Therapists in Philadelphia, PA

My hope is that therapy can provide you a place to improve emotional distress, heal from past wounds, and increase fulfillment in your life. I have been working with people who have experienced trauma in all periods of their life. I've also worked in a large university counseling center for 7 years and have unique understanding on how that transition impacts mental health.

I work with people who suffer deeply in their lives and relationships, and specialize in healing the wounds and scars caused by the difficulties of life. No matter how profound the pain, you can be healed and restored to a healthy and happy existence. My therapy is based on the newest neuroscientific insights in the field of personal change. Talking, and the relationship that develops through this very human way of interacting, creates a healing environment where you can regain your true self, and become what you always wanted to be. I am a guide to discovering the real you.

Welcome! Congratulations on taking the first step on this adventure. We know finding the right therapist can be hard, stressful and a grueling process. For many clients this is the first time they have asked for help. At Key Therapy & Wellness we believe everyone deserves to unlock their full selves, feel empowered to make choices, and be supported through the journey towards change. We provide therapy that is compassionate, collaborative, and liberating. As a team we believe in celebrating and affirming the parts of clients that make them unique.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who believes that any and everyone can benefit from therapy. I believe that reaching out for help is a sign of great strength. I create a safe space in which clients feel comfortable opening up by being authentic, humorous, and also direct. I challenge clients by asking the tough questions while still being compassionate to their needs. Therapy is a collaborative effort in which I provide support to help clients tackle life's obstacles. I view problems in a systemic manner and view the core of most issues as relational.

As a therapist, I start from a space of curiosity for exploration and affirmation without judgement. I view therapy as a tool to support your growth, healing and self-awareness, founded on a unique relationship with each person I see in therapy. Many people I work with have experienced traumatic events and oppression from systems that target certain people for exclusion and violence. Despite the obstacles that can prevent us from experiencing connection, I believe that every person is worthy of love and community.

Recognizing difficulties in your life is one of the first steps towards growth and change but understanding why the difficulty is occurring in the first place brings your awareness and level of control to a whole other level. I want to learn about who you are, who you want to be, and what your world is like. Nobody knows you better than you, and I aim to cultivate a space between us where you feel supported, empowered, and safe to dive into conversations about anything and everything. I believe that every person is worthy of taking up space and time.

Living with anxiety and depression can be overwhelming. It may feel like fear is taking over your life and keeping you from some of the things you enjoy and value most. I prioritize creating a safe environment and trusting therapeutic relationship with clients. Our work together will emphasize your values, strengths, and goals to develop a collaborative plan to re-engage with life. I specialize in working with clients with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and the full spectrum of anxiety disorders, including BFRB's (trichotillomania/skin picking). I am trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).

Hi there, I'm Katrina. I am a licensed professional counselor and I want to work with you to decrease symptoms of anxiety, depression, and other mental health difficulties by using evidence-based treatment. Together, we can determine what works best for you to get you back to balance.

My clients come to me because they want to deepen and strengthen their relationships - not just with each other, but with themselves. They want to understand the family and societal systems that shaped them into who they are today, and to heal old wounds and trauma so that they can move forward from a place of strength, healing, and connection. Many of my clients exist at the intersection of multiple marginalized identities, and have struggled to find a therapist who will understand and not further stigmatize their identities, and who is committed to unlearning systems of oppression. I seek to provide a healing space for them.

We all have points in our lives when outside support helps us move through difficult times, grief, stuckness, and transitions. I will commit to your healing and help you understand your family history and relationships better. Together we connect with your core self and strengths to support the life you really want to live. I am a white, cis-gender queer therapist. I believe our identities and social locations matter in the therapy relationship (race, class, ability, culture, etc.) and in your healing. I believe we all need to heal from white supremacy and support this in our work.

I believe past negative experiences can have a lasting impact on the present in ways that are sometimes hard to make sense of, such as negative relationship patterns, feeling stuck or overwhelmed, anger, shame, confusion, intimacy issues, concerns connected to gender identity and sexuality, or just doing things in life that aren’t working but you don’t understand why. My work helps people gain insight into how the past may be impacting the present, and foster the strength to express and stay true to their own needs and desires.

I am a Licensed Social Worker in Pennsylvania with three decades of experience working with diverse individuals, groups and communities. My varied professional and life experiences inform my work as a multifaceted and versatile therapist. My therapeutic approach is also rooted in my values which include a belief in the inherent worth and dignity of each individual. My goal is to approach the therapeutic journey with humility, curiosity, and collaboration.

Developing a relationship with a compassionate, skilled therapist who can help you be present with current life stressors or past traumas, can be an important part of healing. In my practice I work with adults and adolescents with a variety of issues but specialize in issues related to sexual trauma (childhood or adult), childhood emotional/physical abuse, domestic violence, lack of parental attunement, and growing up in a home where alcohol and drugs were abused. I also work with couples who are experiencing challenges in communication, connection and how past trauma effects this. I provide clinical supervision to therapists.
