Darby’s all-volunteer fire department is the fifth oldest in the country. Putting out the fires in your life can seem like a never-ending task. You manage to get through a difficult work situation, but the next problem is waiting for you. Disagreements at home are followed by personal losses.

You need a break from your troubles, but you no longer know how to relax and take pleasure in life. Even worse, you don’t know how to keep struggling when it seems you’re making no progress at all. Talk to a counselor in the Darby area for help to find relief and support.

I am a social worker in Florida with 6 years experience. I have worked with crisis and suicide prevention for many years. My specialties include substance abuse counseling, and grief and loss counseling. I find that I am able to understand my clients in ways that others cannot. With a technique that incorporates finding one's own Inner Strength and uncovering things that they do not know about themselves. It is important to realize the positive qualities of not only yourself but your life in general and use that as the basis to better yourself. It is time to make the decision to be better.

Greetings! My name is Dr. Lucy Parker-Barnes. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Illinois. I have provided clinical care for over 11 years. I find this career very personally and professionally meaningful! I am also very passionate to help my clients find meaning in their lives, healing in their struggles, and confidence in themselves! Specifically, I work from an Existential, Client-Centered Approach. One of the foundational concepts that guides my work includes that "the best counseling happens, not just in, but outside of sessions." In other words, I hope to help provide my clients with metaphorical tools and the confidence to believe in themselves to tackle their issues. I have worked with many clients including clients with depression, anxiety, legal issues, relationship problems, experiencing trauma and grief, and clients who identify in the LGBTQIA+ population. I specifically facilitated group counseling for two years for clients who identified as transgender and experienced oppression in the Chicagoland area. I have worked in telehealth counseling for about three years, as well. If you are in need of genuine support, clinical competence, and a passionate counselor, please know I am happy to help. Sincerely, Dr. Parker-Barnes
