Dubbed a melting pot in the mountains, Shenandoah, Pennsylvania was once a safe haven for immigrants from over 20 different countries. The borough was also a coal mining hub and the stomping ground of the Molly Maguires, a 19 th -century Irish secret society whose members used violence and torture to get their way. Eventually, many of the murdering Mollies were tried and convicted of their crimes but the destruction they left behind haunted families for generations.
This is true of many of our pasts, which we struggle to let go of day in and day out. Fortunately, there are qualified, professional therapists in the Shenandoah area that can help you overcome any difficulty or past hurt that is stopping you from meeting your potential. All you have to do is reach out!

Jessica Hahn
It was never a question for me what I would do with my life nor was it surprising to my family and friends when I chose this professional path for myself. I have a warmth, compassion, and natural tendency to empathy that led me directly into the mental health profession. My name is Jessica and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Pennsylvania hoping to help you achieve the change you wish to see in yourself. Researching a therapist and a variety of counseling services in the area already shows me that you are willing to take accountability for your mental health and take the next step into a healthier version of you. Whether you are a teen or adult; I have had experience working with and around all populations as well as with a variety of diagnoses and struggles including depression, anxiety, ADHD, Mood Disorders, Bipolar, self-esteem, PTSD, grief and loss, behavioral problems, attachment issues, and IDD. Through my work in outpatient, residential, and community-based services I have strived to provide strengths based and person-centered psychotherapy for a complex array of diagnoses. My work has been intensive and has prepared me to gain a better understanding of how to individualize treatment based on the needs of the client. I have worked from a trauma focused perspective with many clients and have a strong background in trauma work, I think it is so important to recognize perspective and to empower clients by asking questions like “what happened to you?” as opposed to “what is wrong with you?”. I attained my Bachelor of Science in Psychology from East Stroudsburg University and almost immediately began work in my Master’s program. I completed my Master of Education in School Counseling from Kutztown University Licensure track so that I could continue in my pursuit to helping others in a multitude of settings Life is a series of choices. Researching therapy options and joining with a therapist is a choice. It is a positive choice that can only lead to growth and furthering your potential. I look forward to empowering you to be your own voice, to recognize what is possible, and to know the power that lies in the choices you make for yourself everyday.

I use evidence based techniques including cognitive-behavioral therapy, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and solution-focused counseling. My goal as a therapist is to assist the client in fulfilling their therapeutic goals to their fullest potential and healing inner conflict with present or past trauma.

Ethel "Dawn" Capone
I believe the therapeutic relationship is the key to unlocking the door, no matter what issues lie behind that door. Without a strong foundation of trust, respect, and communication--the 3 pillars upon which any relationship is built--progress cannot be made. This is where we begin. My clients view me as empathic, empowering, and trustworthy--ideals I foster through open communication. I have a unique ability to meet people where they are so that I am able to guide them on their journey toward wellness. My goal is to help you move through your problems toward effective solutions.
