Parent-Child Interaction (PCIT) Therapists in Philadelphia, PA
We don't just "talk about" behavior; we move quickly into implementing high-level protocols ( PCIT, PMT, ERP, etc.) to target specific symptoms.
If you feel like you’ve tried every "calm-down corner," sticker chart, and deep-breathing exercise only to end up back at square one, you aren’t alone. You don’t need years of talk therapy to see a shift in your home. You need a battle-tested plan and the confidence to lead it. I work with motivated parents who are ready to trade "hope it works" for "know it works." Using scientifically backed strategies that have been refined by real families, we’ll map out why the meltdowns are happening and build a roadmap to stop them.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, and a License Clinical Alcohol and Drug Counselor and a Certified Employee Assistance Professional (CEAP). I specialize in treating individuals who are struggling to make changes in their lives. I also work with couples. When working with couples I create a safe place where each person feels safe and heard. I assist the couple with conflict resolution, infidelity, and rebuilding trust. I help my clients realize that what they have experienced in life does not define who they are as a person. We will develop a therapeutic relationship that is warm, empathetic and caring.

Communication is key. I work with couples and parents struggling to connect with their partner, siblings, parents, colleagues, and children. I have a particular communication model that cultivates a stronger connection to those that matter most to you. I will show you exactly what you're doing that's creating tension and arguments in your relationships. I'll then show you a better approach that formulates a stronger, more intense bond. Instead of arguing, being stressed, and anxious there's better understanding as you not only learn how to speak better but also how to listen better as well.

I use a gentle psychodynamic approach to work together through unresolved issues, repetitive patterns, and crises. I work with clients facing the trauma of misplacement, domestic abuse, bullying, self-harm and eating disorders. I especially love working with immigrants who are navigating cultural, emotional, and economic adjustments. I have experience working with college students and young adults, struggling with anxiety, depression, life transition, and relationship issues. Free associations, dream analysis, art, and play are some of the ways I help my clients express themselves.

Hi, I’m Michelle, a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 14 years of experience helping teens, adults, and families navigate life’s challenges. I’ve always been drawn to helping people in meaningful ways. I initially planned to become a teacher, but I quickly realized I wanted to work more personally and one-on-one with individuals. That path led me to counseling, where I found my passion for supporting people through healing and growth.

Everyone can use an objective voice to help them work out what is going on in their lives. Sometimes relief can begin just by deciding that a little help won’t hurt. “Beneath every behavior there is a feeling. And beneath each feeling is a need. And when we meet that need rather than focus on the behavior, we begin to deal with the cause, not the symptom” (Ashleigh Warner). This is my philosophy for counseling. I have done work with children/adolescents and their families. Mental health concerns manifest differently in children/teens than they do in adults, and I know what to look for and how to help find the skills to help.
