Therapists in Philadelphia, PA
There are many reasons one might seek therapy. Some look for help when they are feeling overwhelmed by events in their lives, such as the end of an important relationship or a challenging medical diagnosis. Others come because they have a persistent sense of suffering they do not fully understand or that has been difficult to resolve. If you feel you are not living your life as fully as you would like, or if you are dissatisfied, stressed, or unhappy, it is worth understanding and addressing.

Y'all, there's no doubt about it - being human is hard sometimes. You may find yourself exhausted by life and frequently have a nagging feeling that something is wrong with you and/or your life. In quiet moments, there is a deep sense of unease inside that you're not sure what to do with and you try to just keep going with the hope that something will shift. You've been through a lot and you've survived. But you're tired of surviving, and the idea of actually thriving in your life and relationships sounds glorious but elusive.

I am a licensed psychologist located in Center City and have been working in the Philadelphia area since 2007. I work with individuals, couples, children and families. Prior to PA, I worked with patients in east Tennessee and in Atlanta. I have trained in psychodynamic, interpersonal and cognitive-behavioral therapies. My research and practice specialties include personality assessment, eating disorders, Veterans issues, those in healing fields, and family systems. For many patients, therapy can be a place to gain better understanding of the thoughts, wishes, fears, and anxieties that can motivate, or inhibit, us all.

Therapy is not a long-term, drawn-out process. Some individuals may need extensive therapy, but most need help at particular times of crisis or when they realize that they need another perspective on themselves or their relationships with their husband or wife, children, family, co-workers, or friends. My approach begins with the here and now, and I assist clients in developing concrete ways to overcome issues standing in their way. My belief echoes the old saying, "You are not the problem; the problem is the problem.

I offer holistic therapy to help women escape the veil of anxiety and live with authenticity. Clients I work with struggle with complex emotions. Despite being intelligent, hard-working, and having a witty sense of humor, life isn’t all rainbows and sunshine.

If you’re ready to drop anxiety and find self-compassion, I'm your gal. We will work together in reclaiming your inner knowing, finding your voice, and living your most authentic life.

Many people move through life feeling disconnected from themselves, from others, and from the present moment. My 20 years of clinical experience have shown me how often this disconnection is rooted in emotional weight carried from the past. You might find yourself going through the motions; stuck in patterns formed long ago out of necessity or survival that now keeping you from the connections and emotional depths that you long for. My experience creating safe and affirming spaces has shown me how powerful therapy can be in helping people reconnect with themselves, shift long-standing patterns, and build meaningful relationships.
