Therapists in Jenkintown, PA

My clients range in age, from teens to older adults, each with a unique voice and story. With all my clients, I aim to build a relationship built on trust and warmth so that everyone feels seen, heard, and valued. My clients are navigating challenges related to depression, anxiety, trauma, grief and loss, physical illness, life transitions, school stress, relationship changes, perinatal distress, and more. These stressors in life can be exhausting and can leave anyone with a sense of being stuck. In our sessions together, we will sort through these challenges, find meaning, and new paths forward.

Welcome and thank you for taking the time to view my profile. I'm sure by this point, finding the courage and motivation to begin the search for the best therapeutic fit has been an uphill process, however, I'd like to take this moment together to acknowledge the determination and resilience you've shown thus far in order to begin your therapeutic journey.

Whether you are struggling with feeling good about yourself, overwhelm, grief, finding life meaning, unhelpful relationship patterns, or anything else weighing on your mind and heart, I would be honored to navigate your journey with you. No concerns are too big or too small-if it matters to you, it matters to me. I believe therapeutic success involves not getting rid of parts of you that struggle but uncovering your inner strengths to cope and reduce symptoms in healthy ways, in addition to acknowledging accomplishments big or small, and trusting the process, as change may take longer or look different than you may expect.

Life can be stressful. Learning to stop questioning, judging and criticizing yourself, and finding the confidence to move forward can be difficult. I can help you work through the anxiety and depression that challenges you relentlessly. You'll learn to stop reacting to insignificant triggers and balance your emotions, leading to healthier relationships with family and friends. I will create a safe space where we can work together on the struggles you face. My passion is to help people transform themselves and heal from the past.

I am a Therapist Resource for the Dr. Phil television series. I creatively integrate positive psychology with a holistic spiritual approach to enhance healing and growth for individuals, couples and families. My holistic approach includes an in-depth evaluation to uncover and treat conditions that standard medical practice often overlooks. This includes psychological, social, physical, medical conditions, nutrition, lifestyle changes, vitamins and supplements that are researched and found to safely improve wellness.

Life can be difficult. Have you been feeling overwhelmed? Do you find yourself repeating the same patterns, with the same painful results? We can work to find the source of these patterns and understand the messages impacting your life. As a therapist, my goal is to create a collaborative relationship in which you find the support, warmth and safety to challenge the thoughts, beliefs and behaviors that may be holding you back. I would be honored to hear your story and work with you towards change and healing.

Within each one of us is an inner child that holds the many hurts of our life. To survive this world, we hide the child away, building strong brick walls, preventing the child from emerging. Sometimes we use our “busyness” to ignore the cries of the child behind the barricades. Or we turn to anger, addiction and numbness to drown out the deafening cries. In our moments of brokenness, we stop and wonder, “Is this how I will have to live the rest of my life?” Trauma touches us all in different ways. The role of a therapist is to guide you through the pain and hurt so you can live a life of intention, meaning and inner peace.

My favorite part of helping people is collaborating with my clients. I work together with teens and adults to help them reach their goals, get some relief and learn new ways to cope. As a licensed professional counselor and a Nationally Certified Counselor, my approach is both nurturing and strengths-based. I believe that every person is unique and has the ability to cope and heal.

The fact that you’re reading this means that you're ready to feel better. It takes courage to reach out to a therapist and means that you have hope that things can be better. Hope is what fuels the work of therapy and together we can help you to manage anxiety, depression and stress so that you can live your happiest life. Therapy is such a rewarding process and I know firsthand that it works and that YOU are so worth it. Being a therapist is my calling, my passion and my purpose and it would be my honor to travel with you on your journey to your Apogee, to your highest self, your journey to YOU!

As a therapist with over 15 years of experience, I specialize in perinatal mood disorders, fertility challenges, intimacy and sex issues, sexual kink, and lactation difficulties. As a mother who has personally struggled with fertility and loss, I understand how difficult these issues can be. That's why I offer a compassionate, non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings and receive customized treatment that meets your unique needs. I do also have expertise in the poly/Enm lifestyle and can help navigate your journey of exploration.

Do you worry all the time? Is it hard for you to turn your thoughts off? Would you like to enjoy the present moment, but feel unable to do so because you are so focused on the past or future? For many people, their fears negatively affect their relationships, work and health. They don't know how to let go of their worries or they've tried things that only made their problems worse.

I have a passion for working with those exploring gender and sexual identity, trauma, substance use, recovery, and those in the LGBTQ+ community. The therapy I provide is tailored to your individual needs and can help you facilitate personal growth and development. Therapy is most effective when you feel safe and respected. I would be honored to provide that space for you. I view my work with you as a collaborative process. I want to learn more about you and understand the problems you are facing from your perspective. I can provide letters for gender confirmation surgery.

Whether you are experiencing life transitions, a family crisis, or have a diagnosable mental health concern, the Full Being team is here to support.

Our clinicians have training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Trauma-Focused CBT, Mindfulness, and more. Services offered include individual, family & couples sessions.

I am a clinical psychologist with 30 years experience helping individuals and couples find relief from depression, anxiety, addiction, OCD and relationship problems. We will use evidence-based approaches that have been scientifically proven to work, developing coping skills and new habits that are easy to learn and apply to everyday life. I believe we are all experts in our own lives and often already possess answers to our problems without realizing it. I work collaboratively to help set specific achievable goals, avoid previously hurtful thoughts and behaviors, and overcome barriers to finding effective solutions.

I work specifically with adults struggling with sex-related issues. These include, but are not limited to: intimacy issues in relationships; lack of sexual education in young adulthood; infidelity; sexual dysfunction; couples in ethical non-monogamous relationships looking for guidance with communication or other relationships; and individuals who are in the kink, BDSM, or sex-work communities and would like informed therapeutic care.

I'm Gillian (GILL-lee-en) and I provide therapy to adults, couples, and adolescents. My experiences have led me to develop expertise in anxiety, depression, substance abuse, co-occurring disorders, mood disorders, adjustment disorders, individuals with chronic/terminal illness, professionals working in helping fields, work-place stressors, relationship stress, post-partum anxiety, parents of young children. I expanded my practice and additionally offer Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP). KAP can be helpful for people who have depression or anxiety, are feeling “stuck”, and want to get out of a default way of thinking.

How are you supposed to go on? It feels like your entire life has been turned on its head. Everything is different now. Your spouse is gone, and you don’t know how to move forward. All the things that used to seem so important to you have lost their meaning. The work assignments you once obsessed over are being ignored. The social schedule you spent such care curating now feels worthless. Hobbies are meaningless. Self-care is pointless. Friends and family offer their support, but it all feels hollow. No one understands what you’re going through. All you want to do is stay at home in bed and hide from the world forever.

Do you find it hard to sleep at night because thoughts race through your head? Have you been feeling down, not like the old you? Perhaps you are finding it tough to deal with your boss, co-workers or your loved ones. Whatever difficulties and distress you may be facing, you have just taken the first steps towards improving your life. By working together, you & I can develop a collaborative relationship full of warmth & lacking in judgment. We will develop an environment of safety & trust to foster your growth & experience of more fulfilling connections.

With over 30 years of experience, I create a safe environment to be heard, accepted, and challenged for true growth and happiness. My passion is working with individuals, families, and parents struggling with daily parenting and relationship issues. With a strong background in treating those with addictive behaviors, such as substance use, disordered eating, gaming, and relationship dependencies, I use an individualized, eclectic approach to treat everyone and their families individually, with care, compassion and understanding.
