Sean K. Borris, LMFT
Therapist & Owner
Hi, I'm Sean. I've been a licensed Marriage & Family Therapist for over ten years. My therapeutic work is motivated by my core belief that all people are able to create change in their lives. I work with individuals over age 14, college students, couples, and families. I have extensive experience in treating trauma, anxiety, depression, parenting struggles, marital issues, addiction, life transitions, and general stressors. I holds post-licensure certification in treating trauma and am trained in Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT). I am also interested in neuroscience, and the impact of nutrition on mental health.
My approach to therapy is based in general systems theory - a fancy way of saying: therapy that treats the individual as a whole. Therapy, to me, is about revisiting experiences and discovering new ways of coping. I don't ask "how do you feel about that" upteen times! A typical session with me is a client-led processing experience. We'll check in on the events since the previous session, decide what the goal of the session should be, and discuss various ways to work through problems or challenges.
​
I decided to become a therapist after realizing that I was the friend all my friends came to for help. I realized that helping people is my life's passion. I chose Marriage & Family therapy because I appreciate the focus on relational patterns and systems.
For fun, I enjoy fencing, playing Dungeons & Dragons, and making ice cream.

Amanda Caldwell, LCSW
Therapist
Hi! I'm Amanda
​
If you are looking for an attuned and attentive listener, a safe space to open up, and support in navigating life’s challenges, I would be honored to walk alongside you. The struggles of day-to-day life, emotional turmoil, anxiety, and trauma can create barriers that feel overwhelming—but healing, growth, and peace are possible.
My approach is holistic and client-centered, meaning I value the whole person and hold your unique preferences, values, and needs in high regard. By considering all the factors that make you you, I strive to create an inclusive environment where self-reflection, healing, and growth feel more accessible.
​
Clients who have worked with me might describe me as dedicated, compassionate, caring, and an advocate in their corner. Sessions are guided by what feels most important to you in the moment, creating space for you to feel heard, supported, and validated.
​
I draw from a variety of therapeutic approaches to create an individualized experience tailored to your goals and needs. I feel especially comfortable incorporating techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, and person-centered therapy. Guided by honesty, compassion, and empathy, my goal is to work alongside you to build a personalized toolbox for healing, growth, and greater peace.
Charlene DeRito, LPC
Therapist
Hi, I'm Charlene, a dedicated therapist who believes in the power of creativity to foster healing. In our sessions, I often incorporate art, music, games, and other therapeutic tools to create a dynamic and engaging environment tailored to each client's unique needs.
My approach is eclectic and client-centered, drawing from a variety of evidence-based modalities, including: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Gestalt Therapy, and the Gottman Method. I work with individuals aged 5 and up, specializing in areas such as PTSD, anxiety, depression, domestic violence, couples counseling, and custody concerns.
A typical session with me begins by meeting you where you are in the present moment. We'll start with a check-in and then delve into the concerns you wish to address. My goal is for you to leave each session feeling heard, supported, and with a sense of relief.
My passion for helping others was ignited in childhood, inspired by a therapist who made a significant impact on my life. This led me to pursue a career in counseling, where I've been privileged to support clients in various capacities for over a decade. Looking ahead, I aspire to integrate a trained therapy dog into my practice to further enhance the therapeutic experience.
If you're ready to embark on a journey toward healing and growth, I'm here to support you every step of the way. Reach out today and let's chat!
Kaitlyn Borris
Owner, Director of Connection & Growth
Hey! I'm Kaitlyn.
I'm responsible for all things social media, website design & upkeep, community outreach, marketing, recruitment, policy development, and maintaining our blog., as well as being co-owner of CCTS. I love details, data, organization, and research. Don't judge ;) I have years of experience in social work in Westmoreland & Allegheny county and am knowledgeable of many resources available in our community and am sensitive to the barriers people face to those resources. While I am not a therapist, I have built my career on helping people; at Caring Conversations, this passion goes into maintaining our resource binders, having a presence in the community and ensuring that our practice is as accessible as it can be. We always say - we want you to find healing, even if it isn't with us. My favorite part of working at CCTS is making sure we have connecgtions in the community to refer people to if we are not a good fit for any reason.
For fun, I enjoy traveling and researching places to travel. My ultimate bucket list trip is a cruise around the world. I love music, and find it incredibly healing. I enjoy a good book and all things Disney.
