Therapists in Pennsylvania

Hi! My name is Lauren. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker/Psychotherapist. At times, life can feel overwhelming, leaving you stressed, uncertain, or disconnected without fully understanding why. You may not even be aware of the deeper patterns in your thoughts, behaviors, or ways of coping that contribute to these feelings. Therapy can provide the space to explore these experiences, uncover what may be holding you back, and help you find a clearer, more peaceful path forward. Together, we’ll work to identify new perspectives and strategies that allow you to feel more aligned with your true self, empowering you to live a life that is more balanced, fulfilling, and authentic. I offer a warm, direct, and interactive approach to therapy, supporting adults through various challenges, including: Adult Children of Addicts, long-distance relationships, grief and loss, life transitions, existential crises, the emotional impacts of chronic illness, and immigration and acculturation. It takes courage to seek support from a therapist to begin or continue addressing the challenges that keep you from living a happier life. Congratulations on achieving the first step of your journey to health. I look forward to working with you! :)

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.
