Family Therapy in Bucks County, PA

Well, hello there! I'm Dr. Jen and I am a mother of three children, pet mom of four, and PA licensed psychologist and nationally certified school psychologist. I have worked in a variety of different levels of care such as Intensive Behavioral Health Services (formerly BHRS), residential, and private practices. Some of my former roles include working as school psychologist for the Green Tree School and HMS school. I am also the former Director of Evaluations at the Center for Autism. My previous experiences place me as a unique resource to families to help them navigate both home and school issues which is no easy task!

We are a nonprofit, community-based bereavement resource supporting children and families through grief. Our vision is to be the preferred and most trusted local bereavement resource for children and families by providing emotional support as they grieve the loss of someone they love.

My style is gentle and compassionate yet direct enough to get to the root of the issue. My goal is to listen well to what has brought my clients to counseling and bring my expertise to the table from a place of understanding my clients' lives. I do this all while offering what I call "biblical worldview integration" for those who are of the Christian faith. I offer biblically-based counseling but am willing to meet with clients of different religious backgrounds and respect that not everyone believes what I believe.

We encourage self-exploration into the patterns that keep individuals stuck, and prevent them from moving forward. We help client's capitalize on their strengths to focus on reaching their highest potential.

Clients who have the desire to make some changes to their lives and work towards their goals are needed!

My ideal client would be someone motivated to engage in motivational interviewing and change work.

An ideal client for me is someone who has difficulty managing their emotions, engages in frequent negative thinking, and has trouble communicating their needs with family and friends. They want to decrease their anxious or depressive behaviors but have little knowledge of how to begin regulating their emotions.

I work with individuals, couples and families. It doesn't matter how many people are sitting in the office, I view each individual within the context of the systems they live in each day. We are all part of many systems, marital, family, school, community, work. The relationships and importance each of these systems place on individuals can sometimes can lead to breakdowns in communication and mental health issues, such as depression and anxiety. Treating the dysfunction in the relationship often restores the feeling of wholeness in an individual and of course leads to stronger deeper relationships between individuals.

Establishing a trusting relationship and environment that is warm and supportive where clients feel safe and motivated to engage in their therapeutic journey is my essential goal. My approach to therapy is formulated by the uniqueness of the person along with the uniqueness of the environmental and familial systems within which they have developed. Over the past 23 years I have worked with individuals, groups, families, and couples and have treated several mental and emotional health issues. Some of these issues include: Depression, Anxiety, Grief, ADHD, Self-Esteem, Life Transitions, Relationship/Family, and Attachment.

I believe in providing a safe environment where clients can explore their feelings, fears, and concerns. In attaining a strong and genuine therapeutic relationship, therapy can be a life-changing experience. As a Licensed Professional Counselor with a concentration in Marriage and Family Therapy, I have extensive training in high conflict families as well as with children and teenagers with behavioral issues. I enjoy working with couples to resolve negative interaction patterns and intimacy issues. I am available for individual, family, and/or couples therapy sessions.
