Great to meet you!

Hi, I’m Mimi, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania. If you're feeling overwhelmed, navigating a life transition, struggling with stress, anxiety, or simply looking for a space to better understand yourself, I’m here to support you.

Over the past four years, I’ve worked in outpatient behavioral health, substance use treatment centers, higher education, and private practice. These experiences have given me the opportunity to support individuals from diverse backgrounds and life experiences. I especially enjoy working with adolescents, college students, and young to middle-aged adults, and I am passionate about providing culturally responsive care to individuals within the BIPOC community.

I believe you deserve the opportunity to experience emotional wellness, personal growth, and greater clarity in your life. Healing is a journey that takes time, support, and self-reflection. At Ponder and Process Counseling Services, LLC, I provide a warm, supportive environment where you can explore challenges, process life experiences, gain insight, and develop the tools needed to move toward meaningful and lasting change.

When I’m not working with clients, I enjoy reading, spending time with my family, and taking long walks with my dog. These activities help me stay grounded and present qualities I strive to bring into each therapy session. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable being yourself, knowing that you will be met with compassion, respect, and understanding.

My approach to therapy

I believe therapy should be a space where you feel comfortable showing up as your authentic self—without fear of judgment. My goal is to create a supportive and collaborative environment where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to work toward your goals. I use evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and mindfulness practices, tailoring our work together to fit your unique needs, strengths, and experiences.

What you can expect from me

During our first session, you can expect a warm, welcoming space where you can share as much or as little as you feel comfortable. My goal is to help you feel supported and understood as we begin getting to know one another.

We'll talk about what brought you to therapy, the challenges you're currently facing, and any experiences that may be important to understanding your story. I'll also ask questions about different areas of your life so I can gain a clearer picture of your strengths, needs, and goals.

Together, we'll explore what you hope to achieve through therapy and what meaningful growth and healing look like for you. This first session is an opportunity for us to build a foundation of trust, discuss your needs, and begin creating a path forward that feels supportive, collaborative, and aligned with your personal goals.
