Important Note for Current Clients:
As part of this transition, some of our clinicians will be staying at our current location to open their own independent private practices.
If you are a current client, please consult directly with your therapist to confirm whether your ongoing sessions will take place at our new Cleveland Ave suite or if your therapist is remaining at the current location.
Our Sanctuary phone number and email will remain unchanged. Don't hesitate to get in touch with info@sanctuarychristiancounseling.com for any questions. We look forward to continuing to support you!
Joel A. Covert LPC
Licensed Professional Counselor,
Specializing in teens, young adults, and adults

Joel Covert earned his M.Ed. in Secondary School Counseling from Shippensburg University, and is a Licensed Professional Counselor and a National Certified Counselor.
​
He has nearly 15 years of experience working with young adolescents, teenagers, college-aged students and young adults around a variety of concerns including relationship issues, grief and loss, anxiety and depression, ADHD, and family conflicts, as well as organization and time management. Joel uses a variety of approaches including, but not limited to, strengths-based and cognitive-behavioral strategies. Within therapy, he believes that the client and counselor relationship is paramount to understanding emotions, feelings, beliefs and behaviors that either inhibit or bring about fullness of living.
​
Joel has experience in adventure-based counseling and at times encourages clients to take their learning outdoors to discover awareness to see themselves, their beliefs and behaviors in new ways. His hope is that clients will be empowered to find their true identity and live whole and free lives in their relationships, pursuits and places of work.
​
Joel practices in-person therapy exclusively.
