Cosmi Konzelman

Therapist

Virtual • Pennsylvania


I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with experience working in a variety of settings supporting individuals navigating PTSD, addiction, and recovery from domestic violence and relational trauma. I have worked in community mental health, treatment programs, and trauma-informed environments, giving me a deep understanding of the complex challenges these populations face.

My approach is trauma-focused, attachment-based, and grounded in cognitive-behavioral therapy. I believe in meeting clients exactly where they are — without judgment — and partnering together toward meaningful, measurable healing. My goal is not just symptom management, but helping you experience real growth, healthier relationships, emotional stability, and lasting change.

Therapy with me is compassionate, direct, and empowering. We will work at a pace that feels safe while gently challenging patterns that no longer serve you. I believe healing is possible, and I am passionate about helping clients see tangible results in their lives.

For clients who desire it, I can also incorporate Christian faith-integrated counseling into our work together.

You don’t have to navigate this alone — support and transformation are possible.

Hi! I have been in the therapy field for over 18 years, working with individuals and families in both outpatient, group, and residential settings. After a few unsatisfying careers and emotional stagnation in relationships, I recognized I needed to do some significant work on myself. I pursued therapy for myself which led me to appreciate the capacity and curiosity to want to help others.
