Nicole Carrita

I am a licensed professional counselor in the state of pennsylvania with over 14 years of mental health experience. Before the pandemic, I started working with children and adolescents. However, since the pandemic, I have graciously dusted off the dust on my books to work with adults. While I still prefer working with children and adolescents, I do enjoy working with mothers. As an single woman myself, I understand the daily struggles of juggling molding children into little humans, working, managing a home, paying bills, and somehow finding time in the midst for taking care of yourself. I use a caring and compassionate approach. I use dialectical behavioral therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy and am in the process of becoming eye movement desensitization reprocessing certified. I have a substantial amount of experience working with children and adolescents with autism. Though, I do not subscribe to the applied behavior analysis program. I do enjoy working with individuals with eating disorders also. I subscribe to medication management and work great with other providers to ensure continuity of care is provided in the best way possible. I enjoy working with domestic violence and am an activist against stigma in the mental health community.

If you have recently ended a relationship and would like to discuss the grief associated with this, going to college, struggling to adjust to adulthood, academia, or the career force, I am your go to therapist. If you come from a family of addictions and feel alone, I would love to help you heal from the pain of being taken advantage of family members with a substance use disorder.

If you are down on life and feel impacted by the global pandemic and recent events of the world, I am you go to therapist. I come with over 20 years in public service and helping the community. I look forward to meeting you.

Please note that clients who are most successful and have the best outcomes in their mental health, are those that are open to feedback, open to the process, do not expect immediate results, and work with the therapist, rather than against the therapist. Here on online therapy, I have a 0 tolerance for verbal abuse insults or other abusive tactics by clients. This is not the appropriate treatment if you are struggling with being the primary aggressor in domestic violence.

Please note I do not work with court ordered clients. If you need an evaluation completed for court, I am not the appropriate provider. I can, and am willing to, however, work with clients who do have legal involvement if that is not your primary reason for treatment.

I am an ally for LGBTQIA 🏳️‍🌈
