Attachment-based Therapists in Buck Hill Falls, PA

My name is Nicole Rook, and I am a National Certified Counselor (NCC) and a trained EMDR clinician through EMDRIA. As someone who has faced my own mental health challenges, I understand the pain of feeling stuck and unheard. I want you to know that your pain matters, and I am here to support you on your journey. My mission is to create a safe space where you can feel seen, heard, and supported as we work together to explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences with compassion and understanding. Therapy is not only about addressing the "bad" in our lives, but includes exploring our strengths and building resilience.

After 42 years as a social worker, I feel I am uniquely qualified to deal with a variety of issues. I believe you are your best advocate and know your issues in a way that will help you to restore your life to the way you envision. My role will be to support you on this journey and provide direction and feedback to help take the steps necessary to get you where you want to be. Unresolved grief, trauma and relationship issues can block us from having the lives we want and make it difficult for us to have healthy connections. You are the best one to recognize where you want to go and how you want to get there, I will guide you

Many of my clients have come to me after being diagnosed fully believing that their lives were over. Mental health issues do not define who you are as a person. They are just a small part of why we react in particular situations, in specific ways. I have a passion to help my clients and their families to discover not only how to overcome their mental health issues, but to thrive despite their mental health issues.

First off, thank you for taking the time to read my profile. In my time as a counselor/therapist I have found that the process of selecting a therapist is at best awkward, and at worst terrifying. People simply don’t wake-up feeling upset one day and think, “Wow, I feel yucky, I think I will talk to a therapist.” More often than not a therapist is considered as a last resort, or after coming to a conclusion of, “I don’t know what else to do.”

Today, you are one step closer to feeling more empowered and embarking on a positive path that leads to personal growth and well-being. Greetings, I am Dr. Miller, a psychodynamic therapist and counselor. I provide therapy to adults, children (aged 6+ years), adolescents, couples, groups, and families. My key objective is to assist you to realize your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating, and this is best achieved by using an eclectic, integrative approach.

Clients often reach out during times of distress when life situations or challenges have become overwhelming. Family stressors, anxiety, depression or managing negative thoughts and behaviors are issues that many have faced. Here at East Stroudsburg Counseling Associates, we can help steer you towards the path of balancing these stressors and discovering new techniques and tools to manage life challenges. With motivation and support, change and adaptation is possible at any time in life.

I provide counseling for individuals, couples, and families with a desire of helping them bring joy back to their relational functioning.

I enjoy working with folks who find parenting to be more difficult than they anticipated for a variety of reasons. Often I do this by working with separate sessions with you & your child and combined sessions with you and your child. If you're looking for a place to strengthen your relationship with your young child and/or understand their behaviors in new and different ways, I would love to support you. I also enjoy exploring transitions, grief & loss and how that impacts how we show up in relationships, whether that be with our own children, friends, our families, or at work.

If we often struggle to connect with ourselves and with others, then how can we feel safe, how can we make sense of what's happening inside, how can we make sense of what's happening between us and others? I help people find meaningful ways to effectively communicate and connect with themselves and each other, make sense of their experiences and relationships, and ultimately, find a path toward healing. I believe in the innate drive of every person to move toward health. With acceptance, curiosity, and compassion, I help people slow down, attune to that drive, and support them in moving with it.

I believe you know yourself better than anyone else. I also believe humans are built for connection, and when you find a therapist that is the right fit for your needs, therapy can be healing. I encourage safety and empowerment during sessions, while compassionately challenging you to work toward your individual goals and embrace your intuitive sense of self.

In addition to those specialities, I support clients who are challenged with depression, anxiety, general stress, and the emotional aspects of weight loss and challenges associated with weight loss.

As an individual, sex, and relationship therapist, I hope to accompany clients through challenges and help them find greater trust, permission, and pleasure within themselves. I am particularly interested in supporting folks in navigating their relationships with their bodies and sexualities during times of change, loss, and transition. As a queer and trans person, I enjoy working with clients of all genders, on all journeys. I am poly-friendly, kink-friendly, fat positive, and sex work positive. I love supporting partnerships and non-traditional relationships. I work well with fellow artistic and spiritual people.

I am glad you are here and I respect your courage to ask for help. My passion is families and couples. I love to fill up my office with every family member from babies to grandparents. In the sessions, I am given the privilege of learning about your strengths, your struggles, and watching your interactions with each other. Even at the hardest time, the family’s strengths and the couple's strengths can still prevail. Family Therapy is about the connection between each family member. The goal of family therapy is to empower the entire family and teach them the skills to handle past stressors and prepare them for future events.
