ADHD Therapists in Harrisburg, PA

After asking your teenager countless times to clean their room, you walk in to see them playing video games with their dirty socks all over the floor! Now you’re seeing red. You’re either giving in to their bad behavior, snapping in frustration, and then feeling guilty about it. You know your kid needs extra support. His teachers have been throwing around “ ADHD ” as a diagnosis, but no one has any helpful advice. You’re in over your head. The habits he learns now will affect the rest of his life, and you feel like you’re failing him as a parent. You want what’s best for your child­, but this feels like more than you can handle alone.

If you're here, I probably don't need to tell you that the rate of depression in college students continues to rise and college counseling centers can't keep up. You're sad. You're empty. You're filled with doom about the plight of the world and you're not even sure if there's a point in trying anymore. Our team specializes in working with individuals who are depressed, self-harming or having thoughts of suicide. We'll help you balance your mood, increase your self-worth and improve your relationships so that you can actually enjoy life again rather than trying to escape it.

Hi, I’m Marisol! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 9 years of experience working with teens, young adults, and adults. My background includes having worked in outpatient as well as private practice settings. I most commonly treat anxiety, life transitions, career exploration, ADHD , stress management, parenting support, and depression. I work from a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy perspective but also employ various other therapeutic techniques to help you feel heard, validated, and empowered to make healthy choices. I can offer therapy services in English and Spanish.

Are you having problems with your child or teen? Is it difficult to communicate with them and do you worry about the choices they are making? Together, we can work on bettering the relationship you have and improve the quality of your or your child's life. My experience in many clinical arenas ranging from residential facilities to outpatient settings will help us meet these goals. My theoretical style is eclectic but I primarily use Cognitive Behavioral techniques to treat many issues.

My approach to treatment is based in the Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) model. I work to help you identify feelings that have an impact on your behaviors and attitudes. By identifying this string of thoughts, feelings and actions, we can work together to make changes that bring about positive outcomes in your life. At times, making changes can be difficult. Techniques of Motivational Interviewing are useful when struggling to determine what changes would be the most beneficial. I approach every session with a trauma informed attitude so events that leave an emotional imprint can be effectively explored.

Without a doubt, life is challenging! There are times where we can feel lost, cluttered, confused, frustrated, and more. Whatever may be happening, my goal is to help you sort through the clutter, chaos, and confusion and to help you reach the goals you feel are most important to you. Our connection to others is an important factor in our lives. My goal is to work with you to build a connection that is beneficial to you and helpful in the ways that you see fit. Whether that means having someone to listen to you vent out your frustrations or have someone work with you on becoming who you wish to be, I want to be there to help.
