History

Initially incorporated in 1988, Stocki & Neil Counseling Associates, P.C. was founded as a Florida Corporation by Dr. Stephanie Stocki and Dr. John Neil. Returning to Dr. Neilâ€™s roots in 1996, the couple moved their practice to the Williamsport area. Their general outpatient mental health practice steadily grew since its relocation, building ties within the medical community and supporting the development of Associates in Neuropsychology & Collaborative Healthcare, P.C. and Lycoming Therapeutic, Inc. More recently, the practice has become licensed to provide drug and alcohol treatment in an effort to provide more comprehensive services to the community. Dr.'s Stocki and Neil are committed to developing much-needed treatment programs that benefit the Williamsport area and surrounding communities.

Mission

Stocki & Neil Counseling Associates, P.C. recognizes our mission as one which assists at improving the quality of life of individuals and families in a compassionate and confidential environment.

Philosophy

As a fully licensed mental health and drug and alcohol agency, Stocki & Neil Counseling Associates, P.C. is in a unique position in our community to provide mental health treatment and addictions recovery. Three broad services are being offered: mental health counseling to children, adults, and families, drug and alcohol treatment for adolescents, adults, and families, and a co-occurring program for those with a combination of emotional and addictions issues. We tailor an individualized plan based on each personâ€™s specific needs and utilize a comprehensive, multi-disciplinary treatment approach to assist individuals in enhancing their quality of life. The treatment plan is developed in collaboration with the client and a professional, with specific expertise in differentiating issues.

Programs

Mental Health: A typical client referred to the mental health program is someone who does not have any drug and alcohol related problems, but who struggles with anxiety and/or depression and with life stressors such as divorce, self-esteem, and grief. When one calls to make an appointment, every attempt is made to match the individual with a professional who specializes in their specific issue. While providing an individualized treatment plan, therapists typically utilize an eclectic approach to meeting a clientâ€™s needs. Treatment is often brief and the focus is on problem solving and improved coping. We pride ourselves on providing quality service, insuring that all professionals are individually licensed by the state of Pennsylvania as a Psychologist or Licensed Clinical Social Worker and maintain their continuing education.

Drug and Alcohol: A typical client referred to the drug and alcohol program is someone whose primary area of concern is related to their substance use. The program consists of licensed professionals and/or professionals who are certified by the Pennsylvania Certification Board as Certified Addictions Counselors and/or Certified Co-Occurring Disorder Professionals. The purpose of treatment is to assist individuals and their families in their recovery process and to effectively address areas that have been impacted by addiction. The program offers individualized, comprehensive services at all stages of addictions and supports the use of 12-step programs and abstinence through recovery.

Co-Occurring: A typical client referred to the Co-Occurring program is someone who is struggling with mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, or life stressors and who is also abusing drugs and alcohol as a means to self-medicate. We have the expertise to differentiate between what is primarily mental health, substance abuse or that which is co-existing. Our professionals are those who are licensed/certified by the state of Pennsylvania to address co-occurring issues. The program provides a dual treatment focus and utilizes a treatment approach that is collaborative in nature to effectively address the co-occurring issues.
