About Misty
Misty Mancini Seybert helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, parenting challenges, and relationship struggles. She also supports those coping with trauma, self-esteem concerns, life transitions, and postpartum depression. Misty holds LMHC and LPC credentials and brings 22 years of clinical experience to her work in Pennsylvania.
Misty uses a straightforward, person-focused style. She listens first, then helps people set clear, practical goals. Sessions emphasize skills people can try between meetings and honest conversation about what is and isn’t working.
How Misty works
Her approach blends client-centered listening with practical tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and emotional regulation skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy. She also draws on psychodynamic and existential ideas to help people understand patterns and find meaning when life feels unsettled. Misty has taught psychology and counseling at the undergraduate level since 2001, both online and in person.
That background informs how she explains ideas and builds learning into sessions. She aims to offer a faith-sensitive environment when that is important to the person seeking support. Typical topics Misty addresses include blended family issues, communication problems, caregiver stress, body image and eating concerns, guilt and shame, panic and obsessive-compulsive symptoms, divorce and separation, and coping with disasters.
Her work focuses on helping people find practical ways to manage symptoms and move toward clearer choices and greater resilience.

How her approaches translate to online therapy
Misty often draws on Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) when working with people. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening deeply and building a trusting working relationship so people feel heard and respected; it helps when someone needs space to talk through feelings. CBT teaches practical steps to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and panic. DBT adds concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving communication, useful for people who struggle with strong emotional reactions or relationship conflicts.Misty treats finding the right approach as a team effort. She will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. From there she recommends techniques and adjusts the plan as work progresses so the approach fits the person’s needs.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a quieter conversation is preferred. Live chat and text-based messaging can be used for shorter check-ins, skill practice, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options help people fit sessions into work, caregiving, or busy schedules.
