Therapists in Media, PA

If you're reading this, you're likely thinking about the state of your relationship. It probably started off great, filled with happiness and understanding, but now things might have shifted. You might be dealing with arguments, let downs, or just feeling distant from each other. You're looking for a way to feel closer and more secure about your relationship, and you need help that's clear and helpful for your complicated situation. That's where I come in. I have a lot of experience working with couples who are going through tough times.

Are you a new mom (or even a seasoned mom!) and having difficulty within your role? Motherhood is hard. And your experience as a mother is important. I can help. I have devoted my practice to helping mothers create more satisfying, productive, and peaceful lives. I believe in the healing powers of the therapeutic relationship and work hard to foster a genuine connection with my clients. Our sessions will be interactive and collaborative. I have a great passion for 'helping people help themselves' and work in a participatory manner with my clients. I look forward to being on the journey to wellness with you.

I am passionate about helping people heal, grow, and thrive, by working through trauma, improving communication, and identifying and achieving goals. I understand that seeking therapy can be daunting, but there is hope. Whether you are experiencing relationship issues, trauma, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, grief/loss, larger existential exploration or questions of identity, you don't have to work through it alone. In addition to therapy, I also provide clinical supervision to those seeking their LPC and LCSW.

We’re in an age of overwhelm. I help clients develop healthy self-compassion as they balance responsibilities and relationships with the cumulative stress of unresolved traumas and/or the current economic, political, and environmental crises. When we explore patterns in our boundaries, families, and relationships, we can reveal deeper truths and unmet needs, and are empowered to make changes that promote safety and reduce the feeling of being stuck. It is important that you feel heard by a professional who supports you. Third Culture Kids, nomads, fish out of water, and micro-minorities welcome. We will create context.

Feeling overwhelmed despite your best efforts? Are you questioning your path or purpose or experiencing self- doubt? Clients come to see me for a variety of reasons including navigating a difficult life transition, recovering from a painful heartbreak, loss or trauma, parenting support or simply longing for more self awareness and to improve their relationships or marriages. I enjoy working with motivated clients to identify obstacles and barriers that hinder their personal growth. It's hard to see possibilities when you are overwhelmed. That's where I come in. Call me and let's discuss what success looks like for you.

I work with adults with various backgrounds, needs, and concerns. I can meet with an individual, couples, partners, families (biological and chosen). I will work in collaboration with you to find ways to manage challenges that may arise and cause distress by helping you to set realistic goals and to create steps to achieve those goals, all while allowing you to find empowerment in those actions, bringing hope to tough situations, and enhancing your strengths and resiliency.

What if your best life is just a phone call away? What would you be willing to do??? Don't let guilt, shame, heart aches, or betrayal hold you back any longer. Live long enough and you or someone you know can experience any of these issues. Experiencing any of these circumstances can leave you feeling loss, helpless, hopeless and stuck. Unresolved hurts from our past or present can keep us trapped or disillusioned that life can never get better. My name is Valerie Latney and I would be honored to journey with you into well being.

Do you long to claim your power and be the cause of your life, not a reaction? I am here to help! I offer a holistic approach to psychotherapy, viewing life and life experiences as part of the larger process of development. Whatever is happening to you now is viewed as a positive opportunity for growth.

Have you been feeling overwhelmed by the smallest of tasks lately? Do you watch mental health Tik-Tok videos and think: " that sounds like me!" ?

Whatever your reason may be for having the courage and insight to seek help, I am here for you. I believe therapy is like getting an oil change for your mind. Let's get it changed regularly so we can keep you running in your best form.

Anxiety, Stress, or Adverse experience(s), may be holding you back from taking the next step toward greatness in your personal or professional life. You long to break free from the grips of negative thoughts and self-limiting beliefs that have held you back for far too long. You recognize the value of investing in your mental health and are ready to embark on a transformative healing process of self-awareness, managing stress and setbacks more effectively, and cultivating healthier relationships with yourself and others. You ultimately want to experience a greater sense of fulfillment, happiness, and purpose in your life.

Do struggle with a lack of motivation, procrastination, depression, anxiety, feeling easily distracted, or having difficulty making decisions? Have you ever been described as lazy, messy, forgetful, or overly emotional? These are signs of ADHD, which often goes undiagnosed or misdiagnosed in women. Many people often feel like "bad adults" or struggle to understand why life tasks that seem simple for others are so difficult for them. The symptoms of ADHD, especially when left untreated, can seriously affect everyday life and relationships. Together we can find creative solutions to help manage these symptoms.

Each of us faces unique challenges as we go through life. Whether these challenges take the form of problems with work or relationships, with anxiety or depression, or simply with dissatisfaction over the current state of our lives, we all want to make improvements in how we experience our lives. We may also find that life presents certain demands of us at different stages requiring us to stretch beyond our accustomed habits and ways of being. Often our challenges can seem daunting, at times insurmountable, yet with the right support and perspective, we can be inspired to make positive changes.

Sometimes, it’s about where to start. How will you talk to this stranger – or why would you? My goal is to provide a safe place to talk and to not be a stranger. I often do 15-minute phone chats so you can “pre-meet” me and get that initial edge out of the way. I want to help you to (re)discover your own voice, to understand your reactions, to recover a more daring, loving self – someone who is more and not less. I won’t be a stranger for long because I’ve journeyed on similar paths.
