Anthony Locascio, MA, LPC, LBS, CAADC.
Anthony Locascio has been practicing therapy since 2014. Therapy is a collaborative experience where we work together on the reasons why you came to therapy. Through the growth and the development of the therapeutic relationship the reasons why you come to therapy can be explored in a safe and friendly environment so that you can become the person that you want to be.
I seek to further my understanding of the human condition which has lead to a deeper understanding of psychology and increased insight into human behavior. I have experience with addiction, ADHD, anxiety, depression, autism, vocational counseling, relationship counseling as well as alcohol counseling.
I look forward to building a warm, friendly and professional relationship with you as a client. I encourage you to reach out to see if it is a good fit.
I am currently licensed as a licensed professional counselor in the states of PA, WV and AZ.
Diomarys Nunez, MA, LPC.
My clients have worked through their grief, finding a healthier work/life balance, and have gotten to a place where they can do their best to live a life that’s aligned with their values. My clients are people who want to break away from maladaptive generational cycles and trauma. They want to feel closer to their lineage by exploring different aspects of themselves and their culture. My clients recognize that in order to be a good ancestor for generations after them, they have to put in the work now by unlearning and training their brains to disengage from behaviors that no longer serve them. Diomarys is licensed in the state of PA.
I work with individuals, couples, and families. I have helped clients navigate issues in the following areas: grief and loss, perinatal mental health, women’s issues, cultural identity issues, and perfectionism. My goal is to help folks live a life aligned with their values and disengage from cycles that no longer serve them. Therapy can feel overwhelming. Take the first step and reach out! I am more than glad to help guide you and work with you collaboratively. Together, we can help you feel more alive and ready for a healthier version of you.

Brianna Boriosi, MA, LPC.
Hello! Thank you for taking the time to read about me and my experience. I have a Master’s Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, I am a Certified Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I am licensed in the state of PA.
I have worked in the field for approximately 10 years with adults, adolescents, families, and couples, treating a variety of substance use, mental health, and co-occurring disorders.
I believe it is important to utilize a person-centered and strength-based approach to meet you where you’re at in terms of willingness and therapy goals. I primarily lean towards techniques from the CBT and DBT modalities. I believe in using de-escalation and grounding techniques to first regulate your body and allow you to thoroughly process your thoughts and emotions.
My goal is to create a safe, open, and non-judgmental space so my clients can learn to live their lives to their highest potential. I believe in respect and the freedom of choice, meaning my role is to simply help assist and support you in achieving your personal goals. I look forward to working with you!

Carl Heffermehl, MA, LPC.
I am a licensed professional counselor with experience working with individuals to help them with depression, anxiety, trauma, addiction, relationships, and interpersonal issues across their life. I mainly work with individuals, one-on-one, but have worked with couples and families, and troubled populations like youth on probation. My goal is to help individuals find a balance in their life where they are able to reduce their mental health stress/impact, and their overall life stress, by establishing and implementing healthy balance, coping skills, and boundaries in their life to improve not only their life, but their sense of self.
I have the most experience with anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction and interpersonal relationships, I also have experience with ADHD, paranoia, bi-polar, and schizophrenia. I use modality’s such as CBT, person-centered, solution-focused, interpersonal, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing to help individuals identify/challenge negative behaviors and patterns in their life.
My approach to therapy is just being myself, a welcoming, humorous, and empathetic person who loves to help others as a whole. I do this to help build a great, deep, and real relationship with my clients, and establish trust and help us work together to challenge/break down the struggles they are facing, and build themselves back up to who they want to be now.
