Therapists in Bryn Mawr, PA

I am a licensed clinical psychologist who specializes in providing evidence-based treatment for PTSD and the full spectrum of anxiety disorders, including OCD, social anxiety, generalized anxiety, and phobias. I have also sought specialized training in perinatal mental health and I have a strong passion for treating individuals experiencing anxiety or adjustment difficulties during this time period. I primarily utilize a cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) approach, although also often incorporate principles from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).

Life often rains on our plans, and I want to help you find a raincoat and dance in the storm, "fearless." I want to offer you support in learning how to cope with traumatic life experiences, losses, depression, compulsions, and anxiety. As someone diagnosed with ADHD and an autoimmune disease, I understand what it is like to navigate the world differently and crave understanding from those around you. I believe in offering palpable interventions, a little bit of humor, and alternative perspectives that will eventually allow you to be your own therapist and thrive in various environments. I also believe in you.

When life's challenges feel overwhelming, burdensome, confusing, uncertain, hopeless, or difficult to imagine changed, it can make all the difference to find the right support to guide you or your loved one to a renewed sense of strength.

I am licensed psychologist with extensive specialized training in neuropsychology. I've evaluated 100s of patients with complex psychiatric and neurological difficulties. I believe the first step to overcoming one's difficulties is understanding the underlying causes. In order to understand my patients, I rely on thorough assessment of their presenting difficulties, medical history and personal experiences. I use this information to create personalized, comprehensive evaluations of emotional and cognitive functioning. This allows me to determine the causes of their difficulties and devise effective treatment recommendations.

Do you have trouble sleeping? Do you find yourself thinking about things you wish you could leave in the past? Are you struggling with anxiety, worry, or feeling disconnected? Are nightmares keeping you awake? My practice focuses on trauma recovery and sleep problems. Some of my clients deal with both of these issues, while some are only affected by one. But both have a major impact on all areas of life, including mood, relationships, school/work, and physical health. Many of my clients feel helpless because other treatments did not work. I practice evidence-based therapy that can help even if other treatments have failed.

I am a licensed clinical social worker committed to providing superior clinical care to adults who are looking for support in mental wellness. My primary goal is to help maintain a balanced lifestyle by allowing individuals to focus developing the best version of themselves in order to show up for the demands of everyday life.

If you are experiencing difficulty resolving the current challenges in your life, I am here to help. I am a licensed clinical social worker who has spent over a decade working with individuals of diverse backgrounds and experiences, treating issues of trauma, depression, anxiety and relationship conflict. As a social worker, I believe that seeing, hearing and serving those who are oppressed is crucial to addressing the injustices within our society. My practice with you will be respectful and non-judgmental as we all struggle at times, and it is critical to have a source of support with whom we feel safe and can be open.

I believe that therapy should be a partnership and strive to create a warm environment where trust can grow and people can thrive. I hope to help each of my clients identify what makes them their best selves and learn how to leverage those strengths. By finding ways to work with your unique brain instead of against it, we can create individualized strategies that are both practical and effective for you and your ADHD. As a person with ADHD myself, I also know that its effects often reach outside of productivity and organization into psychological and emotional wellbeing.

Experiencing trauma (little and big T traumas) seems to be a part of everyone's life at some point. In my 20 years experience, I see that trauma and chronic stress often lead to, or exacerbate, feelings of depression, anxiety or being "stuck." Being specialty-trained, open-minded and client-needs driven, at MTC, we are able to adeptly challenge clients while also re-building their hope and sense of worthiness so that they may feel good and safe while moving past their comfort zones. (NOTE: Please see the website for my staff's bios. Currently accepting insurances & self-pay clients for my staff.)

Life is not easy and I believe most people would benefit from someone impartial to help navigate that uneasiness. I use a holistic approach to help individuals, couples and families with depression, anxiety, PTSD, substance use, stress, ADHD and a myriad of other issues and conditions. The goal of my practice is to create a collaborative relationship where people can identify goals, reduce stress, and find peace. My practice is designed to assist people in all circumstances: whether you need to address something that happened years ago, a recent life event, or you just want guidance on living your best life.

Have you avoided dealing with past trauma and adverse experiences? Do you find yourself realizing that your past is causing you issues in the present? Is it still impacting your life in ways you wish to resolve? Are you ready to do something about it? Together we can examine past experiences and recurring patterns that show up in your life. Allowing us to understand and identify the origin of any current discomforts and challenges. In collaboration, we can then work through and process unresolved issues in order for you to move forward and live a healthier and more fulfilling life.
