Codependency Therapists in Cobbs Creek, Philadelphia, PA

When we see ourselves clearly, it's good for the people around us. Trying to live well and do right by others when we don't honestly know ourselves usually has unintended impacts. If you've been quick to help people, but reluctant to seek support for yourself, let's talk. I welcome people who are skeptical about therapy. It is very important to me to be affirming of all genders and expressions, and to be an active anti-racist ally.

My clients are high-performing people seeking therapy because they feel depressed, trapped, or anxious in ways that prevent them from enjoying the lifes they have built. Many feel disconnected from their sense of purpose or from loved ones and wish to reconnect in new and healthy ways. I can help you learn about yourself, improve your sense of well-being, and face obstacles that challenge you with increased skill, ease, and clarity. My practice is 100% teletherapy, which lends itself well to discretion, efficiency, and flexibility. My clients attend therapy between meetings, at work, and from the couch while their baby naps.

Have you been feeling discouraged because you repeat the same ADHD patterns and don’t know how to change? Do you feel embarrassed when you measure time wrong and miss deadlines, procrastinate, or falter on commitments to friends and family? You are NOT alone. I’ve been there myself and I know how these patterns can leave you feeling ashamed, self-critical, or hopeless. Having an ADHD brain in a capitalist society is hard, and you need specialized support. Through a creative combination of education, support and healing, you can learn to befriend instead of battle yourself.

Healing from trauma, setting healthy boundaries, and caring for yourself in an unjust world are transformative, radical journeys, and I'm here to help guide you through them. I specialize in providing care based in a trauma-informed, liberation framework. I strive to create a space for all clients to feel safe, seen, and supported. I believe therapy is political and I don’t shy away from the impact that our government’s history, its policies, and practices have on our mental health. Together, we'll explore the intersections of your experiences and identities as we work to reach your goals.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist with the Center for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness (www.cbtmindful.com). I have over two decades of experience providing a variety of research-based treatments at all levels of care with clients from all age groups and backgrounds. The primary focus of my work has been treating adults and adolescents with anxiety and mood disorders, PTSD, OCD, substance use disorders, and medical conditions. I provide evidence-based therapies including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Gottman Method couples therapy, among others.

*Offering Virtual Session at this Time* In Somatic sessions we work holistically by becoming aware of thoughts, feelings and sensations as integrated aspects of your process of being alive. Depending on the session and client, we may talk, move, explore self-touch and new ways of breathing, and engage in creative processes like drawing, all in the service of partnering with your own body's wisdom for healing and learning. As deepen into your own experience of embodiment and self authority, life begins to unfold according to your needs and visions.

I am a Syrian, Queer, & Genderfluid clinician. As an immigrant kid raised in queer subcultures in the Pacific Northwest, my therapy practice is inspired by writers, creators, and organizers who complicate the narratives of our human existence. I believe the personal is deeply political and therapy is a tool to help us identify how our bodies, relationships, and internal beliefs have been impacted by systems of power and oppression. I utilize celebration, gentleness, and reflection alongside various modalities to inform my practice in session for a customized approach with each person who enters into a therapy relationship with me.

In each of my therapy sessions, I seek to give the right support for clients to talk about the things that really matter. I listen carefully and engage deeply so I can provide the feedback and reflection you need to find your path forward with more clarity and confidence. I use my knowledge and experience to help you connect the dots and realize you are not alone. I believe change comes in small steps and I'm here to support you and to celebrate every victory.

In my work, I seek to make a connection that will cultivate a safe, judgement-free space to work through challenging issues & promote self-discovery. My stance in life and in my practice is anti-racist, sex positive, LGBTQ+ competent and gender affirming. I recognize my privilege as a cis-gender, white, male professional and strive to position myself as an equal collaborator in the processes of growth and change within my clients. Coming from an entertainment industry background, I have worked extensively with artists, musicians, actors and entrepreneurs and understand the creative process,

Therapy offers an opportunity for cultivating safety, security, and steadiness within ourselves and in our relationships. Through a warm and patient presence, gentle curiosity, and deep compassion, I hope to offer you a sturdy container within which you can practice vulnerability and explore a full range of feelings. I hold an awareness that our pain, grief, anger, joy, and pleasure live in our bodies, and I believe paying attention to what happens in our bodies can increase our insight and agency. Integrating somatic and mindfulness practices into our work together supports this connection between body and mind.

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 psychologist, 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. Through collaboration, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

I work with people to help them explore, understand, and heal from the ways life has left its imprints upon them— be that from trauma, oppression, or simply the complexity of our messy and beautiful interconnectedness with each other. My approach is creative, humorous and relational. It is rooted in values of anti-oppression, abolitionism, and harm reduction.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York state and a Licensed Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania. I provide psychotherapy services to residents of New York and Pennsylvania via video sessions. Services that are offered include individual, as well as family therapy sessions. I am also a member of the American Counseling Association. I have been working in the counseling field for over 17 years.

I am a psychotherapist and music therapist. I enjoy working with kids, teens, and adults of all ages. I approach therapy from an anti-oppressive and systems perspective, meaning that my primary lens seeks to understand systemic barriers and discriminatory cultural contexts that impact the well-being of those I work with. I am well positioned to work with folks who are LGBTQIA+ and/or inhabit non-traditional family/relationship structures. I have many years of experience working with folks who are grieving, chronically/terminally ill, autistic, depressed, anxious, and folks who have experienced trauma.

What inspires you? What scares you?  What do you most often shout from the rooftops?  What do you sometimes try to avoid thinking or feeling? I provide supportive and challenging psychotherapy for clients interested in identifying their complex narratives.  We will search for the patterns and themes that are creating barriers to healing and will locate those that enhance your ability to live authentically.  My social worker lens leads me to work with you to name and examine the societal systems most impacting you.

My strengths as a clinician are working with young adults, young couples, and women who have survived traumatic events, including ongoing interpersonal trauma, and who want support to process these experiences in order to show up more fully for their lives in the present. I also really enjoy supporting individuals and couples as they are making transitions in their lives and in their relationships, growing their family, navigating pregnancy and postpartum stages, striving to better integrate their careers and family, and deepening intimacy and connection with each other.

Are you looking to know yourself on a deeper level? To improve your self-esteem, relationships, or emotion regulation? To heal from trauma or loss? To move away from avoidance, people pleasing, or habits that hold you back? Whether you seek to work on a specific goal or to focus more generally on self-exploration and growth, I am happy you are considering working with me. I am confident that we all possess a deep capacity for healing, resiliency, and connection. I strive to continually learn from and integrate multi-faceted modalities and theories of counseling to provide therapy that aligns with your individual needs and goals.
