Grief counselors and therapists in Allentown, PA

Hello! As a licensed professional counselor, I want to help you achieve your best self. Asking for help can be difficult, so it's great that you are looking into getting help. I have been in practice for 10 years and look forward to working with you to achieve your goals.

My name is Chami and I do my best to create a warm space for my clients. I got my M.Ed at Temple University, and their emphasis on diversity, inclusion, and affirming treatment is deeply rooted in my own practice. I have spent quite a bit of of my practice, working with people who struggle with things like addiction, abusive relationships, mood disorders, and trauma.

I am a seasoned clinician and have worked in several outpatient and residential settings with diverse client populations, with a particular interest in geriatric, special needs and LGBTQ+ communities. I attended Earlham College and the University of Pennsylvania, where I earned a Masters in Social Work in 1993. Often, I utilize cognitive behavioral therapy, narrative and humanistic therapy in my work with clients. I believe in the ability of each individual to grow and make lasting changes.

I embrace the philosophy of "meeting people where they are at" when it comes to treatment. Whether it is serious mental illness or "first world problems," the first step is understanding the symptom experiences and environmental/relational factors, building a safe therapeutic environment, and determining what progress in treatment looks like for you. My aim is to empower you, be curious and open-minded about your lived experiences, explore meaningful ways to make changes, utilize non-judgmental approaches to challenge thoughts/narratives that have contributed to the reason(s) for treatment, and/or facilitate better communication with supports. I specialize in working with people who who struggle with communicating their unique symptoms/experiences, making therapy difficult to try or intimidating or as a result have been through the "ringer" of mental health treatment with a variety of potential diagnoses.

I have been in the field for a little over 7 years. I enjoy helping others meet the goals they have for themselves. I have been licensed in the state of PA for 2 years, I am trained in trauma counseling and drug and alcohol counseling but I have worked with individuals who have day to day stress and those who have mental health disorders.

I'm a therapist who specializes in trauma. I'm familiar with symptoms of anxiety and depression both in clinical practice and from my own lived experience. I am a queer, neurodivergent therapist who specializes in PTSD, LGBTQ+ issues, and empowering women. I want to give my clients the vocabulary to put their feelings to words and heal old wounds. I like to focus on problem-solving and teaching coping skills to address the daily discomfort you feel. I graduated with honors from a Master's Clinical Mental Health Counseling program and have 5 years of clinical experience.

I’m a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner and the founder of Mindful Balance & Wellness. I provide evidence-based psychiatric care while incorporating an integrative approach that considers the connection between mental health, lifestyle, and overall well-being.

I work with adults and adolescents experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, and mood-related concerns. I’m particularly interested in how factors such as sleep, stress, nutrition, and hormonal changes can impact mental health, and I continue to expand my training in integrative and functional psychiatry to better support my patients.

I take time to listen and understand your full story, not just your symptoms. My goal is to create a personalized plan that helps you feel better, function better, and regain a sense of balance in your life.

Brittany is a holistic clinician and owner of Tender Soule Wellness. She is a licensed queer black counselor and dance/movement therapist. Brittany is warm, energetic, inquisitive, and empathetic. Creating sacred spaces for clients to express themselves fully is Brittany's primary focus.
