As a bilingual and bicultural therapist providing services in both English and Spanish, I offer a warm, supportive, and culturally responsive space where adults can feel heard, understood, and empowered. I work with individuals experiencing trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, stress, and major life transitions.

I believe that healing begins within a safe and trusting therapeutic relationship. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to your unique needs.

Hi! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Virginia, and I’m passionate about supporting adults on their journey toward healing and well-being. With a master’s degree from Virginia Commonwealth University and over seven years of experience, I’ve had the privilege of helping individuals navigate challenges like anxiety, depression, and other life stressors.

A peaceful place to be heard, understood, and restored. Rooted in wisdom. Guided by compassion.

I’m a double board-certified Nurse Practitioner providing thoughtful, evidence-based mental health care that integrates both medical and therapeutic approaches. I earned my Doctor of Nursing Practice from Temple University in 2019, with a focus in Adult-Gerontology Primary Care, and later completed a post-master’s certification in Family Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing in 2024.

My clinical background spans the full continuum of care across the lifespan. I have worked extensively with military service members and veterans, gaining a deep understanding of trauma, resilience, and the complexities of balancing mental health with identity, work, and relationships. I also have experience in inpatient child and adolescent psychiatry, where I supported youth and families through acute mental health needs. In addition, I serve as the primary psychiatric provider for a large assisted living community, caring for nearly 450 geriatric residents across multiple levels of support. These experiences allow me to approach care with a broad, nuanced perspective across all stages of life.

Life can feel overwhelming, and reaching out for help is often the hardest step. I'm Jackie, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with more than 40 years of nursing experience. Throughout my career, I've cared for individuals and families in a variety of healthcare settings, gaining a deep appreciation for the connection between physical and emotional health. That experience shaped my approach to psychiatric care and continues to guide the way I support each person. You'll find a welcoming, judgment-free space where you can feel heard, understood, and respected. Virtual appointments are available for individuals throughout Pennsylvania.

At my core, I am a humanist, existentialist, and a proponent of unconditional self-compassion. I have a strong skill set working with older teens and young adults but love working with all humans in general. Other therapeutic areas of strength would be trauma, personality disorders, gender and sexuality, parenting, relationships, Depression, Anxiety, Bipolar Disorder and ADHD.

Loss-whether it’s anticipated or has already happened-changes everything. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Certified Grief Professional and Certified Grief Educator, I specialize in helping adults move through grief, caregiving exhaustion, anxiety, and depression with compassion and support. In our work together, you will find space to slow down, feel seen, be heard, and reconnect with a sense of meaning and hope, even when life feels uncertain

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.

Welcome to Thurber Counseling! My name is Liz and I have a background in mental health and school counseling.

Gentle, Intuitive & Reflective Is Who I AM!

Hello future client, I'm Yvette. I approach therapy with curiosity, empathy, and a deep respect for each person’s story. My personality is naturally reflective and intuitive, and I create a space that feels calm, intentional, and emotionally grounding. Clients often share that they feel understood and emotionally held in our work together.

Therapy with me is not about rushing or forcing change—it’s about building awareness, strengthening emotional boundaries, and learning how to care for yourself without guilt. I work with adults who are navigating emotional fatigue, disappointment, anxiety, or relational stress and are ready for a more compassionate, values-aligned way of healing.

I love what I do, and I know why I do it. Since 2007 my focus has been coming along side of people and assisting them with challenges they face in life to become the most authentic and genuine person they were meant to be. In my own journey I've come to accept and appreciate the gifts I've been given, even if they're seemingly unrelated. I love my work as a therapist and I will always be passionate about performing music. How the two coexist within me is the journey I'm on. My focus has been in becoming a better therapist each day ... but I also know I'll never stop playing guitar and performing music, it's part of who I am.

For more than 30 years, I have been helping children, adults, and families navigate life’s challenges, heal from difficult experiences, and build stronger, healthier relationships. I am passionate about working with individuals who have experienced trauma, significant life stressors, anxiety, grief, relationship difficulties, and major life transitions.

I believe healing happens when people feel truly seen, heard, and understood. My goal is to create a safe, supportive environment where clients can explore their experiences, discover their strengths, and develop a greater sense of peace, resilience, and self-confidence.

I earned my Master of Social Work from Temple University and my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Catawba College. Throughout my career, I have remained committed to meeting each client where they are and helping them create meaningful, lasting change.
