Tricia Orscheln, M.Ed., LPC, NCC, CCATP
Meet Tricia
Since earning her Bachelor of Science degree in Sociology in 1996 and her Master of Education degree in Community Agency Counseling from Lincoln University in 1999, Tricia has gained over 25 years of experience working in community mental health-based programs. She has had the privilege of working with individuals who lived with developmental disabilities. In addition she has a great deal of personal experience with severe and persistent mental illness. Her work included counseling those who were addressing their substance use addictions and striving for recovery. She also spent time working with the at-risk youth population.
Tricia was inspired to become a professional in the helping field because of a family member’s life journey, which included living with a mental illness. She personally witnessed the struggle and the strength necessary to travel on a path of healing. She believes in a “whole person” approach to health, and that all dimensions of one’s life are interrelated. She has the ability and passion to empower people she works with to discover their own purpose and to increase their quality of life. She focuses on helping others create their own personal “mental health tool box” for implementing the change process.
Her specialties and experience include: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Illness Management and Recovery, Grief and Bereavement, Mood Disorders, Trauma Recovery & Anger Management, Play Therapy, Wellness Coaching, Anxiety, Depression, Conflict Resolution, Adjustment Issues, Blended Families, LGBTQ Counseling, Mindfulness, Individual Dual Disorders Treatment (substance use) and Positive Change. She is also a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional (CCATP). Tricia is in the process of obtaining her certification as a Clinical Telemental Health Provider.
Tricia offers these specialties to ages 5 and up. She owns and operates the Tree of Hope Counseling and Wellness Center. The Center includes specific rooms for children, individual and family, and physical wellness.
The greatest purpose in Tricia’s life is raising her children, donating her time and talent to her community, and helping others help themselves.
Specialties
Cognitive behavioral & Dialectical behavior therapies
Engaging with CBT can help people reduce stress, cope with complicated relationships, deal with grief, and face many other common life challenges.
With DBT, the term “dialectical” refers to the balance between accepting oneself and making positive changes, emphasizing the integration of seemingly opposing concepts to achieve emotional well-being.
grief and bereavement
Bereavement refers to the state of loss, while grief is the reaction to that loss
Blended Families
Parents and children of blended families must sort out their new roles and set clear, healthy boundaries
