Therapists in Langhorne, PA

My approach to therapy begins with meeting the individual where they are in their lives and creating a safe, non-judgmental space to work on identifying strengths and challenges. I have worked with a diverse group of individuals with a variety of concerns, such as anxiety, depression, relationship and family struggles, stress management, substance abuse, and issues relating to the LGBTQIA+ spectrum. As a former Division I & professional athlete, I have a special interest in working with competitive athletes. I incorporate strengths-based, solution-focused, motivational interviewing, CBT, & ACT therapeutic models within my practice.

I specialize in working with children, adolescents, & young adults experiencing emotional dysregulation, low self-esteem, anxiety & stress, disordered eating/eating disorders, body image issues, & other mental health concerns. I have experience providing individual counseling in a private practice setting. I often draw concepts from motivational interviewing, CBT, solution-focused therapy, DBT, & ACT, but will always meet clients where they are. I assist clients in recognizing their personal strengths to utilize during hardships.

I specialize in Depression, Anxiety, & Trauma/Substance Use. I introduce therapeutic interventions appropriate for an individual's comfort level, leading to long-term personal growth. I allow you to "take the wheel" and work with you as you define your therapy goals. I encourage you to have a voice, to speak up if an area of your treatment is not working for you, and to ask questions. I am candid in that if there is an answer to a question I do not know, I will research and consult with my supervisor to get you the best answer possible.

Are you struggling with a life transition, stressors, anxiety, or depression?

I treat Anxiety, depression, lack of self-acceptance, and grief problems. I help with the management of anxiety symptoms and depression, helping you to develop coping skills to manage your every day. I help clients identify and challenge cognitive distortions and replace them with positive affirmations. I will teach some mindfulness meditation to help you when anxious & help you obtain a better understanding of your mental health to cope with your emotions.

I am accepting clients ranging from fourteen years of age and older. I work with individuals, families, and couples. Although I have experience treating an eclectic range of concerns, ideally, my clients may be facing symptoms of anxiety, depression, substance misuse, and PTSD. I have great expertise in treating dually-diagnosed clients, substance misuse, and mental health. The stress and hardships that come with these issues are often too much to handle on your own; please let me help.

I approach counseling as a relationship, building trust and partnership with each of my clients. I focus on an individualized treatment style which incorporates personal/family needs to integrate cognitive-behavioral, relational, and emotional approaches to therapy. I build on an individual's personal strengths, values, and skills to work together with clients on meeting their goals.

I am passionate about supporting individuals on their journey to healing, self-discovery, and personal growth. With a foundation in both counseling and the creative arts, I offer a unique and holistic approach to well-being. Art has the incredible ability to convey emotions, thoughts, and experiences that might be difficult to express verbally. Through art therapy, I create a safe and non-judgmental space for you to engage in creative processes, fostering self-awareness and insight. Whether you're dealing with stress, trauma, relationship challenges or simply seeking personal growth, art therapy can be a powerful tool.

Taking the time to learn & care for yourself is a brave and rewarding journey. To cope, grow, and heal are intergyral parts of therapy. My goal as a therapist is to ultimately help you feel empowered and to live as authentically as you can. I work with clients ranging from teens to adults. I practice in the states of PA & NJ. I pride myself on being culturally informed and affirming to all. I treat a wide array of struggles including: childhood trauma, emotional trauma, workplace trauma, medical trauma, mood disorders, personality disorders, life transitions, identity struggles, anxiety, addictions, and self-esteem difficulties.

My ideal candidate is struggling with intrusive thoughts and anxiety; they need both a safe space to share their thoughts and emotions, as well as guidance; their goals are to develop a healthier relationship with themself, as well as develop coping skills and tools to manage their mental health concerns better.

My ideal client struggles with Anxiety, Depression, Eating Disorders, Trauma, and/or related conditions. They are motivated for change or at least open to the possibility of change. They are open to feedback and willing to lean into the therapeutic process. They do not need to have clear goals for the therapeutic process right away but are willing to work to identify these goals in the treatment process. They would want to improve their life in some way, or even just their relationship with themselves.

Are you struggling with body image, your relationship to food, or an eating disorder? Are you feeling overwhelmed by grief, anxiety, depression, or suicidal thoughts? I can help. I strive to build a trusting relationship with everyone I work with that allows for space to talk through difficult life experiences. I will never label behavior or coping skills as bad or maladaptive. Instead, we will identify the ways these things have helped you cope & survive, and explore if there are other coping skills that will help you in a different way. We will work together to identify your strengths, heal emotional wounds, and express emotions.

Psychology for YOU. If you are experiencing a problem or something troubles you in your mind, this is the moment to address it. The opportunity for you to express yourself and receive professional attention is in your hands now. If we work together we can reach your goals. “Don't be pushed around by the fears in your mind. Be led by the dreams in your heart.” ― Roy T. Bennett

I'm experienced in helping individuals with anxiety, depression, grief and loss, perfectionism, trauma, and low self-view. For interpersonal skills, I have experience with helping my clients in setting boundaries and sorting through relational issues. In addition, whether you have ADHD or executive function issues we can build tools for motivation and focus.

My ideal client wants something better, has no idea what "better" is or looks like, and has no idea where to start. They are still determining if they are ready to start or commit to that change. What they need is a person and a space to figure it out. Deep down, they know where they are right now can be better, whether in relationships, emotions, daily habits, major life goals, or anything in-between. But, most importantly, they want a space where they can process and grow from that place and build a sustainable life.

I am adept at supporting clients with anxiety, depression, and trauma-related symptoms, seeking greater self-awareness, clarity, and insight about their current struggles and how to shift them. My ideal client is motivated to change and is interested in co-creating the goals to work towards that change, with the ultimate aim being to reduce distress and build/nurture a rich and meaningful life. I often suggest homework to help practice the skills we are learning together in session. I integrate extensive clinical experience, specialized training, & my unique personality (including a healthy dose of confidence, humility, and humor).

Are you a young adult dealing primarily with anxiety and life transition issues? This could be a recent college graduate starting their first big job, a major transition. I like walking beside them through these transitions and being an additional support. I also like helping people learn breathing techniques to manage anxiety and learn about polyvagal theory and a bottom-up approach. I enjoy working with clients who can articulate their goals, such as managing anxiety better and working on anxiety in different settings.
