About Misty
Misty Mancini Seybert helps people cope with stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, grief, depression, parenting challenges, and trauma. She brings 22 years of experience as a clinician and educator to each session. Misty practices in Pennsylvania and holds credentials as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and a Licensed Professional Counselor.
Her style is direct and warm. She listens first, then helps people set clear, manageable goals. Conversations focus on what a person is facing now and what practical steps can make a difference.
Background and approach
Sessions often include skill building, problem-solving, and exploring patterns that keep old difficulties active. Misty uses approaches that include client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, and dialectical behavior ideas when those fit a person's needs. She also draws on existential and psychodynamic perspectives to help people understand meaning and recurring patterns.
The mix depends on each person’s concerns and goals. She has taught psychology and counseling courses since 2001, both online and in person. That background informs how she explains concepts and teaches new skills in simple terms.
It also shapes her focus on practical strategies people can use between sessions. Misty is comfortable including faith or spiritual values when clients want that as part of therapy. She aims to respect each client’s beliefs while keeping attention on emotional and behavioral change.
Below the surface, the work supports growth, resilience, and clearer choices about relationships and life direction.
Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Misty often blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral techniques. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and helping people feel understood before moving forward. It helps people gain confidence and speak openly about what matters to them. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns and reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression.Finding the right approach is part of the early work. Misty will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and comfort level. That means trying skill practice, exploring life meaning, or working on emotion regulation together based on what the person needs.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions let people use visual cues and longer conversations. Phone sessions can be quicker or helpful when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for short check-ins, skill coaching, or when writing feels easier than talking. These options aim to make therapy more flexible so people can fit work on emotions and behavior into busy lives.
