More about Bina
- 27 years' experience
- Female
- LPC
I am a Professional Counselor licensed in the State of Pennsylvania with over 28 years of experience working as a professional psychological and academic counselor. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, childhood and adult sexual trauma, career challenges, PTSD, OCD, and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.
My therapy style is client-centered: warm, affirmative, non-judgmental, and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. Rather, I focus on client’s strengths, and I am positive in my approach. My therapy style combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psycho-dynamic and rational-emotive therapy. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes a lot of courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards positive and healthy change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you in your journey through our therapy sessions.
I’m available for online therapy sessions with individuals anywhere in the State of Pennsylvania. I graduated from Indiana University of Pennsylvania. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, in the State of Pennsylvania. I look forward to working with you!

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

She gets me
Dr. Soni is a wonderful listener and really cares about her clients. She made me feel comfortable so that I could discuss the issues I was having. Thanks Dr. Soni for helping me “let off the steam” one session at a time!
Dr. Soni is so patient and kind! She always helps to give thoughtful advice and really listens to “you.” She’s is the best therapist I’ve found for my anxiety so far and I just love my 1 hour sessions! Thanks Dr. Soni for being you! And thanks to BetterHelp for giving us these resources!
