Therapists in East Petersburg, PA

I received my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Regent University along with a Certificate of Graduate Studies in Trauma Counseling. I received my undergraduate degree from Kutztown University in Special Education and Elementary Education. I am licensed as a Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania. I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) for the treatment of trauma, stress, phobias, and other stuck points.

In today’s society it is sometimes difficult to manage our mental health. We become anxious, depressed and sometimes our relationships suffer. Many of us suffer from traumatic experiences that we have not properly processed. It is important to find ways to cope with our anxiety, overcome our depression, process our trauma and learn to communicate in a positive manner in order to build healthy relationships with others as well as with ourselves.

Pursuing counseling takes strength. You deserve a space to feel validated, seen, safe, and valued as you process your experiences and pursue growth and healing. If you are experiencing symptoms such as anxiety, life transitions, relational tension, or trauma responses; it would be my honor to support you through therapy. I provide support using a variety of therapy techniques to help clients change negative thought patterns, and build healthy coping skills. Together, we can work to discover the practical tools that will equip you to meet your personal needs and goals.

Life today creates many challenges and obstacles, but also opportunities to grow. Counseling can be a vital part to gaining and maintaining a healthy and well-balanced life. I view therapy as a way to heal through telling your story in a non-judgmental and safe setting. Therapy will give you the tools which will allow you to live your best life. Are you ready to start your counseling journey?

I am trained in EMDR and specialize in supporting parents as they navigate through prenatal and postpartum needs, birth trauma, NICU experiences, PTSD, anxiety, and depression. Transitioning into each stage of life is not easy and often doesn’t match the picture of what you thought it would be. The disconnect between what you had hoped for and your current experience may lead to feelings of devastation, confusion, isolation, and even shame. You are not alone and it does get better. We will work together to find your happiness.

In my practice, I find meeting my clients where they are and working together from their goals to be most effective. I would work with my you from a strengths-based approach, helping you to focus your goals on improving your quality of life and working on the different areas of life which either prevent you from achieving your desires or may be a strength to work from! I am open to working with clients from all ages and backgrounds!

WE HAVE HIPPA COMPLIANT VIDEO THERAPY available to all Pennsylvania clients. Are you Feeling anxious or out of control? Panicky? Having difficulties with loved ones? I can help. I believe the most important factor in therapy is not the particular style a therapist uses but the relationship between the client and the therapist. I work hard to provide an emotionally safe place where you will be able to connect with me and feel safe enough to tell me your story, your truths. Then together we will better understand where you are, where you'd like to be, and what you might do next to get there.

If you are hoping to rediscover joy, overcome anxiety, or work through a relationship that feels really hard, I can help. My years of experience have shown me first hand that many of us are in desperate need of a safe space to feel seen, heard, and understood. I utilize a trauma informed approach, including EMDR. I do not believe that one therapy approach is the best for everyone. I will work with you to navigate your unique therapy journey. Together, we will identify the resources that you already have within you to build support. We’ll also gather some new tools that you can put to use in your everyday scenarios.

Hello! My name is Christina and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who provides individual counseling to children, teens, and adults. I have been involved in the clinical psychology field since 2017. I have a strong background in psychotherapy. I incorporate a variety of theoretical orientations and evidence-based approaches to meet individual client needs. I draw from person-centered, solution-focused, trauma-focused, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and mindfulness-based techniques in my practice. I am also EMDR trained.

I have lived experience with neurodivergence, depression, anxiety, and being in a plus sized body. I have experience working with the above as well as clients with BPD, Bipolar 1 & 2, PTSD, and clients who just feel like they need a safe space to discuss day to day life stressors. I stress to my clients that therapy is for everyone and there is no such thing as a "trauma olympics" where something is better or worse than others! I work with clients age 6+.

I enjoy working with adult clients that have experienced childhood attachment wounds and are now experiencing difficulty in their adult relationships as a result. I use a combination of models, including EMDR trauma therapy to help clients heal and grow into their most vibrant and whole version of themself. Anxiety, depression, low self worth, and resentment can all come from unresolved trauma that is stuck in our body and brain. If we don’t address and treat it, it continuously shows up in our present day relationships.

I provide a safe, inclusive environment for clients to "Come As You Are" and build on the existing strengths that exist in each person.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I am trained to help guide you through life’s ups and downs based on your achievements and assets.
