Jungian Therapists in Donora, PA

I am a clinical psychologist and Jungian analyst. I work with a range of individuals whose lives have become problematic due to hurt, wounding, disappointment, loss, grief and general life suffering that has resulted in symptoms of impasse, anxiety, depression, dysfunction and/or a loss of potential. My view of the therapeutic relationship is of a mutual effort to work together to discover a way to continue psychological development, to seek a way to heal and find a deeper sense of vitality, renewal and meaning, In addition, I work well with university students, artists, and with those who are struggling with spiritual issues.

I am a feminist, LGBTQ+ affirming, trauma-informed, eclectic neuro-psychotherapist, and my style is casual and saturated with humor. I am a licensed professional counselor, nationally certified counselor, PMH-C perinatal mental health certified specialist (pregnancy & postpartum), and an ADHD-CCSP, ADHD Certified Clinical Services Provider. My approaches are flexible and person specific, but I use client centered therapy, feminist therapy, behavioral neuroscience research, skill building, parts work, and other techniques as needed. I am currently only accepting new ADULT clients, no new children and adolescents at this time.

I believe that the core to effective therapy is a strong and trusting relationship between therapist and client. Within this working relationship we can explore deeper issues and learn healthier ways of coping and bringing about positive change. People have within themselves the ability to heal but finding that inner strength is sometimes limited by unhealthy coping skills, stress, trauma and grief. It is important to treat the whole person, not just the addiction. I utilize a Person Centered/Strength Based Approach in helping clients reach their goals.

Have you been feeling lonely, disconnected or not like yourself? Maybe there are issues from the past that you haven't dealt with that you would like to heal without feeling overwhelmed. Possibly you feel swept away by your emotions and don't know how to get them under control. Perhaps you are feeling stuck, frustrated or tired. Oftentimes these issues can lead to anxiety, depression, or other mental health issues. My specialty is in helping you identify & address the root issues, develop the skills to deal with those issues, while getting in better relationship with yourself.

I have primarily worked with clients regarding life transitions/adjustment disorders, depression, anxiety, trauma, grief/loss, self-harm, LGBTQ exploration, interpersonal conflicts, family dynamics, spiritual/faith/religious concerns or abuse, and boundary setting. I enjoy clients who are seeking to better understand themselves and growing their confidence in who they are. Only after we have insight and awareness can we try to make meaningful changes. I enjoy explorative, open-minded depth work that is holistic and fulfilling for the client. I am trauma-informed and use an eclectic approach with a psychodynamic foundation.

It can be hard to ask for help. My focus is always on you, what you want and determining and meeting your goals. My orientation is open-minded, experienced, respectful and non-judgmental. I have been in the Behavioral Health field for 25 years and have a reputation of authenticity, unconditional, positive regard for clients and strong, reliable abilities and skills in dealing with life's challenges. I primarily practice CBT, Gestalt and Mindfulness therapies.

So- time to find a therapist! It's a powerful, maybe scary time. As a relationship and intimacy therapist, for individuals and relationships (monogamous and not), I invite you to get curious and courageous for yourself and those you care about. And for the life you really want.

On our journey it can be helpful to have someone to help us read the narratives which often define our lives. Some of those narratives keep us from experiencing what we want for ourselves now and in the future. Since graduating with a Masters in Counseling Psychology from The Seattle School of Theology and Psychology in 2010, I have been working as a therapist with people in various stages of life. A relationship between a therapist and client can provide someone with a deep reflection of how they live and are experienced. I believe therapy can give us the opportunity to rediscover our story in a new way. Real change is possible.

Sometimes you feel like something is off, but you're unsure what it is. Your head is clouded with too many thoughts or information to make clear decisions about your career, relationships, or health. You ask for advice from others, but their insight doesn't help. You research different ideas, but the internet is saturated. You feel stuck, unsure, or overwhelmed. You hope and pray that the answers will just come to you. And the truth is, when we become so self-aware that we wholeheartedly trust our intuition, those answers CAN come to you instantly, with no doubt, no fear, and no guilt. You just need a mirror to reflect your power!

Struggle is something that I believe every single living thing experiences. It is a concept that can bring us into some of our hardest moments in life, but it also presents the opportunity to connect, grow, and learn. I believe that confronting our struggles and working through them is one of the most valuable journeys that life brings. We all struggle in different ways and at different times. As a therapist, I hope to be there with you in whatever your struggle may be. I believe in meeting people where they are at and providing comfort, support, and empowerment. I follow a humanistic approach that caters to each individual's needs.

I am dedicated to supporting individuals and their journey towards self discovery, empowerment, and personal growth. My primary focus is assisting you in identifying and overcoming struggles related to confidence, body image, self esteem, and finding your place in the workforce. By fostering a safe and non judgmental environment, I aim to create a space where you can freely express your thoughts, fears, and aspirations.. Whether it's through guided exercise, reflective conversations, or skill building activities, my intention is to help you unlock you're full abilities and recognize your own self worth.

I have a very direct approach- with over 30 years of experience- guiding individuals and couples toward self-empowerment and healing. The primary focus of my practice is on short term interventions and personal growth. I am accepting new clients for interventions ranging from 3-12 sessions.

Have you tried talk therapy without significant results? Have you watched the videos, read the books, listened to the podcasts, and still you are suffering or finding it hard to change or maintain change? Traditional talk therapy may have not worked for you because you cannot talk to the part of the brain that holds the memories that are “the roots” of your symptoms and pain. Growing up, you may have not had all your needs met consistently, resulting in challenges when you attempt to get close, or maintain closeness, with others. All humans have a universal need to feel safe, secure, and to be understood. You deserve to have that.

I am a Pittsburgher and I'm proud to practice psychology in my home community. My goal is to see each client as a person first, and provide individualized healthcare. I see therapy as collaborative, and including both skill-building and self-exploration. In terms of self-exploration, I see the client as the expert in their own life, while a therapist is attuned to noticing themes or patterns that the client would have otherwise missed or avoided.

Welcome! Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or seeking positive change? My ideal client is someone navigating life's twists and turns, aiming for growth and happiness. You might be dealing with stress, anxiety, or relationship challenges. Let's collaborate to create a safe space for exploration and find practical solutions. Your goals matter, and I'm here to help you rediscover your strengths, build resilience, and foster a more fulfilling life. Together, we'll embark on a journey towards well-being and empowerment.

Hello! I'm a licensed professional counselor in the state of Pennsylvania. I've been treating clients with a wide array of issues for the past 7 years. I started my career in community mental health working with families, teens and children and eventually moved into private practice work treating individuals and couples via telehealth.

We provide counseling services to individuals, couples and families through Western Pennsylvania. Whether you are seeking treatment as an individual adult, a child, or teen, our multi-specialty approach will support your goals of resolving emotional, psychological, and relationship issues. For couples and families, our mental health specialists are experts in supporting your relationship as you gain greater friendship, intimacy, and communication barriers.

Everyone doesn't think or feel in the same way, we all have our own journey and our own way of experiencing life obstacles. As a licensed and board certified Art Therapist, as well as Licensed Professional Counselor, I will help guide you and your family through your process of healing using creative approaches tailored to fit your specific needs. I have over 20 years of experience working with Autism, developmental and learning disabilities, and behavioral issues. My other specialties include Anxiety, Oppositional behavior, Reactive Attachment, OCD and Trauma in children, adolescents, and adults.

I address all issues from the perspective of a person's environment. We all exist in the context of a family, a community and a culture. In therapy we often find that there is nothing wrong with us, depression, anxiety, etc., are not innate dysfunctions but rather result from conflict that arises in our environment. I like to help individuals, couples and families learn about these environments to better navigate them as well as learn about themselves and what it means to be who they are in the context of their environment.
