About Sorinthia
Sorinthia Varnell is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Pennsylvania with 12 years of experience. She focuses on helping people through tough life changes, anxiety, stress, and grief. She also supports work on self-esteem and family-related concerns.
Her style is direct and compassionate, aimed at practical steps rather than vague talk. Sorinthia often helps people untangle attachment and abandonment issues and work through family-of-origin patterns that keep coming up.
How Sorinthia works
She also provides a space for conversations about sexuality, including BDSM, kink, and alternative sex culture, and for people exploring polyamory or non-monogamous relationships. Money and life purpose questions are part of her practical focus. Her approach uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to teach coping skills and to process painful experiences.
Sessions often include concrete strategies that people can try between meetings. She emphasizes self-love, forgiveness, and building resilience over time. Sorinthia aims to create an affirming environment where clients can speak honestly without judgment.
She draws on a mix of methods to meet each person where they are and to help them move toward clearer goals. The work is collaborative and paced to the client’s needs. She provides services in English and does not accept international clients.
Therapy sessions are offered through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, and use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

Evidence-informed approaches and online care
Many clients benefit from short-term skills work that focuses on managing anxiety and stress. This approach teaches concrete coping techniques like breathing exercises, grounding methods, and activity planning to reduce overwhelm and improve daily functioning. It is useful for people facing life transitions or persistent worry.Another common focus is processing painful experiences and relationships through guided conversation and reflection. This work helps people understand attachment and abandonment patterns, family-of-origin dynamics, and issues around sexuality or non-traditional relationship structures so they can make clearer choices about their relationships and values.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and try different techniques to see what fits best. Sessions are paced to the client’s needs and adjusted over time as goals change.
Online therapy is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video is useful for full conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Chat and messaging let people share between sessions or check in around busy schedules. These options make it easier to keep momentum and fit therapy into everyday life.
