Cara Blouin

Cara Blouin

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Philadelphia, PA


There are people who the rest of the world thinks are doing great (or were, until some life-altering change occurred)—people who are giving so much and trying so hard. But somehow it’s never enough.

If this describes you, let's talk. My clients tend to be people who care for others, like teachers, activists, nurses and clergy. However, I also work with a lot of people who are just overwhelmed by the state of the world.

I welcome those who are skeptical about therapy. It is very important to me to be affirming of all genders and expressions, and to be an active anti-racist ally.

Paula Crawford

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Philadelphia, PA


Hello, My name is Paula Crawford, I am a licensed professional counselor, My belief as a therapist is that each individual has the right and responsibility to live a life in wholeness! Yes, life always is lif-ing and sometimes we need an objective partner/facilitator to join on the journey. Sometimes, we can only make sense of our choices and decisions through self-reflection. Other times, we need support with healing. Therapy can be that space. Please feel free to review my bio and if you feel we could be a good fit, reach out to me.

Wishing you a blessed and productive day today!

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Lancaster

Searching for therapists in Lancaster starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Some Lancaster therapists focus on anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, trauma, or major life changes. Others may specialize in specific approaches, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or eye movement desensitization and reprocessing. As you compare options for therapy in Lancaster, PA, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, training, and approach match what you want to work on.

In a smaller city like Lancaster, the number of nearby in-person appointments may vary by neighborhood, schedule, and specialty. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Pennsylvania. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios can also help you understand their communication style, session structure, and experience with concerns similar to yours.

Therapy in Lancaster can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your out-of-pocket estimate before you book. Headway helps you find licensed therapists who match your needs and are accepting new patients, so you can review profiles, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready. You can also enter your insurance details on Headway to check coverage and see your estimated costs for therapists available in Lancaster.

If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy.
