Luxaida J. Hernandez-Hierro

For Luxaida, one of the greatest privileges of this work is witnessing clients rediscover hope, reconnect with themselves, and realize they are far more resilient than they once believed.
Known for her warm, compassionate, and collaborative style, Luxaida creates an emotionally safe space where clients can feel seen, understood, and supported as they navigate meaningful change.

She works with adults and couples experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, panic disorder, attachment wounds, relationship challenges, perfectionism, people-pleasing, low self-esteem, and the grief that can accompany significant life transitions and breakups.

Her work is trauma-focused and deeply person-centered, with Internal Family Systems (IFS) informing much of the way she understands healing. Rather than viewing anxiety, fear, or other protective patterns as something that simply needs to be eliminated, Luxaida helps clients approach these parts of themselves with curiosity and compassion—exploring what they may be protecting and the experiences that shaped them. She believes that beneath the ways we have learned to survive is an innate capacity to heal, grow, and live more authentically.
Alongside IFS-informed work, Luxaida integrates CBT and DBT to help clients strengthen emotional regulation, challenge unhelpful patterns, develop practical coping skills, and rebuild trust in themselves. With couples, she incorporates Gottman Method principles to support healthier communication, deeper connection, and greater understanding within the relationship. Christian-based approach available upon request.

Education and Experience:
Luxaida has completed training in Gottman Level 1 Method Couples Therapy, Trauma-Informed Care, Exposure Therapy for Panic Disorder, and Internal Family Systems (IFS)-informed therapy.
Fluent in English and Spanish, she provides culturally responsive care that honors each client’s identity, culture, values, and lived experiences.
Favorite Quote:
“La terapia no busca cambiar quién eres, sino ayudarte a reconectar con esa capacidad de florecer que siempre ha existido en ti.”
Therapy isn’t about changing who you are—it’s about helping you reconnect with the capacity to flourish that has always been within you.

Christina Busch

With over 21 years of experience in behavioral health settings, Christine (she/her) has cultivated a deep understanding of the complexities that shape our mental and emotional well-being. She is passionate about creating a safe, non-judgmental space where clients can feel heard, respected, and supported during the therapeutic process.

Christine believes that the challenges we face are often intertwined with larger societal issues. That's why she integrates the Liberation Health Model into her practice—helping clients explore how their personal struggles may be connected to broader social, cultural, and systemic factors. This perspective empowers individuals to gain deeper insight into their experiences and take control of their healing in a shame-reducing manner.

In therapy, she utilizes a combination of evidence-based approaches, including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), parts work, narrative therapy and somatic interventions. These modalities are customized depending on the client's needs, allowing you to address trauma, internal conflicts, and emotional wounds in ways that foster healing and integration. She enjoys working with people of all ages that have experienced trauma, and those with alternative lifestyles. All parts of you and all types of people are welcome here!

Ultimately, she views therapy as a journey of self-discovery—a process in which you are the expert of your own life. Her role is to support you in navigating that journey, empowering you to reconnect with your true self, develop resilience, and create lasting change.

In her free time she loves reading, making art, travel, gardening, going to see live music, completing DIY projects, spending time with her two teens, and engaging in a wide variety of self-care activities.

Nicholas Coleman

Nick believes that the therapeutic process is a journey that begins with meeting the client exactly where they are in their healing process. By working collaboratively, Nick helps clients identify patterns and cycles that keep them feeling stuck. While the desire to eliminate unwanted thoughts and emotions may seem tempting, such attempts often lead to avoidant behaviors that feel beyond the client’s control. Instead, Nick encourages clients to accept that deeper emotions are valid responses to certain situations. This acceptance can foster inner peace, empowering clients to commit to meaningful changes in their lives.

Nick's approach focuses on helping clients regain a sense of agency, enabling them to take the driver's seat in their own lives while allowing difficult thoughts and feelings to remain as passengers, rather than the ones in control. He believes that a meaningful life is one that aligns with the client’s unique values. By identifying and clarifying those values, Nick guides clients in using them as a compass for navigating life’s challenges. The ultimate goal is to shift from decision-making driven by avoidance to making choices that create a life worth living.

Nick utilizes an eclectic approach, with an emphasis on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), to support clients in this transformative process.

Outside of work, Nick enjoys spending quality time with his partner and family. He often takes weekend trips that range from hiking, concerts and beach outings to exploring different amusement parks. At home, he likes to unwind with a good book or relax while watching a wide variety of TV shows and movies.

Kiley Rogan

You deserve a space where you feel comfortable, heard, and supported. I offer a safe, compassionate, welcoming environment where clients can explore their thoughts, emotions, and life experiences through both talk therapy and art therapy. I believe everyone has unique strengths, and that healing often happens when we’re met with understanding, a listening ear, and meaningful ways to express ourselves — whether through conversation, creativity, or a combination of both.

I work with clients navigating stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem challenges, parenting concerns, and life transitions, with a focus on self-expression, insight, and growth. My goal is to help clients feel more grounded, confident, and supported as they move toward greater balance and well-being.

Shania Kelly

Welcome, I’m glad you’re here!

Beginning therapy takes courage, and my goal is to create a space where you feel safe, supported, and truly heard. I believe you are the expert of your own life. My role is to walk alongside you with warmth and compassion, offering tools, perspective, and a non-judgmental space to explore what matters most to you.

I work with teens, adults, couples, and groups, with a special focus on supporting women, BIPOC, and LGBTQ+ communities. Many of my clients seek support around anxiety, depression, stress, relationship challenges, workplace burnout, identity development, family conflict, and navigating the impact of cultural, racial, or health-related stress.

My approach is person-centered, holistic, and mindfulness-based. I integrate trauma-informed and strength-focused practices that honor the whole person.. mind, body, and environment. In our work together, we’ll explore your story with curiosity and care, build resilience, and develop strategies that fit your unique needs.

Whether you are seeking short-term support or long-term growth, my hope is that you leave our sessions feeling more grounded, empowered, and connected to yourself. Therapy with me isn’t about being told who to be.. it’s about rediscovering your strengths, honoring your journey, and creating space for healing and balance.

Molly Hasay

Molly is a Licensed Associate Professional Counselor who works with children ages 6+, adolescents, and adults. She understands that starting counseling can feel scary, stressful, and overwhelming, especially when it means opening up to someone outside of your life in an unfamiliar setting. Molly recognizes the courage it can take to acknowledge, “I may need help,” and allow another person into your inner world. She does not expect clients to arrive knowing exactly what to say or how to explain what they are experiencing. Instead, Molly allows trust to develop with time, focusing on a therapeutic relationship where clients can feel comfortable being themselves and know they will be met with genuine curiosity rather than judgment.

Molly enjoys working with clients across different stages of life and recognizes that emotional and behavioral concerns can present uniquely for each person. She has experience supporting individuals with anxiety, depression, trauma, interpersonal difficulties, emotional regulation, mood-related disorders, life transitions, relationship concerns, and substance misuse. Molly is particularly interested in understanding each client’s worldview while exploring the relationships, experiences, and patterns that have shaped how they relate to others and, importantly, how they see themselves.

Molly’s approach to counseling is collaborative, individualized, and grounded in the belief that meaningful change often begins with a deeper understanding of ourselves. Her work is influenced by psychodynamic and attachment-based approaches, supporting clients in developing greater self-awareness and making sense of their history, thought patterns, emotional responses, and unmet needs. She also incorporates person-centered, cognitive behavioral, strengths-based, and other evidence-informed interventions that align with each client’s goals and preferences. Ultimately, Molly hopes clients feel more equipped to make intentional decisions, develop a stronger sense of self-empowerment, and approach life with greater confidence and autonomy.

Outside of the counseling office, Molly enjoys getting lost in good books, video games, or a new TV series. She is an animal lover and enjoys spending time with her dog and cat, who are never far from whatever she is doing. Listening to music is another source of comfort for Molly, whether she is unwinding, driving, or simply needs a familiar song to match the moment. Molly has a particular appreciation for rainy days and the permission they seem to offer a time to slow down.

Favorite quote: “Power of empathy: I'm in it with you. I'm not here to fix you. I'm not here to feel it for you. I'm here to feel with you and let you know you're not alone.

Wes Talarico

Hi, I’m Wes, and I’m so happy you’re here. I am an art therapist and counselor who values your authenticity, autonomy, and self-expression. It is a great honor for me to support those who may not fit into the boxes of mainstream norms and to be present as you navigate life’s challenges. I may be a good fit for you if you are looking for someone who “gets it” and is ready to meet you as who you are. I might also be a good fit if you have been masking your true self for as long as you can remember and are looking for a space to just be.

I work with children and young adults identifying as neurodivergent and/ or as members of the LGBTQ+ community. In our work together, we can work to process and heal trauma, develop your sense of identity, and make meaning from your complex feelings, thoughts, and experiences.

Danay Roman

With over 10 years of experience in the mental health field, I understand that reaching out for counseling can sometimes feel overwhelming or even a little intimidating. Taking that first step can feel overwhelming or bring about some nervousness, and my goal is to make the experience feel as comfortable, welcoming, and stress-free as possible.

I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and Human Resource Management from King’s College and my Master’s degree in School Counseling K-12 from the University of Scranton. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and have worked in a variety of mental health settings and roles, including clinical intake, outpatient therapy, and family therapy. These experiences have given me a deep understanding of how important it is for people to feel heard, respected, and comfortable when seeking support.

As the first point of contact, I enjoy getting to know each person and helping them feel at ease from the very beginning. I understand that picking up the phone or reaching out for counseling can be difficult, and I want every person to know that they are welcomed, heard, and never judged. I take the time to listen to what someone is looking for and help connect them with a therapist who may be the right fit for their individual needs and preferences.
I believe that seeking counseling is not a sign of weakness, but rather a positive and proactive step toward healing, personal growth, and overall well-being. Whether someone is reaching out for the first time or has been in counseling before, I want to help make the process feel less intimidating and remind them that they don't have to navigate it alone.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my husband, our four children, and our pets. You can usually find me cheering on my kids at their sporting events, playing with my dogs, or relaxing with an episode of Friends. My family and pets keep life busy, meaningful, and full of plenty of moments to smile about!

Remy

Our practice mascot - Remy!

Remy was found by a good samaritan at a bus stop in Texas. He was being taken care of in an overcrowded facility when Michelle Zapotoski came across his profile online. Michelle was able to adopt him and the rescue organization transported him all the way to PA. It was love at first treat!

In a therapy session, you can expect to be greeted by Remy when you get here. After that he typically will lay on his bed. He is also sensitive to crying and will take it upon himself to be a canine tissue for you if you would like! If not, Remy can be kept on a leash with Michelle for the session. He has been through a lot in his short life and we are so grateful to have him with us everyday!
