I work with a range of people from those searching for self growth to those struggling with mild to serious mental health issues. I use a variety of approaches including insight oriented, cognitive behavioral, play therapy, sand tray work with children and adult, and trauma work. I believe strongly in the importance of establishing and maintaining the strong therapeutic alliance for the best outcome and for the most genuine, authentic work. If you are interested, please contact me for more information about my therapeutic, emotional healing practice. I offer free informational interviews.

Each struggle in life brings an opportunity to uncover conflicts and create healing with a deeper exploration in therapy. I meet people where they are in life and begin treatment there. I have hope that healing can occur in everyone if they have motivation. I use a creative arts, integrative, evidence based model to explore patterns, beliefs, and get to the core so we can rebuild where the healing is needed. With children, I use play therapy and creative arts. I use insight, goals, and strengths to create treatments plans. We re-assess every few months to track progress.

With a compassionate and sensitive approach to the individuals journey in life, we make it a priority to fully understand the nature of our clients concerns and experiences. Our hope is that our clients feel completely heard and develop a sense of trust in the therapy process.

I have 35 years of experience working with individuals, couples, families, and groups. In my practice I work to help clients discover strengths and resources to address the emotional, physical, social, and spiritual complications of life. I have clinical expertise in the areas of depression, anxiety, abuse and trauma recovery, grief and loss. I also work with couples and families who are experiencing difficult transistions, by encouraging growth in these personal relationships,as well as in both social and spiritual relationships. I hold a deep belief in the unique, individual strengths available within each person.

Feeling stuck and out of balance with no way out can feel paralyzing emotionally and lead to all kinds of thoughts and reactions that can leave you feeling overwhelmed, panicked, defensive, alone and anxious. This is what we at AHA! refer to as the "Discomfort Zone" and sometimes it takes reaching this place to realize, there IS a way beyond this! And if you are here, I imagine you are ready for some new skills and a fresh perspective that takes you or a child you love beyond the fight or flight mode of just surviving life.

Life starts to beat us down and burn us out. We find ourselves frustrated, irritated, and confused how to move forward. Friends and family that we relied on have run out of energy for us. We can't help it, but we're pushing them away. How can we overcome this struggle without losing those closest to us, without losing ourselves? The stress of life: work, school, family and this world at large can sometimes feel overwhelimg, leading to anxiety, mood and relationship problems or drinking and smoking too much.

CURRENTLY NOT ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS. I enjoy working with adult clients, age 21 & older, with a wide variety of concerns including, but not limited to stress management / life balance, parenting challenges, depression / mood disorders, anxiety / panic, trauma-related symptoms / PTSD, mind / body concerns (chronic pain, illness, emotional overeating), women's issues (infertility, pregnancy, post-partum depression, menopause), grief and loss, and issues of aging (adjusting to retirement, coping with the aging process).

As a licensed clinician, my goal is to create a supportive and safe space for individuals and their families to process their experiences. I hope to support others with exploring their individual symptoms of depression, anxiety, trauma etc. that have affected their lives and the impact on their families. In therapy, my goal is to instill hope for positive growth and change. I implement a variety of therapeutic models to support development of healthy coping skills, self-confidence, non-judgmental acceptance, developing healthy support systems, and motivation for growth and healing.

WELCOME TO LIVING A LIFE OF BALANCE All of us face struggles in our lives. We experience problems and difficulties sometimes on a daily basis and other times only occasionally. When we feel stuck we have a tendency to repeat negative or self-defeating patterns/behaviors. This repetition often causes us to become overly critical of ourselves. Our work together is designed to help you to understand the why and how so that you can make the changes you want in your life. Change is never easy; however it is so worth it!! You will be pleasantly surprised by how happy you will become.

Hello! I'm Erin, a licensed clinical social worker located in Bucks County, PA. I'm passionate about helping those who struggle to trust their thoughts and bodies. Have you spent life trying to prove yourself to others, never quite feeling adequate? What impact do appearance and success have on your mood and self-talk? Are you a perfectionist? Worthiness is intrinsic and does not need to be earned. Therapy can help us to accept (maybe even embrace) our imperfections and vulnerabilities, uncovering authentic pieces of ourself.

"If you don't transform your grief, you will transmit it." -Tim Shriver. If you have experienced, or are experiencing, a loss and/or life transition, allow me to help you transform your grief so that you will not transmit it. I feel it is a privilege to walk beside those who are on a grief journey. I offer a safe, kind, compassionate, non-judgmental listening ear, and bereavement support. Life may never be as it once was, but you can experience happiness again. Grief is never resolved, but it can be reconciled.

I have been helping others navigate their lives for nearly 35 years. Therapy can help you see from a new vantage point. Expect to resolve and heal distress linked to experiences of your past. Begin to recognize habits that no longer serve you. Practice being clear; responsible with your feelings and ask for what you need. Begin to build and reinforce healthy boundaries with others. Stop giving away your power. Practice thoughtful irritation; ending cycles of distressing anger that lead to shame and self criticism. Be kinder to yourself and practice making better choices. Only you can change your internal response to what is.

I am a Mental Health Therapist and Advanced Clinical Hypnotherapist. I work with individuals, couples & families. I work with people who are experiencing issues in relationships, stress - anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, trauma, and Adult Children of Alcoholics and dysfunctional family systems issues. I work with people that have deep core issues that are not shifted by traditional treatment and decide to use hypnotherapy to break through deeply held stored trauma, old beliefs and old behaviors that no longer serve them. My clients goals are to lift the veil of feeling not-good-enough and embrace who they really are.

Hello! My name is Danielle and I am a New Jersey and Pennsylvania Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have over 10+ years of experience working with children, teens and families. Many clients I have worked with have struggled with managing their anxiety and depression. Parents often feel helpless as to what to do. I have also worked with many families who are struggling with managing out-of-control behaviors from their children. My goal in therapy is to start where you and/or your family are and to give you the tools to reach your personal goals.

Are you working through the challenges of motherhood? Are you a soon to be or a new parent? Are you struggling with compassion fatigue? Do you struggle with overwhelm? Are you craving the elusive work life balance? I am here to work side by side with you through these struggles and to overcome overwhelm and live life feeling bold and brave!

As a couple who no longer can communicate or connect, you often find yourself wondering how did this relationship get to this point. You are hurt, lonely, and more importantly scared of what is next. Every conversation ends up in a fight and more disconnect and confusion follows, bringing a sense of hopelessness and frustration. You both may still love each other and feel really bad for where you are, but nothing seems to work anymore. You never imagined your relationship to look like this, both of you are smart, hard-working, kind and caring individuals - where did this go wrong?

My passion is supporting adolescents and young adults as they navigate through the changes in life. Our work together will aim to deepen your understanding of who you are now and who you want to be. When transitions happen you may experience anxiety, depression, stress, mood changes, trauma, self esteem issues, school avoidance, or body image issues. It is important to have a support system in place as we manage these changes. During our work together I will support you as you determine what path you would like to take in life. When I work with families it is to support them to stay connected during these times.

Life is full of challenges that can test our resilience and sometimes leave us feeling overwhelmed, discouraged and alone. Whether it is dealing with personal setbacks, facing unexpected obstacles or crises, or coping with the stress of daily life, it is easy to feel like giving up. Despite the trials that life brings, I am here to provide support to those who may feel alone and be a listening ear to those who desperately need to feel heard.
