Rational Emotive Behavior (REBT) Therapists in Darby, PA

Sometimes it feels like the world just isn't made for us and no matter what we try, we can't seem to find a way around those things that prevent us from getting our needs met. I meet people where they are and attempt to take an outside perspective in helping them meet their goals as we define together. I also try to fully understand a person as it includes where they came from, decisions made through life, and influences outside of their control. I want to help you build the life you want with your own strength.

I have first-hand knowledge on the effect that unresolved mental health issues can endure on daily living. I have worked with all ages and my expertise is related to working with individuals who have had difficulties with life’s stressors such as, dealing with relationships, & negative self-perceptions, as well as symptoms of depression, anxiety, adjustment issues, Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity, and other concerns. Outside of individual therapy; I facilitate group therapy for adolescents involved in intensive outpatient (IOP) therapy, focusing on Trauma, behavioral issues & LGBTQIA+.

I am accepting new clients age 14 years and older. I respect the courage it takes to open up and talk to someone about the stress in your life, relationship difficulties, and day-to-day challenges. It is important to talk to someone who is nonjudgmental. I value the match between the therapist and the client and believe this fit is an essential component of therapy. I approach therapy as a collaboration in which the client participation plays an integral role. Our work together will build upon your existing strengths so that you can achieve your goals.

I have over 30 years experience as a child and adult psychotherapist and psychiatrist. I practice primarily psychotherapy, addressing a full range of issues from emotional strains, trauma, loss and anxiety to developmental issues including autistic spectrum presentations, and psychosis. I am former Chair of the Child and Adolescent Psychoanalytic Training Program at the Psychoanalytic Center of Philadelphia. During this time of COVID and with the myriad of changes in our world, lives become unsettled at home, in our work, in our families and in our personal relationships. I work with children, adults, families, parents and infants.

Immediate openings for virtual therapy sessions focused on learning to gain control over those behaviors that react to negative situations. Phil brings an eclectic approach to partnering with you as we increase your self awareness, identify causes of anxiety, depression, addiction and other triggers that are affecting your relationships, your negative thought patterns and how you act at home, at work, with family and friends.

I provide therapy for individuals, couples, families, adults and children. I have worked with many different clients providing the support needed for change. My experience at various social service agencies, at a child and family clinic; and in a college clinic has given me the opportunity to work with many adults, children, adolescents and families. I find my training in marriage and family therapy is particularly helpful for my clients in that it helps individuals better understand their relationships with themselves and others in their life. I regularly look at the systemic process in relationships, and at attachment issues.

Clear trauma & re-discover your innate natural wholeness. In psychotherapy, I will hear your life story, guide you to new possibilities, & help you build resilience from your inner strengths.

Feel Better. Whether for depression, anxiety or relationship issues, the majority of the clients we see come to therapy with the goal of feeling better; happier, more connected to others, and free from the paralysis of emotional pain. Primarily psychodynamic and systems-oriented in approach, we look at how an issue experienced in the now came to be there, from early childhood experience to prior adult experiences, and how these all culminated in the present problem(s). We also utilize techniques to individually tailor treatment to the patient's needs, including cognitive/behavioral, problem-solving, and insight-oriented therapies, and often ..humor(!)

Hello! My name is Kathleen Walker, a Licensed Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania. In my thirties, I decided to change careers and began my work in the Mental Health field. During the last ten years of education and practice, my love for this work has grown exponentially. I have a deep respect for people who are attempting to work towards bettering their lives, no matter where they are in that process. So much of my experience involves working with those who are fighting addiction and impulse issues.

I work with those who feel disconnected from their original self, to reconnect and experience full-body, heartfelt, vibrancy in their life. I work from the perspective that our psyche is purposeful and always working to heal us. Often, our inner voice, innate wisdom, and desire to move toward greater connection with ourselves and others gets lost in the pain and struggle of life. Instead of being a strength, we lose contact with our deepest, truest self. I seek to co-create a therapeutic space where clients can explore their lives, deepen their self-awareness, create a sense of inner spaciousness, and reconnect with forgotten parts

Are anxiety and overwhelm robbing you of the ability to live your life confidently? Lately you feel like you've been having more bad days than good days. Self critical thoughts and spiraling worst case scenarios crowd your mind. Your friends, family, or partner want to help but they don't know how. Do you feel like no matter how hard you try, nothing seems to work? Have you recently realized, "something has to change here." If you are looking to learn new skills and get to know yourself again, you have come to the right place. I work together with my clients to break this anxious cycle and finally start to do things differently.

So, my guess is that you are here because you are looking to make a change possibly. The same problem continues to surface without an end in sight. Maybe you thought about making this change before, but then a few days went by then life went on. Even though life went on that change you needed to make never happened so now we are back here again. At this very moment when you are contemplating a change it is very important that you make a commitment to yourself that you will not continue to do the same thing over and over expecting a different result.

Life's ups and downs are sometimes overwhelming and can impact one's mental and physical state. In a safe space, I gently challenge clients to work on becoming more self-aware, so they can break unhealthy patterns which affect how we see ourselves and others.
