Anthem Therapists in Elkins Park, PA

I am clinically trained therapist as well as an addiction specialist offering clients a diverse and progressive therapeutic experience. I have extensive experience with substance use disorders as well co-occurring mental health issues. My training has included working with adolescents, adults, families, and couples. I utilize the assessments to create and develop plans focusing on supportive and individualized therapy. I also provide assessments to help individuals navigate and walk into treatment facilities with no hassles. My goal is to make the process of treatment easier for everyone involved.

Many years ago I changed my life by pursuing a more fulfilling career. The concept that most inspired me was “Neuroplasticity”- The proven concept that we can change the way our mind works and in so doing experience greater well-being. Negative beliefs about ourselves are generally linked to negative things that we experienced in the past, or positive things that we needed to experience but unfortunately never did. By utilizing interventions that target "what happened" or "what needed to happen but didn't" we can increase of self-worth. Since thinking certain thoughts is habitual, we can learn to dismiss "unuseful thoughts".

(For a faster response this provider prefers to be contacted by email) I believe that everyone has within them the ability to overcome personal and psychological obstructions to develop their full potential. I see myself as a team member in the client's journey for growth and change.

Are your partner, parents or children driving you crazy? Our counselors can show you how to enjoy the best of your family while learning to let go of the parts that interfere with your happiness. If you struggle with anxiety, depression, or make the same self-defeating relationship mistakes repeatedly, we'd like to work with you to break these cycles and enjoy life. Are you a first responder or veteran? Talk therapy won't help. We provide evidence-based EMDR. You deserve a counselor with the training and experience to help resolve the problems that bring you to therapy, heal old wounds and deepen the bonds you already share.
