About me
My name is Aurora Gonzalez. I speak both English and Spanish. I graduated with a Bachelors in Psychology from Franklin and Marshall College and a Masters in Clinical Psychology from Millersville University of Pennsylvania. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Certified Alcohol and Other Drug counselor (CAADC) in the state of Pennsylvania. I have practiced with mental health and substance use disorders for 21 years. I use cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, solution focused therapy, client-centered, and motivational interviewing. I have experience working with individuals struggling with negative self-talk, low self-esteem, codependency, mood instability, substance use, challenging irrational beliefs, anxiety, history of trauma, relationship issues, and identity development. I look forward to helping you achieve your best Self!

I love Aurora's down to earth vibe. She's really easy to talk to and she's very good at explaining things in a way that makes me think deeply. She offers resources for me to work on in my free time that shed a lot of light on things I've brought up in session. I would definitely highly suggest Aurora to anyone.
