Therapists in Grampian, PA

Life comes with stresses and challenges, and I provide a warm, safe, and supportive environment to help you navigate through these hard times. My goal is for you to finish counseling with a set of skills that will help you feel happy, successful, and confident. I will provide you the tools that will improve your quality of life. I work with a variety of diagnoses, including post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, and anxiety. I can help with stress, insomnia, and anger management.

Are you going through anxiety, depression, PTSD, unhealed past, that are often accompanied by sad feeling, guilt, loss, fear, and regret? Are you experiencing difficulty navigating stressful events in your steam of life? These are some of the questions that you will be able to explore in a collaborative approach. At Pathway Human Services we work with individuals experiencing difficult life transition, anxiety, depression, anger, trauma/PTSD, stressful events associated with grief and loss, relationship rupture, intrusive thoughts, racing thoughts, and unresolved past that could not go away.

Struggling with out of control feelings in different areas of your life, not being able to feel like your relationships are serving you, or struggling with your identity in various roles? These can all be normal struggles that most of us experience but don't always know how to solve or feel better about. When we engage in these struggles, we can see symptoms of depression, anxiety, increased conflict or anger, decreased mood, or other various disruptions in their lives.

I work with client's struggling with a range of emotional health and lifestyle issues.

Life presents us with a variety of stressors and demands that at times may feel difficult to manage. Experiencing loss, depression, anxiety, or memories of disturbing past events may feel overwhelming and prevent us from fully living in the present. Or, we may feel stuck and unsure of what to do next. If you are experiencing similar challenges, I want to help you to process them, identify strengths, and utilize those strengths to heal. I will provide a safe, supportive, judgment-free space for you to share your story, help you to be present focused, and cope with difficult emotions and situations.

At times we may struggle with intense and confusing emotions that interfere with reaching our daily goals and aspirations. By working collaboratively within in a calm, supportive and non-judgmental atmosphere, we can begin to become more curious about desired changes. Therapy can serve as a guide to help you gain a better understanding of yourself, how you relate and navigate the interpersonal relationships in your life, and within your environment. I also believe it is imperative to view therapy through the lens of trauma-informed care, while respecting each individual's background, where trauma's may have left unspoken words.

Life can be hard to navigate at times. I believe we can feel this way at any age; a child experiencing anxiety due to a tough divorce, a teenager coping with abuse, or an adult trying to move forward from past trauma that's keeping them stuck. I can help with that. I have over 18 years of experience and knowledge as a therapist. Much of my work focuses on assisting kids and families through difficult times, whatever their situation may be. I work with any issue that you feel is holding you up in life. My firm belief is that while therapy can be difficult, it can also be a pleasant and satisfying experience.

In the current world of ongoing and chronic stress, life issues can interfere with anyone's ability to live their life to the fullest. Sometimes these issues are life crises like the death of a loved one, new life phases like parenting and adjusting to a new born, or downsizing when the last child leaves home. Sometimes these issues are related to efforts to manage what feels like overwhelming stress with things like the over use of alcohol, drugs, video games, gambling, eating, anger or other less productive behaviors. Depression, anxiety, sleep issues and worry can all result from the experience of daily life. Counseling can help.
