I really appreciate Jocelyn’s attention to what my needs are rather than trying to follow some sort of generalized treatment plan. She takes the time to understand what I’m going through and what I want to work on without her own agenda. I don’t think I could’ve been paired with anyone better to help me get through some of my struggles. She has been sure to make me comfortable since our very first conversation and has never made me feel like I’m bothering her or taking up her time. She’s very respectful of every topic I’ve thrown her way while still offering useful tools to help guide me through. She’s been extremely responsive every time I’ve sent her messages no matter time or day I send them. Thank you so much!

More about Jocelyn

  • 22 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor from Northwestern Pennsylvania and have been providing therapy in various capacities for over twenty years. I've worked with many different populations, ages, and in various settings to provide therapy to those in need. I've spent a great deal of time honing my skills to best assist those with struggles regarding relationship issues, parenting problems, communication issues, and trauma-related concerns. However, my scope has often included working with individuals who present with depression, anxiety, marital conflict, family conflict, mood disorders, and many others. A great deal of my experience has been centered around children/adolescents, family systems work, and trauma-narrative therapy.

My counseling style is best described as open, warm, accepting, and curious. I'm creative in my treatment planning and provide a unique perspective on concerns presented to me during sessions or other correspondence. I employ an empathic and supportive approach to issues, an do so in a direct manner to best help clients truly work toward enacting change in their own lives. I will gladly tailor any discussions and/ or treatment planning to each client's individual needs!

Asking for support in our lives can often be a difficult choice, and that's why I believe it takes courage for individuals to reach out, share their stories, and bravely work on identified goals. I very much look forward to the work we will do together!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

I am so grateful for Jocelyn. She is so great at what she does and I felt comfortable with her from the start. She's so easy to speak to and to be yourself with. I would recommend her completely. She is professional and at the same time authentically herself. I look forward to every session I have with her because no matter how I feel when I first start talking, by the time our session ends, I feel positive and supported.

Jocelyn adapts to what I am needing at the moment and helps guide me to a better understanding of behavior that interferes with my day-to-day activities. She helps me find my own confidence and learn how to talk myself back to logic from my extremely emotional responses to life challenges.

So far I have had two sessions with Jocelyn as well as several message. She has been wonderful! She's very easy to talk with, warm, kind, responsive. This is my first experience with therapy and I wasn't sure whether it would be awkward or uncomfortable, but it hasn't been at all! I am doing video sessions with her which I highly recommend because there has been a lot we've been able to dig into based on my reactions which she may not have picked up on via phone or messaging! Overall I would highly recommend Jocelyn. I am so glad I was matched with her.
