"At any given moment you have the power to say: This is not how the story is going to end". My experience is in counseling individuals with depression and anxiety disorders while developing a positive, empathetic, non- judgmental and trusting therapeutic relationship. I have a background in working with youth and young adults with learning disabilities, ADHD, depression, and autism spectrum disorders. My theoretical approach is based on cognitive behavioral therapy, a talking therapy. The therapy aims to solve problems concerning dysfunctional emotions, behaviors and cognitions through a goal-oriented, systematic procedure in the present. The goal is to modify one's thoughts, beliefs, and perceptions, and to change one's usual pattern of behavior. I also do self esteem building, goal setting, learning positive self talk, solution focused therapy, problem solving, and building confidence and self worth. I also do executive coaching and career counseling which involves working with a client to reach a specific goal in their professional development. The specific areas of coaching may include career transition, interpersonal and professional communication, performance management, organizational effectiveness, managing career and personal changes, enhancing strategic thinking, and dealing effectively with conflict. I have experience in working with couples with relationship and marital difficulties. The focus of this therapy is building positive communication, identifying problem areas in the communication process, identifying emotional needs in a relationship, setting relationship goals, and learning to problem solve and compromise in order to reach resolutions in arguments. I have a Master's Degree in Rehabilitation Counseling from the University of Pittsburgh and 14 years in the field counseling individuals. I love what I do and I feel that therapy can be such a positive investment. I look forward to working with you!

My philosophy is that therapy is more than just giving you a space to talk; therapy is about getting you results. If you are working through symptoms of depression, lack of motivation, anxiety or self-esteem issues we'll work on getting a good understanding of it, tools to manage it and perspectives to address it. Whether you've been feeling down or simply trying to figure yourself out, progress and relief are your ultimate goal and we're going to work on that together. My focus is on helping you figure out your next step, learn the next tool, or develop the new insight that will help you get to where you’d like to be. I collaborate with you to make sure your goals are being met. You and I will check in with each other often to make sure we are moving in the direction you'd like! I take a Client-Centered approach and utilize the latest advancements in mental health care to treat clients as individuals with unique needs. What that means is that I will meet you where you're at by prompting you with exploratory questions and then also provide you with practical feedback/interventions/techniques to help you facilitate the changes you're looking to make. Bettering yourself can start today!

Hello! My name is Courtney. I have been a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) for 4 years but have been working in the field since 2013. I have my Bachelor's in Psychology and Master's in Forensic Psychology. I have years of experience working with clients experiencing a wide range of diagnoses, including but not limited to, Anxiety, Depression, PTSD, Bipolar Disorder, and Psychosis, My style of counseling covers a wide range of modalities, including but not limited to, Person-Centered, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Strength-Based ,and Psychoanalytic. I believe treatment is and should be individualized, and therefore does not always fit perfectly with one form of treatment or another. I have a person-centered approach giving my clients the opportunity to guide the direction of their sessions. I like to begin my sessions with first gathering information about my client, why they have decided to reach out for counseling and what they hope to gain from treatment. Through the first couple of sessions, building rapport and understanding overall treatment goals will determine which treatment approach will be most appropriate.

Dr. Victor Manocchio
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (PA) with more than has more than 25 years of experience as a Mental Health Therapist. I hold a Doctorate of Social Work, which was completed in October 2019. I treat children, adults, and families - specializing in trauma, anxiety, autism, and substance abuse from a strengths perspective. I have over 200 hours of specialized training in treating trauma and abuse, with completed certifications in autism, as well as substance abuse. I have helped many patients with many concerns over the past 25 years. I treat from a holistic approach - body, mind, and spirit. Research states that treatment should include physical, mental, emotional, culture, religion, spirituality, and everything that makes you who you are. "Holistic" has become somewhat of a buzzword. Let me describe what holistic means to me. It means that counseling will not fix a thyroid problem. Holistic means that a problem in one area of your life will affect every area of your life. For example, let's talk about depression. Sometimes, people do not have depression. Instead, they might need to work at forgiving themselves or someone else; or maybe they just need hope that life will get better. Alternatively, they might have an underlying medical condition. Sometimes, we just need help to grieve the loss of a dearly loved person or a beloved animal. I help people to find healthy coping skills, people to trust, and ways to live life to the fullest. Be at Peace, Dr. Vic (he/ him) Dr. Victor John Manocchio, II, DSW, LCSW License PA- CW014668; NY – 090111 NPI 1487828554

An experienced clinician can target various symptoms, experiences, and personalities to help you feel your best and put you on the path to healing. Unlike advice from a friend, family, or non-professional, a mental health therapist has an understanding of various disorders like ADHD and depression with many hours of experience in treating adults in their practice. For this reason, seeing an evidence based licensed clinician in Manns Choice, Pennsylvania can be worth it. Over 41 million adults in the US attend therapy services each year, showing it's a popular option and is proven to be effective.
