Therapists in Philadelphia, PA

As a licensed psychologist, board certified clinical hypnotherapist and medical psychotherapist, I have been in private practice for 30 years in center city Philadelphia and Chestnut Hill,Pa.

I support adolescents, adults and families struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, parenting, navigating family systems, low self-esteem, symptoms of ADHD and PTSD. I use active and reflective listening to promote an environment where growth and healing can occur.

I see adults and teens seeking to better manage anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship issues, and eating disorders/addictions. My style can be described as warm and collaborative. My clients prefer a therapist who is approachable and "real." They value some direction or new ideas balanced with just having a space to be seen and cared for as they are. I see therapy as a vehicle for people to find their own answers but I also value empirically supported techniques for helping clients feel better. I utilize humor and helps clients set actionable goals so they can make measurable changes.

It is my desire to help you develop ways to exchange your current stress for strength. My approach to therapy is simple. A dialogue between two people, building a trusting relationship, establishing a space for healing and growth.

My practice specializes in aiding individuals facing a range of challenges including self-esteem issues, substance abuse, bullying, anger management, and family conflicts.
