Faqs.

Therapy is a meaningful investment—in yourself, your relationships, and your future. Below are answers to the most common questions clients ask before beginning individual therapy, couples therapy, or Discernment Counseling with William Devorick, MS, LPC.

How does therapy work with William Devorick?

Therapy sessions take place either in-person in Lititz, PA or through secure telehealth for clients anywhere in Pennsylvania. You and William Devorick will meet once per week or at a frequency that fits your goals.

Sessions are focused, collaborative, and grounded in compassion and curiosity. Whether you’re working individually or as a couple, you’ll get:

  • A structured approach tailored to your goals
  • Space to express concerns without judgment
  • Support in understanding patterns that keep you stuck
  • Tools you can use immediately in real life
  • Clear direction without pressure or pushiness

William Devorick’s work blends therapeutic insight with practical strategies you can apply between sessions to create real, sustainable change.

How is Discernment Counseling different from traditional couples therapy?

Discernment Counseling is a short-term, specialized service for couples who are unsure whether they want to stay together, separate, or pursue couples therapy.

This approach:

  • Clarifies whether the relationship can be repaired

  • Helps each partner understand their role in the dynamic

  • Supports informed decision-making—without pressure to stay or leave

  • Protects the couple from jumping prematurely into therapy, separation, or divorce

Unlike traditional couples therapy, Discernment Counseling is not designed to fix the relationship, but to help you decide what direction to take. You can learn more in William Devorick’s directory listing on the official Discernment Counseling site.

What issues do you help individuals with?

William Devorick works with adults navigating challenges such as:

  • Anxiety, stress, and overwhelm
  • Depression or low motivation
  • ADHD-related struggles
  • Major life transitions
  • Relationship patterns that keep repeating
  • Questions of identity, meaning, or purpose

Individual therapy focuses on understanding yourself more deeply and removing barriers to feeling grounded, confident, and capable.

What kinds of couples benefit from therapy with William Devorick?

Couples therapy can help if you’re experiencing:

  • Repetitive arguments

  • Emotional distance or loss of connection

  • Mismatched communication styles

  • Challenges with parenting, finances, or intimacy

  • Trust issues or past ruptures

  • Difficulty expressing needs without conflict

Couples therapy is not about assigning blame—it’s about strengthening the relationship, improving communication, and rebuilding safety and connection.

How does the couples therapy program work?

Couples therapy is structured as weekly in-person or telehealth sessions where you work through core areas essential to a healthier relationship:

  • Expressing needs clearly and respectfully

  • Managing emotional reactions without shutdown or escalation

  • Understanding recurring patterns and breaking negative cycles

  • Rebuilding trust and connection

  • Developing tools for communication under stress

You’ll receive real-time coaching, guided exercises, and practical tools you can apply immediately—so you’re not just talking about change, but actively creating it.

Is this therapy a good fit for everyone?

Therapy with William Devorick is a strong fit for:

  • Individuals ready to understand themselves and grow
  • Couples committed to improving their relationship
  • Partners in “mixed-agenda” situations (one leaning out, one leaning in)
  • People navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, or major transitions

It may not be the right fit if:

  • You’re looking for a quick fix
  • You want someone to “take sides”
  • One or both partners are unwilling to participate or reflect
There is active domestic abuse, untreated addiction, or coercive control (In these cases, William Devorick will offer referrals to more appropriate services.)

Do you offer telehealth?

Yes. William Devorick provides secure, HIPAA-compliant telehealth for anyone located in Pennsylvania. Many clients choose telehealth because it offers:

  • Convenience and privacy
  • No commute to appointments
  • Easier scheduling for busy professionals and parents
  • A comfortable environment that often makes difficult conversations easier

Telehealth sessions follow the same structure and clinical quality as in-person sessions.

What if I’m still not sure therapy is right for me?

Feeling uncertain is completely normal. You’re welcome to schedule a consultation—a no-pressure opportunity to:

  • Share what’s been happening
  • Ask questions
  • Explore whether therapy (or Discernment Counseling) is the right next step
  • Get a sense of William Devorick’s style and approach
