Lynn Michalopoulos (LCSW-C)

I am licensed in Pennsylvania with over 20 years of professional work experience. I work in partnership with individuals and believe that clients have the ability to grow and heal from past traumatic experiences and ongoing daily stressors. I work with clients to create a safe environment to improve emotional-coping and problem-solving skills to address mental health problems such as post-traumatic stress, anxiety and depression. I work with clients that have experienced child abuse and neglect, adult sexual violence and other interpersonal violence. I also work with individuals struggling with racial identity, relationship difficulties and challenges with life transitions. As my work is client-centered and relational, I believe that culture and identity are important aspects of the therapeutic relationship. I use a variety of tools and modalities to address the unique needs of each individual. I believe it is important to use both talk therapy and somatic approaches to treat the whole individual. Some of the modalities within my practice include dialectical behavioral therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and other somatic-focused approaches. I work with my clients to create an environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.
