Gambling Therapists in Armstrong County, PA

I have been a practicing therapist for over 30 years, so I have dealt with all kinds of problems and issues that people come in, seeking help with. My approach is eclectic and personalized and is based upon the issues you bring, your life situation, and your goals for therapy. I accept most major insurances but if you do not have insurance, or an insurance plan I do not participate in, I have a sliding fee scale and we can make something work for you.

Do you have trust issues in your relationship? Are you afraid to be honest with your partner or tired of trying to be someone you're not? Neither you or your partner are really talking about your hurt or resentments over pornography and infidelity. You've tried over and over again and the current situation isn't working for you and/or your relationship. Contact me and we will talk about how you feel about your challenges and together come up with a behavioral and emotional strategy for you to move forward! By the end of our FIRST session, you will be given therapeutic goals that you and I will work on.

Witnessing positive change in my clients has provided not only professional joy, but unflagging belief in the benefit of psychotherapy as a catalyst for personal growth. Investment in self can bring great personal and professional rewards. I am ready to work with clients who are seeking to identify key areas, issues or goals in their lives that will support recovery, relief and new insights into life's many confounding challenges. Optimizing my clients' potential is my primary focus.

Mental Health is health. You don't have to be afraid to reach out for help or continue to live your life on mute. It is okay to speak up and do what you need to in order to feel better, just as you would for a physical ailment! My office is a judgement free zone and I'm here to help you meet your goals when you're ready! I am a clinician with The Better Institute who works with individuals and with couples. I have 8 years of experience working with those who struggle with addiction whether that be drugs, alcohol, or gambling.

Change is hard. Life can be hard. Dealing with stress, parenting concerns, trauma, and/or an addiction can weigh us down, or make us feel inadequate. But, there is help available, and you do not have to deal with life's obstacles on your own.

Not accepting new clients. The choice to start therapy can be a difficult one. Sometimes life’s greatest challenges also present opportunities for transformation. My desire is to provide a safe and comfortable space where that can occur. Psychotherapy can be a wonderful process to take much needed time for yourself. The world throws a lot at us. I believe therapy needs to be a conversation-tailored to each persons individual needs. Collaboration is key and my goal is to help my clients learn skills and strategies to increase coping and find peace. I also believe that change is possible for every person. My pronouns are she/her.

"To live is to have changed and to have lived well is to have changed often (John Henry Newman)." Are you struggling with anger, anxiety, depression, stress, marital, addiction or gambling problems and need help? Counseling can be the answer to a happier lifestyle. We focus on eliciting change and addressing current beliefs and behaviors that lead to negative outcomes in your life. I create an empathic and caring therapeutic environment to allow change and growth to happen. By empowering the client with strategies to overcome their problems then change begins and growth emerges. This leads to personal success.

Experience working in multiple settings, including private practice and community healthcare. I look to help clients struggling with gambling addiction, drug and alcohol addiction, and other mental health disorders.

Life can leave you feeling stuck or overwhelmed at times. Sometimes one may feel generally dissatisfied with life and wanting more, if any of these are you...you are not alone. Depression, hopelessness, relationship problems, loss, domestic/sexual violence, sexual abuse, and addiction are just a few of the issues that bring people into counseling. Confronting these realities can be a daunting task. Counseling and the therapeutic relationship can help individuals address these adversities, transcend negative emotions and heal. I've learned that a safe and trusting therapeutic relationship is the foundation to combating negative emotions such as; sadness, guilt, shame, anxiety, hurt, and hopelessness.

I am always available and ready to help anyone, regardless of issue or age, except you must be 14+ and preferably an adult. Most major insurances are accepted, but I am not trained or qualified to work with drug/alcohol specific or transgender patients. My website is josephatalamo.com.

Does your present situation appear hopeless and without solution? Our hearts can become sick when we lose our sense of hope. Sometimes we need help in identifying and developing strategies for meaningful change. Hello, my name is Bob BeHanna and I currently work with adults and adolescents ages 5 and up suffering from many different issues. I primarily focus on issues such as depression, anxiety disorders, substance abuse, PTSD, Trauma and relationship problems. I have experience in both inpatient and outpatient mental health settings.

Not accepting new clients at this time. It is my professional and personal belief that individuals do not heal in an environment of shame and guilt. For this reason, I strive to create a non-judgmental atmosphere where clients feel safe to discuss their issues in an open and productive way. My specialty areas are substance use disorders (addictions) and trauma. Guilt and shame are two feelings that are frequently felt by those who struggle with addictive issues, and for those who have experienced trauma. My goal is to help clients and their families understand their issues and work toward a better life.

Mental health has a stigma. It implies that someone who is struggling needs help from a therapist just to return back to their baseline. At Mental Fitness, however, we want to help you achieve more than that. We do this by challenging our clients to remove self-limiting beliefs, master their emotions, and improve their relationships. Beyond just listening and validating, we offer guidance and structure to inspire you to achieve your best self. Here at Mental Fitness, we truly believe, “If you master your thinking, you master your life!”

I enjoy helping people. I am able to address many issues, such as depression, anxiety, addiction issues, relationship concerns, sexuality concerns, and many more. I offer a comfortable environment for my clients and will work with you to find the solutions that you need.

I have experience in treating individuals that suffer from depression, anxiety, substance abuse and all sorts of other psychological diagnoses. I concentrate on developing a therapeutic relationship and cultivating a safe environment where the clients can share freely. I am a very big fan of emphasizing the strengths and I follow a client-centered approach to counseling. I view therapy as a collaborative process and I am committed to working hard toward achieving therapeutic goals. Transferring what you learn in the therapy session to the outside world step-by-step is also something I strive for.

We offer in person and teletherapy video sessions. Life isn’t always easy. Even the strongest people amongst us need a little bit of help to work through some of life’s more challenging problems. Everyone has battles to fight and hurdles to overcome at some point. Whether you struggle with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, or any other issue, you should know that there is hope for a better tomorrow. You might be initially hesitant to seek out help and support for personal matters, but when you do, you will feel confident that you are taking a courageous first step towards getting to a better place and being a better you.
