Thank you so much for reaching out and considering me to walk alongside you. My goal is to help you do more than just get through the day—I want to help you truly thrive. As a Licensed Professional Counselor here in Pennsylvania, I specialize in solution-oriented care designed to help you navigate things like anxiety, depression, and work stress with a renewed sense of self-acceptance.
Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, but it does not have to be. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable, understood, and supported from the very first session. I am known for being down-to-earth, genuine, and easy to talk to. I have several years of experience providing family therapy and working with individuals facing anxiety, stress, relationship challenges, family conflict, and life transitions. My approach is collaborative and flexible, allowing us to work together to identify goals and develop practical strategies that support meaningful change.
Hi! I'm Tia, and I'd love to help you achieve your goals!
I have over a decade of experience working with children and adults in various treatment settings (school, home-based, prison, and in outpatient clinics, etc). I also specialize in treating problematic sexual behaviors, impulse control issues, anti-social personality traits, and violent behaviors.
I believe everyone has the opportunity to change, and I'd love to help you throughout your journey!
Finding the right therapist is about finding a balance between someone who truly "gets" it and someone who can help you map out the way forward. I’ve dedicated my career to being both a safe harbor and a catalyst for growth. My approach is rooted in deep empathy, but I am also firmly goal-oriented. Whether we are navigating a specific diagnosis or a difficult life transition, I believe that therapy should provide you with both a sense of peace and a clear sense of direction.
Areas of Expertise & Passion
Children & Adolescents: I spent ten years working with students facing a wide range of challenges, including autism, anxiety, oppositional defiance disorder (ODD), and emotional disturbances. I understand the unique pressures of the school environment and am passionate about helping kids find their footing and flourish.
Young Adults: The transition into adulthood can feel like navigating without a map. I help young adults build the confidence they need to define their own version of success and tackle the "what comes next" with resilience.
Mothers & Postpartum Support: Motherhood is a profound transformation, often accompanied by overwhelming stressors. I provide a supportive space for postpartum moms and those juggling the relentless demands of family life to find balance, reclaim their identity, and prioritize their mental well-being.
My philosophy: I believe every individual deserves a space where they are fully seen and heard. My mission is to provide that safety while empowering you to reach the milestones that matter most to you.If you’re looking for a partner in your journey toward growth—or a steady hand for your child—I’m here to help. Let’s get to work.
I am a therapist who genuinely loves this work and the people I get to do it with. I work with adults who are navigating big life changes, relationship shifts, and the kind of moments that make you stop and ask "who am I now?" My approach is flexible and collaborative, so we figure out together what you need and how to get there. I work fully virtually, so you can show up to sessions from wherever feels most comfortable for you.
Hello and welcome! My name is Julie Buttram, I am an LPC in Pennsylvania, and received my degree from La Salle University. I have 10 years of experience working with a diverse population of individuals in outpatient therapy. The people I have worked with have come from all walks of life, many cultural experiences and identities, and across all ages (from 2 - 80 years of age).
Finding the right therapist can feel like a leap of faith — especially when you've spent years wondering if anyone will truly get you. Whether you're navigating identity, relationships, life transitions, or carrying weight you've never said out loud, you deserve a space where you don't have to explain yourself from the beginning. That matters here. You are not too much. You are not too complicated. And you don't have to perform wellness to be worthy of support.

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.
