I tailor therapy to each person’s unique journey, drawing from EMDR, Progressive Counting, IFS, CBT, Mindfulness, Grief Counseling, and The Gottman Method.
Taking this step towards therapy is an act of courage. My approach is to meet you exactly where you are and help uncover the patterns, experiences, and beliefs that may be holding you back from your most authentic self. I believe we have to feel it to heal it—meaning therapy with me is a process of moving through your emotions, not around them. As a trauma-informed therapist, I understand that the body often remembers what the mind tries to forget. I help reconnect your body, mind, and emotions so you can safely explore your most vulnerable self and embrace the parts you’ve silenced, finding balance, freedom, and self-acceptance.

At Pause Counseling Services, our aim is just that - to give you the chance to take a pause in your day and focus on healing and meeting your needs. This is especially needed for adults with ADHD and Autism, as well as individuals facing difficult challenges and/or adversity. The demands of life often force us to ignore or suppress our struggles. This can be a place where those external demands get momentarily shut down and you can feel empowered to explore your own needs, wants, and goals. Megan approaches therapy from a biopsychosocial lens, understanding that multiple factors blend together to make us who we are.

Hi, I’m Kristin! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Pennsylvania with a background in outpatient mental health and community-based work. I graduated with a bachelor’s degree of psychology, then went on to obtain a Master’s degree of social work and appropriate licensure. I work primarily with adults who feel overwhelmed, stuck or burned out- especially those who are used to being the “strong one” for everyone else. Many of my clients are navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship stress, or the quiet exhaustion that comes from constantly holding it together. I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space to work together.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) Therapists
How does cognitive behavioral therapy work?
Cognitive behavioral therapy works by exploring how your thoughts affect your emotions and experiences. CBT helps you identify distortions in your thinking. For example, you may tend to jump to the worst case scenario catastrophizing or think in extremes (all-or-nothing thinking). A therapist can teach you how to push back against those thoughts to ultimately change your feelings and behavior for the better. They can also provide coping skills to better deal with stressors and challenges.

When do I know to seek treatment with cognitive behavioral therapy?
It’s reasonable to consider cognitive behavioral therapy if you struggle to manage difficult emotions or behaviors to such an extent that you are not getting the most out of life on a day-to-day basis. If you want a shorter term, concrete, skills-based approach, CBT is a great option. (By contrast, other types of therapy may devote more time to exploring your past and its effects.) The decision to seek CBT also depends on the condition you’re treating; CBT is an effective treatment for anxiety, depression, trauma, and many other disorders.

How can I find a cognitive behavioral therapist for someone else?
To find a cognitive behavioral therapist for someone else, you may want to begin by discussing the person’s problem, researching cognitive behavioral therapy, and assessing whether the approach is the right fit. You could then reach out to a few cognitive behavioral therapists in this directory, explain the scenario, have a consultation with those available, and determine who could be a good match.

Why is CBT such a popular form of therapy?
CBT has become a popular form of therapy because it is effective and accessible. Robust research has demonstrated that CBT is an effective treatment for many mental health conditions. And CBT can be learned in relatively few sessions, which means that many people can engage in the process, afford it, and see results quickly. It involves learning concrete skills such as disputing unhelpful thoughts; these skills can also be taught and spread widely.
