NaShonne Watson, MA, CCTP - Virtual Psychotherapist
“In everything you do, be encouraged”
-Brenda Tucker, PhD
I am Nashonne Watson, a Masters level Clinician with 11 years experience. My approach to counseling focuses on building a strong helping relationship by creating a safe space for you to grow, learn, and heal. In my years of practice, I have fine tuned my skills and gained so much practical experience from a variety of counseling settings. I received my training at Temple University’s Social Work program and Alvernia University’s Community Counseling program. There I learned to work with individuals and couples across the life span. One of my specialties is helping people to get unstuck and gain clarity to move forward with life. I currently treat depression, anxiety, work/life balance, relationship stress, marital conflict, grief and loss, and unresolved trauma.
Zeely Edwards, M.A- Lead Virtual Psychotherapist
I am a Mastered Level Clinician with over 10 years of experience in providing support to adolescents, teenagers, young adults, parents, veterans, and seniors within a diversity amount of settings. Individuals facing difficulties connected to stress, anxiety, trauma, self-esteem, stress management, grief/loss, relationships, parenting, or addiction, can benefit from therapy. My goal is to invest in client’s treatment, goals and development by providing a safe environment for clients to be heard and to grow.
I start by meeting clients where they are mentally, emotionally, and developmentally. I will work with the clients by identifying/solving problems, setting/achieving goals, and healing from past trauma, addiction, and other issues. I will provide support in processing feelings and emotions, developing coping tactics, and improving your emotional wellness.
Committed to creating a safe space telephonically and allowing access to therapy from the comfort of your own home. I look forward to assisting you on your journey towards growth and long-lasting change.

“Your greatest self has been waiting your whole life; don’t make it wait any longer”
-Dr. Steve Maraboli
I am a National Board for Certified Counselor who is trained in trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy. My area of expertise focuses on anxiety disorders, trauma, depression, body issues, low self-esteem, communication and conflict issues.
When therapy is in a trustworthy and safe environment, it can open so many opportunities for self-exploration. In therapy, your job is to tell your story wholeheartedly. My role as a therapist is to listen, help teach new skills, and challenge you to see new ways to live your life.
Working together, we can tap into your personal essence and unleash your potential.
Dymond Johnson, M.A in progress- Intern
I obtained my Bachelor's degree from Penn State University in 2015 and I began my Master’s in Counseling at Arcadia University in 2019. My concentration is trauma-focused therapy. I am currently in my final year, where my main focus is interning and providing evidence-based treatment to my clients. In my experience, I have worked with children, adjudicated adolescents, and young adults to navigate difficult transitions and address presenting issues. I also have experience working with individuals with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities (I/DD) as well as individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and their families. The modalities I use are humanistic, CBT, and solution-focused. I believe that everyone's process is different, so I offer support to my clients in ways that are tailored to their needs.
