Adoption Therapists in Royersford, PA

Therapist profiles can be overwhelming. You may feel like you have to know exactly what you need in order to find a therapist that addresses it. I want you to know that helping you learn what you need is part of therapy. Maybe all you know for sure is that you are emotionally suffering and would like help. My background is working with adoption (all forms), foster care, family loss, trauma, parenting, co-dependency, and more. However, I also help folks from all walks of life reduce their emotional suffering and achieve their goals. Whatever your needs are, I'm happy to see if I can help you suffer less and enjoy life more.

Are you tired of repeating old patterns that are holding you back in your life? Have you been feeling angry, empty, lonely stressed out and unhappy? Are you struggling through a transition or a loss or with the legacy of emotional, physical or sexual abuse? There are times in everyone's life when reaching out for and receiving help can make a real difference in resolving problems, easing pain and living a more satisfying life. In psychotherapy a safe place will be created in which to deal with and resolve the unhappiness you are experiencing.

I have been in practice thirty years. I see psychotherapy as a process of increasing self awareness, developing a more realistic and tolerant self esteem, and identifying and working through losses, disappointments and relational conflicts. This process enables reduction in pain, greater self acceptance, and comfort in relationships and family. This process occurs in a collaborative effort between you the client, and myself. The safe environment of the office allows for the full expression and understanding of what you experience, think, and feel. Our work together enables symptom relief, greater personal understanding, growth, responsibility and contentment.

You deserve to be the best functioning version of you. Navigate the journey to courage while feeling empowered and supported working through animal assisted psychotherapy, play therapy, and expressive art therapy. I also provide ADHD and executive function coaching services, ADHD assessment. Therapeutic services can look different for each person because we all walk different paths. That being said - our goals are all the same - to be the best functioning individual we can - whatever that looks like to us. Let us walk alongside you in your journey that we know you’re capable of.

We started this practice because we love what we do, helping people grow. Here at Blue Creek, we offer individual, couples and family therapy. We serve children, teens, adults and older adults.

However, our one common goal is for you to feel welcomed and understood from the moment you make contact.

At The Art of Emotion, we believe in a collaborative approach to therapy.

Navigating our worlds can be really challenging these days. Day to day life can be complex enough, but when additional stressors appear, things can get really difficult. Sometimes it is really helpful to have someone with a calm and quiet presence, and a couple decades of skilled practice outside of your normal life to talk to when things get overwhelming. It is reassuring to know that you can find effective and compassionate help.

Are you struggling to reconnect with yourself? Have you lost a sense of peace and security in your life? There are so many reasons that this may be happening. Some of the most common ones are recent life changes, relationship issues, grief, family issues, or childhood trauma. Or, maybe you aren't quite sure how things got to this point. You are not alone, and there IS hope. Together we can move the barriers that are getting in the way of the healthy, peaceful, and meaningful life that you deserve. Therapy is an amazing process that can change your life. I am eager to hear your story and help you find your way.

I work best with clients ages 18 to 70 who are experiencing depression, anxiety, grief, loss, trauma or addiction. I enjoy assisting clients who are interested in addressing healthy coping skills, core beliefs, and who are open to examining what they think and how it impacts what they feel and how behaviors can be re-learned. I support diversity and welcome persons of all faiths or those who are atheists or humanists. In addition, I support the LGBT community. I believe that I connect well with most clients and find that those seeking treatment are much healthier and lovable than they believe they are.

Therapy is a journey that can be beneficial for people at any stage of life; whether it's to adjust to parenthood, overcome fear, process loss, build self esteem, practice more self care, reduce anxiety, or to simply have a safe space to talk about the beauty and hardships in life. I am here for you and with you at whatever stage of life you may be in. I believe in the importance of having a strong and trusting relationship with your therapist. You can expect to always be met with empathy, understanding, and kindness when meeting with me. I believe that when relationships are strong, change is even stronger.

I have over 30 years of clinical experience helping individuals and families to resolve negative thoughts, feelings, hurts and self-concepts and to move ahead in a healthier and clearer way. I am so appreciative of the trust that I have received over the years from my clients. My expertise lies in working with individuals burdened by anxiety, depression and stress.

I believe individuals of all ages deserve to experience peace and wholeness, and should not feel as though they are "stuck" in their life circumstances. I desire for clients to feel safe and known in my presence, and for them to sense I am honored to hear their stories. I am passionate about coming alongside individuals in the midst of their pain, and assisting them, with compassion, in their unique journeys towards renewed freedom and healing. No matter one's age or presenting issue, I enjoy creating realistic goals to work on in the therapeutic process, as well as creating a genuine connection and alliance.

Parents, adolescents, client with chronic pain, even immigrants like myself before becoming a US citizen. You are welcome here. Let’s right the wheel, and take control.

Know thyself. Socrates believed that self-knowledge was essential for having a good life. What does it mean to truly know yourself? How could you change your life by delving deeper into yourself? Therapy is a safe space to do such things. Life can be complicated and challenging for a myriad of reasons. My job is to help you untangle this complication and aid you in your journey towards self exploration.

With more than 14 years of experience working in the field, I bring warmth, hints of humor, and an empowering voice to support my clients in creating more fulfilling lives for themselves.
