Therapists in Carbondale, PA

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.

My name is Nicole and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Pennsylvania. I hold a Masters of Education (M. Ed) in Counseling, and I have been practicing for about a decade now as an LPC for the state of Pennsylvania. My main focus is applying CBT (Cognitive behavioral) therapy to help challenge any irrational thinking and implement more positive thinking strategies in one's life, along with applying self-care into one's life. I also have experience working within corrections (incarcerations) and have worked with individuals who are struggling with acclimating back into society after this. I have also worked with clients that have Drug & Alcohol backgrounds. I have experience with couples and relationships and enjoy working with family systems theory. I also have an extreme interest in neuroscience and the brain, and always love learning new material and attending trainings on the brain. My other clinical modalities that I enjoy practicing are as followed; Solution Focused Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Narrative Therapy, trauma-informed care, Mindfulness-Based Therapy, TANT (trauma- art narrative therapy), couples/family therapy, and Grief counseling. I have also taught as a professor of Psychology and enjoy educating students and clients on the constant changing discipline of Psychology/Mental Health. My goal with clients is to help set future goals, apply positive thinking strategies, implement coping skills, implement self-care/self-love, and guide clients to be the best version of themselves. In my sessions, I do believe it is important to understand all aspects of life; physically, spiritually, emotionally , and mentally. Your mental health is wealth!

I am a Clinical Social Worker with over 25 years of post masters level experience and licensed in Pennsylvania. My earliest trainings began at a university affiliated psychiatric research institute with focus on therapies for substance dependence and mood disorders. Following this, I focused on family therapy interventions, working with highly conflicted couples and helping persons using aggression and violence in relationships. I am well trained and experienced in both individual and group psychotherapies including psychodynamic, cognitive based, dialectical and relaxation-meditative approaches to increase mindfulness. I have lived and worked in rural, urban and island communities. I have experience working with people across cultures and value the cultural experience of people in shaping their lives. I am experienced in working with active duty personnel and military veterans. My current practice is focused on the treatment of problems of mood and anxiety, post traumatic stress, post-acute recovery from substance dependence, persons with histories of family disruption and codependency, and highly conflicted relationships with and without intimate partner violence. My approach is person-centered and non-judgmental. I believe strongly in a client's ability to find solutions to the difficult issues in life, the importance of individual freedom of choice in seeking out those solutions, and personal accountability in managing the results of those choices. My style is collaborative. We will work together to identify your goals, explore the choices that will move you toward these goals and develop the knowledge and skill necessary for your success. I believe that the discomforts and difficulties we encounter are only part of the rich fabric of life and that it is through the resolution of these that we learn to manage our lives. And so, the life difficulties that you bring to our work together will contain the unique gateways to a more fulfilling and rewarding life for you.

My name is Dr. Kenneth Martz. I graduated with a Bachelors and Masters in Psychology from Loyola College, and Doctorate in Clinical Psychology from Argosy University in Virginia. I use solution-focused therapy, client-centered, cognitive therapy, and motivational interviewing, as well as my experience in a range of supportive approaches such as breathing, meditation, and related tools. I have experience working with individuals struggling with negative self-talk, low self-esteem, mood instability, addictions, challenging irrational beliefs, anxiety, stress, and more so that we can reclaim our hope and confidence in ourselves for a brighter tomorrow. While I have a range of experiences, some of my best work is in executive coaching, based on my years of experience in clinical supervision and leadership at multiple organizations of varied sizes. With personal issues, I am highly effective in working with men with anxiety, panic, and related issues such as intimacy, addiction, and establishing personal success.
