Teletherapy for Pennsylvania

We currently are offering virtual client sessions and in person sessions. I believe that every individual has the capacity to develop a full life based on healthy communication and utilizing their strengths. Having a space where you can speak honestly and openly without judgement is crucial to healing. I use a strength based, emotion focused treatment array to help you be the best you can be! I have a passion for working with clients processing trauma. My second passion is couples counseling. We offer Ketamine Assisted Therapy as well.

I provide a safe, inclusive environment for clients to "Come As You Are" and build on the existing strengths that exist in each person. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with my Master's and undergraduate degrees in Social Work. I also have High Honors from the Phi Alpha Honor Society for my study in the field. I have over 14 years of experience working in the human services fields. I am Certified in Sexual Abuse Trauma by the American Academy of Experts in Traumatic Stress. I am EMDR trained and provide intensive EMDR sessions. I combine my knowledge of trauma and EMDR.

Hello, my name is Cheryl Rittfeldt. I am a multilingual, Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from the University of Gothenburg, Sweden. I believe that healing is a collective venture that requires honest caring without judgment. I cooperatively assist clients in identifying their goals. Rather than adopting one methodology for all individuals and issues, I gather from a variety of methods to generate a suited strategy. I have experience working with young children, adolescents, teens, couples, and adults. Hola, Yo hablo Espanol

Welcome everyone! My name is Khalilah Yadullah. I am a psychotherapist. I believe in providing each person with a safe and judgement-free space, when in a therapeutic session. I use techniques from different therapeutic schools of thought to assist in the therapeutic journey with each person. We can talk in office, online or over the phone. I understand flexibility in our busy lives is needed. LET US TAKE THIS JOURNEY TOGETHER.

Being a human is hard! Let's work together to help you live your best life: Whatever that means and looks like for you. I believe in the therapeutic process of discovery, understanding, healing and ultimately creating meaning in one's life and circumstances. As your therapist, my goal is to create a comfortable space to work towards your goals. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor experienced working with adults, teens, couples and families struggling with a variety of concerns including: stress/anxiety, depression, life transitions, career changes, emotion management, self-esteem, relationships, women's issues and so on.

Your most well-intentioned friend or internet guru might have you believe that fixing your problems is a quick process that involves simple mantras and just doing things differently. In contrast, I believe that it is possible in time and in the context of developing a genuine and safe therapeutic relationship, for you to feel understood, cared for and free to express yourself while creating change. My clinical experience lies in helping those through relationship troubles, uncomfortable and painful feelings, addiction to substances, feelings of depression and anxiety, or just a quiet sense that something is not right.

Everyone has struggles in life especially with these isolating times during the pandemic. I believe we can benefit from having a empathetic, understanding person to discuss these stresses and challenges with. An important part of the therapeutic relationship is finding the right therapist for each individual. While establishing an engaging patient client relationship, I can provide tools to assist and manage these challenges.

At times, people just want to have a conversation and we put off going to counseling, because honestly we tell ourselves that this other thing is just a little bit more important, a bit more pressing. We forget to invest in ourselves. Life is tough, there is no doubt about that; but why go through it alone. Let me be that person for you to aid you through those tough times or I can simply be that someone that you talk with.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor my goal is to help you become your best self. If you are in need of support with past traumatic issues I have worked for over 10 years helping people who have suffered many traumatic events. In addition, I have worked with many families to help them and their children when it comes to parenting, adjusting to separation, divorce or blending your family effectively after a divorce. I also work with adults and children who suffer from anxiety, depression, ADHD, self-harm, mood disorders, and gender identity issues.

What would a life free of impairing anxiety and depression mean to you? What would it mean for your relationships, your career and your happiness? As a Licensed Professional Counselor, and a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, I take a warm, engaging approach to therapy. During your sessions, your voice will be heard and your journey will be respected. I tailor treatment to each patient’s unique needs using cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, EMDR, and other evidence-based techniques. My clients say this approach gives them the support they need to change their lives and find the joy they have been missing.

Being heard is a universal human need. We all have a story or perspective that impacts our behaviors and decisions. Whether you have trauma in your past, experienced ongoing depression and anxiety, or are feeling confused in a life transition, having a qualified professional genuinely hear your perspective can be empowering! I strongly believe in validating the human experience and treating you with compassion and respect. I have worked with clients from many walks of life and have been honored to be part of their healing progress.

For too long, you've felt overwhelmed & burned out with what's happening in your life. You might be seeing it at home: you are feeling irritated with your partner and family & you don't feel good enough with your part of household responsibilities. Perhaps it’s at work: you can’t concentrate & it’s harder to keep up with all of your responsibilities like you used to. Maybe you are experiencing tension within your body & it is hard to relax. You are suffering & you are not sure how to get through it. No matter how these things are showing up for you, I am here to help you feel heard & to build the skills to get you through this!

Feeling stuck and wondering why? Or what you can do about it? Let’s work together to identify your goals and create a path towards them. Along the way we will work on self-acceptance, self-love and developing an understanding of all spheres of yourself. My ideal client struggles to find their words, has difficulties describing what’s happening to them, and often needs validation and acceptance. All stressors, regardless of intensity, can leave us feeling powerless and hopeless as they accumulate. Sometimes people fall short and are not sure why, working with a therapist can help you understand what might be getting in your way.

Psychology for YOU. If you are experiencing a problem or something troubles you in your mind, this is the moment to address it. The opportunity for you to express yourself and receive professional attention is in your hands now. If we work together we can reach your goals. “Don't be pushed around by the fears in your mind. Be led by the dreams in your heart.” ― Roy T. Bennett

I am a board certified counselor who strives to give personalized care to each person who walks through my door. I understand that when you decide to come to counseling, you need to feel understood and for the process to be as comfortable as possible. I believe counseling can often help you grow to live your best life. When there are so many things we can't control in the world, therapy can help you learn where you do have control - your thoughts, feelings and behaviors. I have an eclectic approach to counseling and have a particular interest in treating anxiety, depression, life transitions, trauma and fostering personal growth.

I consider it such an honor to journey alongside people as they work towards wholeness and hope. Through consistent patience and exploration, new pathways are formed in our minds as we find ourselves viewing the past, present, and future in new ways. I would love to join you in your process. If you want to share your story and your goals, I can hold space for you; help you learn about yourself, your patterns, and your scripts; examine your choices with you to determine how they help and hurt you based on your values; and utilize EMDR therapy to address trauma and other distressing experiences.

This is the first step to becoming a new you. Life can often be overwhelming and filled with obstacles. Making changes is not always easy, but it is possible to overcome the negative feelings in order to reach your full potential. Past and present issues can cause stress, anxiety and depression if not dealt with properly. At PA Horizons Counseling, we can provide an opportunity for you to achieve the life you want. Our team of therapists aim to guide you through your journey in discovering your true self. We believe therapy is essential to recovery. Call today to set up a free consultation and to discuss how we can help you.

The journey of life can sometimes be trying, difficult, and uncomfortable, but I believe that by working together, you can open new pathways and attain your goals for a happier future. I look forward to working with you to explore the past, create meaning in the present and embark on an exhilarating future.

Too many life stressors may lead to unfocused work and/or frequent "crisis management" interventions. In collaboration, we identify presenting issues, prioritize problems, and clarify treatment goals for positive changes. I offer brief treatment (8-12 sessions) and long-term therapy (6 months+). For brief treatment, the average number of sessions needed is typically 8-12. For complex and persistent issues, more sessions might be needed. By maintaining congruence, genuineness, and unconditional warm regard, I build a trusting and supportive relationship with you.
