"In my practice, I see people with a variety of concerns about their relationships, careers, and other aspects of their lives. Whether you are experiencing troubling symptoms like depression or anxiety, feeling dissatisfied or held back, or having difficulty coming to terms with loss or other stressful life events, my goal would be to help you understand yourself better, feel more content, and live your life more fully. My approach is kind, thoughtful, and collaborative. I typically start by listening to your story, to get to know you and what led you to seek treatment."

"I help individuals and couples resolve their sexual and relationship issues and enhance their lives. I've been a psychologist and sex therapist for over 30 years, my approach begins with a comprehensive evaluation to determine the cause(s) contributing to your difficulties. Then you and I create a plan that is tailored to helping you, decrease anxiety, resolve blocks, learn communication and coping skills and achieve relationship and sexual satisfaction. My approach draws from my training in sex therapy, family systems, psychodynamic and cognitive therapies as well as hypnosis and EMDR."

"Are you stressed to the breaking point at school or work? Are you suffering from anxiety or a high level of stress? Do you often experience difficulty or turmoil in your relationships? Perhaps you are not having any major problems, but wish you could feel happier, more fulfilled or be more productive. Or maybe you need to make some big life decisions and don't know where to start."

"Do you worry all the time? Is it hard for you to turn your thoughts off? Would you like to enjoy the present moment, but feel unable to do so because you are so focused on the past or future? For many people, their fears negatively affect their relationships, work and health. They don't know how to let go of their worries or they've tried things that only made their problems worse."

"Shortly after obtaining a Masters of Science in Clinical Psychology from Barry University in Florida and a Pennsylvania State Board license, I began providing clinical care to clients in residential, community, and hospital based settings throughout Pennsylvania. I have continued to provide therapy in a community based non-profit, focusing primarily on trauma. Additional specialty areas include: anxiety and stress management, emotions regulation, mood disorders, as well as family, relationship, and transition issues."

"I believe therapy is most helpful in an atmosphere of acceptance and respect. In a safe and collaborative environment, we can work together toward your personal goals. I am passionate about helping my clients cope with life stressors, to get relief from painful emotional symptoms, and to feel understood. Beginning therapy is not easy. My approach to therapy begins with helping clients to define their goals and to empower them to move toward the most fulfilling life possible."

"Hello, and warmest wishes for a successful therapist search. I know it's not always easy to tell who will be a good fit, and I hope my profile will give you some sense of what I'm like. My practice is well-suited for those experiencing: infidelity, including emotional affairs; life-altering (including terminal) diagnoses; grief for lost relationships or 'chronic singleness'; disagreement about trying (or re-trying) therapy vs. separation; and difficulty with sexual intimacy, including dysfunction or desire problems. I specialize in couple and relationship therapy, with extensive training and experience in that area, though of course I also work with individuals."

"People come to see me because they have reached a point in their lives where something needs to change. This may be a decreased experience of happiness and fulfillment, repetitive patterns of destructive behavior, a general sense of agitation and frustration, diminishing relationships with loved ones, a desire to understand yourself more clearly, or something else entirely. If you are reading this, then you have, at least, entertained the idea of making serious changes in your life. I will help you examine what is working well in your life and what is hindering your journey towards health and happiness."

"I endeavor to be THE therapist I would want for myself. I will be there for YOU. My clients tell me all the time how easy it is to connect with me. They tell me that they are comfortable opening up to me. They tell me that they trust me, my style, and the relationship that we have established. My style is to get to the situation quickly with the least amount of sessions & expense. The first couple/few sessions are generally weekly, and then you and I decide on the frequency."

"I will listen carefully to your description of what is causing you the most stress and we will arrive at a plan together for how to help you. I am well trained in multiple methods for helping people to feel better, gain insight into patterns, and act in ways that they prefer to act. I am respectful and empathetic and one of my primary goals is help you to feel hope that you will get through even the hardest experiences. I have seen how much a good therapeutic relationship can help to restore that hope."

"I excel at helping individuals through the career transition process and offer a wide range of services designed to help you navigate the path to a satisfying career. Whether you are considering career change or advancement, I can help you sort it out and take action."

"I specialize in working with children and adolescents ages 2 and up. I treat symptoms such as: separation-anxiety,enuresis/encopresis, anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress-disorder, oppositional and disruptive behavior, attention deficits, school resistance, poor academic performance, difficulty with peer relations, gender dysphoria and conflicts around sexual orientation. While I work with children individually, I also regularly involve parents. I aim to position myself as a support person for everyone in the family, particularly parents, knowing that the emotional well-being of children is entwined with the emotional well-being of the people who care for them."

"I am an active therapist. I design treatment plans and utilize strategies that are appropriate for both the issues and the personalities of my clients. I work with individuals in the context of their life and couples seeking to repair, improve or strengthen their relationship. My areas of specialty include anger issues and the breadth of sexuality concerns."

"My career as a therapist has focused on the treatment of trauma, and I have been honored to experience my clients' great recovery and healing. I work with individuals to foster their resilience by identifying patterns, connecting with the various parts of ourselves, processing difficult past experiences, and integrating compassion and authenticity into one's journey. I provide a safe and non-judgmental environment that encourages curiosity, gentle challenging, and growth."

"I can help people suffering from Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia and Binge Eating Disorder. I am also capable of assisting patients dealing with anxiety and stress which often lead to these disorders."

"I help individuals and couples work on trauma, psychological and relational issues and behaviors so that they can resolve them and enrich their lives. I have been a clinical psychologist since the mid-eighties and I view our work together as a collaborative process. I will begin by learning about and understanding you and your problem and we will figure out together what has contributed to your difficulties. The next step is to create a treatment plan tailored to you and your goal/s. Treatment consists of resolving these difficulties and re-accessing joy and interest in life."

"In order to help others, I believe that three traits are essential: competence, caring, and integrity. I continuously hone my competence by updating my skills and keeping up with developments in my field. In addition, I put a strong emphasis on personal growth and cultivating my relationships with others, believing that by living a full and meaningful life, I have more to offer my clients. I care deeply about my clients, admire their strengths, cheer their victories, and resonate with their disappointment. In terms of integrity, I commit to an approach that is kind, straight-forward,and respectful."

"If you're feeling stuck, less joyful, struggling to cope with life's demands, or experiencing changes, which affect the quality of your life, therapy may be helpful. Given a safe, respective and collaborative relationship, therapy offers the opportunity to become curious about your life, develop deeper self-understanding, mourn inevitable losses, develop strengths to achieve your goals, and ultimately live a happier life. I feel privileged to be with you on this journey, to listen deeply to your concerns, your yearnings, and help you identify the obstacles that prevent you from feeling vibrant and alive."

"I am committed to providing a safe, caring, and respectful environment in which you can feel free to express and process your feelings, no matter how painful or uncomfortable, for the purposes of reducing distress and leading a fuller life. Working collaboratively, you and I can increase your self awareness in order to improve your relationships and increase your effectiveness and sense of control."
