Teletherapy for Doylestown, PA

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor utilizing a highly personalized approach supporting teens, adults, seniors & couples through change & life transitions. Incorporating complimentary therapies from a strengths & solution based approach, I assist clients in processing emotions, gaining strength & coping skills. I assist individuals dedicated to overall health & well-being to feel balanced, calm, empowered, connected and motivated to achieve change. I offer support to clients navigating through grief & loss, relationship issues, anxiety, recovery & mental health diagnosis traditionally & not traditionally covered by insurance.

Have you ever felt, "Why is this happening to me, I don't know who I am anymore!" Constant worrying, low mood, relational challenges, and life transitions can wear you down. Simultaneously, navigating multiple cultural contexts can challenge your values and world views, often creating dissonance about who you are. Within the mindful space of therapy, I can help you examine the nature of your worries, the frequent blues, your existing thinking style, responses to people and the world around you. Through collaboration, I can offer alternative ways of thinking and responding to challenges, and help develop an effective coping toolkit.

I help adult women and men who are grieving and feeling stuck, whether the loss comes from the death of a loved one (including beloved pets) or a living loss associated with dementia, addiction, chronic illness, divorce, infertility, or life transitions. I partner with you to help you explore how you are feeling, find new ways to cope and make a plan for moving forward as you are ready. There is no right way to grieve and no predictable timeline. It is important to me that during our time together, you feel supported, safe, and accepted. Through teletherapy or in-person appointments I can guide you through your difficult time.

Sadness, anger and anxiety are universal experiences; it's when we can't move through them that they begin to define our lives. Getting stuck in a cycle of negative thought and feeling keeps us from reaching our potential. It doesn’t have to feel "strange" sitting down and talking to someone about your life, your feelings and your problems. This Must Be The Place (A Life Counseling Experience) is a private therapy practice, built in the spirit of offering a casual, comfortable, non-clinical setting for people to develop a resource in gaining perspective on their lives, moods and relationships.

Update 3/2023: Accepting new clients, both in-person and virtual. Are you experiencing relationship stress, life transitions or feeling overwhelmed by things outside of your control? Many of my clients come to me looking for a way to free themselves from feelings of anxiety or depression that interfere with their relationships and ability to manage stress. We work together to build healthy coping skills and an increased sense of security and self-esteem. I also enjoy working with children and their parents to address emotional and behavioral concerns that many families experience.

You’ve spent a lot of your life just “getting through it”. Despite a lot of difficulties in your childhood, and even your early adult life, you’ve managed to bulldoze through it all and stay on track as much as you could. But now that you’re through it (at least mostly), your past seems to be catching up to you. Your relationships with significant others, friends, family and even yourself seem to be challenging. You’re realizing now that maybe “just getting through it” wasn’t enough, and it is time to get some support for yourself, whether you really want to or not. Slowing down is really difficult, but it's time.

Do you desire to awaken to your deepest passion, to your life purpose, to your potential? Are you ready to craft a life and relationship of your own creative and bold design? Are you in the midst of a life transition desiring to more fully align with your core values and make space for more peace, passion and pleasure? Are you ready to up-level and transform your relationships and more masterfully connect, communicate and cohabitate? I'd be honored to partner with you and support you in creating a life that is in full alignment with your deepest desires, a life infused with joy and abundance, a life that you absolutely love.

If you find discord between different parts of yourself and between you and people or situations in your life, consider embarking on this journey to personal freedom and self-discovery. This work is about finding your own inner balance and resolution and feeling free to express your authenticity. I work with mood disorders, anxiety, sleep, stress, family and relationship conflicts, compulsions and addictions. I use my own mix of many theoretical and practice techniques in the service of your resolution, integration and wholeness, with special expertise in relationship counseling, spirituality and gender issues.

Maybe conflict with your spouse never seems to get resolved, or your secret sexual behavior isn't stopping as easily as you thought it would. If you're feeling confused and hopeless, I can help you get clear about who you were meant to be and to find peace. I want to help you find freedom and discard old ways of living. I work with people of all backgrounds but incorporate Christian principles and practices for those who share that worldview. Reach out today and let's develop a plan together based on your unique story and needs.

According to the National Center for PTSD, 6 out of every 10 men and 5 out of every 10 women will experience at least one trauma in their lives. Traumatic experiences can leave individuals feelings scared, overwhelmed and ashamed. Many do not seek help. We as individuals are hard wired to bounce back from bad stuff in our path. Recovery from the past is possible.

{"Authenticity is the daily practice of letting go of who we think we are supposed to be and embracing who we are." - B. Brown} Sometimes finding compassion for oneself as well as others seems an insurmountable achievement. When life feels overwhelming and out of our control, people tend to shutdown, become numb until an experience brings everything to the surface and we overreact. We guilt ourselves and/or blame others and can get stuck in this cycle which keeps us separate from believing we can safely experience our own emotions and leaves us unable to tolerate the emotions of others.
