I like to use an eclectic approach to therapy that includes CBT, System’s theory, Play Therapy, and Solution Focused therapy in order to individualize sessions to each client’s needs. I’m very passionate about providing a welcoming and open approach that allows for both personal and emotional growths.

We all go through stressful periods in our lives. Sometimes it's a result of a traumatic event, such as a sexual assault, loss of a loved one, or difficult life transition. Sometimes it's more complicated to pinpoint. Maybe we are having trouble coping with school, work, or everyday life and are not sure why. Maybe we feel stuck and just feel "off" or not ourselves. I believe that everyone is capable of changing their life and moving toward happiness. Whether you are new to therapy or have gone in the past, I'll work with you with non-judgment and compassion to help to you on your journey of personal growth.

Connection is key! I seek to provide the space for clients to allow themselves to be open, explore and accept aspects about themselves where shame and fear may have been the barrier. Past trauma, damaging relationships, anxiety, depression, and spiritual abuse are just a few areas where shame and fear are created. These lead us to isolate, mask, and seek unhealthy coping skills in order to face the day. If you find yourself not enjoying relationships, not able to fulfill or even understand your passion/purpose, or stuck in anxiety, depression or addiction I would be honored to walk through these things with you.

Hi! I'm Lesa Parker. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Pennsylvania.
