Hello, and thank you for your interest in services. My name is Anja Whitehead and I’m a master's level clinician and Nationally Certified Counselor in Pennsylvania, working towards licensure under supervision. I have a background in working with individuals facing anxiety, PTSD, depression, phase of life problems, and more. I pride myself on cultivating a comfortable, warm, empathetic therapeutic environment for all clients. I work with teens, adults, and couples.
My approach to treatment varies, from client to client. Depending on your needs we may use mindfulness, strength-based approaches, solution focused, person centered, and more. I will meet you where you are, and we will work together through the therapeutic process. Together, we will find what techniques work for you.
My goal is to walk alongside you and navigate this phase of life together. You do not have to carry the weight of life alone. I am happy you’re here taking this step for yourself, and I look forward to working with you.

I tend to use a mix of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, and Strength Based approaches. The approach I use varies person to person to find what fits best. For those who like a more hands on approach, I can bring aspects of art/music therapy into our practice as well. Each approach helps build your tool box of coping skills and self-regulation.
