Move Forward Counseling LLC was started in September 2015 in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, by Alison Pidgeon, MA, LPC. Her vision was to provide excellent mental health care for the community and a great place to work for its staff. Over the years, Move Forward Counseling has grown from a team of 2 to almost 30 employees.
We believe therapy should be a place where all people can feel safe, comfortable, and supported as they change their lives. Change is never easy, but with the support of our caring and experienced therapists, you can start to make changes that you feel happy about. Therapy is an individualized experience, and we will work with you to figure out what is important to you and help you determine the best ways to meet your goals.
In the early days of the practice, Alison, our founder, answered the phone to schedule new clients. She noticed that clients often mentioned they “felt stuck” and had tried everything they knew to solve their problem, but it still wasn’t working, so they called for counseling services.
Around the same time, Alison came across this quote on a piece of artwork, “Life is like riding a bicycle. In order to keep your balance, you must keep moving forward.” It was then she realized the clients who were calling because they felt “stuck” were looking for a way to “move forward” in life. And so Move Forward Counseling became the permanent name of the practice.
Our mission is to empower people to improve their lives through excellent mental health outpatient therapy in Pennsylvania.
