About
As someone who believes in the healing power of creativity, I often say, “Music doesn’t eliminate the storm, but it gives us rhythm while we walk through it".
I am a licensed professional counselor of mental health (LPCMH) with 7 years of experience supporting older teens and adults. I specialize in helping individuals navigate anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, personality disorders, and challenges related to forensic system involvement. Many of my clients are seeking relief from overwhelming emotions, healthier relationships, and practical tools to manage life’s waves.
I earned my master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling from Slippery Rock University. My approach is client-centered and flexible, integrating cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy to build coping skills, regulate emotions, and process pain in a collaborative and individualized way.
Healing is hard work, but you do not have to do it alone. I bring warmth, humor, and authenticity into our sessions, so growth feels supportive, not intimidating. If you are ready to begin—or even just considering it—I invite you to take the next step and schedule an appointment.

I have experienced significant personal losses throughout most of my adult lifespan, which has influenced me as an empathetic and understanding therapist while helping others who are looking to understand their own emotional pain, whether the loss is recent or from their past
My name is Judith Pantalino, and I've gone by Judy since childhood. I earned my MS in Community Counseling from Wilmington University in May 2013 and am licensed as a Mental Health Therapist in Delaware. I work with clients experiencing anxiety and depressive symptoms due to grief and loss—most often through the death of a loved one. My bereavement clients are often navigating loneliness for the first time in their lives, whether they've lost a spouse of many decades or a child at any age. This type of healing tends to be a long-term emotional recuperation with weekly therapy sessions.
I begin the therapeutic process using person-centered therapy. I like to add onto this process with CBT. It is a collaborative process between the client and therapist together and is helpful in identifying and changing negative thoughts and behaviors. These thoughts and behaviors can be the cause of your anxiety, stress and/or depressive thoughts.
I believe in you as you make your first step towards a more peaceful life. Each step matters as you progress in your well-being. My goal is to walk alongside you as you gain confidence and move toward this peaceful life. I hope you'll take the next step and schedule a session where we can work together as you heal and grow.

I have been on my own journey, as a woman of color, to discover and accept the Who of who I am, and not just accept the expectations and beliefs of who I should be based on the context of my gender and racial identities, my family, my cultural traditions, and general societal pressures. Therefore, I respect the journey of others.

With Thriveworks, Online therapy is an effective alternative to in-person therapy services in which a client can speak to a Thriveworks therapist remotely via online video conferencing. Online sessions are just as effective as in-person treatment, but they can also provide added benefits like reduced travel time, saving money on transportation or childcare, and increased access to care.
Online therapy works much like traditional in-person therapy but takes place through secure video conferencing. Clients can attend Online therapy from any safe place they choose that has access to the internet, whether that be their home or another easily accessible place. Like in-person treatment, a therapist will work with their client to address their concerns, create goals, and establish an effective treatment plan.
There is no best option for online therapy—instead, it’s best to focus on finding a provider that meets your specific needs and with whom you can form a professional connection with.
Yes, online therapy is just as effetive for many clients as in-person sessions.
Online therapy can last for a few months to years depending on the goals and symptoms of the client. The treatment process will be unique to each client and lend itself to their specific concerns, which means that the time it takes to treat them will always be different. Timing is also up to the client themselves; they are free to stop therapy whenever they please, especially if they feel they have reached their goals and addressed their concerns.
At Thriveworks, we accept most major insurance plans, allowing many clients to pay as little as $0–$50 per session with their co-pay. We also offer self-pay options for those out-of-network or without insurance. Self-pay rates for talk therapy range from $160 to $240 for intake sessions and $135 to $195 for follow-ups, depending on your state. For psychiatry services, self-pay intake sessions are $255–$375, with follow-ups ranging from $175–$300, also varying by state. More information on current self-pay costs is available on our pricing page.
