Therapists in Devon, PA

Hi, I'm Amy - a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Autism Spectrum Disorder Clinical Specialist dedicated to helping children and teens identify and build upon strengths to overcome challenges. I have 10 years of experience working directly with children in individual and group settings. I rely heavily on CBT, Motivational Interviewing and DBT Principles to assist clients with identifying changes they want to make in their lives. I believe firmly that the best way to help teens and children is to build a strong rapport and assist them in building confidence and enhance their skills.

I strive to help people achieve their own goals through an individualized treatment plan that allows the client to fully recognize their own strength and potential, while also developing new perspectives that may help them grow. When appropriate, I find it especially rewarding to assist families in working together to resolve their loved one's challenges and promote long lasting change, well after my services are discontinued. I provide a unique approach to therapy for each client that is in alignment with their current state of motivation. I aim not to be pushy, meet the client where they are, and guide them at their own pace.

Are you overwhelmed, trying to orchestrate family, job and more? You are the center of many people's world. Who is supporting you? Do you or someone in your family suffer from disorganization, a frantic pace, no time to sit down and breathe? You have come to the right place. As the center of the hub, you know who needs what. Child with special needs? Let's talk, and I'll help you sort it out. Together we can lift some of that weight from your shoulders.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor, Certified Gestalt and trained EMDR therapist, I have worked with adult clients who are struggling with life including trauma, PTSD, addiction, alcoholism, anxiety, depression, relationship and family issues. I utilize groups as well as individual therapy sessions for care for addiction, alcoholism, trauma and mental health issues. My clients typically gain peace of mind by calming their unsettling thoughts, memories, and experiences which can often be overwhelming and paralyzing. This approach provides relief and peace of mind which assist in dealing with the stress and anxiety of everyday life.

Adversity is a shared human experience. Sometimes even with your greatest efforts and supports, it feels that no matter what you do, you cannot seem to pass this roadblock in life. As a Licensed Psychologist, I help children, teens, and adults move past this impasse. My aim is to help you develop skills and strategies that you can carry with you throughout your journey. Whether you’re seeking help for you or your child, know that change is possible. While we do not get to choose our problems, we can choose how to respond to them.

Have you been feeling self-critical, anxious, unmotivated or just not like yourself?

Everyone possesses innate abilities and strengths that shape personal growth. Taking the first step to heal is courageous - striving for balance through self-discovery is the ultimate act of self-compassion. The heart of my practice is centered on how our experiences shape our brain, body and stress responses – how these emotional templates impact how we learn to cope with difficult emotions and their effect on our capacity to connect and realize our potential. I am passionate about helping adults, couples and adolescents develop skills that empower them to overcome obstacles, navigate life transitions and live a fulfilling life.

I have devoted my life's work to Bereavement Counseling and Personal Awareness. Each person's grief is unique. Everyone has the ability to heal by coming to understand their own style of coping and learning to integrate loss into their changed lives. I encourage clients to "teach me" about their losses, and in so doing they come to understand the meaning within their own experience. I help clients to understand what are considered to be the "normal" parameters of grief and loss. I have added Functional Medicine Health Coaching in my practice to further support my clients through any emotional experience they may be having.

Life difficulties can propel us forward or they can leave us feeling stuck, anxious, angry and depressed. They can also take a toll on our interpersonal relationships. They can make us feel like our entire life is out of balance. I invite you to a safe environment where you can openly process difficult life experiences so that you can live a more fulfilling life with more meaningful relationships.

Past traumatic experiences get stored in our bodies and physical symptoms can manifest.
