Therapists in Westmoreland County, PA

Hi there. I'm Dominic Welcome! I am a licensed clinical social worker in Pennsylvania with over 24 years of experience as a mental health therapist. I enjoy helping people get better at dealing with depression, anxiety, anger, trauma/abuse, relationship difficulties, and substance abuse. I really look forward to meeting with you. My approach to providing therapy involves applying Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution Focused Therapy (SFBT) interventions to help deal with mental health problems. I also specialize in Motivational Interviewing (MI).

My name is Dr. Aaron Keteles. I have worked in three different professional fields. I was an elementary teacher for 11 years. I was a pastor for 10 years. And now I have worked in mental health since August of 2020. I have a significant amount of experience with children and families. I am trained in Functional Family Therapy (FFT). I am also a nationally certified counselor. I have contracted with Children and Youth Services since August of 2020. I have worked in domestic violence and abuse situations. I have worked with a significant number of addicts. I also volunteer at Celebrate Recovery. I excel at faith-based counseling.

A dedicated mental health therapist who welcomes the opportunity to help you reduce emotional discomfort and build skills to manage the things that trouble you most. My approach is to create a partnership where we work together solving problems, discovering solutions and experiencing peace. My goal is to support you in having a better understanding of your inner world, to gain perspective about who you are in relationships and to increase overall health. Most importantly, I want to know the life you want for yourself and help you reach that vision.

Have you experienced trauma and aren't sure what to do next? Do you feel disconnected from yourself and others? Are your relationships struggling? Maybe you wonder if things could feel better... Happier. Healed. Carrying unresolved trauma infiltrates our relationships with ourselves and others. You don't have to endure this pain alone, but it can be overwhelming to know where to begin! I believe that all people are inherently able to create positive change and transform their lives. Together we will navigate the uniqueness of your situation and work towards empowerment and healing.

Life is a journey...have you wondered lately how your journey is working out? How would you know if you are headed in the best direction? Maybe you have a good idea of what you need to change you've just never done it before, or need help getting started. At True North Vitality, we want to partner with those looking to invest in their journey to live life to the fullest! Are you ready for transformation? Let us help you get on the best course and find your True North!

You deserve to live a life full of happiness, abundance and peace. Life can throw us in many different directions and it may become difficult to navigate. Your story needs to be told to somebody that has been there and done that and help guide you to where you want to be in life. Nobody knows you better than you. It is time to build a better version of yourself so let's start today. Please visit my website for further details on setting up your first appointment.

Are you “stuck”—either on something that’s changed in your life, in the world around us, or just in general? Maybe something just feels strange or unsettling. Change is intimidating, even when we take it one step at a time, and often we can’t see the full picture without stepping away from the lens for a wider view. Sometimes, you just need another perspective - one that's neutral and doesn't "take sides." Your situation, just like you, is unique, and I can help you through it. I’m here to honor your struggle and help you build on the skills you have. I can help you respect or heal past decisions and help you to define new ones.

I work with people who feel as if things are outside of their control and are looking to find better balance. Whether it’s a recent experience influencing your distress, or perhaps something that’s been present for much longer, I aim to help people better understand their situation and develop the skills needed to manage the thoughts and feelings that may be contributing to the struggle. Anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and general difficulty managing emotions are all areas with which I have experience. I also focus on areas such as impulse control/difficulty focusing, managing technology/internet use, and mindfulness practices.

I am doing Telehealth which I find to be effective. I have a great passion for working with my clients. Much of my current focus is working with individuals who have concerns related to: 1. building and sustaining stronger relationships (partner, work, family, etc.) 2. issues of anxiety, panic, and depression - including loss/grief. 3. Work and career challenges, including the high stress of balancing work and personal life. I've also been successful with clients who not only want to get out of the "rut" of the their lives, but who also want to explore their desire for genuine happiness, contentment, and peace of mind.
