Therapists in Lansdale, PA

Feeling lost, confused, stuck in repetitive patterns that often time leave you with more questions, doubts, and uncertainties? Most of us called it "Life". As a marriage and family therapist, I help clients to reframe these negative experiences into life-altering opportunities where growth, healing, and resiliency can occur. Through co-discovery, we will pursue the awareness and mindset necessary for authentic living. Everyone possesses the innate capability to be happy and form long-lasting, healthy relationships. I assist in fostering the tools necessary for such.

I believe an important part of the therapy process is developing a flexible and collaborative relationship in which the client feels safe to explore, understand, and change relationships and behaviors, so that he or she may grow in a satisfying, creative, and life enhancing way. I have worked as a clinician for over twenty years and maintain a general practice for adults, families and children.

Today's world is plagued by distractions that take us away from what is fundamentally important. Learning to separate from an illogical need to please others may allow us to determine our path and help us to be true to ourselves. There is no such thing as an ideal client, only willingness to look within as a shared experience is necessary for growth.

“Brian’s help is sought when behavioral approaches fail. Whether for anxious/depressive/compulsive symptoms, relational or sexual issues, or a sense of fragmenting, or inner emptiness—or to make other life transformations. He works with skill & sensitivity to help patients catalyze change, open to new possibilities—and simultaneously find acceptance for themselves where they are—as they are. This is facilitated by deep therapeutic listening, & fostering insight into unconscious conflicts, unwanted patterns, & areas of stuckness—that sabotage even our best intentions to change or become happy—to be more real or feel more alive SM,TM

My experiences living in and working with people from multiple cultures and faith backgrounds help me to tailor therapy to your unique needs and goals. My professional experiences range from marriage and parenting issues, mood and anxiety disorders, delinquency, veterans' issues, career selection, bereavement, trauma recovery, family violence, adoption & infertility issues, relationship problems, cross-cultural adjustment, chronic illness and pain, and the challenges of living with ADHD and other learning difficulties.

Teens, young adults, and families face challenges and hardships that may feel insurmountable. A time of great potential for personal growth for a young person and for each family member is often hindered by rigid patterns of relating and communicating. It can be difficult to start talking about what is not working and what needs to change.

Feeling stagnant or stuck? Do you feel lost, overwhelmed, unfulfilled, or isolated? Do you find yourself repeating the same behaviors, even though you know they are not helping you get to where you want to be? You want things to be different with your entire being, but for whatever reason just cant seem to get there. You've turned to addictive behaviors or developed an unhealthy relationship with food to cope. Self sabotage and self criticism turns into a vicious cycle. You have tried therapy before, but didn't feel like you got what you needed because you were listened to but not challenged or pushed out of your comfort zone.

It's completely understandable if you are feeling stuck or lost lately. I work collaboratively with clients to get a sense of relief from the daily grind and uncover patterns that are getting in their way. I tailor my approach to each client’s unique background, context, and personality with the goal of developing supportive and productive therapeutic relationships. As a result, clients are able to cope more effectively with whatever immediate concerns or stressors they are experiencing as well as work toward long-term changes that will make a meaningful difference in their lives.

Oftentimes, people just need someone to listen to them, to help them work through an issue, and sort out their feelings. That's where I come in as a licensed psychotherapist as well as a medical social worker. I'm skilled at hearing what people are saying and helping them to figure out strategies for improving their situation. I work with a variety of clients ---men, women and children from all sexualities, gender identities, and races to help them with all sorts of issues. My clientele ranges in ages; however, a majority of my clients are in their early 30's.

Drawing on extensive training and background, I offer a widely varied range of treatment specialties in an interactive emotionally present therapy supporting my client's personal growth and well being as they learn techniques to reduce stress, clear the mind of fears and illusions, connecting to their own needs and feelings. My experience confirms that the expertise of the therapist is important, but equally vital is her depth of caring. I approach each client with an eclectic and open mind, drawing on techniques from Structural Family Therapy for Marital and Family problems, Cognitive/Behavioral, Mind/Body, Psychodynamic, Jungian-Oriented Dreamwork, Existential/Humanistic, Hypnotherapy.

Many people experience times when they feel stuck in some important aspect of their lives, and want to find a way forward that is true to who they are and to the values that matter to them. Being stuck is often connected to unprocessed early experiences, compounded by living in the turmoil of complex and difficult times, and navigating what appear to be paradigm shifts in how we understand what is happening in and to our world. Therapy can provide a way to work towards clarity, and towards building, maintaining and balancing a healthy sense of self, healthy relationships with others, and a life that makes sense and works for us.
