Therapists in Berwyn, PA

I enjoy working with adults, children and adolescents, as well as couples and families. I work with couples seeking to work through a breach of trust in a relationship, or a loss of connection, or who desire to improve intimacy. I also serve adolescents trying to transition to adulthood and navigate high school, college or post college stress. I work with adults and children trying to navigate anxiety that is intrusive. I try to help those with depression over loss or past trauma that hold them back from making meaningful changes and strides in their live. I want to help make difficult family and peer relationships more functional.

My aim as your therapist is to create a space where healing, empowerment, strength, and growth can be experienced. To achieve this, I draw upon interventions of mindfulness, cognitive behavioral therapy, and motivational interviewing to help you meet your goals in therapy. I believe therapy is not one thing for any one person, but that ultimately it can be a place where meaning and wholeness can be found. As your therapist I will always strive to meet you where you are at and to meet your needs in a way that is collaborative and effective.

Are you considering starting therapy? I'm interested in learning about what is bringing you here. Starting this process can feel very overwhelming. I believe people start to heal the moment they feel heard. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I offer a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment that focuses on developing an authentic and therapeutic relationship with my clients. Together we can understand what has been happening in your life, explore your values, gain insight, and increase self-awareness to help you live more effectively and understand yourself in new ways.

In practice for over 15 years, I work with a wide range of people who may be experiencing anxiety, low mood, and stress. In particular, many people come into my office because they have found an aspect of their life is not rewarding, whether this be handling life's pressures, relationships with a spouse/children, or how one thinks about one's self. It is always my objective to work with people collaboratively in order to develop goals that guide the psychotherapy.

You find yourself worrying, lying awake, and unsure how to turn off your brain. Maybe you don’t feel heard in your marriage or relationship, don't feel appreciated, or that you’re always having "the same argument". Or you've recently lost a loved one and are not sure what to do next, how to grieve, or just need someone to listen. Maybe you need help meeting deadlines, being on time, or organizing yourself so you can remember important dates. Overall, you’re ready for a change. You are ready to live the life you've dreamed of. I want to help you get there. Visit my website to book a consultation appointment directly with me.

Therapist profiles can be overwhelming. You may feel like you have to know exactly what you need in order to find a therapist that addresses it. I want you to know that helping you learn what you need is part of therapy. Maybe all you know for sure is that you are emotionally suffering and would like help. My background is working with adoption (all forms), foster care, family loss, trauma, parenting, co-dependency, and more. However, I also help folks from all walks of life reduce their emotional suffering and achieve their goals. Whatever your needs are, I'm happy to see if I can help you suffer less and enjoy life more.
