Therapists in West Chester, PA

Research shows that individuals in other countries outside of the United States are simply happier. According to U.S. News, the United States comes in at a staggering 19th place, as far as World’s Happiest Countries goes. I have traveled to over 45 countries to gain a better understanding of precisely why this is. I seek to find not only why individuals in other countries are happier, what qualities they possess, in addition to what their daily lifestyles encompass that encourage happiness levels.

Do you often feel like you are threading water, instead of surfing above it? Are you doubting that you are not where you want to be in your life? Perhaps you are seeking clarity and insight, and calm after turbulence. I strive to facilitate self-empowerment and self-efficacy through adaptive coping/behavioral skills, strengthening cognitive insight, while honoring that change is hard when life gets hard. My work with individuals who have felt unheard and invalidated has led me to conceptualize concerns related to eating disorders, anxiety, depression, and substance use as closely intertwined.

Throughout my career I have enjoyed working as a psychologist delivering counseling, consultation and assessment services. I consider it a privilege to be invited into an individual's world at a time of need and work hard to build a trusting alliance with each person. I listen to my clients and engage them around the unique stories they share so we can set goals and a treatment plan that is personally tailored to each individual and/or couple. My approach is based on years of experience and a solid theoretical foundation. It is a relational one such that I use our therapeutic connection to facilitate change.

People create knowledge in relationships. We NEED other minds to hone impressions into skills. We need explicit communication: this is HOW to create knowledge. The risks of self-disclosure are offset with great attendance, courage & proactive participation. It is HOW not WHAT problem is raised that yields solutions. Emotions are priceless data delivery systems; respected, examined & honored. Honest, caring connection buffer high-risk daring sharing. Problems are commonplace, unlike problem solving. Doing things differently creates different outcomes. At OATS YOU will build performance strength or you will be gone. It is up to you.

Hello and Welcome! Are you struggling with showing yourself self-compassion? Are you ready to regain your spark and power? Are you a domestic violence survivor or struggling to get out of an unhealthy relationship? Are you ready to start your journey to Self-Love? If you answered yes to one or more of these questions, than you are in the right place! For the past 15 years, as a Mental Health Therapist, I have been working with adolescents and adults that struggle with symptoms of trauma such as PTSD, depression, anxiety, loss of sense "Who I am", low self-worth, and mistrust by helping them find their purpose and their "WHY".

Therapy can create greater meaning in your life, illuminate and transform unhealthy patterns, and nourish a sense of connection to those around you. Whether you seek help with specific concerns---like childhood traumas, current traumas, anxiety, depression, or relationship crisis---maybe, you simply want to better understand yourself, I am here to help. I create a safe and supportive space to help your process your emotion, identify strengths and weaknesses, and barriers to reaching your ultimate goal of self healing.

If you are looking for guidance with anxiety, fears, depression, or stress, it takes courage to ask for help. Admitting you can’t do everything on your own, is the first step toward achieving wellness in a fast paced, demanding world. The good news is, asking for help gets easier with a little practice. The way in which we cope in the world is greatly influenced by how we see the world. Asking for help, and obtaining a fresh perspective is often the first and most profound step toward developing the mental muscle needed to become stronger. The more support you gain, the better equipped you will be to take on bigger challenges!
