Real Human, Real Therapy, Real Support. Living in the day to day can be intense. The pressure, the pace, the constant push to keep going. It's no wonder your mind feels overloaded. At The Revival Room, you are connected with a real human who gets it. I'm here to help you navigate life without losing yourself in the chaos. Whether you're working through trauma, navigating relationships, or battling anxiety and depression. I'll meet you where you are and walk with you toward where you want to go. I'm a relational therapist. This means I work to build genuine connections and bring my authentic self into the therapy room. I hold a certification in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Are you in need of someone who can provide a space to explore your thoughts, feelings and worries without shame or judgement? Are you ready to learn tools to conquer future challenges that come your way? I am able to offer both in person and telehealth sessions. I look forward to getting to know you!
If you're feeling overwhelmed at times, reaching out for support is a great first step. I offer a nonjudgmental space where you can work toward your goals. My approach is collaborative, practical, and strengths-focused. With over 25 years of experience, I help students navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, and OCD. I understand how much these challenges can impact daily life, and you don’t have to handle them alone.
People I work with are hurting and confused, feeling alone and anxious, acting like everything's ok when it's not, hiding a lot of themselves a lot of the time. If you want to understand and work better with how you're thinking, feeling, and acting, if you want to be more dialed in and feel more confident... I can help.

As a young adult, you often wonder what can be done to help yourself feel better. You have tried many things yet there has been little to no lasting improvement. Your personality has changed, you have challenges with relationships, their interests have decreased and you worry that things might get worse. You know that you have great potential to do great things but the way things are going, your future looks bleak. Seeking help can be scary, because you want to make sure that you have someone but feel scared about taking the risk of letting anyone in. Imagine what it would feel like not to constantly worry about so many things all of the time and feel confident about making decisions about everyday tasks. You would feel better about yourself and your ability to handle difficult situations that arise. In order to accommodate your schedule, I offer evening and weekend appointments so you don't have to worry about missing school. Together, we'll create a customized plan to get you back on track. Call my office to learn more and schedule your free consultation today. Make a change today!

Hello: Are you struggling with adjusting to college? Do you feel overwhelmed with this new chapter in your life? Do you miss home? Is college schoolwork overwhelming at times? If you answered yes to any of these questions, I might be able to help you feel more adjusted and more like yourself. I work with college students on many issues such as stress management, adjusting to a new life, and feeling good about this new phase in their life.
Welcome! We provide counseling, physical therapy, massage, and nutrition services. Our approach is holistic, compassionate, and client-centered care to help adults, teens, and children in their journeys. COUNSELING: anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, trauma, sports, relationship, grief, and more. PT/MASSAGE: pain ('tweaked back', headaches etc.), injuries, stress, relaxation, anxiety, trauma, and more. NUTRITION: weight gain/loss, gut health, performance, autoimmune disease, well-being, and more. Our goal is to come along side you and help you get better as part of your support team.
Change can be hard, but I'm here to support you. My clients are often in transition, whether they're adapting to a new school or city, experiencing a change in relationships, coping with loss, managing a new health condition, coming out, or simply reflecting on their goals in a new light. If that resonates with you, I want to help you flourish. Depression, anxiety, impulse control issues, and traumatic stress make it harder to navigate change. I have experience serving clients who are working to overcome these mental health challenges. In our first session, we’ll talk about what brings you to counseling, your strengths, the things you value, and where you want your life to go. I aim for you to leave feeling hopeful. My style is genuine and straightforward - I want therapy to take the weight off your shoulders. Please give me a call or send me an email if you'd like to get started!

As a trauma-informed, bilingual psychotherapist, I am dedicated to facilitating clients' personal healing. I assist individuals in overcoming patterns of recurring memories, maladaptive behaviors, and negative self-perceptions related to themselves, others, and their environment. My objective is to help clients cultivate ambition, a growth-oriented mindset, and sustained commitment to achieving positive change. Our work will commence by examining the formative messages that shape identity, as well as those imposed by one's surroundings, which may lead to feelings of disconnection from oneself.
In my time working as a counselor, I have helped patients manage and overcome obstacles like anxiety, depression, and major life transitions. From challenges with the overwhelming pressure of academic life, work life, career choices, relationship challenges, and more, I will be there to offer an objective perspective on your situation and provide healthy tips and resources to navigate it. My approach empowers personal growth while always ensuring you feel safe, seen, and heard. Therapy is a great place to talk about life's problems where you can say anything and not be judged. No matter what you’re facing, talking with someone can help. My goal is to create a supportive, judgment-free space where you feel like you’re grabbing coffee with a friend…a friend who happens to be a licensed counselor with more than 10 years of experience. I work with teenagers (age 14+), adults, as well as couples. Depending on patients’ needs, I utilize CBT, DBT, and Reality Therapy approaches in sessions. Currently, all sessions will be conducted virtually, allowing you to participate from the comfort of your own home and on a more flexible schedule. Let's do this together!
We provide a safe, caring environment with only top-rated specialists. We provide secure online therapy & counseling that fits your life. With a results-based, individualized approach, our goal is to help you heal and become happy again.

Welcome! Whether you are beginning your therapeutic journey for the first time or returning to continue your progress, I am so glad you’re here. Starting therapy is a significant step towards self-discovery and healing, and I commend you for taking it! I have a profound commitment to assisting individuals, especially young adults, who are dealing with trauma and anxiety. These experiences can be challenging and often overwhelming, affecting various aspects of life. My specialization in trauma therapy provides you with a safe, supportive space to explore and heal from past experiences. Similarly, my experience in anxiety management can support you in understanding and overcoming the symptoms that may be impacting your daily life. I have worked in Community Mental Health for over three years where meeting with clients in some of their darkest times has influenced me to take specified approaches to therapy. I create a relaxed atmosphere with an informal, friendly communication style, allowing you to express yourself freely. I work alongside you, guiding and supporting your journey with an approach tailored to your needs, and your feedback is invaluable for productive sessions.
I have many years of experience working with college students, both as a counselor and also as an instructor. I offer individual counseling through Telehealth at this time, which is convenient for college students with changing schedules. I am able to work with anyone in the state of Pennsylvania. I provide a safe, comfortable environment in which my client can process their presenting concerns. Together we will develop a plan that you are comfortable utilizing and that will promote growth in the areas you are experiencing concerns. Telehealth allows you to visit with me in a comfortable space of your own choosing.
Counseling is a collaborative effort between the counselor and client. Professional counselors help clients identify goals and potential solutions to problems which cause emotional distress, seek to improve communication and coping skills, strengthen self-esteem, and promote behavior change and optimal mental health. Alyson is a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Pennsylvania. She utilizes a client-centered approach to create a supportive, nonjudgmental, and individualized experience from the initial intake until discharge. Mountain View Counseling LLC offers individual counseling, play therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, family sessions, and marital counseling. Alyson focuses on Clinical and Counseling Psychology but also has a specialization in Addiction. Appointments available for clients ages 8+. State licensing supervision available. Agency trainings also available including Trauma-Informed Care. ​
The clients I work best with usually have one thing in common: they are tired of feeling like they have to hold it all together alone. Many are high-achieving students who look “fine” on the outside but are quietly dealing with anxiety, burnout, mood changes, family stress, relationship challenges, or just the pressure of trying to figure life out. Some feel overwhelmed. Some feel unmotivated. Some feel like they’ve lost parts of themselves along the way. I’m down to earth. You don’t have to show up polished or perfect with me. You can show up as you are. I’m highly skilled in mental health treatment, including therapy and medication management when appropriate. If medication is part of your journey, I will explain your options clearly so you feel informed and in control. But I also believe healing is bigger than prescriptions alone. I deeply value creative expression as a form of therapy. Art therapy doesn’t have to mean sitting in a formal art session—it can look like exploring crochet, dancing in your room, listening to music that helps you process emotion, or writing your thoughts out when your mind feels loud. These practices matter. They regulate the nervous system. They give voice to feelings that are hard to name. I practice what I teach. I’m relatable, and I personally use creative outlets to manage my own mental wellness. I believe in realistic, sustainable coping—not just clinical advice. If you’re someone who wants support that blends real conversation, clinical expertise, and creative exploration, we might be a good fit. You deserve care that sees your whole self. You can also connect with me on Instagram at @mothriftynp, where I share mental health insights and creative inspiration.
