Connie Harrington, LPC

Connie Harrington is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 22 years of experience. She focuses on helping people facing anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship strain. Her work often includes support for parenting stress, career transitions, and feelings like guilt, shame, or jealousy.

Connie draws on practical, evidence-informed methods to help people manage strong emotions and everyday problems. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice what matters and take steps toward those values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and build new coping habits. Client-centered work provides steady listening and reflection while Gottman-informed ideas guide conversations about relationship patterns.

She has a long history of working with life changes that come with aging, caregiving, blended families, and divorce or separation. That experience informs quick, down-to-earth strategies for managing caregiver stress, family conflict, and isolation. Connie also helps people sort through issues of dependence, impulsivity, and finding purpose after major changes.

Sessions focus on clear goals, practical tools, and learning new ways to respond to old patterns. The therapist emphasizes collaboration - clients set priorities and Connie adapts methods to fit their needs. People leave with concrete steps they can try between sessions.

How her approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters and take small actions that align with those values. It is useful for anxiety, low mood, and feeling stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact and teaches specific skills to change patterns that worsen anxiety or depression. Client-Centered Therapy centers the conversation on the person's experience, offering reflective listening and support while clients decide their next steps.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Connie works collaboratively with each person to match methods to their goals and preferences. She checks in about what helps and adjusts tools and homework so they fit everyday life rather than one rigid plan.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also makes some skill practice more accessible between appointments. Ask about available formats when you complete the matching questionnaire so sessions match your needs and routine.
