Therapists in Elco, PA

You can feel better. Your life can become happier, your relationships more enjoyable. You can begin to feel a purpose in the reality of this challenging world. I have seen in 30 years of experience people begin to love themselves, and experience the joy of loving others. One of my goals was to work with the Life Span--and I have seen people from 2 to 96! Maybe you feel unlovable and think no one really understands you. I can listen without judgment. You can tell me your experiences and your feelings. Maybe you feel disappointed or abandoned in life or confused about your direction. Someone may have hurt you. Maybe you are having family problems. You may feel anxious or depressed. Teaching simple and practical tools can help. Taking the time to just talk about your experiences and feelings is so important. Everyone needs to be heard with empathy and to feel that their lives and struggles are heard. There is no problem too big or too small. I will individually tailor the therapy to meet your needs and together we will look at finding the happiness and purpose in your life you desire. It will be my privilege to companion you.

I became a Chemical Dependency Counselor in 1995 and received my MSW in Clinical Social Work from Ohio State in 2002. I have been a Licensed Independent Social Worker since 2005. I have worked mostly with adults and some teenagers dealing primarily with depression, anxiety, and mood disorders. I have a holistic perspective of mental wellness and view counseling and other healthy life choices as a way to achieve personal empowerment and actualization. This includes family of origin work and working to let go of ingrained thinking and behaviors that hold a person back from achieving the quality of life they want and deserve. I am trauma-informed and comfortable working with members of the LGBT community. I also have experience working with grief and loss issues. My primary modalities are Cognitive-Behavioral, Solutions Focused, and Acceptance Commitment Therapy. Counseling is a client-driven process and is about the issues and concerns the client wants to address and work on.

I have been a Licensed Professional Counselor for 10 years mostly in private practice, located in a suburb of Philadelphia.

As an accredited addictions specialist, I have an extensive knowledge of 12 step programs and other resources of support. In simple terms, I enjoy helping people get through difficult times of change. Person centered listening is where I start so that I may have a good understanding of your perspective and insight. Borrowing evidence-based techniques from mindfulness and cognitive behavioral theories, we have the tools to reduce the impact when feeling symptoms of trauma, panic, anxiety, depression and losses of job, income, partner, parents, or children. My clients have successfully crafted the skills to finally live what they define to be a more peaceful, positive, and meaningful life.

I am licensed in Pennsylvania with 8 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, trauma and abuse, & motivation, self esteem, and confidence. I do consider myself a person-centered therapist which means I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you and that you also have the answers you need to accomplish your needs and wants, I will help you find them, access them, and appropriate ways of implementing them. I also use CBT as a means of accomplishing needs and wants as I do believe that most problems are thinking problems, which need to be seen from a different perspective. I also utilize motivational interviewing to help those seeking the reasons they want to change and how to use this process to achieve these needs and wants. For those who struggle with purpose, death, and loss I will use existentialism to help those work through those struggles.

My name is John and I am a licensed professional counselor. I have 20 years of professional work experience. Over that time I have developed skills to help clients with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, finding motivation, exploring self-worth, recovering from addiction and combating depression. My methods include Motivational Interviewing, psychodynamics, and person-centered therapy. I often utilize cognitive therapies, especially in their mindfulness-based forms, like ACT and DBT. But everything from simple conversation to behavioral strategies might be used, as long as the methods are suitable to your needs. Across these last two decades, I have learned that people are fascinatingly different from one another. Yet, almost any one of us can thrive in an atmosphere of mutual respect. Compassionate interaction can result in transformative moments, and to me, those moments are some of the best things in life. You are worth knowing and worth understanding, and the fact that you want to grow has me interested in you already. I am honored to be part of the change you want to make.
