Cancer Therapists in Newtown, PA
There's no such thing as a "bad" thought or feeling; only parts of you that need more curiosity and care. This belief guides all of my work, whether I'm sitting across from an anxious child, a teenager navigating independence, or an adult trying to figure out how to feel a little more steady in the chaos of life. I draw from clinical training and research, self-compassion practices, life experience, and humor to help you approach yourself with less judgment and more care. I believe that ideal therapy combines small lifestyle changes that create an "upward spiral" with deeper work that reveals the beliefs that keep you stuck.

My strengths lie in helping individuals identify those intrusive and often irrational thoughts that interfere with their ability to live a fulfilling life. Often this leads to anxiety and a feeling of being "stuck" and of not getting anywhere. We too often learn to live with the issues that "plague" us. I have found that most people simply want peace, love and happiness in their lives, with a bit of joy from time to time.

Hello! My name is Gregg and I help people through some of the tough times in their lives. I believe that we adjust to new experiences using the tools we already possess and a desire to thrive in new surroundings, but sometimes this striving to survive can cause us emotional and behavioral difficulties. I provide supportive guidance through these situations using tools from cognitive-behavioral therapy, narrative, and existential therapies, from the psychodynamic approach.

I love being a therapist because it allows me to form meaningful connections with people and to accompany them through complex, deeply personal chapters of their lives. I bring over 15 years of experience to my work and specialize in helping those who’ve experienced trauma and loss: whether the death of someone important, or the many subtler losses that still bring us so much suffering—the loss of a hoped-for future, the loss of our confidence in ourselves, the loss of trust, the loss of hope. In trauma and grief work, I focus on safety, pacing, and honoring losses that are often overlooked or minimized.

Cancer Therapists
How does cancer affect mental health?
A cancer diagnosis is a major life event that can significantly influence the mental health of any individual. Being diagnosed with cancer often introduces a sense of uncertainty about the future, which can cause clients to experience symptoms of anxiety, depression, and significant distress. Many cancer patients may also worry about the toll that their diagnosis may have on their family, their physical health, their job, and their financial situation. The compounding of such stressors can also decrease mental health in clients and may lead to additional symptoms that can influence mental health, such as sleeping difficulties or social withdrawal.
What is the best psychological therapy for cancer patients?
The best type of psychological therapy for cancer patients is highly dependent on the needs of the individual. The therapy type that a client benefits from may also depend on what stage of the cancer journey they are in. Recently diagnosed cancer patients, for instance, may benefit from therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which can help clients develop skills to manage the emotional distress that comes with a cancer diagnosis. Alternatively, cancer patients further along in their journey may benefit from therapies like Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) or other forms of mindfulness therapy to help manage symptoms or physical pain associated with treatment. Clients may also consider group therapy, which offers cancer patients an opportunity to receive support from other individuals dealing with a cancer diagnosis.
Are there any risks or drawbacks in going to therapy while dealing with cancer?
Although attending therapy while dealing with a cancer diagnosis can be helpful, one major concern for cancer patients can be the financial cost of seeking therapy. Many therapists are out-of-network, meaning they do not accept insurance, and thus clients are expected to pay the entirety of the session fee. Since many cancer patients may be out of work as a result of their diagnosis or cancer treatment regimen, the costs of therapy sessions can be substantial. Luckily, many cancer centers and local clinics may offer free or substantially reduced-cost counseling services to cancer patients and their families. In addition, cancer patients may be eligible for grants or other forms of funding from local agencies and nonprofits to seek therapy for their cancer diagnosis. Such opportunities can be very helpful for cancer patients, as they allow clients to obtain the benefits of therapy without the financial strain.
How long does cancer therapy typically last?
The length of cancer therapy depends on the needs of each client. In some cases, cancer patients may only require therapeutic support during the period following their initial diagnosis—to help manage the uncertainty and shock of a cancer diagnosis. In other cases, clients may choose to receive therapy throughout their treatment, and even following, their cancer journey. Pursuing therapy for a longer period of time can help clients develop a deeper relationship with their therapist and provide opportunity to process the challenges presented by cancer treatment, such as physical pain, and challenges associated with cancer survivorship, such as ongoing identity concerns, physical limitations, or relationship challenges.
