About
Hello and thank you for taking time to read about me.

I can help you with that and many other issues and concerns too! If you are interested in meeting with me and talking about therapy please call, 724.471.8171.

I can help you with adjusting to college life, emotional upset, home sickness, worry, fear, anger, and jealousy. I focus on person centered talk therapy. You will learn skills and techniques to chose a happier, calmer, and relaxed life. I like to meet my clients, listen, build a relationship on trust, and then begin to work! I have many skills to teach you.
Once you have decided that I would be a good match as your counselor, you will begin your journey to a better place. A place with positive self esteem, self worth, and self confidence. Let me help you reach your goals! Thank you! Barbara Elkin
