LGBT therapists in Reading, PA

I am a licensed therapist whose passion, knowledge, and expertise has been from working with women from many different backgrounds and walks of life. I received my masters in counseling from Pennsylvania Western University and have spent the last two years working with nurses and nursing students. Prior to that, I have spent many years working with youth and young adult women in psychiatric and hospital settings providing specialized care and support with grief/loss, relationship and familial issues, life changes, and general life exploration.

Clients my training and background would most benefit are those experiencing difficulty in their relationships with their children, parents, spouses, co-workers or other significant people in their lives; those whose anxiety or depression is holding them back, and those who are willing to work to reach their true potential.

I earned my MSW from the University of Illinois at Chicago concentrating in mental health and have helped people in complicated and difficult situations ever since.

Hi! I'm Amanda, LPC in Pennsylvania. I started my journey as a school counselor at a high school for 13 years and then transitioned into an outpatient facility. I enjoy working with teens, young adults, and adults as they navigate their lives. I love learning about and connecting with others. I help support individuals with adjusting to new situations, set boundaries, feel empowered, manage the demands of life, learn better coping and implement self-care. I was a DII College Athlete so I really enjoy getting to connect with other past or present athletes. I have over 19 years experience helping others with anxiety, depression, ADHD, Bi-polar, relationship issues, or just feeling overwhelmed and stressed.

Courtney Miller, LPC - Certified level II Complex-Post Traumatic Stress Clinician

Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected? I specialize in working with deep feelers & deep thinkers, LGBTQIA+ & gender-expansive communities, creatives, and cycle breakers healing from trauma. Whether you're navigating C-PTSD, emotional dysregulation, dissociation, identity struggles, or the impact of narcissistic family dynamics, I provide a supportive space to process your experiences and reclaim your sense of self. My goal is to help you build resilience, develop self-trust, and foster healthier relationships.

My approach to therapy is one of mutual respect and collaboration. I help clients face challenges head on and develop strategies to make life more fulfilling. I believe in the power of a strong, therapeutic relationship and believe it is vital to making progress together. I have extensive experience working with LGBT folks, those who've experienced trauma, and those with depression and anxiety.

Seeking help can be the first step to acquire greater understanding and insight into our lives and relationships.

I believe therapy should be a safe space for you to work towards your goals, without any judgment. Rather than feeling alone, a therapist should assist you on your journey to build the life you have envisioned, while understanding that you are the expert in your own life. I will be that therapist for you. I am passionate about assisting others to understand how their past impacts their current, in order to move forward to their future. I have experience working with those who have experienced trauma, endure the daily challenges of depression, anxiety, ADHD, and borderline personality disorder, and/or deal with LGBTQ+ issues.
