Therapists in Centralia, PA

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Pennsylvania with over 20 years experience providing counseling across a variety of professional settings with a diverse clientele. A well-practiced and experienced professional, I am comfortable assisting with a broad spectrum of clinical issues. Areas I am exceptionally well-versed in include: development and adjustment issues over the lifespan, career challenges and unexpected life changes, developing a stable and positive sense of identity and self-esteem, and finding a deeper meaning and sense of purpose in one’s life struggles. Key issues include anxiety, depression, parenting issues, ADHD, ODD, developmental issues and/or special needs, supporting adults with autism, PTSD, sexual abuse or trauma issues, and helping adults recover from a traumatic or life-altering event such as a brain injury. As the parent of child with autism, there is a special place in my heart for supporting individuals on the autism spectrum, their caregivers and their loved ones. I am adept in helping individuals develop skills in a variety of areas including setting and achieving life-changing goals, bettering themselves in key life areas such as relationship skills, parenting skills and support, time management and organizational skills, problem-solving skills, conflict resolution skills, executive functioning, and developing a daily routine that reflects their individual goals for their life. My counseling style is warm, empowering, and collaborative. My approach combines humanistic and cognitive therapies and employs motivational interviewing and reality therapy to help you develop a clear vision of the life you want for yourself, determine the steps necessary to achieve that life, and provides coaching as you work towards achieving your goals. I look forward to joining alongside you on your life journey.

Hello! I am a licensed professional counselor in Pennsylvania with over 20 years of experience. I have worked with adults over a wide spectrum of issues and life problems and look forward to assisting you in developing goals for your overall success. Much of my experience includes work in preventing or combatting stress, especially career or job-related issues, anxiety, relationship issues, addictions disorders and co-dependency, grief counseling, critical incident debriefing, and working to resolve issues surrounding physical disabilities or trauma. In the past three years much of my work has included helping others deal with or prevent the negative impact of covid-19. I tend to work in a solution-focused framework, helping remove immediate obstacles to allow further work on underlying or longterm issues. I also utilize Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy, especially in working through addictions-based problems, to assist in dissolving irrational beliefs that may be holding a client back from fulfillment of goals and dreams. The atmosphere of sessions is one of acceptance and not of judgment for what may have brought a person to talk with me, or what has come before. It takes courage to realize there is a problem requiring assistance and also to believe that the help is available. By tackling that step you have begun your journey. I would be honored to assist you along the way.

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.
