Culturally Sensitive Therapists in Leechburg, PA

One of my core beliefs as a therapist is that there is power and healing in our human connections, in the words and lived experiences we share with one another. Therapy is a space for you to share your story and your experiences, and for us to work together to identify and address your unique needs. I work collaboratively with my clients to create this space and foster growth through warmth, humor, vulnerability, authenticity, and the relationship we build together. My goal is to create a space that is safe and supportive of your whole self and embraces all of your identities.

Often individuals struggle with a multitude of overwhelming issues. I focus to assist you in resolving the issues that bring you to counseling and to help you reestablish your life. Individual therapy is tailored to your needs as determined by you and your therapist. This is done by utilizing an integrative approach so I can help you overcome and manage significant life problems in a way that works for you. How can I help you resolve difficulties or transitions that you're struggling with?

Every person is a unique individual with their own stressors, but everyone can use some counseling sometimes. Hurt from the past, worries about the future, and stressors right now can get in the way of living a fulfilling, happy life. Rebecca Hahn, MA, LPC (she/her) of Counseling for Progress, LLC can help you sort through your emotions, experiences, and thoughts to make progress now. As a team, you and Rebecca Hahn can work together to reach your goals and bring a sense of calm and happiness to your daily life.

The funny things about life's hurts, they generally do not just get better on their own. Running from a problem is a race we will never win. My goal is to create a warm safe and relaxed place for you to explore, to discuss, to learn and maybe laugh. The outcome is for you to feel empowered in your life and to have HOPE. Changing or healing often require learning new skills so my approach is as much about coaching as it is about counseling. My primary counseling modes are Cognitive Dissonance and Reframing and REBT (Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy). Together we create the tools for HOPE that are custom made for you.

Do you feel stuck? Lost? Confused? Do you know what you want from life but do not know how to get there?  Each of us can experience hard times, but only a few know how to turn it into a starting point for a new life full of happiness. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with years of experience, and my mission is to bring energy and boldness to women, men and young adults by providing them the wellness tools to help them navigate and regain balance and control of their lives so they can truly love and embrace it. ​

My approach to counseling that life is often uncontrollable, but we can control how we respond, how we communicate, and how we navigate through complex social/personal/professional issues. I work primarily with teens, young adults, college students, and adults on a variety of difficulties such as anxiety, depression, suicide/suicidality, personality disorders, and career/workplace stressors.

Have you been hesitant to try counseling and are unsure of what to expect? I would love the opportunity to meet with you and help you discover your strengths and cultivate inner peace. With great care and a gentle approach, I mindfully work to create a safe space and develop meaningful therapeutic relationships with my clients.

We have current availability with our therapist Kristen Glass LCSW. She accepts UPMC Health Plan, Highmark/ Blue Cross Blue Shield, and United Healthcare/Optum. Reach out if you have experienced a loss or difficult transition if you are struggling to set boundaries or express your needs, if you are struggling with difficult emotions, or if you just aren’t feeling like yourself. Our goal is to support you in exploring your experiences, releasing things you may have been carrying, setting goals you want to achieve, and identifying patterns and beliefs creating barriers.

It is powerful, life changing and brave when we take steps toward understanding ourselves and how we interact with the world around us. At first this can sound daunting but with a solid set of tools and healthy introspection and exploration, this is a superpower. This is where our freedom lies. Things in life are often not clearly delineated. Oftentimes, we judge ourselves harshly and feel like we can’t move ahead. In therapy, we will work collaboratively to help you weather life's ups and downs while developing self-compassion.

In the words of Mr. Rogers, “Play is really the work of childhood." I see kids who have prenatal, preverbal, or early childhood trauma; attachment and behavioral issues; or struggle with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and anger. I will work with you to create a flexible treatment plan tailored to your child's individual needs, using techniques like prescriptive play therapy, filial therapy, expressive arts, sandtray, geek therapy, and attachment-based activities to directly address and heal the impact of stress on the body and brain. I help identify the reasons for children’s behavior and healthier ways to meet those needs.

I work with individuals, couples, and families who have experienced trauma as well as concerns related to depression, loss and grief, and anxiety.

I also encourage my clients to use the safe therapy space to lean into the discomfort required to make the changes that they wish to see in their lives.

When we are on our way towards healing, we may face many roadblocks: past trauma, invalidating environments, our views of ourselves, among many others. While we are hard-wired to heal, it can be hard to do so when there are many factors getting in the way of our journey towards peace. Maybe standard talk therapy or CBT has not been helpful for you in the past, and you feel stuck. My passion is working with survivors of trauma or chronically invalidating environments who hope to build a life worth living.
