Therapist

Virtual • Pennsylvania


I enjoy working with individuals, couples, and families to resolve personal and relationship challenges, while developing healthy coping strategies and lifestyle habits that lead to a better quality of life. A central focus of my work is helping clients access, understand, and manage their emotions.

I support people navigating relational conflict, job-related stress, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, shame, guilt, fear, grief, ADHD and trauma. My training and personal and professional experience have equipped me to address matters of the heart while incorporating faith-based interventions that support holistic healing when appropriate.

I hold a MA in Marriage and Family Therapy from Liberty University. My approach focuses on seeing the whole person rather than just symptoms.

Bella Peduzzi

Therapist

Virtual • Pennsylvania


As a Professional Counselor, it's my goal to help you feel respected and create a safe environment for you to share whatever you need to during therapy. It is my intention to empower you, strengthen your individuality, help to strengthen your belief that you have great worth, and that you can overcome traumatic events and memories. We are more than the thoughts we have that we're ashamed of, we're more than the worst moments of our lives, much more than our mistakes, and in my practice, I respect the courage it takes to be vulnerable, honest, and open to new ways of thinking.

I work with adults on issues such as self-esteem, relationships, trauma, depression, anxiety, and addiction. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and I am trained as an Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapist. EMDR is an alternative method to talk-therapy that has been proven to be effective in resolving Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.

Life can be messy; it's okay to feel lost, stuck in a rut, or starting over. I appreciate the courage it takes to ask for help and invite someone into your fears and perceived flaws. If you would like to schedule an appointment or ask questions about therapy, please contact me. I'm honored to be invited to share in your healing process. Let change begin!

Laura Bauder

Therapist

Virtual • Pennsylvania


I like to tell new and potential clients that I'm a human just like you, the only difference is my education in counseling. I approach all sessions with a genuine curiosity, rational thought process, and the ability to view a situation through multiple lenses. I can tell you all about the alphabet soup (credentials) behind my name, but what I know to be most important is the relationship you build with your therapist, I hope to be that person for you.

I've been told I’m easy to sit with and talk to. I believe that while therapy can be hard work, it can also be a time of funny reflection. Having a positive therapeutic relationship is a big part of what heals us, and it is my desire that we can sit together and laugh, experience tears, and talk openly about your greatest concerns and pains.

If you’re thinking about starting therapy, please feel free to request a complementary 15 minute consultation where we can talk and see if we might be a good fit for each other. I have experience working with adults experiencing grief and loss, addictions, ADHD, and trauma. Even if you’re not sure therapy is right for you, maybe a free consultation.

PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING, thank you.

I am a board-certified Psychiatrist (medical doctor) providing virtual care throughout NY and PA. I taper medications. This means most of my patients want to safely reduce or ultimately stop taking psychiatric medications, and I guide them through that process safely and at their own pace. I include therapy in my 30-min follow up sessions, though do not offer weekly 1-hour therapy sessions. Many of my patients also work with a therapist.
