Connie Harrington, LPC

Connie Harrington is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 22 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage depression, anxiety, grief, and relationship stress. Connie takes a calm, straightforward approach so clients can talk about what matters most and find practical ways forward.

She often helps people facing midlife changes, workplace pressure, and shifting family roles. She pays close attention to issues that affect women, social anxiety, aging, and caregiver stress. Sessions aim to make overwhelming feelings easier to understand and act on.

Her style blends several well-known approaches. Connie uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult thoughts without getting stuck. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful patterns and build new coping habits. Client-centered work keeps the focus on each person’s goals and values.

Connie also incorporates relationship-focused techniques, including elements of the Gottman Method, when relationship patterns are part of the concern. Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change and stick with it.

People meet Connie to sort through family strain, parenting stress, career questions, feelings of emptiness, or guilt and shame. She guides clients in making concrete changes, improving communication, and regaining a sense of purpose.

To begin, people can complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on the therapist’s availability.

How Connie’s Approaches Translate to Online Therapy

Connie uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice painful thoughts and feelings without letting them drive behavior. ACT is useful for stress, anxiety, and life transitions where acceptance and valued action can reduce struggle.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and practice new skills. CBT is practical and goal-focused, often helping with depression, anxiety, and coping strategies in daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Connie will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then shape sessions to fit those needs in a collaborative way.

Session options are not specified here, so confirm current formats before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter or more flexible check-ins when needed. They also let people use quieter surroundings or avoid being on camera if that helps them focus. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT and CBT exercises to work well in remote meetings and help people build practical habits between sessions.
