Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in Newtown, PA

As a licensed therapist in Maryland with two decades of experience, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex life transitions and emotional challenges.

My professional focus encompasses trauma recovery, mood disorders, military and veteran mental health, and life stage transitions including divorce, grief, and end-of-life counseling. As a former firefighter in the Baltimore area, I bring a deep expertise in addressing posttraumatic stress, first responder mental health, and traumatic brain injury. My approach centers on understanding each individual's unique journey, offering compassionate support for those experiencing stress, anxiety, and emotional complexity.

With a commitment to holistic healing, I work closely with clients to develop resilience, process challenging experiences, and rediscover personal strength. Whether supporting veterans, first responders, or individuals facing significant life changes, I provide a supportive, understanding environment where healing and growth can flourish.

My therapeutic practice is grounded in evidence-based approaches that honor each client's individual experience and potential for transformation.

Hi there and welcome. My name is Anita and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and currently providing virtual therapy to individuals residing in Pennsylvania and Florida. I have been working in the mental health field for over 20 years, and currently specialize in treating adults struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, traumatic life experience, disordered eating and substance use recovery. I also have significant experience working with diverse cultural populations and the LGBTQIA+ community.

Who you are matters to me — and I mean that in the most specific way. Your story, your nervous system, your family history, your relationship with yourself. Not a diagnosis. Not a checklist. You.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 24 years of experience supporting people through anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, and the quiet weight of just not feeling like yourself anymore. I offer telehealth therapy across Pennsylvania and Florida, which means you can access support from wherever you are — no commute, no waiting room.

I began working in criminal justice before pursuing social work — and that dual lens gives me a broad way of understanding people and the systems that shape them. I've worked alongside people in crisis, in grief, in deeply stuck places. I know what it looks like when someone is carrying trauma they've never named, and I know how to sit with you in that without flinching. My style is warm, grounded, and genuinely down to earth.
