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.

Kristin Paulson

Kristin Paulson

Therapist

Virtual • Pennsylvania


For more than 30 years, I have been helping children, adults, and families navigate life’s challenges, heal from difficult experiences, and build stronger, healthier relationships. I am passionate about working with individuals who have experienced trauma, significant life stressors, anxiety, grief, relationship difficulties, and major life transitions.

I believe healing happens when people feel truly seen, heard, and understood. My goal is to create a safe, supportive environment where clients can explore their experiences, discover their strengths, and develop a greater sense of peace, resilience, and self-confidence.

I earned my Master of Social Work from Temple University and my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Catawba College. Throughout my career, I have remained committed to meeting each client where they are and helping them create meaningful, lasting change.

Louise Angela Shearon

Therapist

Virtual • Pennsylvania


It’s exhausting to live a life that feels more like a performance than an experience. You may feel heavy with the weight of "doing"—meeting expectations while losing the quiet essence of "being." Whether navigating the hollow ache of loss, the fog of depression, or the echoes of trauma, I know how it feels to be a stranger to yourself. Therapy begins when you decide you can no longer just "push through." We move forward by creating space for your pain to be heard. It's a journey of reclamation: stripping away the noise to rediscover the resilient, authentic soul that has been waiting for you all along.
