I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania with years of experience guiding adults, teens, and families through life's toughest moments.

With a background as a school administrator, teacher, and school counselor, my practice is dedicated to caretakers, high achievers, and educators—anyone who looks completely put together on the outside but feels like they are drowning on the inside under the weight of perfectionism and burnout.

I specialize in helping clients navigate:

  • Chronic anxiety & depression
  • Perfectionism & burnout
  • Trauma & self-esteem challenges

Outside of the therapy room, I’ve been married for over a decade and am a proud dog mom!

Darcie Rudolf

Therapist

Virtual • Pennsylvania


Hi there, I'm Darcie! I'm a licensed professional counselor at New Beginnings Virtual Counseling LLC specializing in trauma and PTSD management. I've provided care for over 11 years supporting, teens and adults through grief, substance use, Autism, anxiety, trauma, depression, anger and stress management, and depression.

Through personal grief, I understand that loss is not something you just get over. It changes you. Healing begins with support, time, and space to actively grieve and nurture your wellbeing.

I understand how complicated life can become where one day we stop, look around, and think what happened, how did I get here. Together we can untangle those knots.
