I draw from include Humanistic Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, Motivational Enhancement Therapy (with a strong working knowledge of Motivational Interviewing), Trauma Informed Therapy, and Systems Theory. I find it satisfying to be part of helping people discover who they can be and realize that perhaps they’re more than who they thought they were. Ultimately, if each of us can achieve balance and make our own little corner of the world a little bit more satisfying and a little safer, we help to create a better reality for all of us.

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.

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 Parryville, 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.
Parryville 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.
