Highmark Therapists in Wexford, PA

I am dedicated to counseling individuals, couples and families that desire change. We can work together to begin reducing your stress resulting from current difficulties or possibly past stressors. I can help you improve your thoughts and develop more positive forms of coping that fit your lifestyle. If you are experiencing anxiety, depression or trauma, I use cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to decrease symptoms and brain based interventions for longer term healing.

Life can be overwhelming, stressful and confusing. I get that. Sometimes we all need a little help navigating through the rough waters. I will listen to your concerns and hear what you are saying and notice what you are not saying. I will help you identify new coping skills to deal with the specific life difficulties you are facing. I view therapy as a journey that you and I will take together to figure things out in a warm, supportive, and safe environment.

Are you or your child experiencing anxiety or depression? Are past experiences negatively impacting your relationships or ability to feel more grounded in the present?

Hi! Welcome to Resilient You Counseling. I'm glad you are here! "In nature, Nothing is perfect AND Everything is perfect. A tree may be contorted, bent in different directions and still it's Beautiful! This is the duality that exist as we traverse our daily lives and experiences and the "stuff" resiliency is made of! Let my caring, empathic and down to earth nature, help guide you towards your own goals for your future. Let's work together to create your individualized plan and move forward to cultivate your future intentions.

We all have struggles. Despite our best efforts/intentions, those struggles can leave us feeling overwhelmed and even confused about how we ever got here. I want to help you explore and address your concerns, by encouraging a sense of curiosity and humor, when appropriate. Rather than approach our troubles with fear, let’s look at them with interest – be curious about ourselves, how we came to be who/how we are. Learning to be curious about ourselves and the challenges we face, finding humor and grace along the way, allows us to be less judgmental and less ashamed of ourselves/our struggles – moving forward with hope and resilience.

My name is Nicole, and I have worked in the mental health field for 15 years. As a therapist, I specialize in working with depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, grief/loss, trauma and more. Together we can change the way you process feelings and emotions. You can learn to have a more positive outlook on life. I will work with you to help you achieve your goals using a person-centered approach. Every person can change and grow.

Accepting new clients! You just want to know that you can walk into a room and don't have to play the "pronoun game", pretend you only have one partner, or have to listen to someone minimize your relationship, sexuality, or gender dysphoria. I am here, above all, to be your biggest advocate. I aim to create a radically accepting space to confront, question, and explore what makes you who you are. I’m not afraid to talk about the hard things. Sex, intimacy, relationships, trauma… This is your space to let it all out. Everyone is welcome here. Judgement isn't tolerated. Arriving with your real, raw, and heavy baggage is celebrated.

You're likely here because your life isn't quite where you'd like it to be. You feel isolated, disconnected and frustrated. You're struggling with relationships. You're finding yourself reliving old patterns that are causing you pain. You've been trying to solve everything on your own but you're feeling stuck. You really need a space where you can talk through ALL of the jumbled up thoughts and feelings inside, because you're starting to feel like a pressure cooker. "I am a failure." "I have nothing to offer." "I can't change." ...Do these sound familiar?

Are you looking for a therapist to get you unstuck on your journey through life? Are you hitting roadblocks on your path to your emotional well-being? Do you need help or assistance resolving obstacles at this point in your life? Or do you need to be heard or find your voice?

It can be difficult to take the initial step to contact a therapist. I want you to feel comfortable and supported.

I work best with couples who wish to address and explore issues related to emotion regulation, conflict and distress, personality difficulties and communication. In my practice, I have seen depressed and bipolar adults and people with personality issues or disorders for over 15 years.

Making that first call feels like failing. You have "no time for therapy"--you are already spread thin. You've tried everything, but nothing seems to be working. And even when it does, it's only for a moment. You're ready to feel like you are thriving instead of merely surviving. It's a little scary to think about diving into the things weighing you down though, right? Ask yourself this (and be honest!): "Can I keep going like I am now? And if I do, what will that look like?" Change occurs when--despite the discomfort and not quite knowing how you'll get there--all you know is that you can't keep doing what you're doing. I can help.

I believe all humans have a universal need to feel safe, secure and protected. In childhood, we didn't always have those needs provided to us consistently or at all. A variety of symptoms can result when our safety is violated or threatened, and these experiences create "wounds" that do not often heal themselves, especially if they occur in childhood. If traditional talk therapy has not worked for you in your quest to improve your symptoms or and you feel you need to dig deeper, I can help with that.
