Welcome to JMW Counseling LLC

We believe counseling works best by providing a comfortable space where clients can feel safe to explore and improve themselves freely and without judgement.

Our Promise

At JMW Counseling, we believe that everyone deserves a safe, supportive space where they can feel heard, understood, and accepted.

Our goal is to walk alongside you as you navigate life’s challenges, heal from difficult experiences, and reconnect with your inner strengths. We take the time to listen to your concerns, understand your unique experiences, and create a personalized treatment plan that feels right for you.

There is no one-size-fits-all approach to therapy. We utilize a variety of therapeutic techniques, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Person-Centered Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), to meet you where you are and support you along your journey.

Whether you are struggling with a current challenge or simply feel ready for a change, you don't have to navigate it alone. At JMW Counseling, we are here to provide a compassionate, judgment-free environment where you can begin to heal, grow, and feel more like yourself again

All your appointments will take place in our soothing office environment with private therapy rooms, complimentary tea and water, and individualized care.

    Welcome! I am the owner of JMW Counseling LLC. I graduated from Keystone College in 2014 with a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology, and completed my Master’s degree in Rehabilitation Counseling in 2017 from the University of Scranton. I obtained my Ph.D. in Counselor Education and Supervision from Capella University. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, Certified Rehabilitation Counselor, and a Certified Psychiatric Rehabilitation Practitioner.

    Our practice specializes in Substance Abuse, Mental Health, Career Counseling, Eating Disorders, Disability, and Advocacy. I have over 8 years of experience in the field. My prior experience includes working as a manager in a mental health group home, a case manager for children and adolescents, and working as a counselor for co-occurring populations.

  • Ashley Urso, LPC

    Hi there! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I received my undergraduate degree in Psychology from Shippensburg University in 2015, my master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Scranton in 2018, and my License in Professional Counseling in 2020. Within my eight years of experience, I have worked within many different specialties including therapeutic staff support, outpatient therapy, inpatient psychiatric services, marriage and family therapy, sex offender treatment, and group therapy.

    I have an eclectic approach in which I offer a combination of person-centered therapy, strengths-based, and cognitive behavioral therapy. In 2021 I was trained in EMDR, and I am currently trained in Level 1 Gottman Therapy. I am working towards Level 2 and will continue training within the Gottman Institute. I have experience working with anxiety, depression, trauma, and adjustment disorders and work with individuals age 12 and older. I feel as though therapy is a place in which an individual should be allowed to discuss fears, hopes, dreams, and everything in between without judgement and with the utmost level of unconditional positive regard.

A native to NEPA, I graduated from the University of Scranton in 2015 with a B.S. in Counseling/Human Services and a minor in Psychology. With early acceptance in to the Accelerated M.S. Program, I continued on in my education and earned my Master’s Degree in PK-12 School Counseling in 2017.

My experiences include working with adolescents and young adults encountering difficulties with depression, anxiety, gender identity issues, self-esteem, grief, attention disorders, self-harm, coping skills, and peer relationships.

    I view therapy as a collaborative, “team” effort, in which I provide a safe environment to help clients work through life’s challenges and collectively set attainable goals. I strive to develop a positive, supportive relationship with each client and understand how important that is to the success of the work that we do together. With a person centered approach, my goal is to assist individuals in reaching their fullest potential by highlighting their strengths and helping them work through their areas of growth and healing.

  • TIM O’driscoll, M.S, LAPC, CRC

    Céad Míle Fáilte—A thousand welcomes. Inspired by my Irish heritage, I aim to offer a counseling space that feels warm, genuine, and welcoming from the very first conversation.

    As a Certified Rehabilitation Counselor (CRC) and Licensed Associate Professional Counselor (LAPC), my mission is to walk alongside you with compassion, hope, and steady guidance. I work with adults, adolescents (ages 12 and up), and couples, offering a collaborative and compassionate approach to therapy. I aim to provide thoughtful, steady care that supports you through life’s challenges, transitions, and periods of uncertainty.

    Many people reach out feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure of their next step. In our work together, we’ll slow things down and create space for you to feel truly heard. From there, we gently explore what’s been weighing on you while building insight, practical tools, and resilience to support meaningful, lasting change. I work with a range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, OCD, addiction, codependency, disability-related issues, and relationship stress. Treatment is collaborative and informed by each client’s goals and values.

    When working with couples, I use the Gottman Method Couples Therapy and have completed Level 1 Training, with Level 2 Training currently in progress. Grounded in the Sound Relationship House Theory, our work focuses on rebuilding trust and emotional safety, while strengthening friendship and communication through skills such as managing conflict, deepening fondness and admiration, and creating shared meaning. I also use Gottman assessments to identify relationship strengths and recurring patterns, allowing treatment to be tailored to each couple’s needs. Together, we work to improve communication, repair trust, and move out of painful cycles toward greater understanding and connection.

    I know how heavy life can feel at times. I’m committed to creating a safe, inclusive, and welcoming environment where you feel supported and at ease. My approach blends evidence-based therapies with mindfulness and self-compassion, guided by your inner wisdom. Together, we’ll work toward a life—and relationships—that feel more authentic, connected, and fulfilling.

I received a MS in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Scranton, PA, earned a BFA in Technical Theatre from the Professional Theatre Training Program, University of Wisconsin, and embody a lifetime of experiences between these two diverse worlds.

    As an Existential/Humanistic therapist, I honor the opportunity to accompany you while defining values and finding meaning; to genuinely see you, hear you, and witness your healing journey while compassionately encouraging your authentic Self to emerge. With a colorful background in the arts, theatre/dance, yoga, medical qigong, and extensive work with 14+ through college populations, I offer an accepting sensibility, artistic sensitivity, and empathic awareness to assist you in making meaningful adjustments to life.

    Utilizing a holistic approach with evidence-based practices and experiential modalities such as artwork, creative expression, movement, music, writing, role play, breathing, tapping, and fostering moments in nature, I aim to inspire hope and empower change.

    I welcome the chance to help you navigate challenging times with a fresh approach and renewed energy toward revealing inner wisdom; allowing what cannot be said to be freely expressed. I respect the work that must be done and believe that it need not be done alone.
