Therapists in Paoli, PA

In my experience, inside every person there is a psychological center, like a ‘Light’ leading us to love, healing, joy and growth. In a deep place in each of us, it is always present, though sometimes hidden. Known by many different names and through many different senses - center, core, soul, real-self, heart or unconscious, it is wise and kind and delights to do no harm, and intends only good. We all have a longing to connect to this profound potential, goodness and love within ourselves, within others and in all. I enjoy supporting folks in their journey back to this connection.

Have you lost heart? Are you feeling anxious, angry, guilty, embarrassed, or invisible? Are you haunted by a loss or trauma you thought you'd gotten past? Are you discouraged by your own or others' ideas about who, how, and where you ought to be at this time in your life? Are you hiding habits, shying away from help for fear of judgment? Do you feel uneasy in social situations? Do the news headlines leave you hopeless? Do you feel stuck and crave more meaning in work and relationships? Are you smiling for all and screaming inside? How you truly feel matters very much. Suffering is wisdom waiting; being with it changes everything.

My work as a clinician is grounded in establishing a safe, supportive, and nurturing co-created environment. We all struggle at times and sometimes having help is necessary to find calm, balance, or growth. Each client brings their own unique strengths and challenges. Together we develop a plan to help you move toward your goals. My counseling is informed by my work with students with special needs, families in transition, my training in yoga and mindfulness, and my work with men and women who experienced domestic violence. I use a trauma informed, person-centered approach in which clients feel safe, heard, and valued.

One of the main components of therapy is to provide a safe environment for clients to explore their thoughts and feelings. My office offers teletherapy play sessions with children and is also easily transformed into a space comfortable for adolescents, adults, and couples. For more than 15 years, I have worked with children, adolescents, and adults with behavioral and emotional challenges. My professional experience consists of working in a variety of settings including: in-home therapy, outpatient, and group practice. My clinical areas of specialty include: anxiety, depression, mood disorders, ADHD, OCD, autism and trauma.

Many of us wrestle to find hope in our lives, move forward, or just make it through the day. Depression, anxiety, relationship concerns, and loss can take away motivation, causing struggle and suffering. This can change. Perhaps you're determining which life path to take or are dealing with past trauma, abuse, or painful memories. You don't have to carry this weight alone. I provide an unbiased, nonjudgmental space for adults to explore what is hindering them and overcome obstacles in healthy, ways.

Feeling like you don't fit in anywhere? Are you in a transition? Would you like to have a skill set to deal with difficult situations? Have you thought about ways to control your addiction but can't seem to do it on your own ? Are you turned off by certain aspects of recovery programs? Would you like to develop a plan that will work specifically for you that's completely confidential? Are you an adoptee who is unsure of how to approach Adoptive family about searching for your roots ? Are you afraid of a second abandonment ? Is fear of abandonment repeated in all your relationships ? Have people called oyu co-dependent ?

We tend to think of change and acceptance as opposing truths, as if accepting our situation means doing nothing about it. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a therapeutic approach that seeks to transcend this all-or-nothing way of thinking. It teaches us to radically accept our situation as it is, while still working to improve the things within our control. Instead of seeing change and acceptance as opposing truths, DBT allows us to see them as truths that reinforce each other. In other words: embracing acceptance can lead to change, and embracing change can lead to acceptance.

Psychology for YOU. If you are experiencing a problem or something troubles you in your mind, this is the moment to address it. The opportunity for you to express yourself and receive professional attention is in your hands now. If we work together we can reach your goals. “Don't be pushed around by the fears in your mind. Be led by the dreams in your heart.” ― Roy T. Bennett

I'm a licensed psychotherapist in PA and NJ, and the founder of Be Here Now Psychotherapy. I'm experienced in helping adult children with narcissistic parents, and those recovering from abusive romantic relationships. I specialize in treating Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), using psychodynamic therapy, IFS and TIST. My overarching area of expertise is trauma, complex trauma and PTSD.

I believe healing is a holistic endeavor, and depth psychology can be integrated with somatic work to unite body and mind to help us get to know ourselves on on many levels.

Holistic Counseling Services is committed to providing quality care using a tele-mental health platform. My goal is to provide good quality care in the privacy of your home or office without the hassle of taking extra time out of your busy schedule to travel to a brick and mortar office.

I believe that psychotherapy is best done as a collaborative process. I have the training and experience and you, the client, bring all you know about yourself and your life. Together, we develop goals, both long and short term, that hopefully will lead to active awareness, emotional relief and behavioral changes.

Accepting new clients! I help people overcome difficulty and use it to grow and pursue a life of meaning and purpose. Sometimes we start by treating stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, career, or LGBTQ+ and other identity issues, and over time turn to deeper issues about the life you want to create, your identity, and your values. I’m a humanistic counselor, which means I’ll never tell you what to do and I’ll always empower you to make the choice that’s best for you. I use a collaborative, gentle approach that helps you connect with your intuitive sense of self and your intrinsic motivation to grow and do difficult things.
