Therapists in Ridley, PA

What's important to me is working with others to find meaning in life, to help bring about a greater happiness that's shared. I believe it's possible to do this is we are able to understand ourselves better - we can then understand others and our connections become deeper and more alive.

I earned a master's degree in Mental Health Counseling & Behavioral Medicine from Boston University School of Medicine, complementing my double major in Psychology and Sociology from the State University of New York at Buffalo. I offer counseling services and mental health support to individuals of all ages and backgrounds, specializing in Sports Psychology as a designated provider for the Philadelphia Eagles. Utilizing the Eco-Systemic Family Therapy Model, an evidence-based treatment, my clinical work focuses on helping families, couples, and individuals achieve treatment goals.

I am experienced in depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, relational conflict, family systems, addiction, criminal justice, anger management, eating disorders/body image, and mood disorders. The ideal client actively wants to explore their behaviors and thinking patterns and identify the underlying causes of these behaviors. In addition, the ideal client will be willing to tackle goals inside & outside therapy sessions. My ideal client would be an individual who is internally and externally motivated to change their life. They show up to sessions on time consistently and make a conscious effort to engage in the therapeutic process.

Nick Herrick is a clinician operating out of Media, PA who has enjoyed helping clients find and walk their path toward healing since graduating from Thomas Jefferson University's Couple and Family Therapy program in 2011.

Thank you for considering me as your therapist! I am very interactive, utilize humor, my own experience, and a lot of mindfulness in my approach.

Hi, My name is Dr. Andre Watson and I am a clinical psychologist in Aldan, Pennsylvania: just west of West Philadelphia. I have experience working with people from all kinds of situations, from overwhelmed parents, to anxious teens, to those depressed and lonely, to those coping with childhood trauma and abuse, to perpetrator's and victims of violence , to those couples getting ready for a loving life together, to those just working on more having more fulfilling lives. It is important to me that we spend time talking about how therapy can help and how you can get the most benefit from therapy.

I offer support and insight for dealing with life's struggles and assisting in turning challenges into growth opportunities. With over 25 years of experience. I have expertise in treating individuals who struggle with addictions, eating disorders, relationship issues, and traumatic experiences. Whether you work individually, as a family, or in one of my ongoing groups, you have the support and encouragement you deserve. Therapy is about finding the support to help you bridge where you are now and the ability to take the steps you need to become the person you want to become.

Change can be really, really hard. We can get so stuck in routines and behaviors that prove to be ineffective for us, yet it can be hard to recognize on our own. Therapy is useful in that it allows us to look inward while considering what change is necessary to have a more purposeful, satisfying life.

I believe that therapy can be beneficial for anyone who feels that they are not living up to their full potential. I treat adults of all ages and have a background working in college counseling, LGBTQ issues and treating addictions. I work with a variety of obstacles to mental health, including mental illness, stress, feeling down or anxious, and relationship problems. I help clients to define problems, cope and respond in healthier ways, and achieve a deeper understanding and appreciation for themselves. I provide therapy to individuals and couples as well as drug and alcohol evaluations.

I work with individuals and couples to create positive changes in their lives. This includes those struggling in areas such as self-esteem, intimacy, addressing emotional needs, healing from past hurts/trauma, a history of neglect or abuse, or challenges regarding gender and sexuality. I work with couples, straight/lesbian/gay, who are working on their relationship, whether as a result of an affair, or realizing differences that keep them from being close. My research focuses on men and the effects of expectations on men’s lives. Pursuing therapy represents a longing to heal. My work is about supporting that process.

Do you feel unhappy, unfulfilled, or that you've lost yourself due to anxiety, depression or trauma? Do you find yourself ruminating, catastrophizing, or letting critical thoughts get the best of you? Are you always taking care of others but not yourself? Do you feel hopeless or beaten down? Are you having difficulties letting go of a loss? Do you want help feeling more in control, living up to your potential, or achieving your goals? Let me help you identify the root causes of your distress and help you to understand how it interferes with your life and relationships.

My entire career, I have worked mainly with teens, young adults and families. I believe strongly in the power of the relationship and work hard to help families connect in an honest and genuine way with their kids. I have a fundamental belief that most people do their best, have good intentions and want to be loved and appreciated. With this in mind, I believe strongly in the work I do and services I offer. I provide individual, family and group therapy and focus on helping people better listen, trust and connect with one another despite the diagnosis or symptoms.

Are you a young adult dealing primarily with anxiety and life transition issues? This could be a recent college graduate starting their first big job, a major transition. I like walking beside them through these transitions and being an additional support. I also like helping people learn breathing techniques to manage anxiety and learn about polyvagal theory and a bottom-up approach. I enjoy working with clients who can articulate their goals, such as managing anxiety better and working on anxiety in different settings.

Sometimes on our journey we need an objective guide. I can help you enhance your ability to manage problems involving "big feelings” that otherwise overwhelm. If your goal is to start getting new results for old recurring problems we can do that with compassion and curiosity. It is important to explore our personal history to understand why we think or behave the ways we currently do. While personal growth isn't always painless, you don't have to be alone in the process if you have a therapist who will commit to the process along side of you. I can help you gain new perspectives that will get you to solve problems effectively.

Whether it’s anxiety, depression, lack of fulfillment, or even just a general feeling of being stuck, therapy is the vehicle that will help you rise above it all and take back control of your life. Working together, you and I will take active steps to build your resilience and find a new sense of purpose in your life. I’m ready when you are.

I understand that talking to someone you don't know about personal issues is difficult, so I do my best to create a safe and relaxed environment. I primarily work with individuals coping with anxiety issues, depression, borderline personality disorder, bipolar d/o, those on the autism spectrum, self-worth and relationship issues. I have a personal interest in working with veterans, college students and individuals struggling with LGBT+ issues. I'm a pretty authentic, honest person, and I like to find and highlight your strengths, especially when you struggle with that.

Life is a journey and on our journey we will experience love, joy, and happiness. We will also encounter pain, loss, suffering and hardship. As a licensed clinical social worker I offer a safe space where you can safely talk about your experiences and feelings. I want to help you trust your own intuition as you talk about your life and make decisions about the direction of it. I am accepting, caring, and supportive. I believe in cultural humility which allows the individual to teach me about their self identity to include their ethnicity, spirituality, sexual identity, and other aspects of their cultural.
