Trauma Focused Therapists in Exton, PA

Hello! My name is Kylie and I am a PA Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I'm passionate about helping adolescents and their families learn how to regulate emotions, incorporate daily mindfulness, and challenge thoughts that keep them stuck. I also teach how to decrease the connection between feeling and doing, and how to maintain healthy relationships . The majority or my practice focuses on self-harm behavior, suicidal ideation, intense emotions, and impulsive behaviors. My approach is to utilize DBT throughout treatment while also incorporating CBT and trauma-focused care.

My primary focus is clients with intense levels of depression, anxiety, and mood issues. I run an intensive outpatient group for individuals who were recently inpatient for suicidal thoughts or attempts, or people struggling and trying to improve their life before things become so bad that they need to go to a hospital. I also see clients individually for trauma therapy. I am a certified traumatic brain injury therapist, and have extensive experience working with individuals suffering from post-concussive issues.

Hello! My name is Maria and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Board Certified Behavior Analyst with over 20 years of experience. I believe in a collaborative approach while also providing direction as needed.

If you’re a parent of an adolescent struggling with mental health, know that you don’t have to manage these struggles alone. Feeling helpless about not knowing another way to deal with your child’s presenting problems is difficult. But I'm here to tell you that there is no “wrong” way to parent your child with mental health challenges. I can help both you and your beloved adolescent connect, build resiliency, and manage developmental challenges. We’ll work on communication and improving interactions between you and your child, and I will support you in making informed decisions about your adolescent’s mental health.

You have been told you are too sensitive and were constantly invalidated for how you feel. People in your life have made you feel unworthy or less than your value. You're a feeler and feeler’s care, deeply. Your emotions have felt too overwhelming to acknowledge, so you try to ignore them, but they spill over into your daily life. You become triggered and have difficulty managing those emotions when they come to the surface. If you are feeling the ripple effects of past trauma or experience intense emotions such as shame, sadness, low self-esteem, anger, or anxiety, I know how to help!

A safe space to be truly heard, seen and understood. Whether you are grieving a loss, feel overwhelmed, lost, or isolated, therapy is a place to talk, reflect, cry, and sometimes even laugh. It is a form of caring for yourself. A way to gain support. To pause. To reset. To take a breath.

I am a licensed therapist who sees individuals with mental health and/or substance use issues. When I began studying social work its philosophy resonated deeply with me as strengths-based with dignity for all. Social justice issues have recently been occupying a more prominent (long overdue) role in many conversations; I support the dismantling of systems of oppression in its many forms, and am supportive to clients if they choose to engage with these topics, whether or not they wish to bring them to the therapy space.
