Therapists in West Chester, PA

Change begins with one step. I look forward to partnering with you, so you're not alone on the journey towards growth. When you are ready, we will work together at your pace, nurturing growth with awareness, insight & skills, while learning to embrace & integrate your unique experiences as valuable pieces of the larger whole. As your awareness opens, your view becomes broader & clearer, helping to shift your perspective. In 'aha' moments, crucial understandings can be life changing, helping to clear a path forward with what's been in the way, keeping you stuck from momentum towards wellness, acceptance and improved relationships.

I believe in cultivating an honest and secure relationship between myself and each client. We will pay attention to relevant interpersonal dynamics that present themselves throughout our therapeutic work. Our prior experiences and significant events greatly impact the way that we relate to others and connect to the world. This can make it difficult to be transparent and vulnerable in therapy. We will first work collaboratively to establish trust and set expectations for our therapeutic work.

With over 20 years of mental health experience and 14 years practicing therapy, I have learned to specialize in relationship/couples therapy and work as well as individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, and other life and circumstantial issues. If you are looking to repair, strengthen, regain connection, improve intimacy, or generally work on your relationships or your mental health I can help you find that path. My experience has also led me to work with trauma in a systemic and experiential way and utilize EMDR, mindfulness and trauma informed interventions.

With 20 years experience of empowering individuals, couples and families, I aim to inspire those I counsel. I am passionate about people and the restoration, maintenance and progression of their relationships. I help people adjust to life changes including: academic, family or work related stress; education, employment or military relocation; and loss. I specialize in “before the ring” counseling, financial matters, interracial coupling, pregnancy care, and racial identity of Biracials. For those seeking Christian counseling, I am a Jesus follower and I am willing to incorporate faith into therapy upon request.

I have more than 20 years working as a licensed psychologist. I like to make the counseling process comfortable and relaxed for clients, so that the person seeking help can develop a trusting relationship with me. Feel free to call me for a free phone consultation. I am typically able to get back to people within a day or two so be sure to leave a number and a time during the day when you are available to talk. Please note that unfortunately, I am not available for appointments after 3pm.

Starting therapy can be scary, but we make it fun! As a therapist, I'm dedicated to finding tranquility amidst life's chaos. With empathy and compassion, we will work on anxiety management and the art of work/life balance. Anxiety can be an unwelcome guest, but together, we can learn to navigate its twists and turns. I'm here to provide a safe harbor, offering support and practical strategies to help ease the burden. Together, we'll explore boundaries, self-care practices, and mindful living to carve out a space where fulfillment and tranquility can coexist.

Is your child or teen struggling daily with negative thoughts and anxiety? Are you feeling lost and hopeless trying to figure out how to help them? Children and teens are more overwhelmed and stressed today than ever before. I seek to provide a safe and comforting environment where they can feel heard and understood. I am also passionate about working with mothers who are struggling with feeling overwhelmed, inadequate, anxious and underappreciated. I am dedicated to supporting mothers on their journey to emotional well-being and self-discovery, weaving mindfulness, humor and an authentic use of self into my approach.

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.

I am currently earning my Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy from Syracuse University. I received my Bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice and Psychology from Shippensburg University, and then spent the better part of the decade following graduation, serving my country in the United States Army. My ambition is to work with veterans, first responders, civil servants, and their families, however, my passion is to assist any and all families during the multitude of life transitions that spark turmoil, anxiety, depression, or difficult challenges for the family system.

Now Accepting New Clients! Hi, I'm Angela and I am a Marriage and Family therapist who works with couples and individuals struggling with self esteem, relationship issues, and understanding themselves and their emotions. You are more than what your struggles are, so I want to emphasize the importance of knowing you as an individual and how all of your relationships, responsibilities, and life experiences impact and shape who you are and how you interact with the world around you. I believe that building and creating meaningful and healthy relationships with ourselves and others has the power to help us live fulfilling lives.

I believe in multiple therapeutic approaches, understanding each person is an individual. I have a particular interest in working with children and fathers. I am a genuine lover and believer in humanity and feel this is felt by my clients. I use humor and non-traditional forms of therapy to build rapport and help each client feel they can overcome whatever barriers, struggles, or hardships life faces them with. If talk therapy hasn't worked for you before, we will work together to figure out what is best, using creative forms (art, music, poetry) or perhaps going for a walk while talking.

Feeling stuck? Let me help. I believe therapy should empower individuals towards developing a healthier relationship with self and others. My general goal when working with clients is to increase authenticity, competence, and open mindedness.

Starting therapy is an act of courage and also an act of hope. I'm glad you're here! My goal in this meaningful work is to create a safe space where you will feel supported in processing your challenges and empowered in working toward resolutions. My belief is that as individuals we thrive and heal in community, and healing begins when a person feels seen, heard, and accepted. It is through this that we become our best selves. In leveraging our unique stories and experiences, we use our power to contribute to the healing and wellness of others.

Are you ready to invest in yourself? Do you feel stress and anxiety are limiting your potential for happiness? Often, we are asked to give, even when we do not have ‘it’ to give. This can leave us feeling overwhelmed, lonely, and downright exhausted. The good news is that it doesn't have to be that way. I can help create the safe and calm space you need to reprioritize yourself, your surroundings and your goals. My clients do not just want to survive life, they are looking to thrive!

You’re feeling burned out like toast. You’re worn out with all the demands on you and wondering how to get back to feeling like yourself—resilient from the inside out. You crave peace again in your life, your work, your relationships.

Are you struggling to find peace? Do you feel destined for more? I believe that each of us is born with a life purpose and when we are not in alignment with that energy we can feel stuck, anxious, overwhelmed, uncertain, and even depressed. Together, we will explore the past, examine the present, and manifest a future that you’ve always desired. A few simple shifts in your awareness is often all that is needed to change your perception and heal the parts of your life that you are presently struggling with. I will help you obtain clarity, find peace and balance, and discover or awaken parts of yourself that have yet to be explored.

Creating a safe, compassionate, and supportive environment for you to process your experiences, explore your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, and try new ways to thinking and behaving is my goal as your treatment provider. Therapy should be a space of trust and a space to grow without concerns of criticism, shame, or guilt. Often the quote that 'all roads lead back to trauma' comes to my mind, we all have our own shaping experiences. I believe we all benefit from a safe landing space to explore, learn, and grow from our life experiences. Let's find what gives you meaning and further grow your life to support your needs and wants.
