Our therapists provide online therapy in Philadelphia, PA

Welcome! My name is Ben. I am a licensed professional counselor in the state of PA. I work with individuals facing a range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, and relationship issues. My goal is to provide a safe and supportive space where clients can explore their thoughts and feelings, set realistic goals, and develop effective coping strategies to improve their overall well-being and achieve lasting positive change.

My approach to therapy is rooted in a person-centered experience for the client. No two clients are the same, so I pull from a range of therapeutic modalities—including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills, EMDR, and Existentialism—to meet each client's unique needs. I also approach my work in a trauma-informed way and never assume that I understand your experience.

If you feel like I may be the right fit for you, I encourage you to reach out and schedule an appointment to explore how I can support your journey toward well-being.

My name is Irlande Stavien, and I have been working in mental health for the past 13 years. My path into this field began with a desire to better understand people—their struggles, their resilience, and the many ways life can shape emotional well-being. I hold a bachelor's degree in Psychology and Psychiatric Rehabilitation, as well as a master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. 

For 8  years, I worked in one of my state's largest hospitals, and over the last 5 years, I've continued to grow while helping others work toward becoming the person they envision themselves to be. Working with individuals from many different backgrounds has strengthened my understanding of the importance of compassion and genuine human connection. 

I focus on creating a nonjudgmental space where clients feel safe, heard, and understood. My goal is to help clients feel empowered, supported, and able to move toward healing and personal growth at their own pace. My approach is grounded in compassion, authenticity, and meeting people where they are while helping them build the life they want.
