Please visit my website www.drbarbetta.com for additional information. I have a relaxing and comfortable Bucks County location in Langhorne. My empathy skills and commitment to client care create a safe environment for clients to be heard and to be understood in a confidential setting. I also offer tele-therapy which many clients love because they can speak from the comfort of their own homes.

I work best with people who have difficulty connecting how their current role relates to a personal problem. If you often respond to stressful situations in similar ways with little resolve and are left feeling misunderstood (anxious) and/or alone (depressed), this is an example of learned behaviors that becomes more casual for people over time. I one-on-one coach to promote change and help develop realistic tools that assist you in-the-moment as a life event unfolds. Using a straightforward approach I can improve your insight, discourage old habits and improve your personal control.

Thriving in families today is truly challenging, particularly in today's "Covid World." Family stress also tends to intensify during those sensitive periods of transition, especially where children are affected. My practice specializes in assisting parents navigate the complexities of divorce, co-parenting, re-marriage, and the creation of new stepfamilies. I also help families heal from estrangement, whether it is from a sibling or parent. While working with recently-divorced parents, I feel it is important to take a child-centered focus, where children are often caught in the middle of these adult battlegrounds.

My ideal client wants something better, has no idea what "better" is or looks like, and has no idea where to start. They are still determining if they are ready to start or commit to that change. What they need is a person and a space to figure it out. Deep down, they know where they are right now can be better, whether in relationships, emotions, daily habits, major life goals, or anything in-between. But, most importantly, they want a space where they can process and grow from that place and build a sustainable life.

Do you want to make a change? Do you want to have a different life than the one you have now? It starts with you and I can help you get there. I am a licensed therapist and a certified coach. My strengths are working with clients to get through relationship issues. Including but not limited to: break-ups, divorce, separation, complex situations and co-parenting. Healing & growth are at the forefront of our time together as we focus on the whole person. I believe we are all trying to fill 3 buckets in life: health, wealth & relationships. Let's fill them all up!

Ready for some positive change? You deserve to be seen, heard, respected and empowered in a safe, affirming space. It's my honor and passion to support clients in finding lasting healing, speaking their truth, knowing their strengths, letting go of whatever doesn't serve them, and helping them work toward their goals and maximum potential. My ideal clients are ready to thrive and try new approaches to life and relationships. We will work collaboratively from a place of acceptance, non-judgement, kindness, and compassion with sprinkles of humor and creativity guiding the way.

My ideal client would be aware that they need help. They are also prepared and open to doing the necessary work to address their issue. They understand that therapy is a process, not something they can complete overnight. They know that their previous methods have failed and are willing to try again with me.

My ideal client would present solution-focused with a desire to gain insight and understanding of presenting symptomatically and how those symptoms manifested. Their issues, regardless of being situational or organic, should be addressed directly with kindness and acceptance without judgement. The need should be to not only identify and address their current symptoms but also to work towards a more profound understanding of why such symptoms are present and how to create an opportunity for change. The goal should support a progressive change to improve quality of life.

I am a Licensed Social Worker with a passion for decreasing the stigma surrounding mental health and promoting the health and well being of my clients.

I received a Bachelor of Science Degree in Social Work with a Minor in Behavioral Neuroscience from Stockton, and then moved on to attend graduate school in Philadelphia. I received my Master of Social Work Degree with a clinical concentration from the University of Pennsylvania’s School of Social Policy and Practice in May of 2020.

Life is a journey that can be both deeply beautiful and profoundly challenging. Along the way, we all go through rough patches. Anxiety, despair and self-doubt can leave us feeling lost and afraid. Though these experiences may frighten us, they also offer us opportunities for healing and growth if we have the courage to listen to them and learn from them. I am a warm and caring psychotherapist who will provide an atmosphere of safety, compassion, and non-judgmental support as you engage in this process.

Whether you're experiencing a recent difficulty or a long-standing challenge, therapy is a terrific opportunity for healing and self-growth in a safe, non-judgmental and supportive environment. Emphasizing warm and caring relationships with my clients, I help them to address certain behaviors, beliefs, attitudes and emotions. As they continue to gain insight, we work together to establish healthier and more effective patterns of behaviors. I believe, when we attain insight we can feel increased freedom and optimism; we no longer feel "stuck" and hopeless in our pain.
