Welcome to Thurber Counseling! My name is Liz and I have a background in mental health and school counseling.
As a licensed therapist, I can provide clear guidance towards healing for women and children suffering the effects of traumatic wounds and other life challenges. I have combined years as an educator with rich training and experience in Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Prolonged Exposure to gently and firmly help my clients regain their freedom, their voice and their joy. I can help you achieve your goals as you take steps towards your own healing. I have a bachelor's in teaching from Bloomsburg University, a master's in Reading from SUNY Cortland, and a master's in Mental Health Therapy from Messiah University.
Hi, I’m Kim! I am an experienced therapist and school social worker whose goal is for you to feel free to explore difficult emotions, life and mental health challenges in a safe, and judgement-free space. I bring a compassionate, validating, and empowering approach to every session. I will help you and/or your child transcend the challenges you are facing in your life. Currently, I am not taking couples clients.
Hi, nice to meet you!
I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with a heart for walking alongside others while they work through difficulties in life. I believe everyone is valuable, worthy, and deserves to have support when they need it most. I hope to give you a safe, non-judgmental environment to work through any challenges you are facing, whether that be life changes, trauma, betrayal trauma, unwanted sexual behaviors and integrity, anxiety, depression, grief/loss, relationship struggles, or a need to learn and set boundaries.
With over 20 years of experience supporting individuals through a wide range of life’s challenges, I know how difficult the decision to seek help can often be. I have helped clients with issues from day-to-day stressors to the complexities of serious mental illness and addiction. I work with clients 13+ with a wide variety of concerns including depression, anxiety, and compulsive behavior, among others.
I specialize in working with Christians who desire to integrate their faith into their treatment. This brings the best in evidence-based practice in line with the essential role of faith in their lives.
When working with clients, I try to create a safe, non-judgmental space that will allow them to honestly share what is going on. I believe that our work together is a partnership, so I respect your feelings, beliefs, opinions and process. I am versatile in evidence-based practice methods, including EMDR and Motivational Interviewing, to help bring you clarity and relief.
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.
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!

Frequently asked questions


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.
