Rischa Burrell, LPC — Therapist in Pennsylvania

Hi there, I'm Rischa!

I provide compassionate, individualized therapy for adults and teens. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, and substance use issues using evidence-based approaches. I have a passion for supporting individuals through life transitions, postpartum mental health challenges, and grief.

My focus

I work with young adults through midlife adults who are experiencing anxiety, depression, substance use concerns, and lifestyle transitions. Many clients feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected and are seeking clarity, balance, and emotional support during times of change.

My approach

My approach to therapy is integrative and tailored to each client. I draw from psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, and humanistic frameworks to support insight, emotional processing, and practical coping skills. Therapy is collaborative, flexible, and grounded in meeting clients where they are.

My communication style

My communication style is warm, open, and approachable. Sessions are grounded and conversational, with an emphasis on emotional safety, reflection, and honesty. I bring empathy, authenticity, and gentle humor into the work while remaining attentive and engaged, creating an environment where clients feel seen, heard, and encouraged.

My journey to mental healthcare

Becoming a therapist aligns with who I've always been. My work is purposeful and chosen - a calling rooted in spirituality, grace, and healing.

My goals for you

I approach goal setting collaboratively and with flexibility. Together, we identify what feels most important and realistic, using reflection and ongoing dialogue to guide treatment. Goals are revisited and adjusted to align with each client's values and progress.

Our first session

The first session is an opportunity to explore what brings you to therapy and to begin getting familiar with one another. We'll discuss your background, current concerns, and goals. I invite your questions and reflections as we move at a pace that feels supportive and easeful.
