About Mindy

Mindy Forman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 23 years of experience. She works with adults managing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, addiction concerns, and issues around self-esteem and parenting. Her profile includes work with trauma and abuse, grief, ADHD, and life transitions, and she also lists specialties such as attachment and adoption-related concerns.

Mindy focuses on practical conversation and steady support. She aims to help people name what feels heavy and sort through the next steps. Sessions are described as collaborative - the client’s goals guide the pace and topics.

Her background includes long experience across a range of presenting problems, including foster care and adoption matters, blended family issues, caregiver stress, and chronic illness concerns. That variety informs how she notices patterns in relationships and day-to-day coping.

In session Mindy draws on a mix of approaches. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotion regulation, and Attachment-Based ideas to look at relational patterns. Mindfulness techniques are used to slow down and notice bodily or emotional reactions.

Clients can expect straightforward language, practical practices, and collaborative planning. The focus is on managing current stressors and building skills that fit ordinary life. To begin, readers are asked to use the site’s matching process to schedule an initial appointment and discuss session options.

How her approaches shape online sessions

Mindy uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients notice and change patterns of thinking and behaving that keep distress going. CBT often involves short exercises and homework to practice new ways of responding outside of sessions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills focus on emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication; these are useful when strong feelings or relationship conflict are central concerns.

Attachment-Based Therapy informs how she looks at recurring relationship patterns and how early bonds influence present reactions. That approach can help when shame or guilt are tied to family history, adoption, or caregiver roles. Together the approaches give space for both skill-building and discussion of relational roots.

Finding the right fit is a collaborative task. She will work with each person to choose which methods to use based on the client’s goals, needs, and comfort. Clients can expect the therapist to suggest practical exercises and check in about how those tools are working between sessions.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time. Many people find that doing skills practice in their usual routines helps them apply what they discuss with a licensed professional.
