Are you tired of carrying things that are just too heavy for you to carry alone anymore? As a licensed professional counselor, I can help you carry that load. In my 12 years as a counselor, I've worked with families, children, adolescents, and adults of all ages in homes, outpatient offices, and online. I have a Ph.D. in counselor education and supervision, and have taught in graduate counseling programs, but my first love is working directly with individuals who are dealing with the effects of trauma, grief, burnout, or anxiety. I am a Christian and would be happy to incorporate your spiritual beliefs, whether Christian or not, into our work together, if desired.

I’ve been a therapist for more than 38 years, and I bring a steady, compassionate approach to helping adults through a wide range of challenges. Over the past 16 years, I worked in two Veterans Outpatient Clinics, where I had the privilege of supporting both male and female veterans. My areas of focus include trauma, PTSD, childhood sexual abuse, domestic abuse, relationship concerns, depression, and anxiety. My approach is to meet the client where they are and assist them in improving their lives.

I specialize in treating Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), Excoriation (Skin Picking Disorder), Trichotillomania (Hair Pulling Disorder), anxiety, depression, trauma, and grief and loss. Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of supporting individuals from diverse backgrounds, including members of the BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ communities.

Hola, I’m Mercedes. I’m a bilingual (English | Spanish) psychotherapist who supports individuals navigating Anxiety, Trauma, and significant life transitions. My approach incorporates somatic principles to help you develop greater Self-Awareness by listening to what your body is communicating.
I understand how easy it can be to lose touch with yourself when you’ve spent so much time surviving, adapting, or staying strong. My goal is to create a space where you can slow down, feel truly understood, and reconnect with yourself so you can make decisions that feel more aligned with who you are and where you want to go.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Media
Searching for a therapist in Media, PA starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want support with. People look for therapy in Media, PA for many reasons, including anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, work stress, and life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy styles, and populations served. A therapist’s bio can help you understand whether they offer approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care, and what a first session may look like.
Media is a smaller local market, so nearby in-person options may vary by office location, schedule, and availability. Virtual therapy can expand your options across Pennsylvania while still letting you choose a therapist licensed to provide care in the state. When narrowing your search, consider whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare communication style, experience, and approach in one place.
Therapy in Media 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 therapists who match your preferences and are accepting new patients, so you can review bios, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready. You can enter your insurance details on Headway to confirm coverage and review your estimated cost before booking.
