Elders (65+) Therapists in Ardmore, PA

In my psychology practice I help people address problems of depression, anxiety, coping with stress, adjusting to difficult life changes or events, self-esteem issues, relationship/marital concerns, and work related difficulties. I have a clinical specialty in assessing and treating problems related to drug and alcohol use.

I am an individual, couples and family therapist with more than twenty years experience treating couples issues, adolescent and family problems, grief and bereavement, depression and adjustment problems. My primary goal as a therapist is to help my clients effectively meet and respond to the issues and problems of their lives, either in their roles as parents, spouses, or teenagers. I work hard to understand each client and family member's dilemmas and struggles, and to create an atmosphere of trust so that each session provides a place where one is heard, understood and supported.

Many of us encounter times in our lives when we need support and guidance to find our way. I provide a thoughtful, compassionate and attentive presence in which you can make sense of yourself, your past, your present and your future. I believe when we are truly listened to, we can heal our deepest wounds and develop our capacities to their greatest fulfillment. In over 20 years as a psychotherapist, I have helped people overcome a wide variety of issues, from depression and anxiety to relationship issues, career indecision, and addictions.

Immediate openings for children, teens, and adults! Call for a free 15 min consultation! Sometimes people get stuck in patterns that make life feel unsatisfying and empty. Maybe you feel depressed, anxious, or are struggling with life balance in general. Perhaps you are experiencing relationship issues, parenting issues, or have a painful past event that you can't seem to let go. Psychotherapy allows you the space to understand how your past and present thoughts and experiences create the unhealthy patterns that become ingrained.

I am dedicated to helping each individual, couple or family find the keys to a happier and more satisfying life. To this end, I make a special effort to understand each person's dilemmas and what it would take to help them increase their experiences of joy and pleasure in their personal lives, one moment at a time. As the sources of pain emerge in therapy, I include each person's needs in the search for steps forward. My practice includes many individuals and couples who suffer from depression, anxiety, relationship distress, sexual dissatisfaction and the effects of past trauma.

I work with people, as individuals or with others, who are trying to address difficulties in their life or change patterns of behavior that are problematic. My emphasis is to try to help people understand what may be driving their problems and try to use that awareness to have more control over their interactions. I try to understand what is truly important to the individuals I work with and see how their actual behaviors and choices are consistent (or not) with their values and purpose. I also work with individuals as an executive coach to help with career development and optimizing performance

We are living in challenging times. Children and parents need support to get through issues such as divorce, loss of a loved one, illness of a family member, school pressures, adolescent conflict, adult children moving back into the home and bullying. Within the context of family therapy, I work with children ages three through the young adult years. I am a trained play therapist and able to help children and adolescents express their feelings and deep emotions. I am able to work, both individually with family members and in family therapy, to support change and growth for the entire family.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist and relationship coach specializing in narcissistic abuse. I am also a media contributor, author, and the owner of The Z Group, a private therapy practice specializing in anxiety, depression, and complex relationship dynamics. Narcissistic abuse in any relationship is insidious, confusing, and often terrifying. These relationships can be extremely isolating and lonely. Support feels limited; sometimes even impossible to obtain. You may feel trapped for a myriad of reasons including lack of social support, limited access to finances, fear of losing custody of your children, and low self worth.

Are you an individual or couple that are new to therapy? Wouldn't you love to embark on a journey to discover your true self and/or develop meaningful relationships with the significant people in your life? We are all inundated with "shoulds" or conditioned to fulfill other people's expectations. Identifying and accepting your true self will help shed anxiety and overcome depressive symptoms. I understand the importance of living a fulfilling life, and I am here to help you achieve that. Together, we can work toward setting realistic & achievable goals that will bring you happiness and satisfaction.

Sometimes life hands us difficult challenges. As a Marriage and Family Therapist with over 20 years of experience, I can help you find solutions to life's problems. In therapy you will learn how to heal and strengthen your relationship with yourself and how to create a more loving connection with your partner. I incorporate a mix of psychological, educational and spiritual approaches, including EFT and EMDR, to assist in the letting go of disturbing thoughts and feelings, daily relational conflicts and emotional distancing. It is deeply rewarding for me when clients come to experience themselves as confident and lovable, their partner safe and valuable.

The one-on-one sessions I offer can be a good fit for you if you’re feeling stuck or that life is passing you by; you want to unlock more of your strengths; you're struggling to adapt to a big change; or you feel like you keep getting in your own way. We could work together on managing stress, overcoming self-sabotage, reducing burnout, finding joy and meaning, navigating a career change, dealing with midlife challenges, strengthening relationships, creating helpful thinking patterns, relieving chronic seriousness, and processing childhood pain.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), a Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor, Substance Abuse Professional with DoT and DBT certified therapist. I hold a master's degree in Public Health and Counseling Psychology . I am interested in treating a wide array of issues, including depression, anxiety, and substance-related disorder and Personality Disorder. I am also specialized in group and individual therapy. As a mental health therapist, I am passionate about helping my patients foster self-awareness and gain insight into their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.

Someone made a mistake at work that you had to stay late to fix – no problem. Your spouse forgot to pick up the cake you reminded him about five times – all good. The kids knocked over and broke an heirloom vase – don’t worry about it. You are so understanding and forgiving with everyone in your life. But, if you make the tiniest error, you can’t let yourself live it down. You’re unsure why it’s so impossible for you to accept anything less than perfection. You suspect it may have to do with unresolved pain from your past. But you can’t let anyone know you’re suffering, so you pretend everything is fine and hope no one notices.

Are you struggling with relationships? Experiencing problems with anxiety, depression, or just an overall sense of unhappiness? Do you want something in your life to change but feel stuck? I'm a Psychotherapist who is blessed to do work that I love and am passionate about. I'm constantly inspired by the client's awareness, growth and transformation process that occurs in therapy. The therapeutic relationship is the best indicator of effective outcomes for clients. Therefore I focus on building relationships with emotional safety, comfort and trust. I tailor my theoretical approach to fit each individual's specific needs.

In my 25 years as a therapist my approach is to assist clients in identifying their goals and figure out what they need to move forward and experience a happier, more peaceful life. I support clients in addressing their struggles with mood concerns, anxiety, trauma, parenting, and life stressors.

Not currently accepting new clients- waitlist only. My approach to therapy is holistic, engaging and centered around highlighting my client’s strengths so that these can be harnessed to help them reach their goals. I employ both psychodynamic and behaviorally oriented approaches and specialize treating anxiety, ADHD, mood disorders, and relational issues. I also have training in mindfulness based stress reduction, and have a particular interest in helping women navigate life transitions, challenges in intimate relationships/dating, and their journey with pregnancy and parenthood.

I work with individuals, couples, and families. Adults and children who are dealing with bereavement, medical issues, and other life stressors are among my clients. Sandtray Therapy and Play Therapy are among the modalities I use to help adults and children express themselves and heal. When appropriate, these methods are effectively combined with Family Therapy to help people cope with traumatic life experiences, emotional problems and relationship difficulties.

You may be the person others turn to for support, or you excel at perceiving other people's feelings. These are strengths, but can take a toll on your well-being over time if your own needs are neglected. Whether you are hoping to feel calmer and more alive, navigate a big change, or resolve a painful situation, therapy can help. I specialize in treating people who are living with anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, caregiving stress, or medical illness. I help people heal from past difficulties and increase feelings of contentment, creativity, connection, and sense of fulfillment in their lives.

It is my honor to collaborate with clients as they access their strengths and resilience to make and maintain meaningful change. I work to create a warm, non-judgment, and trauma-informed therapy space, so we can develop an individualized treatment plan tailored to your personal values and needs. We then partner together as we explore the many facets and layers of you, your family, and your environment in order to help you learn more about yourself, understand your struggles, and make concrete changes in your life. I believe in a person’s ongoing ability to grow and change and it is my pleasure to partner with you on that journey.
