Therapists in Philadelphia, PA

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 intimacy, conflict, anger issues and the breadth of sexuality concerns.

Do you have trust issues in your relationship? Are you afraid to be honest with your partner or tired of trying to be someone you're not? Neither you or your partner are really talking about your hurt or resentments over pornography and infidelity. You've tried over and over again and the current situation isn't working for you and/or your relationship. Contact me and we will talk about how you feel about your challenges and together come up with a behavioral and emotional strategy for you to move forward! By the end of our FIRST session, you will be given therapeutic goals that you and I will work on.

I view psychotherapy as a collaborative experience between therapist and patient. I see my role as that of a space holder and guide. I will shed light on and explore what may be causing difficulty in your life, provide affirmation, and offer tools that will help sustain your therapeutic goals. I believe that transformation and change can evolve through collaboration and the development of a renewed narrative that is validating and hopeful.

I am widely published, formerly on staff at the Belmont Center and at Hahnemann and Temple Universities.The goal is to diminish negative symptoms and patterns, facilitate individuation, find your path and personal meaning in life, at work and in relationships.

I value the relationships I form with clients and my goal is to make everyone I work with feel safe, respected and accepted for who they are.

My ideal client is anyone who is ready to make the necessary change in their life. The client does not need to know exactly what the issue is; simply knowing that something is wrong is enough. Due to my expertise, I am confident and competent working with life transitions, anxiety, sexual dysfunction, communication, and much, much more. Regardless of the issue, what matters most is the client's desire for change.

I work from a social work strengths based perspective and believe in meeting each client where they are and collaborating to address the issue(s) at hand.

Being human isn't easy. If you are seeking therapy you are likely struggling, hurting, and finding life challenging in some way.

I'm here for you. I am an open, non-judgmental, accepting, compassionate, warm, and empathetic therapist. Together in a safe, trusting, and supportive environment we can explore and uncover how you ended up at this point in your life, and find a way through.

I feel both honored and privileged to partner with individuals and couples to build their understanding of their challenges, leverage their strengths, and create personalized strategies to make meaningful changes in their lives. As a therapist with ADHD, I recognize that one of the most painful experiences that come with ADHD is feeling “in your own way” and the sense of thwarted potential that comes along with it. I also know that ADHD doesn’t just impact attention, organization, and motivation; it can affect your entire life, from your performance at work to your home life and inner world.

I believe that an authentic, caring, and strong connection between therapist and client is essential to facilitate meaningful change and it is an honor to be invited to participate in another person’s transformational journey.

You're a successful person, yet you feel as if something is missing. It seems like you're caught in a cycle of conflict and negativity, both within yourself and with others.

Let's embark on this journey together, igniting your potential, unveiling new possibilities, and sculpting the life you envision. Or, maybe you're here for your child or teen. You sense their struggle, understanding their pain even when words fail them. You both feel stuck.
