RECOVERY-ORIENTED COUNSELING IN Oil City and Franklin, PA

Shannon Neal, BS, CPRP, Executive Director. I have worked at the Regional Counseling Center since 1998. I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Social Work and I am a Certified Psychiatric Rehabilitation Practitioner. My first job at RCC was in the adult Partial Program doing group, individual and family therapy. I did this for 9 years before changing positions and working in the Mobile Psychiatric Rehabilitation Program, where I am the Program Director. This is a community-based program that assists individuals with learning new skills and building supports so they can be successful in the environments of their choice, living, learning, working, and socialization. I helped develop the Hoarding Recovery and Maintenance Program (HRMP) where I worked as a Hoarding Specialist. In February 2019 I became the Assistant Director of the agency and most recently, January 1, 2023 became the Executive Director. I believe the Regional Counseling Center has been an asset to Venango County and neighboring communities. I have enjoyed my many years here and plan on enjoying many more.
