Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 17 mi away • Elizabethtown, PA


Welcome! I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with over 9 years of clinical experience. Both my graduate degree (Marriage, Couples, and Family Counseling) and my professional background are rooted in working with families. While I prioritized working with at risk children and adolescents, my clinical focus shifted to working with adults 18+ who struggle with anxiety, panic, and symptoms of OCD. Additionally, I have a special interest in working with mother's in any stage of parenting as well as those who are seeking to heal childhood wounds, relational trauma, and break free from shame, perfectionism, inner critic and self-doubt. Embarking on your counseling journey can be intimidating and I believe you are taking a courageous step towards health and healing.

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 an Addiction 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. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or substance use and is in a crisis, immediately reach out to:

* 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — call or text 988 * SAMHSA National Helpline — 1-800-662-HELP (4357), free, confidential, 24/7 * Crisis Text Line — text HOME to 741741

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
