Therapists in Hockessin, DE

Thank you for taking the first steps in working towards emotional healing. I have experiencing collaborating with individuals, couples, and families from diverse backgrounds with a wide range of needs. My approach is Client-Centered and I include aspects of Cognitive Behavioral as well as Solution-Focused therapies into my work. When working with children, I incorporate play therapy, include sandplay, into my sessions in order to engage clients and create a comfortable environment for therapy.

I am the owner of a group practice; the Center for Grief and Trauma Therapy. We recognize that all of us experience times in our lives when a little help is needed. Perhaps now, it is a period of time in your life that is emotionally difficult, a death or loss you are grieving, struggles with depression or anxiety, problematic relationships, or just want to work on personal growth. Perhaps you need a sympathetic, nonjudgmental ear with someone whom you can trust. We hope you can find that person with us. We serve all ages, couples, families, and groups with a wide variety of emotional, interpersonal, and spiritual struggles.

In my practice, I look to build a strong and trusting rapport with clients. We are then able to work together on identifying potential sources of life stressors as well as strengths. In exploring these areas, clients are able to identify and modify previous patterns of behavior in order to achieve their full potential personally, academically, and/or vocationally.

Navigating life's challenges can feel like an uphill battle, and I want you to know that you don't have to face it alone. Life can be difficult, and I'm here to offer you the support and guidance you need to overcome those challenges and find your path to success.

By exploring your options for compassionate mental health care, you are one step closer on your path towards healing. That takes courage, and can help you on your journey! We specialize in working with those who are struggling with all kinds of losses, but ALSO those with other mental health and relationship difficulties. We experience a sense of loss when someone or something, very dear to us, has been taken from our lives. In spite of what you may have learned, there is no one right way to feel, or to grieve! We experience different types of losses throughout our lives - and we know that every person's grief is unique

As Therapist and Life Coach, I am integrally connected to the burgeoning Science of Positive Psychology, which is the scientific study of what enables people and communities to thrive. My approach emphasizes the uniqueness and potential of each individual. I dwell in the possibility for positive change. I am committed to the use of tools which make it possible for you to recognize, appreciate and utilize your signature character strengths (you at your best) to assist you with any perceived problems, limitations and areas of healing, thereby opening the door for you to set your intention toward the realm of your possibility.

An ideal client, is an unideal person. If humans were perfect they wouldn't need therapy. I work with individuals, couples & families with a range of issues. I help people address unskilled thoughts, emotions &/or behaviors, helping them let go of things that are no longer serving them. If an individual desires to grow by developing their sense of awareness, while developing skills to help them lower their stress levels & address their issues, I can help. I work with all mental health conditions, or stress related issues. No issue is too small or too big for therapy. I am here to support others in their goals & personal growth.
