Therapists in Newtown, PA

Newtown Therapy & Wellness Center is founded on the belief that individuals have the innate ability to change and self-actualize. We work with children, adolescents, and adults in individual, couples, group and family sessions. Our providers conduct psycho-educational, ADHD and psychological assessment services. Our methodology involves encouraging clients to be actively involved in their treatment. We rely heavily on an interpersonal model of therapy while incorporating aspects of dialectical behavior therapy, cognitive behavioral, psychodynamic and solution-focused techniques. We are a gender affirming space.

My focus is to help individuals heal, energize, and become aware of their inner strengths.

Located in Newtown & Buckingham PA, Bucks LGBTQ Center is an affirming, safe space for members of the LGBTQ+ community and their families.

We follow WPATH standards of care.

My goal is to provide each client an opportunity to express their thoughts, and feelings, in a nonjudgmental safe space. It is central to me that you feel heard and understood. The therapeutic process is a collaborated approach meeting each individual where they are currently at, and developing a style that works best for their well-being. My style is warm and welcoming with an emphasis on interpersonal strength and the encouragement of positive mindsets to enhance daily functioning.

I specialize in working with children, teen and adult individuals as well as family systems being impacted by depression, anxiety, ADHD, substance abuse, eating disorders, LGBTQ+ topics, trauma processing/PTSD, relational challenges and behavioral disorders. Drawing from a variety of treatment styles and approaches including Experiential, Acceptance and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (one of the most effective treatments for many chronic, recurring, and challenging mental health conditions), I focus on establishment of systemic connection and the emotional experience, authenticity, empathic understanding and compassion.

Life presents us with challenges at every phase, and sometimes collaboration with a trained professional helps to weather the storms of life and promote growth and happiness. In my work with children, teens, and adults, I strive to create a safe accepting environment, so my clients can openly express their throughts and feelings and explore their concerns. My treatment is comprehensive in nature and carefully designed to promote self-awareness and address the unique needs of each individual.

Life is a journey that can be both deeply beautiful and profoundly challenging. Along the way, we all go through rough patches. Anxiety, despair and self-doubt can leave us feeling lost and afraid. Though these experiences may frighten us, they also offer us opportunities for healing and growth if we have the courage to listen to them and learn from them. I am a warm and caring psychotherapist who will provide an atmosphere of safety, compassion, and non-judgmental support as you engage in this process.

You deserve to live your best life, not just survive it. Starting therapy is the first step in that direction.

I have been a licensed psychologist in Pennsylvania since 2003, and practicing in the Bucks County area as a Christian therapist since 1991. I have experience dealing with a wide range of issues and working with children, adolescents, and adults, in addition to teaching at the graduate level. I get tremendous joy from seeing people take their troubling symptoms, the panic attacks, the depressed mood, the self-defeating patterns of relating, and use them to build the self-understanding and character strength necessary to boldly love and experience the kind of intimacy in relationships they never thought possible.

My primary goal in treatment is to help people feel better quickly, so that they can return to their lives better able to deal with their issues and stresses. I truly enjoy working with all types of clients and their unique situations. It is an honor to bear witness to people's struggles and to facilitate growth, change, and understanding.

I am a masters level therapist who specializes in working with LGBTQIA individuals and those experiencing issues with anxiety, depression, body image, relationships, trauma, grief, and other life transitions. I am a HAES aligned therapist who uses a social justice, feminist, and trauma-informed lens in my work. As a person-centered therapist, I will meet clients where they are in their mental health journeys to help them better understand themselves and work toward healing through a variety of techniques that matches the clients' needs.

Whether you're experiencing a recent difficulty or a long-standing challenge, therapy is a terrific opportunity for healing and self-growth in a safe, non-judgmental and supportive environment. Emphasizing warm and caring relationships with my clients, I help them to address certain behaviors, beliefs, attitudes and emotions. As they continue to gain insight, we work together to establish healthier and more effective patterns of behaviors. I believe, when we attain insight we can feel increased freedom and optimism; we no longer feel "stuck" and hopeless in our pain.

I specialize in working with adolescents and adults who are struggling with all forms of eating disorders and disordered eating. Clients who come to see me may have just been diagnosed with an eating disorder or have been struggling for years. Some clients aren't sure if they have an eating disorder, but know they are struggling with food and their body. Clients often reach out to me because they know that I practice from a Health at Every Size(R) framework and they want treatment that is not stigmatizing about weight. Adolescent clients and their families often seek me out because of my expertise doing Family Based Treatment.

With concrete skills, acceptance, growth and meaning can begin to heal the past. By understanding the painful narratives we sometimes unconsciously reinforce, we can start to let go of the hurt related to addiction, depression and anxiety.
