Therapists in Philadelphia, PA

Hi there and welcome! Reaching out for support can be really challenging, especially when feeling overwhelmed and vulnerable. I’m so glad you are taking this courageous and important step in caring for yourself. My name is Danielle and my priority as a therapist is to provide clients with a safe and non-judgmental space to be seen and heard, exactly as they are. I take an empathetic, authentic, and inclusive approach to therapy and commit to respectfully and compassionately meeting you where you are in the healing process, while guiding you through growth.

Whether you're struggling with anxiety, issues around communication and relationships, self-esteem, and/or trauma, you deserve an individualized approach that accounts for your lifestyle, environment, and changing needs and capacities.

I view therapy like a road trip: some parts are fun, some are not, but in the end you get to where you need to go. You are the driver and have the control but we are on the journey together. I will be there, in the passenger seat, to help reroute if we get detoured... and try to help us avoid the potholes! It’s your hard work, though, that gets us to the destination. I have found that creating a genuine connection makes all the difference in where we can go together in treatment, so let’s get this trip started!

Therapy offers the space to process emotions and experiences, develop a relationship with yourself, and gain insight. It is my goal to create a space for you to explore these areas, and to develop a therapeutic alliance that instills hope and encourages confidence. With a background in recreation therapy, I utilize a psychodynamic approach rooted in attachment theory, and primarily use schema therapy and behavioral interventions.

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.

Hi, I'm Cory! Do you feel unmotivated, uninspired, and stuck in the routine of life or your relationship? Are you searching for who you are at your core and learning to live a life aligned with that? Are you struggling with anxiety, burnout, depression, or stress, which gets in the way of you moving forward? I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 10 years of experience working with families, individuals, and couples. My belief is that we all have struggles throughout our lives, and with the right support, we all have the strength within us to overcome these obstacles.

I believe in a strength-based, holistic, and pragmatic approach to change that focuses on each client's unique needs; and I view life's challenges as opportunities to further growth and build a more meaningful life. In active collaboration with a client, my technique balances insight, exploration, and coping-skills development that helps clients affect real change in the present. I've trained and worked with a diverse range of people of all ages and issues including depression, anxiety, substance use, co-occurring mental health, trauma, PTSD, relationship difficulties, and life transitions (e.g., divorce, career changes, menopause).

Deciding to start therapy takes a huge leap of faith and I have tremendous respect for anyone willing to brave it. I'm always inspired by my clients. For the past 10 years, it has been my privilege to serve people in a wide range of settings and listen to the stories of their lives. I am repeatedly stunned by how little acknowledgment people in pain give themselves. Most of them don’t look like they’re suffering at all to the outside world. But that’s not how they feel inside.

I believe that when we're honest about the causes of suffering, space opens up to be creative in making our lives closer to something we really want. I see myself as your partner in rigorously confronting what is true in your life, and finding space to make real change. It is very important to me to be affirming of all genders and expressions, and to be an active anti-racist ally.

Hello and welcome to my bio. A little bit about me, I have a Master's Degree Couple and Family Therapy and have been in the field for eight years. I have worked with a variety of clients with a wide range of concerns. Some concerns include but are not limited to: depression, anxiety, substance use disorders, trauma, grief, life transitions, ADHD, relationship issues, parenting, self-esteem, and women’s issues. As a standard practice, I approach the therapeutic relationship with an acute sensitivity and respect for multi/cross-cultural factors and influence.

Today you are one step closer to a new you where you feel empowered and on a positive path to growth and well-being. As a solution-focused therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

The goal of therapy is to develop a connected relationship with an empathic professional that helps alleviate any issues that the client wants to work on. A client should expect a respectful and creative environment in which they can safely explore their needs and wants. Some people believe that they are not worthy of help or are ashamed of what seeking help means about themselves. Therapy is there for anyone who wants to use it, from people who just need a boost through a troubled time to people seeking long term work examining patterns and habits that interfere with their hope and happiness.

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.

Do you have a teen who is struggling with their mental health? Are you in your early 20's and having difficulty coping with the complexities of life? Therapy is an amazingly powerful tool to create tangible change in young person's life, but it is important to find a relatable therapist who doesn't treat 13-25 year olds with the same frames and modalities that are used for their parents. I am a licensed LCSW who has been working with young people in schools and in private practice for almost 20 years. My entire career is focused on helping young people and their families through life's biggest challenges.

During my post-doctorate fellowship year at Cedars Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, we had a serious and destructive earthquake. Medical staff and trainees throughout the hospital went into action with clothes and food for the stricken families. We helped with the all of the immediate needs that the crisis created for each person.
