Welcome to my bio! I have been a certified and licensed therapist since 2011-I am currently licensed in PA, SC and NC. I LOVE what I do and have the best clients in the world! My favorite clients are those that had a bad run with a weird therapist (the hesitaters), those who "aren't sure therapy really works (the naysayers)and specialty populations like first responders (the savers), couples (the lovers), and LGBTQ (the gayer's) (makes it crazy during political seasons haha!). My clients call me "funny," "authentic," and "like a professional friend."

I'm a therapist who specializes in trauma. I'm familiar with symptoms of anxiety and depression both in clinical practice and from my own lived experience. I am a queer, neurodivergent therapist who specializes in PTSD, LGBTQ+ issues, and empowering women. I want to give my clients the vocabulary to put their feelings to words and heal old wounds. I like to focus on problem-solving and teaching coping skills to address the daily discomfort you feel. I graduated with honors from a Master's Clinical Mental Health Counseling program and have 5 years of clinical experience.

Kristen English

Kristen English

Psychologist

Virtual • Pennsylvania


I am a Pennsylvania-licensed psychologist with 23 years of counseling experience with adults of all ages, from late-adolescence and across the lifespan.

My practice focuses on helping individuals develop personally meaningful ways of navigating anxiety and depression, grief and loss, trauma and PTSD, time-of-life transitions, and identity development. These therapeutic partnerships often involve identity-affirming explorations of racial, ethnic, LGBTQIA, and neuro-diversity matters within clients’ lives.


Helping clients feels safe, regarded, and at ease... I work hard to understand what each individual needs from me to feel these things at the forefront of our relationship.

I feel really confident in my empathic attunement toward clients as I authentically connect with each individual. I prioritize creating a shared space of sincerity as clients begin telling me their stories.

And what an honor it is, helping clients share their narratives in a manner that highlights their courage and resilience, as well as their yearning and needs.

As we begin to explore and understand all of these things, we hone in on each client’s inner resources and external supports — identifying these things and figuring out how each individual client can feel most empowered in themselves.

Getting help should feel like something you can actually do. For a lot of families, insurance is the part that makes it feel impossible. I went into private practice specifically so I could take that off the table. I work primarily with children, adolescents, and families. The families I see are usually navigating something that is just hard: a kid who is struggling in school, a teenager who is shutting down, parents who are not sure how to reach them. Sometimes it is a big transition. Sometimes it is the slow buildup of stress that nobody quite had words for yet. I have been doing this for 17 years. Most of that time was spent in clinic settings, where I saw a lot of people and had to move fast. I learned a great deal in those environments. I also learned that real therapeutic progress requires time, consistency, and a relationship where the client actually feels known. That is what I am building in private practice. My approach is direct and warm. I am not interested in jargon. I want to understand what is actually going on and work with you on what will actually help. Sessions are fully telehealth, which means no commute, more scheduling flexibility, and care that fits into your actual life. I look forward to seeing if we are a good fit.

When I began seeing a therapist, I realized just how much I needed an outlet to process hardships in my life and to feel genuinely heard, and this is exactly what I want to provide to clients who come to see me. As I have advanced in my own self-discovery and identity exploration, I have become interested in helping others in the LGBTQIA+, neurodivergent (specifically autism and ADHD), and disability communities on their own journeys. I believe that having lived experience related to my specialties is a fundamental component to the care I can provide.

I became a therapist because I find people genuinely fascinating, specifically how we each experience ourselves, life, and reality, and how we approach living – our inner process. That curiosity has driven more than 20 years of clinical & spiritual work with adults navigating trauma, sexuality, spirituality, expanded states of consciousness, depression, anxiety, identity, grief, men's issues, and major life transitions. Currently, I run my private practice while also directing and teaching in a graduate Counseling Psychology program.
