Grief counselors and therapists in Allentown, PA

I work with adolescents and adults who want more than just healing and coping-I help folks connect the dots for how to live a more successful and joyful life. About half of my practice is focused on performance psychology, while the other half focuses on overcoming depression, trauma, and anxiety. Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, driven, and curious. They're not only looking to feel better-they want to know why they feel the way they do. As I often say: descriptions can validate, but explanations heal. Together, we connect the dots between your experiences, patterns, and goals in order to thrive.

I am a warm, kind, non-judgmental listener that has been through a lot of adversity in my life. Due to the hard times I have struggled to overcome I work hard to show both understanding and compassion.

Hello! I am a licensed professional counselor with several decades of experience in the mental health field as both a clinician and a clinical supervisor. I have done extensive work in a variety of mental health settings including outpatient, IOP, PHP, inpatient and residential care. I primarily utilize a combination of Solution Focused Therapy and Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy to support my clients in using their inherent strengths to address a variety of challenging issues. I enjoy working with adolescents and adults using a highly individualized approach to treatment. I have expertise in addressing trauma, as well as anxiety disorders, mood disorders, psychotic disorders, self-injurious behaviors, grief and loss, family issues, health concerns and life transitions. I have a calm approach and utilize humor to create a warm, relaxed environment for her clients.

Outside of the office, I enjoy spending time with my family, including watching my two college-age children play soccer. I love to read and go to the beach. I have a much beloved dog and enjoy the outdoors. In my spare time, I enjoy doing home renovations, landscaping and gardening projects and taking care of my succulent collection.

Hi, I'm Paulina. I'm a U.S. Army veteran and Pennsylvania native who returned home to earn my Master of Social Work and pursue my passion for helping others as a therapist. I enjoy creating a space where people can openly discuss life's challenges, including grief, loss, anxiety, and depression. My therapy style is practical and solution-focused, with an emphasis on finding what works for you. I see therapy as a collaborative process of learning, experimenting, and adjusting along the way, helping you build tools and strategies that support meaningful, lasting change. When I'm not working, you'll find me cooking, baking, exercising, or spoiling my cat.

My core belief is that healing happens when we reconnect our minds and our bodies. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Somatic Therapy to help you uncover the deeply ingrained, harmful patterns that may be holding you back. By understanding these dynamics, we can work together to reframe negative cycles into intentional, more supportive choices.

I believe every person has the capacity to grow, heal, and create meaningful change in their life. Sometimes, we just need a safe place to slow down, feel understood, and find our way forward. My goal is to create that space—a place where you can be honest about what you’re experiencing without fear of judgment, and where you can feel supported as you begin to understand yourself in new ways.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I provide compassionate, evidence-based therapy to individuals across the lifespan, from early childhood through older adulthood. I’ve had the privilege of working with clients from age 5 through 90, and I believe every stage of life brings its own challenges, strengths, and opportunities for growth.

I don’t believe therapy is about fixing what is “wrong” with you. It’s about understanding what you’ve been through, recognizing the strengths you already carry, and creating space for something different. I work collaboratively with each person I meet, tailoring our work to their needs, goals, and lived experience. My hope is that, together, we can help you feel more grounded, more connected to yourself, and more confident in your ability to navigate whatever comes next.

When working with clients, I try to create a safe, non-judgmental space that will allow them to honestly share what is going on. I believe that our work together is a partnership, so I respect your feelings, beliefs, opinions and process. I am versatile in evidence-based practice methods, including EMDR and Motivational Interviewing, to help bring you clarity and relief.

She works with clients of all ages and treats client with mood , addiction medicine and various mental health disorders include but not limited to bipolar disorder, depression, ADHD, schizophrenia, psychotic disorders, anxiety, panic disorder and sleep disturbance.

I specialize in helping adults and young adults manage anxiety disorders, panic attacks, chronic stress, and burnout using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and other evidence-based approaches. I also support clients experiencing depression, trauma-related symptoms, and life transitions that feel overwhelming or hard to manage alone.

Many of the people I work with are functioning well but internally overwhelmed—dealing with constant worry, racing thoughts, physical symptoms of anxiety, or a persistent sense of being “on edge.” Others notice anxiety affecting their sleep, focus, relationships, or ability to relax and enjoy life.
