Therapists in Newtown, PA

I specialize in the treatment of mood disorders, anxiety, trauma, LGBTQ+ issues, relational conflict, struggles in parenting, and attachment concerns. I have worked with clients around adoption and relational loss and am passionate about working with adults and teens experiencing intense emotions. I have a diverse background, having worked with children, adolescents, adults and whole families, survivors of domestic violence and sexual abuse, and at-risk youth. I am a member of the ACA and the Association for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Issues in Counseling, and take special interest in supporting the LGBTQ+ community.

Currently, I'm only accepting male clients who have been sexually abused and/or assaulted. I work with men of all ages, including older men who have never talked about being sexually abused. While there are many female therapists who work well with male sexual abuse survivors, I believe being a straight male therapist with a wife and family helps. I also specialize in helping adult men with depression, anxiety, and other histories of trauma, such as physical and emotional abuse. I am certified in Interactional Guided Imagery, a trained EMDR therapist, facilitated over 100 psychodramas, and am effective and successful in my work.

Shame dies when stories are told in safe places. Your story matters. Experiencing trauma can make us feel alone, ashamed, & burdened with self-doubt. When you take the brave step toward therapy and healing, you no longer have to do that alone. I work to hold a safe space so that each person who comes to me is able to openly share their story while learning how to access the tools to heal all wounds that they carry. I use Internal Family Systems as an approach to work on the root of pain and to help clients heal. I am certified in DBT therapy to help individuals regulate their emotions and build skills to navigate relationships.

Are you ready to embark on a journey of self-discovery and growth? I'm here to support you navigate relationship challenges and cultivate a deeper connection with yourself and partner(s). Whether you are facing a major life transition, seeking to rebuild your emotional or sexual intimacy, struggling with sexual dysfunction, or low desire, I understand your need for support and empowerment. You may be struggling with family conflict or past family dynamics that are impacting your relationships now. Together, we can create a positive change and help you feel more confident, fulfilled, and harmonious in your relationships.

I am passionate about helping adults and couples struggling with anxiety, relational distress, self-worth, and sexual issues. It is essential to create a safe and shame-free space for my clients to explore their emotions, sexual issues, fears of intimacy, and vulnerabilities in order to make powerful changes. If you find yourself feeling lonely, disconnected from your loved ones, experiencing self-doubt and allowing fear to control your life then I can help. Through this process you will learn ways to self-regulate your emotions, practice self-love, create healthy boundaries in your relationships, and take control of your life.

Finally science and spirit integrated services... I combine the mind, the body and the soul into my therapy and offer multiple services to treat each aspect of them. I specialize in helping those who are still spiritually connected and still treat all. I am pending insurance contracts where I will treat the body with Myofascial Release and the ming with Mental Health Therapy.

We go to the gym to exercise our physical bodies, so engaging in therapy helps us strengthen our mental health. I am part of a new practice called Insight Psychological Services where we provide an array of services including psychiatric evaluations, medication management, individual, family, couples, and group therapy.

My passion is sex and relationship therapy, and helping clients explore and gain confidence in their sexual identities and romantic relationships. When it comes to sex, there is no “normal,” despite what our society tries to make us believe. I want to help you release any guilt, shame, or “hangups” you may have around sex, and provide a comfortable space for you to question and wonder what a pleasurable and satisfying sex life looks like for you. I also have experience providing therapy to college students and young adults, with issues ranging from stress and anxiety, to various traumas and mood disorders.

For some people, therapy is a scary word. There’s been a lot of stigma around it for a long time. But for others it is relief. It takes courage to begin therapy, whether it’s your first time or you’re returning after several years. Life transitions and events can sometimes lead to overwhelming feelings of stress and you need someone to help you navigate through these difficult times. I want my clients to find relief from what they are experiencing and give them an outlet to express themselves. Therapy is self-care, and I want clients to view it as such instead of something they “have to do”.

A great deal of my professional practice has been working with individuals, groups, couples and families, substance abuse, and LGBTQIA+ populations. I understand that no single approach is the right one for everyone & it is important to meet each person where they are. I believe it is important to tailor the therapy approach to each individual. As such, I use various approaches, including Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Humanistic Therapy, EMDR, Person-Centered, & Gottman Method for couples therapy. Let me help you get unstuck & develop skills to improve in the ways you would like. I am currently offering IOP and PHP groups.

I’m Lindsay Repko and I’m a psychotherapist committed to offering you a protected place to effectively explore the depths of who you truly are and what you want for your life, whether your experience of suffering is old or new. This sounds simple, but our modern society can make such a space hard to find, and cultural norms or taboos can pressure us to hide parts of ourselves in shame. When this happens, people often push relationships away that they need and experience pain and isolation.

Humans are products of their environments. In fact, you can tell a lot about a person as they unravel the dimensions of their early family life. Our thoughts mediate everything and carry into our daily experience. I aim to help you identify, explore, and challenge yourself to aid in the journey of becoming the best version of you. Successful clients gain a sense of empowerment, take control of their life, and discern failure as opportunity for success. I have experience with children, adolescents, & adults suffering from OCD, ADHD, BPD, anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, ODD, codependency, and interpersonal conflicts.
