Virtual • East York, PA


I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in PA. I have worked in the field for seven years and have been trained in various therapeutic modalities, including TF-CBT, CBT, ERP, BFRB, ACT, Motivational interviewing, CPT, and PE. I specialize in trauma and anxiety disorders.

I unexpectedly began the journey to become a therapist when I accepted a job as a client coordinator at a non-profit organization that worked exclusively with childhood sexual abuse survivors. I quickly fell in love with the clients and supportive staff and decided to return to school to earn my master's degree in clinical social work. I was a single mom and 40 years old when this new adventure began. It was the best decision of my life. I am humbled to support my clients as they share their most vulnerable selves. Watching positive change happen in their lives as we work together is an immeasurable gift.

Debra Bennett

Debra Bennett

Therapist

Virtual • Pennsylvania


After decades in healthcare, including years in hospice and palliative care, I learned something that shapes everything about how I work: the most powerful thing I can offer is simply to be present. Not to fix, not to explain away, and not to pretend I fully understand what you are going through. But to stay with you in whatever you are carrying, without rushing, without judgment, for as long as it takes.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Pennsylvania. My years in hospice prepared me to hold space for people in the most difficult moments of their lives, and that experience is what I bring to therapy now. Whether you are managing a chronic illness, living with chronic pain, carrying trauma, grieving a loss, or burning out from caregiving, you do not have to make it more manageable for the people around you. You just have to show up.

One small note: I have a chronic pain condition myself, so you may see me reposition during our sessions. I mention it upfront so you can focus on yourself rather than wondering.

I have spent most of my professional life helping people manage stress, burnout, trauma, change, and the general emotional chaos that comes with being human. With a background spanning clinical counseling, higher education, leadership development, special education, and mental health advocacy, I bring both deep expertise and genuine relatability to the therapy process. I have presented nationally on topics like compassion fatigue, resilience, and trauma, but believe some of the best therapeutic work still happens in simple, honest conversations where people finally feel heard.
