About Dr. John Howe

Dr. John Howe is a licensed psychologist in Pennsylvania with 35 years of experience working with people who struggle with persistent, compulsive, or disruptive behaviors that reduce satisfaction and strain relationships at home, at work, or in social settings. He focuses on helping individuals recognize how internal disturbances can erode joy, love, and a sense of well being, and on breaking patterns that make frustration, anger, sorrow, loss, and disappointment feel repetitive and predictable.

He offers psychotherapy aimed at changing damaging or unhealthy behaviors so that clients can improve how they relate to others and to themselves. Through careful assessment and treatment, he helps clients become aware of underlying causes, reduce or stop upsetting behaviors, and make healthier, more satisfying choices in daily life.

In addition to longer term psychotherapy, he provides supportive counseling for individuals and couples to address personal or work related concerns, clarify life events, and assist with decision making. He holds the PA Psychologist PS005032L credential, which indicates his licensure as a psychologist in Pennsylvania.

Could Remote Therapy Fit Your Needs?

Many people wonder whether online therapy can make a meaningful difference. For most common concerns - like stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes - online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in person sessions. This makes remote care a practical option for a wide range of emotional and interpersonal issues.

One of the primary benefits is flexibility. Clients can choose the mode of connection that fits their lifestyle and comfort level, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in app messaging. That flexibility can make it easier to keep consistent appointments and to integrate therapeutic work into a busy schedule.

Therapists providing remote care are licensed professionals, and clients may switch therapists at any time if they would prefer a different fit. For many people, the combination of professional support and adaptable access makes online therapy a useful way to address everyday struggles and important life transitions.
