About Najah

Dr. Najah Barton is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Pennsylvania with over 10 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, self‑esteem, and coaching. Najah also works with people facing issues such as attachment struggles, chronic illness and pain, codependency, and life changes like divorce or separation.

Her approach is straightforward and collaborative. She listens and helps people notice how they respond to stressful situations. From there she offers concrete steps to reduce overwhelm and build clearer boundaries. Sessions aim to make day-to-day life feel more manageable rather than offering quick fixes.

Najah uses several evidence-informed ways of working. Client-Centered Therapy guides the pace of sessions around the person’s priorities. Motivational Interviewing supports people who want to make changes but feel stuck. Solution-Focused work looks for small, practical shifts that add up over time.

She has particular experience with veterans and professionals who carry heavy responsibility and find it hard to slow down. Najah also supports those affected by domestic violence, family of origin problems, and post-traumatic stress. The emphasis is on clear steps people can try between sessions to test what helps.

Therapy is conducted in English. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Payment uses a cancelable subscription model that varies with location.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client’s priorities and pace. The therapist listens closely and helps people clarify what matters most. This approach can help when someone feels overwhelmed or unsure where to start.

Motivational Interviewing is a conversational method for people who want change but feel stuck. It helps identify personal reasons for change and builds small, realistic steps toward those goals. This is useful for motivation around relationships, boundaries, or behavior shifts.

Najah treats choosing an approach as a team effort. She will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them as progress is made.

Specific session formats were not listed in the biography, so confirm the available options before booking. Many people find online work helpful for fitting therapy into a busy life, for shorter check-ins, or for meeting without a commute. Licensed professionals can use these formats to make consistent progress while balancing everyday responsibilities.
