25 years offering treatment
Hi, I have been counseling for over 25 years, having worked across both inpatient and outpatient settings, with adults and children, and with individuals and families/groups in relation to both mental health and substance abuse issues. I have a master's from Edinboro University of Pennsylvania's M.A. in Clinical Psychology program and also have earned a post-master's certificate in Psychology from Northcentral University. I plan to complete my doctoral degree in Clinical Psychology over the next 3 years. I have worked under the direct supervision of psychologists for years, conducting varied psychological testing and report writing. In addition, I have taught at the College/University level for 20 years, both part-time and full-time, in Psychology, Sociology, and Human Services. I truly love the social and behavioral sciences--so many fascinating ideas! My approach is friendly, straightforward, and solution focused. My role, really, is to assist you in reaching your goals in life. I am person-centered as we are each unique in our strengths and weaknesses. I am very eclectic in my counseling approach, drawing from the many interesting perspectives in the helping field--whether psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, or systems-based. These approaches are often very helpful in assisting folks with depression, anxiety, self-esteem, anger management, goal attainment, relationship issues, and more. On a personal level, I enjoy varied martial arts training as well as other mind-body disciplines--such as Yoga and T'ai Chi. I do often incorporate mindfulness training into counseling as can help folks with issues related to anxiety, attention, mood, relaxation, sleep, etc. Such practices can also become a bridge to self-development and spirituality, for those so interested. So, please connect with me on any questions or concerns you may have. I'd like to get to know you, and see how I may be of assistance. Sincerely, Richard States, MA, LPC

20 years offering treatment
I have been a therapist for over 16 years. I received my master’s degree in counseling psychology from Seton Hall University, and my Bachelor of Science degree from York College of Pennsylvania. However, this is a career change for me. This change was brought about by a sudden disruption to my life. As a therapist I have experience in treating addictions, anxiety, depression, stress, grief, bipolar disorder, anger management, and more. I employ cognitive behavioral therapy, most of the time. However, depending on the client and their needs I may use short term solution focused therapy or ACT. What is important to me to is for you, the client, to reach your goals and lead a more fulfilling, satisfying life. Let me help you to become a better you.
