Schema Therapy
Peter D. Ruffini
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdS, MA, LPC, LPCMH, ACS, EMDRPT-II
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.

Schema Therapy
Tabitha Echavarria
Psychologist, PsyD
I often work with thoughtful, introspective adults who struggle with depression, anxiety, obsessive thinking, and a deep sense of not quite fitting in. Many are highly caring toward others but much harder on themselves. My work focuses on helping clients move beyond insight alone and experience deeper emotional shifts that allow new patterns to emerge.

Schema Therapy
Loren Soeiro
Psychologist, Ph.D. ABPP
Have you been feeling anxious, unsatisfied, or uncertain? Is there something in your life that once worked, but now doesn't? Many people come to therapy while continuing to meet the demands of work and family, even though they feel an increasing sense of strain or disconnection. So even if you are used to handling such things on your own, some emotional or relationship patterns keep repeating, underneath the surface.
I work especially well with thoughtful, capable adults who want to understand themselves more clearly. Together, we can slow down and look carefully at what’s happening—how your thoughts, emotions, and relationship patterns developed, and how they may be shaping your present life. Greater understanding often brings real relief and steadiness.

Schema Therapy
Dr. Sarah Pouliot
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Psychotherapy is most effective when two people (therapist and client) work together to develop a type of therapeutic relationship that not only seeks to make sense of unfolding dynamics but also provides a safe place from which to explore both the known and unknown. In other words, psychotherapy or counseling should offer a meaningful experience, offering new ways of being, relating, and experiencing. Lasting change becomes possible when we are able to find and apply new ways of thinking and feeling about ourselves and others - new ways of relating or responding to the world in which we live and engage.
