A highly experienced psychotherapist, he remains compassionate to others and completely focused on patient health and well-being. Dr. Ted Dorfman combines science and compassion to treat and help his patients. He holds 3 academic degrees in Psychology, and has practiced as a licensed psychologist for decades. At the college level he graduated "summa cum laude" and at the doctoral level he graduated "with distinction".
He enjoys these pastimes: helping others, reading nearly all genres, cooking, children, and banana splits. He is an honorably discharged US Army veteran, married with an adult son, and soon expecting a first grandchild. He's pleased with positive relations with his four brothers and three sisters. You will be able to tell he likes and respects people in his life.
He considers it an honor to help you.
Hello! I'm so happy you stopped by! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Pennsylvania. I have 13 years of experience in the mental health field and I have also recently completed doctoral training in clinical psychology. I specialize in psychodynamic therapy and have a great deal of experience in working with people with eating disorders, anxiety, depression, relationship problems and concerns and personality concerns/disorders.
I have over a decade of experience working with people as they navigate life transitions. I understand struggling and feeling overwhelmed, and I believe that adding support and guidance can help alleviate life's stressors.
I've worked multiple years as a therapist in a community mental health center, a partial hospitalization program, and a nursing home. I try to understand where you are starting and where you are trying to go. I believe that there is value in humor, storytelling, and understanding different perspectives.
Hi! I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with a master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Harrisburg
Searching for therapists in Harrisburg starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want support with. Many people look for therapy in Harrisburg, PA for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, stress, or major life changes. As you compare Harrisburg therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy styles, and experience with the concerns that matter to you. A therapist’s bio can also show how they structure sessions, communicate, and help people set goals for care.
Harrisburg is a smaller city, so local in-person openings may vary by neighborhood, schedule, and therapist specialty. Virtual therapy can add more options across Pennsylvania while still letting you choose a licensed therapist who fits your needs. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare approach, focus areas, and fit in one place.
Therapy in Harrisburg can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway makes it easier to find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose from therapists accepting new patients. You can browse profiles, review availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
