Dr. Cheryl D La Rotta
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Ph.D, LMHC
I believe that healing isn’t about being 'fixed'; it’s about rediscovering the person you were before challenges told you who to be. My practice is built on the belief that a safe, non-judgmental space is the ultimate catalyst for change. Here, we move at your pace, trading 'shoulds' for self-compassion. Together, we’ll navigate your unique story with a blend of professional expertise and genuine human connection, ensuring you feel seen, heard, and empowered to lead a more authentic life. Your journey will not be alone.

Peter D. Ruffini, Sex & Porn Addiction Expert
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdS, MA, LPC, LPCMH, ACS, EMDRPT-II, CSAT-C
As an award-winning psychotherapist, I specialize in high-impact individual therapy for capable men. With over 15 years of experience and advanced trauma training, I’m known for my work in pornography addiction, sex addiction, and men’s mental health. My practice is frequently sought out by other therapists who refer men facing issues requiring specialized treatment—such as sex and porn addiction, trauma, anger, infidelity, and anxiety. I have also been featured in media speaking about these topics.
As a clinical supervisor, I train other therapists in gold-standard, evidence-based treatments. I provide expert, structured, results-oriented therapy for men who want real change—not generic talk therapy or surface-level coping. Clients reach out when they want depth, direction, and results so if you’re here, you’ve already taken the first step toward real change. See why men across PA, NJ, and DE choose Proven Path Counseling.

Jon Prezant
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, MSW, MA, CST — Sex & Couples Therapist
Maybe desire has gone quiet, or sex has started to feel like a test you keep failing. Maybe you’re trying to recover from a betrayal, or your sexual behavior feels out of your control. Maybe you and your partner keep having the same fight. Sexual and relationship struggles are rarely just about sex, or just about the relationship. They’re tangled up in history, body, culture, and the expectations we’ve absorbed about who we’re supposed to be.
I’m an AASECT-Certified Sex Therapist and LCSW, and I work online with adults and couples. Much of my work is with men (gay, straight, and everywhere in between) and with couples, including gay, queer, and mixed-orientation couples. I also have a deep commitment to Jewish clients, especially gay and queer Jews who have felt isolated or pushed out of community by antisemitism.
I’m direct, warm, and honest. I won’t hand you a script. Therapy with me is a place to build the capacity your life and relationships actually need, so you can be more honest with yourself, more flexible with each other, and less ruled by shame.

Dr. Dana C. Avey
Marriage and Family Therapist, MS, MA, DBH, LMFT, BC-TMH, ADS, CRYT
When we can live as our true, unapologetic selves we can experience fulfillment in our lives and connections with others. I believe every individual holds the power to change and evolve in all the ways they desire to discover and express their authentic self, and my role is to assist you in your discovery process and coming to understand all that this entails.

Maria Jose Rendon
Psychologist, Ph.D.
You're good at what you do. You're that friend or family member that people reach out to for advice. You are the one that keeps things running for everyone else. And yet, you are reaching burnout, putting up with an inner critic that constantly questions whether everything you do is enough. If you are looking to build a more sustainable relationship with your work, connect with me. I support high-achieving professionals navigating imposter syndrome, burnout, and work/life balance.
Many of my clients are first-generation professionals, or professionals at multilateral development orgs (e.g., the World Bank, IDB, IMF) and the government, facing career disruption. I work with late-diagnosed ADHD, autistic, and OCD adults exhausted from masking and ready to understand themselves without pathologizing who they are.
I believe clear goals and measurable progress are a form of respect for your time and your struggle. That's why I offer structure and a goal-oriented framework through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy approaches, delivered entirely through secure video sessions. As an immigrant and first-generation professional myself, I offer a space to build genuine self-understanding, practical skills, and the confidence to advocate for yourself, in English or Spanish, wherever you are.
