Hi! My name is Lauren. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker/Psychotherapist. Are you navigating grief, chronic illness or a rare disease, or a major life transition? Maybe you grew up in a family impacted by addiction, conflict, or instability, and want to explore how those experiences are showing up in your life today. These experiences can shape your boundaries, self-worth, and sense of responsibility for others—often influencing relationships, personal growth, and even physical health. In therapy, we’ll explore how your past and present connect, process what you’ve been carrying, and begin to shift patterns that no longer serve you—so you can move forward with greater clarity and self-trust. I bring both professional training and lived experience, meeting you with empathy and insight. Using a blend of psychodynamic, narrative, CBT, and other approaches, I tailor therapy to your needs. Together, we’ll explore patterns, process emotions, and build tools for lasting change. Starting therapy can feel intimidating—you don’t have to do it alone. Together, we’ll create a space to explore challenges at your own pace and move toward healing and growth.

Hi! Let me start by telling you a little about myself. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the states of Pennsylvania and New Jersey. I have 23 years of experience working in the mental health field. I have worked with a culturally diverse population with a variety of mental health challenges. I assist clients with creating goals to improve their mental health and wellness. My counseling style is interactive, non-judgmental and respectful. I have enjoyed the opportunity to help others develop self-awareness, coping skills and behavior modification. I believe the therapeutic process is a partnership between a therapist and an active and willing participant focused on getting to wellness in their individual journey. As we all are complex and individual beings with personal underlying factors, my favored methodology is Integrative Therapy. I believe this method allows the therapist and the participant freedom to explore various aspects of self with varied approaches. If you are ready to take that first step towards change, I am here to support and empower you! Please note that I do not work on the weekends and won't be online. Let’s get started!

Hi! I am Karin, a Licensed Therapist in Pennsylvania. This has been my life long dream, to be a counselor. When other kids were playing house or school, I was playing psychiatrist - though I am sure I didn't know how to spell it then! I used to write letters to my cousins that read more like a Dear Abby advice columnist than a kid's communication with their bestie. I poured over advice columns in teen magazines like, "was my face red..." and never cared about the current fashions as much as "could this marriage be save?"! So here I am, years later, living out my passion and realizing that I don't have the advice, nor do I want to! But that I have a listening spirit and clinical skill that can be of help to anyone that needs it. I lean toward Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, but simply put, that means that there is a connection between what you think and then how you feel. So if you don't like how you feel, we look at what you are saying to yourself and if that is helping you to feel the way you want to feel or not! Pretty simple really. I want to help people feel as good as they possibly can right now... with the circumstances they have and with the past they have lived through. And it is possible to have lived through some really bad things and still have peace and serenity in your life. If you are not convinced, that could be a good reason why you need to work with me. Looking forward to connecting with you.
