Emily Cyburt
Hello! My name is Emily Cyburt, and I have been an outpatient mental health therapist since 2013, and have been licensed since 2019 in the state of Pennsylvania as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). I hold a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology and Master of Science degree in Community Counseling. I am a Certified Personality Disorder Treatment Provider (C-PD) with training to treat individuals with personality disorders, as well as help those being affected by someone in their life with a personality disorder. I am also recognized as a Nationally Certified Counselor (NCC) with the National Board of Certified Counselors since 2018, a voluntary national certification, and the largest national counselor certification in the world, that identifies counselors who have met national standards set by the profession. I work best with teens, young adults, and middle aged persons. I am most comfortable and competent in treating anxiety, depression, low self esteem/self confidence, relationship/marital problems, attachment styles, communication improvement, and boundary work. I am also a Certified Personality Disorder Treatment Provider (C-PD) with training to treat individuals with personality disorders, as well as help those being affected by someone in their life with a personality disorder. The areas in which I do not treat are trauma (childhood, domestic violence, abuse, exposure etc), eating disorders, grief and loss, addiction (drug, alcohol, sexual, gambling), OCD, and pre and post-partum related issues. My counseling style is non-Christian based, truthful and honest. I believe change can only occur through dedication to the process, hard work outside of session, honest reflection, and working together as a team. My approach combines Person Centered, Cognitive Behavioral, Psychoeducational, and Rational-Emotive counseling. But what does all that mean? Person-centered therapy is talk therapy wherein you, the client, does most of the talking. I will not judge or try to interpret what you say, but may restate your words in an attempt to fully understand your thoughts and feelings. CBT places an emphasis on changing thinking patterns. Through exercises in the session, as well as “homework” exercises outside of sessions, clients are helped to develop coping skills, whereby they can learn to change their own thinking, problematic emotions, and behavior. Psychoeducation helps people better understand (and become accustomed to living with) mental health conditions. It is generally known that those who have a thorough understanding of the challenges they are facing as well as knowledge of personal coping ability, internal and external resources, and their own areas of strength are often better able to address difficulties, feel more in control of the condition(s), and have a greater internal capacity to work toward mental and emotional well-being. REBT is an action-oriented approach that’s focused on helping people deal with irrational beliefs and learn how to manage their emotions, thoughts, and behaviors in a healthier, more realistic way. Using these approaches, we will work together to create a plan and goals to help you achieve success. It takes courage to seek help and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you!

Angela Wychunis
Hello there! Let me first start by saying thank you and congratulations! You should pat yourself on the back for taking the initiative to becoming a better version of yourself. Admitting that you may need guidance is hard, but here you are taking steps towards mental clarity. For that, you should be very proud of yourself, as you have crossed one of the biggest hurdles. My name is Angela, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Pennsylvania. I earned a masters degree in Clinical Psychology in 2013. My undergraduate degree is in Clinical/Counseling Psychology with a minor in Criminal Justice. I recently earned a School Counselor Certification to expand my horizon in the counseling field. For 8 years, I worked as a Psychology Services Specialist in a correctional setting (Virginia and Pennsylvania). In this setting, I worked closely with clients experiencing many issues in both individual and group settings. A lot of my time has been spent helping people manage depression, anxiety, crises, grief, trauma, substance abuse, thoughts of suicide and/or self-harm, family conflict, anger, sexuality, and identity issues. I have also been lucky to attend many trainings to strengthen my awareness in the field. I currently work as a School Counselor in a middle school and absolutely love it! I take a very client-centered approach and try to be as eclectic as possible to best meet my clients' needs. It is important that we can build a rapport combined with mutual trust to make your therapeutic experience a powerful and helpful one. I really enjoy an integrative approach that uses both cognitive-behavioral and humanistic therapy methods. I am a strong believer in mindfulness and would love to provide clients with different worksheets and techniques that would be helpful in their daily lives. Self-care is extremely important, so I will certainly be encouraging that on the regular. In my spare time, spending time with family and friends, traveling, exploring nature, reading, or hanging with my dogs is where you will find me (REMEMBER: self-care is key)!! Whether it be myself or another therapist you see fit, I absolutely hope you find what you were looking for on your journey. If I seem like someone who may fit your goals and needs, please feel free to reach out. I look forward to talking to you soon!

Melissa Ray
Hi :) I’m Melissa, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I specialize in helping individuals who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, stuck in difficult patterns, struggling with self-esteem, or weighed down by past experiences that continue to impact their daily lives. Many of the people I work with are used to holding everything together on the outside while feeling exhausted, frustrated, or misunderstood on the inside. You might find yourself overthinking, being hard on yourself, questioning your worth, or reacting in ways you wish you wouldn’t. You may even know what you “should” think or do, but still feel stuck. If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to keep carrying it by yourself. I work with clients navigating anxiety, trauma, relationship stress, self-worth challenges, and life transitions. Together, we’ll gently explore what’s going on beneath the surface, identify practical tools that actually fit your life, and help you build a stronger, more stable sense of self so you can feel more grounded, confident, and at peace. My approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to you. I use evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Trauma-Focused CBT, always through a compassionate, trauma-informed lens. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe enough to be honest, understood, and supported—without judgment. I also bring both professional and personal experience with foster care and adoption, which gives me a deeper understanding of the unique challenges individuals and families in these spaces may face. You don’t have to figure everything out on your own. I’d be honored to walk alongside you as you move toward a life that feels more steady, confident, and aligned with who you want to be. Warmly, Melissa

Find a therapist near you in Lanesboro, Pennsylvania
Finding a therapist near you in Lanesboro, Pennsylvania starts with matching to a licensed professional who fits your needs, schedule, and goals.

Why work with a licensed therapist near you?
Working with a licensed therapist near you gives you access to professional mental health support from someone trained to help you understand and manage what you are going through. A licensed therapist can offer evidence-based approaches, a steady space to talk, and guidance tailored to your situation. In Pennsylvania, online therapy can make that care more accessible, since sessions happen from home or wherever you are, without the need to travel to an office. This can help if your schedule is full, if travel is difficult, or if you simply prefer a more discreet setting. You can learn more about what a therapist does on the therapist role page.
Online therapy can be especially helpful for people living across Pennsylvania, where access to in-person mental health care may vary by location.
What concerns can therapists help with?
Therapists can help with a wide range of concerns, including anxiety and stress, depression, trauma and PTSD, self-esteem and identity, people-pleasing and fear of rejection, insomnia and racing thoughts, workplace stress and burnout, substance use, parenting and co-parenting stress, grief and loss, and relationship and family challenges. Therapists on BetterHelp may draw on approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), depending on your needs and goals.

In-person therapy takes place at an office and may involve travel and set appointment windows.

Both formats can support meaningful progress, so the right choice often comes down to what fits your life.
