Therapist

Virtual • Pennsylvania


My name is Lynn Johnson, LCSW and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master of Social Work degree and extensive experience supporting individuals navigating mental health, addiction recovery and life’s most challenging transitions. Throughout my career, I have worked with diverse populations in both community and clinical settings, helping clients address concerns such as Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, substance use and recovery, relationship difficulties, life stressors and emotional wellness. My background in addiction recovery and mental health treatment has provided me with a deep understanding of the complex factors that influence healing, resilience and long-term personal growth. I believe that therapy should be a collaborative, supportive and empowering experience. My approach is grounded in compassion, authenticity, and evidence-based practices that help clients identify strengths, overcome barriers and develop practical tools for Jason’s change. Whether you are facing a difficult life transitions, working through emotional pain, rebuilding after addiction, or seeking greater balance and fulfillment, I am committed to providing a safe, nonjudgmental space where healing and growth can occur.

Darcie Rudolf

Therapist

Virtual • Pennsylvania


Hi there, I'm Darcie! I'm a licensed professional counselor at New Beginnings Virtual Counseling LLC specializing in trauma and PTSD management. I've provided care for over 11 years supporting, teens and adults through grief, substance use, Autism, anxiety, trauma, depression, anger and stress management, and depression.

Through personal grief, I understand that loss is not something you just get over. It changes you. Healing begins with support, time, and space to actively grieve and nurture your wellbeing.

I understand how complicated life can become where one day we stop, look around, and think what happened, how did I get here. Together we can untangle those knots.
