Therapists in Foxburg, PA

Hi, I'm Patrick, a Licensed Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania with over 25 years of experience helping people in various settings. I received my Bachelor's degree in Psychology from Widener University with a focus on behavioral medicine and health psychology, learning the amazing ways in which we can improve or regain health and wellness using the power of the mind. Then, while working on an inpatient adolescent psychiatric unit, I witnessed the damaging effects of trauma, abuse and neglect and so I returned to school at Temple University and earned a Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology to be better equipped to help others deal with life's many challenges. I have worked in clinical, educational and correctional facilities providing individual counseling, conducting workshops and seminars on stress management, making healthy choices and other topics, as well as running psycho-educational group programs for violence prevention, drug abuse prevention, relapse prevention and anger management. I have continued to provide outpatient therapy addressing a number of issues - anxiety, depression, substance abuse, grief and loss, work and career problems, relationship issues, life transitions and more. No matter what type of challenges you are facing, I believe we all have the capacity to improve ourselves and live more authentic, healthy and fulfilling lives. Success in any endeavor is a process of developing awareness, gaining acceptance and taking effective action. My style is supportive and empowering, using elements of cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness and positive psychology to educate and inspire others to master these skills. I take a holistic approach to counseling, looking at every aspect of a person's life to identify strengths, build resiliency and encourage growth. I am also sensitive to the needs and challenges of individuals from different groups, including racial, cultural, LGBT, differently abled or other. I respect the values and experiences of my clients and I aspire to see the world from their perspective as we work towards the life they want to live.

My name is Alie and I am a Professional Counselor, licensed in the state of Pennsylvania. I have over 7 years of experience in working with clients presenting with various challenges, including: depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, marital issues, OCD, attention-related disorders, self-harm, trauma, addiction and challenges related to various life transitions. My style is warm and personal, for I think it is important to tailor therapy to each individual, so as to inspire both comfort and positive growth. Sometimes, asking for help is the most difficult step and for that, I already admire your strength. My approach is a combination of cognitive-behavioral, humanistic and psychodynamic therapies, wherein we will explore methods of helping you to find a happier and more functional way-of-life. If you have any questions along the way, please feel free to ask; there is nothing I would like more, than to help you lead a more satisfying life. Thank you for checking-out my profile and I look forward to working together :)

Hello and welcome! I am a licensed professional counselor in Pennsylvania with over 20 years of experience working in the field of mental health. I have had the pleasure of working with clients ranging from children to older adults in an array of areas such as depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting, career challenges and many others. I have also worked with both younger and older adults around the area of trauma. I approach each client as a partner in their journey. I believe all people are able to achieve wellness. I affirm that each person is different and that there is no such thing as a cookie cutter approach to therapy. I take a holistic approach to counseling, understanding that a person’s motivation and readiness for change can be a catalyst for positive outcomes. I applaud anyone who seeks out counseling. I am always excited and enthusiastic to be part of your journey towards a happier and more fulfilling life. If you are willing, I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you.

Welcome! Way to go, you are ready to make yourself a priority. This might be the first thing you’ve done for yourself in a long time. Congratulations. I am excited to start this journey together, whether that is to learn to better take care of yourself and your happiness; work through lows, darkness, stressors, or anxiousness; or process a relationship or career you are struggling with. Whatever brings you here, I offer you a nonjudgmental listening ear, support, feedback, and help to achieve your goals. Therapy takes time, I don’t have a magic wand I can wave and make it all better, but we can work together and put you on a track to keep thriving. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, originally from Colorado, I have lived in several states and countries, I love getting to know new people, places, and cultures. I have experience in working with high school and college students, as well as adults in crisis due to mental health, domestic violence, suicidality, homelessness, and substance abuse. In working with teenagers, I work to improve family dynamics, communication, and provide support to parents. I enjoy working with adolescents and young adults because they are curious, exploring, and eager to figure out who they are, who they want to be, who they want to love, and everything in between. I also think that is what a lot of us adults are still doing. We’re just not as open about it. I use a person-centered, multicultural, solution-focused, and a cognitive behavioral approach to therapy. I seek to provide a safe place where you feel comfortable having uncomfortable conversations because therapy isn’t always easy, but I want you to be your authentic self while we work together. Britt

Welcome! I'd like to tell you about myself and my practice so you have a good idea of what to expect throughout our work together. My practice is built upon the foundations of psychodynamic, object-relations, cognitive/behavioral, and systems theories. I believe that our relationships and experiences shape the lens through which we view the world. In turn, the resulting thoughts, feelings, and behaviors shape our interactions - both personally and professionally. I believe that every client is unique and presents with the ability to reach full potential. As such, I strive to identify and eliminate barriers to growth. This is made possible by a therapeutic relationship characterized by mutual trust, authenticity, and acceptance. Every client brings a unique skillset into therapy; my aim is to capitalize on existing strengths, introduce new techniques/approaches, cultivate intuition, and bolster confidence. My practice is characterized by a relational approach, which is empathic and attentive. I promote learning through discovery by encouraging clients to reframe and self-reflect. I also partner with clients to engage in cooperative learning, interactive processing, and mutual problem-solving. I look forward to working together!

In 1992 I was fortunate to end a 20 year period of continued substance use. I have since been able to participate in significant rehabilitative activities including but not limited to education and employment. I completed the Masters of Arts degree from The Indiana University of Pennsylvania in 2016. I recently resigned from employment as a Behavioral Health Therapist with The University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, Western Psychiatric Hospital – Narcotic Addiction Treatment Program (NATP) to pursue private practice. I have received mentoring/supervision at The Mt. Ararat Counseling Center (MACC), starting in 2011 when I started a practicum for an undergraduate degree in Human Services from Geneva College and continued after completing the requirements for the MA. I have previous experience as a Batterers Intervention Specialist with The Domestic Abuse Counseling Center(DACC) from 1996-2002 to go with 28 years of continued ongoing recovery which has been the basis for unlimited growth. In 2018 I successfully completed the 30 hour level I clinical training presented by The Council on Compulsive Gambling of Pennsylvania, Inc. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I operate from a strength’s based prospective which is informed by integrating person-centered theory, cognitive behavior therapy, and motivational interviewing that emphasizes self-actualization, and responsibility. I view counseling from a tripartite approach where I assist my clients with self-awareness, gaining knowledge, and developing skills that may assist them with strategies to manage effectively and successfully the various transitions experienced in life. I believe people long to live lives that reflect harmony between their thoughts and their actions. Many times, stress and distress complicate this effort. The therapeutic environment represents a safe place to explore options, diverge thinking, and resolve tension. I believe the highest aspiration of the human heart is helping others while encouraging mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being. Let’s journey together.

I am a supportive and compassionate therapist who enjoys working with a diversified group of clients. I design the therapy approach based on the client's needs. The first therapy session reviews the goals of the client so that a treatment plan can be planned. The therapy experience should be motivational and helpful to the client. The client should walk away from the therapy session with a fresh approach to their problem.

I believe that if every human being had someone to provide them with unconditional positive regard, especially during the formative years of childhood, our world would be a safer place. Unfortunately, many of us don’t even make it through childhood without wound from emotionally painful experiences. Sometimes the consequences from these experiences are long-lasting, and can impact our well-being, relationships, and work. Fortunately, therapy can help. I have worked in community and university settings for the past 7 years, and I have experience treating a variety of mental health struggles such anxiety, depression, sexual abuse, trauma, marriage/family issues, and communication challenges. I am a licensed marriage and family therapist in the state of Pennsylvania. I draw from process-experiential models to help you explore your inner world in order to access your authentic self. To accomplish this, I create a non-judgmental space for you to be able to process your emotions and experiences honestly. I also integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Family Systems Theories to provide you with coping tools and a deeper understanding of your situation.
