"I practice culturally competent treatment and diagnosis and place great emphasis on the role of individual factors, which impact a persons difficulties and coping styles."

"Central to my practice is the knowledge that each of us is unique and finds a unique pathway to a sense of wellbeing and meaning in life. Finding this path may feel impossible when we are in the midst of a painful and seemingly unsolvable struggle, for at such times we often feel broken or defective and our lives feel consumed by our troubles. However such struggles are often only the starting points of a journey to a new and richer attitude towards life, and a call to growth."

"Are you willing to get to know yourself better? Are you willing to learn more about why you do the things you do, to be thoughtful about yourself? Are willing to change? Are you willing to accept that some changes come easier than others? If so, I will listen and assist you with this. Sometimes it is a matter of learning simple techniques and other times it is a matter of getting to know yourself better, gaining a new perspective, and making new choices by experimenting with new or other ideas and behaviors to see what works for you now."

"My goal is to allow client to openly address their levels of fear, depression and issues relating to their disorder. Many factors from past encounters result in high levels of depression and mental health conditions. My goal is to allow my client to address these fears and use my services as a three stage process to function independently with the least amount of medication and therapeutic interventions as possible. My overall goal is to address condition using alternative therapeutic problem solving interventions, while at the same time helping them to make changes based on their current condition.

"Counseling for Couples, Addictions, Careers, Adolescents and the Elderly in a safe and professional environment. I have a MSPCC from Neumann University with fifteen years field experience."

"I offer support and insight for dealing with life's struggles, assisting in turning challenges into growth opportunities. With nearly 20 years experience, I have expertise in treating individuals who struggle with addictions, eating disorders, relationship issues, and traumatic experiences. Whether you work individually, as a family, or in a one of my on-going groups, you have the support and encouragement you deserve. Therapy is about finding the support to help you bridge where you are now and the ability to take the steps you need to become the person you want to become."

"As a psychotherapist, my role is to create a safe environment where you can feel secure and supported to explore and be inquisitive about yourself. If you feel changes are needed in your life; if you are feeling depressed, fearful, ashamed, angry, stuck or confused, anxious or worried; or if you just can't stop self-defeating behaviors, you can benefit from therapy."

"I strongly believe in the transformative power of psychotherapy. As a Gestalt therapist, I'm committed to helping my clients reconnect with their true nature, live authentically and experience deep connection to self and others. I'm receptive to working on a sliding scale based on financial need."

"I believe in the Talking Cure. Life can be fraught with disappointments, losses, stressors and challenges that feel overwhelming and discouraging. Finding words to describe thoughts, feelings, past and present experiences, in presence of a compassionate and non-judgmental other, affords profound and lasting relief from the emotional discomfort that interferes with the ability to live the life one desires. Undigested emotional pain from the past can interfere with ones ability to live a full and satisfying life in the present. Identifying those emotions whose roots are in the past, frees us to live more fully in the here and now."

"I approach psychotherapy holistically and consider the mind, body, and spirit in treatment. I use an eclectic, individualized, person-centered approach in sessions and a Psychodynamic theoretical orientation. I work collaboratively with clients and prioritize forming a safe, trusting alliance as a foundation to work together in healing, growth and achieving their desired change. I have over 17 years of experience helping adult and adolescent clients understand and overcome traumatic events, depression, anxiety and how those issues affect relationships and/or create unhealthy relationship patterns."

"Every conversation makes a difference. The differences may be subtle or they can be life-changing. I work in a direct and warm manner, creating an environment that is dynamic and safe. The therapeutic relationship is a very important one and can provide the basis for navigating through difficult life transitions, improving communication skills, healing from a loss, or exploring possibilities for enhancing one's life."

"Are you fighting, sulking, avoiding each other? Are you having disagreements about sex, money, housework, having children, raising children, moving, changing jobs? Are you feeling lonely, unloved, rejected, put down, bullied, or henpecked? Are you bored? Are you under pressure from family, health, work, or financial issues? With your Partner or Alone, you'll Learn How to: ? Let go of conflict, open up, and live fully in the present ? Use mindfulness to increase intimacy, connection, and understanding ? Resolve painful conflicts and reconcile long-standing differences ? Act on your values to build a rich and meaningful relationship"

"My approach is integrative and contextual with a basic belief in the value of connection and the power of possibility. I provide psychotherapy, clinical supervision, and consultation with specialties in trauma-focused treatments, such as EMDR and clinical hypnosis, in addition to couples and group therapy. I recognize that we are heavily shaped by our relationships, family experiences, and our social location in the world with regard to race, culture, class, gender identity, sexual orientation, religion. I am also a Clinical Supervisor at the Therapy Center of Philadelphia (FKA Women's Therapy Center) and teach courses related to Group Therapy at PCOM and Drexel."

"I believe people seek help from when they get "stuck" in some aspect of their lives. Through my 25 plus years of practice I work to help others make changes, choices, solve problems, and to grow in order to get "unstuck" and progress. I take an active, interactive, and supportive approach to therapy and use a variety of approaches as needed, sometimes working with the past and always with applications to the present."

""Every Conversation Matters." Counselors facilitate healing through a process of genuine dialogue with their clients. As a culturally diverse and culturally sensitive therapist/counselor, I am guided by three critical principles: awareness, positive regard and empathy. It is also important for me to show sincere respect and interest in the client/s reason for being at therapy, be friendly, show compassion and understanding, acceptance and remain calm during all situations. I work from a non-judgmental approach, creating an atmosphere of safety and trust."

"I am a Clinical Mental Health therapist with certifications in Addiction and Family Therapy. I have over 30 years experience helping individuals and families to become drug-free, and helping to empower individuals, couples and families in creating a healthy, loving, prosperous environment. My style is to explore their total health issues and challenges. My method is to develop a plan to assist/coach clients to grow, step-by-step, to overcome their life challenges. I have studied Clinical Counseling, Family, Addiction and Behavior Modification Therapies for many years. I have also studied Family Therapy Post-Graduate for 2 years."

"Hello. Most people agree that despite the blessings of life, life can be overwhelming and complex. Sometimes intervention for significant distress is needed, other times people don't have a clinical diagnosis but need someone to talk to and get help working through challenges. I'm passionate about equipping and empowering people to think and live well. I work with individuals, couples, and families who want to improve their mood, end negative thinking/behaviors, overcome a traumatic past, and experience healthy relationships. If you want to live better, I would love work with you to help you achieve your goals."
