Integrative Therapists in Flourtown, PA

I have immediate openings in PA! It is not uncommon for people to arrive at a place in life feeling imbalanced, stuck, and sometimes defeated. In my practice, I work collaboratively with my client's to move forward through these difficult times. I utilize an integrative mindful approach to address the person as a whole and to promote balance, healing, and wellness. I believe in meeting each individual where they are and jointly creating a plan that will best meet their needs and assist them in digging in to let the inner beauty shine through.

Your brain knows your story. Your body knows how you have been impacted by life. Transformative Touch is the healing balm for those places in you that have been bruised, scratched, or worn down. If your feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or exhausted by life, I can help. Come on in and find REST for your mind, RESTORE movement to your body, and RE-PAIR old belief patterns that no longer serve you.

Let's check in for a moment. Are you overwhelmed by stress, life transitions, and past unhealed wounds? Are you exhausted from the ongoing fight against social injustices? Or maybe you’re unsure what’s happening, but you know something feels “off.” Therapy is a valuable tool for holding space for your suffering, determining the roots of your pain, and developing new techniques to make meaningful life changes that support your mental health.

Is it difficult to feel present or manage your stress? Do you wish for greater balance in your life? I serve adults & couples who struggle with anxiety, caretaking, grief/loss, and complex trauma. Whatever challenges impact you, I hope together we can explore healthier ways of regulating during emotional uncertainty, as well as empower your voice in the processes of healing.

Concerns related to sex and intimacy are some of the most sensitive and personal. Experiencing sexual concerns, such as low sexual desire, erectile dysfunction, pelvic pain, or difficulty with orgasm no longer has to be secretive or embarrassing. Finding a therapist who is open, supportive, and has effective tools is imperative on the journey to satisfaction and pleasure. Using a Cognitive Behavioral & collaborative approach, I work with individuals or couples to help them further understand the concerns that effect them, their relationships, & their sexual functioning.

My therapeutic approach revolves around you—your unique needs, dreams, and the pursuit of genuine peace of mind. In my practice, I've had the privilege of working with extraordinary individuals like yourself, addressing a range of concerns. Many seek support for navigating the intricate landscape of emotions associated with depression, anxiety, trauma, bipolar disorder, or grief and loss.
