As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker I am trained to take a holistic approach to healing. That's really just a fancy way to say that I help you look at and focus on everything that makes you, you. And you are not just your diagnosis or symptoms. Healing is hard. Change is hard. But they are within reach. That's why I am driven to do what I do. I work with individuals to make that easier by creating a safe place to explore strengths, family history, support systems, community, and barriers. Together we walk the journey to healing and change, whatever that may look like.

I graduated with a social work degree from Messiah College and a Masters of Social Work degree with a clinical focus from Temple University. I've worked in various settings throughout the years including working with children in the foster care system and adoption settings. I have been working in the outpatient therapy setting since 2008. I've worked with clients experiencing depression, anxiety, PTSD, trauma, anger issues, grief and loss, divorce, suicidal thoughts, and relationship struggles. I specialize in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), trauma informed care, and mindfulness. I teach skills that assist in managing relationships, building self-esteem and identifying and regulating emotions.

The laid back, relaxed environment clients find with Restore Counseling, is really an extension of who I am. When I'm not at work you can find me on the beach, enjoying music, movies, and playing sports with my son. I love to laugh and others would say that I can be goofy, which I don't mind because I enjoy being myself and seeing others smile. I can't wait to meet you!

Hi I'm Jim! I am a licensed professional counselor and graduated from Loyola University with a Master of Science in clinical counseling in 2016. I am a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP), specializing in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). I have worked in numerous settings such as the foster care system, traditional outpatient, and school-based therapy. I have worked with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, PTSD and complex PTSD, relationship conflict, trauma, anger issues, and suicidal ideations to name a few.

My interests include complex trauma, parenting, depression, anxiety, diversity issues, grief, and teenagers struggling to survive in this world. I am educated in using an eclectic therapeutic approach to meet clients where they are in their journey.

I see myself as a therapist who walks alongside my clients instead of one who leads. I believe in treating all with unconditional positive regard and providing a place of safety for clients so they can begin their journey towards healing.

Hello there! My name is Dena and I am so excited to welcome you. I am a person-centered, humanistic counselor who meets clients where they are in the present moment.

I am a graduate of Kutztown University and hold a master's in Professional School Counseling with Licensure. I am working on licensure hours with the supervision of the Restore Counseling team to become a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). Before joining Restore Counseling, I worked as a Professional School Counselor in both the high school and middle school setting for seven years. I worked in both rural and suburban environments in different parts of the country; I supported the academic, personal, and social needs of those I served, conducting individual and small group counseling, as well as large group instruction. I have experience targeting the areas of stress reduction, suicidal thoughts, identity development, family changes, grief and loss, healthy lifestyles, executive functioning, sadness/depression, body and self-image, and feeling and emotional awareness.

My current role as a school-based therapist for Ephrata Area School District has allowed me to expand on my experience and provide trauma-informed care and healing to young clients. When I am not at work I can be found outside, preferably hiking or paddling, traveling, or at the nearest coffee shop.

Hello! I am Katherine (Kat), a licensed social worker. I graduated from Millersville University with both bachelor's and master's degree in social work. I have worked with a variety of populations which includes children, adolescents, teens, individuals suffering from trauma, as well as individuals managing anger issues. I am most passionate about the work I do with children of all ages. I started my journey in being an advocate with my work in early intervention services as an advocate for children in need of support. I then changed the way I advocated through being a clinician at a private practice. Being more hands on allowed me to not only have a better understanding of child development but continue to learn more about how crucial family systems are.

Within sessions I employ a variety of strategies that best fit the client, including play therapy, art therapy, strengths-based therapy, talk therapy, and much more. I aim to create a warm and welcoming environment where the client feels not only comfortable but safe to speak their truth, feelings, and more.

In my free time, I am in my craft studio creating colorful art pieces. I am always trying to make new things whether that be with paint, clay, wood, and anything else I can get my hands on! I also spend time with friends, family, and my husband. I am excited to meet and join you on your therapeutic journey.

Hi! My name is Hannah and I have a passion for empowering clients by supporting them in building resilience and fostering personal growth. I am a graduate of Millersville University with a master's degree in clinical psychology and I hold a license (LPC) and national certification (NCC) in counseling. I have experience working in outpatient and school-based settings treating children, adolescents, and young adults. I am an advocate for early engagement in therapy as it can be a valuable tool for allowing clients to take ownership of their mental health and learn foundational skills that can be carried into adulthood.

I am committed to providing a therapeutic environment that nurtures trust and respect. I like to meet individuals where they are by offering empathy, validation, acceptance, and guidance. I take an eclectic, strengths-based approach to therapy to fit the unique needs of each client. I tend to include techniques from cognitive behavioral (CBT), dialectical behavioral (DBT), and humanistic therapy. With my younger clients, I enjoy using art, music, movement, and play therapy activities in sessions to promote expression and skill building. I have experience in treating depression, anxiety, ADHD, anger, grief/loss, relational conflict, self-esteem issues, suicidal thoughts, and trauma.

I am here to help my clients feel seen and valued. I strive to build meaningful connections that allow for safe exploration of one's inner thoughts and feelings as we work together to identify challenges and barriers to growth. In turn, we can create change that aids in overall well-being. In my free time, I enjoy being with friends and family, visiting new places, going to concerts, making new recipes, antiquing/thrifting, and listening to a good book or podcast.
