Therapists in Philadelphia, PA

Does any of this sound like you? You're a mom struggling with the challenges of being a parent. You feel frustrated and overwhelmed by all your responsibilities but then feel guilty for feeling this way. Or maybe you are struggling with trying to conceive. You feel so isolated from your friends and family, social media is an endless reminder of what you don't have. Maybe you are struggling in your relationship.. you became parents and now you feel so disconnected from your partner. You are not alone. I provide you with s safe space to express your challenges and with the tools you need to take your life back.

We are a group practice of over 70 therapists. At Equilibria, our goal is to help individuals achieve their personal potential and long term growth by compassionately and respectfully helping them live in balance. We utilize an integrative, strength based treatment model to address each individual's set of unique issues. Our belief is that treatment must be flexible and tailored to achieve symptom relief and increased self understanding.

People are so sick of holding their tongue, wearing costumes, and being inauthentic when navigating social relations. To me, therapy is a place to say the thing and acknowledge the parts of us that many won’t see or hear. The freedom that follows from that experience alone can make all the difference. My hope for our therapeutic relationship is to make space for all of that and more.

Welcome! I am a dedicated individual, couples, and family therapist committed to providing an inviting space for self-discovery, healing, and personal growth. I recognize the courage it takes to start your therapeutic journey, and I am here to build a foundation of safety and trust as we walk this path together. My innate curiosity, attunement and warmth allows me to listen to your unique experiences and tailor my therapeutic approach to suit your specific needs and goals.

I take pride in helping others build trust and positive connections, even when it feels hopeless. I currently serve adults, adolescents ages 16+, and families of teens 13 and up. My extensive background in family therapy, working with adults in multiple settings and adolescents in their homes and classrooms allows me to dedicate our time to learning your strengths, and using them to assist you with creating the specific tools that you and your family need to rebuild the connections that you may have believed to be lost forever.

Do you have unresolved issues with yourself, in your relationship, or within your family? You are not alone, and you do not need to suffer. I provide therapy to individuals, couples, and families dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, relationships and more. I will help you heal old wounds, form secure attachments, and develop effective ways of managing your thoughts, feelings, and actions.

Deeply passionate about social justice and facilitating and guiding positive change and development in the lives of others, I am thrilled to connect with you as you begin your journey inward. Healing is truly the risk of showing up for yourself and your resistance to temptation to go back to unsilenced needs, numbing out, disconnection, and erasure. As a black, gender non-binary Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LICSW), I have a personal stake and insight into the work I do. My clinical practice aims to empower and heal individuals, families & communities through therapy, consulting, case management, training, & community outreach.

I have supported clients with an array of presenting issues. My work primarily focuses on children and families but I have provided individual and group therapy for adults.

My ideal PCIT family seeks to enhance their parent-child relationship, heal from trauma, and foster growth. They aim to strengthen bonds, improve communication, and develop effective parenting strategies for a nurturing family environment. My ideal EMDR client desires healing from trauma, aiming to alleviate distress and enhance mental health. My ideal CBT client is motivated to address anxiety, depression, or other challenges, embracing new coping skills for improved well-being, actively engaging in therapy to achieve their goals.

We are connective, social beings, and we all need a support system to help guide us out of the ruts in which we find ourselves. I want to empower you to harness your own strengths, meet the world on your own terms, and make your needs heard, even if you're having trouble finding your voice.

Hello! And welcome to my page! I focus on relationships in my practice, either to ourselves or to others. Our identities are influenced by our many relationships. These relationships can be defined by many aspects; our family of origin, our chosen family, and our outside communities. When our cultural narratives clash, it can disrupt the ways we self-identify and connect with others. I focus on building security and trust in our relationships can improve our ways to overcome the many challenges of life.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family (LMFT) therapist working from a systemic lens through my virtual private practice. My philosophy is that through cultivating your relationship with yourself and by becoming the best, most developed version of yourself, you can engage in relationships - romantic, familial, and platonic - in deeper, more meaningful, and healthier ways. My hope is to facilitate you and/or you and your loved ones through this process by exploring what is keeping you stuck and discovering old patterns that no longer serve you.

Throughout the course of our lives, all of us experience challenging relationship dynamics, family expectations, losses, traumas, societal pressures, oppressive structures, and/or shifts in our identity. Due to these, over time we may find ourselves disconnected from our sense of self and no longer clear on what we need, want, or feel. We may struggle to be present or to be in tune with our bodies. We may feel like we're living for others, rather than for ourselves. Therapy is one way that we can process, heal, and understand these experiences in order to re-embody who we are and who we want to be.

Life is a journey and we aren't meant to travel alone. Sometimes it's helpful to have a person to travel the path with you, to shine light in the dark places. Engaging in counseling is one way in which to get support with your struggles. If you are struggling with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, school, issues of faith, addictions or any other disruption to your life, I would love to get to know you and to help shine light in the dark places.

I love working with all different kinds of people, and I’ll always start with your family (yep, that's your childhood!). I specialize in attachment work. This can help kids/teens and their parents, couples stuck in a cycle of conflict or disconnect, and individuals experiencing anxiety or depression - especially around big life transitions. Folks who come to me (and who stay the longest) are ready to do the deeper work in their lives. They aren't looking for a quick fix - they are looking to truly understand the systems they're a part of, and the agency they have in their own lives to create change.

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 enjoy treating adults, teens, couples (married or otherwise), and families who are suffering from a variety of issues such as depression, anxiety, stress, illness, recent loss, drug and substance abuse and/or a history of trauma (emotional, physical and mental).I specialize in working with couples (married or otherwise). The relational dynamic and negative reinforcement cycles intimate partners find themselves trapped in are the things I have a strong knack for noticing and interrupting to allow couples to find new ways to improve their relationship quality.

Do you often feel weighed down by feelings of anxiety, stress, or depression? Do you find it difficult to manage your relationships with your significant other or family members? Together, we will work on finding strategies and coping skills to help you manage your day-to-day life. I am a board certified Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and earned my Master’s degree from La Salle University in Philadelphia. I have provided therapeutic services to children, teens, adults, families, and couples.

Making sense of your anxieties, fears or depression can feel overwhelming. We all have the need to be connected and challenged so that we can grow into our best self. I believe that therapy should be hard but rewarding work that can be translated into actionable behavior outside of treatment. The cornerstone of making change is finding a therapist who promotes a sense of safety, compassion and respect to allow your true self to emerge and thrive. I have over 15 years of clinical practice experience in New York City and Philadelphia and value working with diverse individuals and families.
