Heather Wyatte, LMFT

When we aren’t home snuggling with our two pups, my husband and I often spend time with our beloved nieces and nephew. In addition to visits with family and friends, I enjoy reading, puzzles and games, travel, working out, and walks with my dogs. As a Philly sports fan, I enthusiastically root for the Phillies, the Eagles, and the 76ers. And every fall I compete in a couple Fantasy Football leagues.

I started practicing marriage and family therapy in 2020. My journey to becoming an LMFT included 5 years as a social worker helping adults with serious mental health issues, often in crisis settings. While working in early childhood education, I obtained a Child Development Associate, which enhances my work with children and families. I am currently training in EMDR and have extensive training in DBT, which is helpful with intensely troubled individuals and teens. Areas I have additional training include: emotionally focused therapy, Gottman Couples therapy, and play therapy.

Christine Hurzeler, MA, NCC

Reaching out for support takes courage, especially when life feels particularly heavy, busy, or unclear. You deserve a moment to pause, feel genuinely heard and understood, express your authentic self, and process what you have been carrying without the pressure of having it all figured out. Therapy is your time, a safe space to turn off the noise and hear yourself think. Together, we can figure out how to handle life's challenges on your own terms.
I view therapy as a collaborative process that honors your lived experience while helping you reconnect with your values, strengths, and inner resilience. My approach is strengths based, holistic, and rooted in the humanistic belief that we are all capable of growth, healing, and learning how to navigate the world in a way that works best for us. I draw from a variety of evidence based practices that allow me to best tailor therapy to the person’s strengths and needs.
I work with individuals across the lifespan, with a particular focus on adolescents, teenagers, and young adults. I have had the pleasure of working with people of diverse backgrounds and life experiences. My professional journey has allowed me to help those facing various stressors and obstacles, including challenges with mood disruptions, perfectionism, anxiety, emotional regulation, and self-worth.
I welcome the opportunity to walk alongside you, moving forward at your own pace.

I love engaging in anything creative, including painting, crochet, and sculpting. Hiking through woodsy areas and on trails brings me joy, especially when I have one of my labradors by my side. I also enjoy experimenting with gluten-free baking, with my current favorite to make being cinnamon rolls. A fun fact about me is that I enjoy Slalom water skiing, which my dad taught me how to do!ext goes here
My work has focused primarily on supporting people with mood and anxiety concerns, self-esteem and identity challenges, grief and loss, executive functioning difficulties, emotional regulation and control, and academic stress.
I began my work in behavioral health in 2023, supporting adults with developmental differences as they build greater independence. Since then, I have worked in outpatient nonprofit and educational settings. In these roles, I was able to support people navigating various obstacles, from life stressors to complex mental health disorders. I have supported adolescents and adults, providing therapy for a range of emotional, behavioral, and life challenges.
My educational background includes a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from West Chester University and Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Immaculata University.

how does the therapy process work?

First, we meet with the individual, couple, or family in order to identify which type of therapy would best fit their needs. We customize our therapeutic approach based on each client, utilizing various forms of therapy. That said, when clients have a specific type of therapy that they are requesting, such as EMDR, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for instance, we are happy to utilize their preferred method. We see therapy as a collaborative process that we adjust and modify together as needed. Our office includes a separate playroom area for kids of all ages, and we offer therapy sessions Monday through Friday in person or virtually.
