Hello! I am a nurse practitioner (NP) who is experienced in both Psychiatry and Primary Care. Before graduating with my MSN and Adult Primary Care NP program in 2015, I was a RN for 9 years in the hospital setting. While working in Psychiatry starting in 2022, I decided to pursue my Post-Master’s certification in Psychiatric Mental Health NP and graduated in April of 2024.
Hello! I have been practicing as a Licensed Professional Counselor for over 10 years following a fun career in the theater world. I combine clinical knowledge and skill with more creative techniques to offer a personalized experience to each of my clients. I primarily work with those who want to gain insight to their behavior and relationships, overcome anxiety or depression symptoms, and develop a stronger sense of self and confidence.
Life is full of complexities, ups, and downs. Whether you’re navigating challenges with relationships, anxiety, or the exhaustion of life’s stressors, I am confident we can work together to help you find peace and healing.With over 15 years of experience in the mental health field, I bring a deep and well-rounded understanding of the challenges individuals and families face throughout their lives. I have worked extensively with children, adolescents, and adults across various levels of care. These experiences allow me to meet clients with insight, flexibility, and a strong appreciation for each person’s unique story.
I'm a licensed clinical social worker with over 35 years in social services, the last 9 as a licensed clinician. My background spans direct practice, public health, domestic violence services, and end-of-life care. I hold a Master of Social Work and a Master of Public Health. My clinical work draws from Gestalt therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy, and other evidence-based approaches. I also do end-of-life doula work.
My practice, Empowered Transitions Therapy, is built around the belief that transitions don't just require coping strategies. They require honest reflection, real support, and sometimes a complete rethinking of what you want your life to look like going forward.
I work with adults and couples navigating grief and loss, caregiver burnout, life transitions, domestic violence recovery, and relational conflict. I specialize in complicated grief and work with clients whose losses have been layered, unacknowledged, or unresolved for years. Much of my work centers on women who are in the middle of reinventing themselves and aren't sure yet what that looks like.
I'm direct without being cold. I ask hard questions and I sit with you in the answers. If you've been managing everything on your own and you're tired of it, this might be the right place.
My name is Angela Dobrzynski (doh-BRIN-skee), and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania, with over 19 years of experience in supporting adults as they navigate stress, anxiety, and periods of feeling stuck. I specialize in helping clients to identify obstacles and co-create actionable solutions, drawing from cognitive-behavioral and solution-focused techniques to foster meaningful growth and change.
As a psychotherapist, I believe personal growth happens when people have a safe place to explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences. I work with individuals 18+. I have been a counselor for 9 years and opened up my private practice over 6 years ago. I am here to guide you on your journey to healing and self-discovery.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Allentown, PA
Searching for therapists in Allentown starts with knowing what kind of support you want from care. Therapists can help with concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, work stress, and life transitions. As you compare Allentown therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties, therapy approach, and experience match your needs. Provider bios can also show whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy.
In a smaller city like Allentown, local therapist availability can vary by neighborhood, schedule, and specialty. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in Pennsylvania. You may also want to compare appointment times, whether a therapist is accepting new clients, session format, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand how each therapist describes their style, what a first session may look like, and whether their approach fits what you want from care.
Therapy in Allentown can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your session costs and understand what you may pay before you book. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, view estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront, and book directly when you’re ready.
