About Whitney

Whitney Thomas is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Pennsylvania who helps people coping with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, mood concerns such as depression and bipolar, and challenges like ADHD and grief.

Background and approach

She emphasizes a collaborative, person-centered relationship that begins by listening to each client's unique story and priorities. With 14 years of experience in mental health, Whitney draws on practical skills developed in psychiatric rehabilitation and community mental health settings to support clients as they navigate life changes, relationship and family difficulties, anger, and self-esteem struggles.

Her training includes a master’s degree in Community Mental Health Counseling and professional licensure obtained after years of direct practice. Whitney integrates client-centered principles with evidence-based techniques to tailor sessions to individual needs, encouraging open discussion of both accomplishments and setbacks without judgment.

She continues professional development in trauma-informed care and combines individual and group approaches when appropriate, aiming to help people identify workable strategies and build resilience over time.

How Whitney Blends Approaches for Online Care

Client-centered therapy emphasizes an empathetic, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist mirrors and supports a client's own values and goals; it helps when someone needs a reflective space to explore feelings, identity, and personal growth. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and building practical skills and behavioral changes to reduce symptoms like anxiety, depression, and difficulties with coping.

Choosing the right therapeutic approach is treated as a collaborative process. Whitney will work with each person to understand their needs, goals, and preferences and then combine client-centered listening with CBT techniques when that fits the situation. She aims to tailor interventions rather than relying on a single method so that the plan evolves with the client's progress.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and accessibility. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, continue care during life changes, and maintain regular contact between appointments when appropriate. Licensed professionals can use these formats to provide consistent, ongoing support adjusted to a client’s routine and comfort.
