Our locations in Lancaster, Hershey, Lehigh Valley (Emmaus), Lancaster Downtown, Lebanon, York, and Pittsburgh, offer in-person mental health therapy to people aged six+. Online therapy is available across PA. Seek our care if you are struggling with relationship issues, feeling anxiety or depression, identity/culture, trauma, or are unsure how to navigate grief, maternal struggles, LGBT+, or life transitions.

Life is a gift, but sometimes we find ourselves feeling trapped in unhealthy behaviors, unexpected and difficult life circumstances, and seemingly impossible situations. These stressful life events make it hard to experience hope which is so important in life. Regret's from our past story can prevent us from living well in the present and lead to fears about the future. Unwanted patterns in negative thinking and behavior do not have to control your life. Difficulties can overshadow all the good in life and distort our ability to move towards growth.

Seeking therapy is a powerful choice of courage and hope. It’s driven by your tenacious belief that the person you are now and the circumstances you’re in are not the final story. I view therapy as a freeing process of telling your unique story of being human in a context that is non-judgmental and self-curious. Putting words to your story opens a space between you and your struggle so you can step outside the fog of your suffering and address what keeps you from your best life.
