Therapists in Malvern, PA

As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I consider it to be an honor and a privilege to be a part of each individual’s healing and journey through therapy. I believe in the importance of creating a strong therapeutic relationship between myself and my clients. I strive to create such a relationship by treating each client with unconditional positive regard and empathy. Seeking and asking for help can be difficult especially if you have ever felt invalidated or unheard. I aim to support my clients in expressing their needs and becoming their authentic self and creating a meaningful, purposeful life.

Being a parent is a wonderful experience, but comes with many challenges at all stages. Bonding with a newborn, experiencing shame or guilt, fearing failure, or even balancing family life with work are all examples of the issues that my clients struggle with. Sometimes we cope in unhealthy ways, unfortunately. Your ability to be your best self is tested and it may affect your mental health. Of course, it is normal to have self-doubt at times. It is more than okay to ask for help. Going to therapy is actually a sign of strength and it can improve relationships. Please reach out and do not suffer in silence.

It takes a lot of Courage to seek help. For most, the journey begins when the struggle becomes overwhelming or unbearable. The Willingness to accept support & guidance usually does not come easy. I applaud anyone who does so. Basic human needs include survival, a sense of belonging, power, freedom and fun. When these elements are not in place or are out of balance, we can present as anxious, depressed, stressed out and angry. I work well with people who are wanting to gain clarity around imbalances, and who want to take action on making changes that align with, and help to maintain, personal integrity.

Fulfilling our potential is a lifelong journey of becoming more at peace with ourselves, deepening the intimacy in our relationships, being more authentically human, and feeling more alive each day. Along the way, certain challenges arise to cause us distress or confusion. Such moments can make us feel held back, afraid, or unsure of where to go from here. But these moments can also be the points of growth and healing from which we renew ourselves in ways we did not think possible.

Therapy is a step-by-step process, and I am here to support and guide you. I work well with clients who are open to feedback and willing to work on their personal goals. I have experience working with clients in mental health and substance use outpatient settings, providing group, individual, and family therapy. I have worked with clients with mood disorders, anxiety, personality disorders, PTSD, trauma, recovery from substance use, as well as co-occurring disorders. I work with clients as a team in the therapeutic relationship to help clients achieve their goals in treatment.

This probably isn’t your first time considering therapy, but you’re hoping something changes this time. Let’s make that change together.

Everyone possesses innate abilities and strengths that shape personal growth. Taking the first step to heal is courageous - striving for balance through self-discovery is the ultimate act of self-compassion. The heart of my practice is centered on how our experiences shape our brain, body and stress responses – how these emotional templates impact how we learn to cope with difficult emotions and their effect on our capacity to connect and realize our potential. I am passionate about helping adults, couples and adolescents develop skills that empower them to overcome obstacles, navigate life transitions and live a fulfilling life.
