Codependency Therapists in Hershey, PA

My areas of specialization include working with adolescents and adults with anxiety, depression, trauma, co-occurring disorders, addiction and personality disorders. I'm trained in E.M.D.R. which is the most researched treatment for trauma and P.T.S.D. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) along with elements from other modalities of therapy to provide the best treatment approach for each individual client. Also, I incorporate natural and holistic interventions for those seeking an integrative approach.

With over 30 years of clinical practice, extensive continuing education, and an emphasis on what works rather than on what’s wrong, I tailor my approach to the specific needs of each individual, couple, family, and group for whom I provide service. Using proven methods, I am able to offer, among others, supportive, interactional, brief problem-solving, cognitive-behavioral, including trauma focused cognitive-behavioral, and relational psychotherapies. Common themes among my clients are concerns related to relationship difficulties, bereavement, mood disorders including depression, anxiety, childhood behavioral problems, eating disorders, compulsive and additive behaviors, and difficulties related to specific life circumstances.

Stress can be psychologically toxic, even for helpers. Loss, trauma, injury/Illness anger, shame & fatigue can lead to anxiety and depression as well as relationship and behavior problems. Therapeutic relationships improve health by assisting with psychological detoxification and with the establishment of healthy emotional, interpersonal/social, mental, and physical habits to help inoculate against these "toxins." Sometimes natural healthy defenses against toxic stress break down and fail to protect us against painful or maladaptive feelings, thoughts, and beliefs about ourselves, others, and the world around us.

Are you living with the painful consequences of bad decisions and want more joy, ease, and fulfillment? Do you want to stop fighting and start cooperating, connecting, and communicating in your relationships? Maybe you feel frozen, on an emotional rollercoaster, or both depending on the day. Do you want to experience your emotions as supporting your richer more satisfying life? Are you feeling lonely and isolated, like no one gets you or even wants to? Would you like more mutually loving relationships where you are seen, heard, and treated with respect? Are you looking for an LGBTQ ally?

Relationships can be rich and rewarding as well as disappointing and painful. Perhaps you have repetitive arguments that go nowhere, or have reached an impasse, or your relationship has become distant and lacks intimacy. You may be experiencing a relationship crisis involving infidelity or other forms of betrayal. Creating a satisfying relationship that can stand the test of time requires skill, attention, and effort. I help couples develop the necessary relational skills to communicate and problem-solve more effectively, understand each other better, manage reactivity, navigate difficult challenges, and find a path forward.

Having worked in the field of Alcoholism and Chemical Dependency and treatment for over 35 years, I lived through the disease of addiction myself. Today, helping individuals and families from all walks of life to be able to receive the help they need I believe that experiencing the horrors of the illness first hand far better prepared me to help those in need than the years of professional training that have followed. Today, fortunate to have lived the past 40 + years in my own recovery, I remain forever grateful to those who cared enough to help me at a time when I could not help myself.

You who are highly sensitive and feel more deeply, welcome! You'll explore more deeply with me than in traditional talk therapy.
