Online Therapy in Pennsylvania
Online therapy can make it easier to access support without adding travel, commuting, or another appointment location to your week.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania and provide virtual therapy to adults who are physically located in Pennsylvania at the time of their session.
Therapy services are provided through Healthstead Psychiatry, which manages scheduling, insurance participation, billing, and related administrative needs.
Therapy From Wherever
You Are in Pennsylvania
Telehealth allows therapy to take place through a secure video platform while you remain in your own environment.
For some people, that means joining from home. For others, it may mean finding a private space during a workday or scheduling around family, work, or other responsibilities.
Online therapy can be especially helpful when traffic, transportation, work schedules, caregiving responsibilities, or distance from an office make regular in-person appointments more difficult.
You do not need to live near Philadelphia or Bensalem in order to work with me virtually. As long as you are physically located in Pennsylvania during the session, telehealth may be an option.
Concerns I Work With
I work primarily with adults and may support concerns including:
-
Anxiety and overthinking
-
Boundaries and self-esteem
-
Difficulty coping with change
-
Recurring patterns that feel difficult to break
Some people come to therapy with a specific diagnosis or concern they already understand. Others know they are struggling but are not yet sure how to describe what is happening.
You do not need to have everything figured out before reaching out.
What Online Therapy Can Look Like
Online therapy can include the same kinds of conversation, reflection, skill-building, and therapeutic work that take place during in-person sessions.
Depending on what you need, sessions may include:
-
Exploring patterns and experiences
-
Learning practical coping skills
-
Understanding emotions and reactions
-
Working through relationship concerns
-
Identifying triggers
-
Examining thoughts and beliefs
-
Building healthier boundaries
-
Processing grief or life changes
-
Strengthening emotional regulation
-
Exploring ambivalence about change
-
Understanding how past experiences may affect the present
The focus can shift over time as your needs, goals, and circumstances change.
My Approach to Therapy
My work is grounded in a person-centered approach and may incorporate elements of:
I do not expect one therapy model to fit every person or every situation.
Different approaches may be useful at different points in treatment, and therapy can be adjusted based on what seems most helpful for you.
Online Therapy for
Addiction & Recovery
Addiction and recovery have been a significant part of my clinical work throughout my career.
Therapy may include support around cravings, relapse prevention, motivation, co-occurring mental health concerns, relationships, shame, identity, and adjusting to life in recovery.
Recovery does not have to follow one specific path. Therapy can help you better understand your patterns, strengthen supports, and explore what sustainable recovery looks like for you.
Online Therapy for
Anxiety, Mood &
Emotional Regulation
Anxiety, depression, mood changes, and difficulty regulating emotions can affect relationships, work, sleep, decision-making, and daily functioning.
Sometimes you may understand intellectually what is happening and still find it difficult to respond differently in the moment.
Therapy can help identify patterns, understand triggers and contributing factors, strengthen coping strategies, and create more space between an emotional reaction and what happens next.
Online Therapy for Relationships
& Life Changes
Therapy can also provide space to explore communication, boundaries, trust, recurring relationship patterns, grief, career changes, identity shifts, and other transitions.
Life changes do not have to be negative to feel difficult.
Even positive transitions can bring uncertainty, pressure, loss, or questions about what comes next. Therapy can provide a place to sort through those experiences without having to have an immediate answer.
Is Online Therapy
Right for Everyone?
Telehealth works well for many people, but it is not necessarily the best fit for every situation.
Some people prefer being physically present in a therapy office. Others may not have enough privacy at home or may benefit from a level of structure, monitoring, or support that is difficult to provide virtually.
We can talk about whether telehealth appears appropriate for your needs and whether another type or level of care may be more appropriate when necessary.

Not Sure If We’re a Good Fit?
Choosing a therapist is personal. If you would like to talk before scheduling, I offer a complimentary 15-minute phone consultation.
This brief conversation gives you an opportunity to ask questions, tell me a little about what you are looking for, and get a sense of whether working together may feel like a good fit.
