Dr. Jeannine Pablo
Psychologist, LP, LCMHC, MLADC
My life’s work is dedicated to helping individuals step out of survival mode and reclaim their autonomy, clarity, and peace. Throughout my two decades as a practicing clinician, I have learned that true growth requires moving far beyond traditional "talk therapy." Real, sustainable change happens when we actively bridge the gap between clinical insight and daily, practical action.
Living with deep-seated anxiety, complex trauma, ADHD, or the heavy weight of addiction can make your world feel incredibly small, exhausting, and isolated. My mission is to provide you with an entirely safe, collaborative, and non-judgmental space where your story is met with deep clinical expertise and genuine human reverence. Because no two individuals share the same path, I do not believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Whether we are utilizing EMDR to safely reprocess traumatic triggers, implementing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to disarm intrusive thought patterns, or applying holistic strategies to regulate a highly stressed nervous system, our work will be entirely tailored to your unique biology, history, and goals.
As a dually licensed Clinical Psychologist and Master Level Alcohol and Other Drug Counselor (MLADC), I specialize in untangling co-occurring disorders. I am uniquely equipped to help you heal the psychological pain and trauma that so often drive compulsive or self-sabotaging behaviors. I look at your mental health through an integrative lens, honoring the profound connection between your mind, your physical body, and your lifestyle.
By transitioning my practice to a fully virtual, telehealth format, I have intentionally removed the logistical barriers of traditional therapy. You no longer have to navigate commutes, traffic, or crowded waiting rooms to access elite psychological care. Our sessions take place entirely online, allowing you to process your most vulnerable challenges from the absolute safety, comfort, and anonymity of your own chosen space. You do not have to walk the path of recovery or self-discovery alone. Together, we will uncover your inherent strengths, quiet your inner critic, and build the concrete, daily tools you need to live a life aligned with your true values and authentic potential.

Dr. Brian Sharpless
Psychologist, Ph.D., Clinical Psychology; M.A., Philosophy
Hi! I am a clinical psychologist (PhD) trained at Penn State and the University of Pennsylvania. Though I treat a number of conditions (e.g., anxiety, depression, trauma), I have a great deal of experience helping people with personality disorders, sleep disorders, rare/unusual psychological conditions, and clinical problems which have been formerly resistant to treatment. Along with my practice, I stay active in the field through research, publications (i.e., books and articles), and other professional work. I particularly enjoy living lectures for popular science organizations in the US and abroad. Please visit my website (linked below) for more information.
