Therapists in Chadds Ford, PA

As a licensed psychologist with over 35 years of experience, I am committed to working with individuals and couples to address physical and mental health issues, sexual/relationship concerns, professional challenges, and life transitions. I believe that a good psychotherapeutic relationship can help you to feel better about yourself, develop resilience and enhance your relationships. My program "Lost and Found" is for women who are 5-10 years post cancer treatment. This work helps to optimize your health, deal with the trauma of illness and find ways to utilize your strengths and abilities to live a more fulfilled, authentic life.

Therapy is a collaborative process that promotes healing, change, and growth, and the therapy relationship is the foundation for this process. Given this, my goal is to provide you with a safe space in which we work together to meet your needs and goals for treatment. Whether you are struggling with relationship issues, grief/loss, low self-esteem, depression, or anxiety; you feel unfulfilled, lonely, or in need of support and coping skills; or you are in the midst of a life transition that you need help navigating, we can address these in therapy.

Hope. Acceptance. Understanding. Guidance. Clarity. Solutions. These words reflect what we are often looking for when facing life struggles and each embody what I strive to provide. My desire is to journey with you in a supportive, caring environment centered on a mutual partnership. This builds a foundation from which you can share your story, feel heard, discover your goals, and address the circumstances you are facing. I value understanding you as a whole person with strengths and the ability to grow. I believe that people can gain the insight and skills needed to experience transformation through well-researched interventions.

Seeking therapy means you have to trust a new and unfamiliar person and process. My job is to create a strong therapeutic relationship that allows you to explore the circumstances and relationships that are interfering with your life in a safe, nonjudgmental environment. In my practice, I help my clients gain personal insight and individual strength to help them address issues with depression, stress and anxiety, parenting, life transitions and interpersonal relationships. I have a certificate from Bryn Mawr College in Child and Adolescent Psychotherapy, and I especially enjoy working with preteens, teens, and young adults.

My goal is to help you improve your quality of life, substantially. I will help you make the positive changes you need by reducing anxiety, easing your stress, and gaining more control in your life. You will achieve and experience these goals in a secure and caring environment, discover your own inner strengths and develop effective coping skills. For more information on treatment modalities and specific problem areas I target please read on in this website page. I specialize in cognitive behavioral therapy, crisis intervention therapy and interpersonal therapy focusing on anxiety, depression and relationship issues.

The idea of counseling can be scary. I use humor to normalize symptoms of stress and provide a comfortable environment to let go and take new supported risks. My clients come here to gain a sense of what patterns are keeping them stuck and to face what has been avoided so they can achieve greater satisfaction and fulfillment in their lives. My objective is to help bring awareness to the answers that lie within you, learn stress reduction techniques, and guide you to take supported risks that can change your life.

Are you tired of feeling like you don't matter? Life is made up of many relationships. Some of them are very rewarding - you couldn't live without them! Then there are....well lets just say "the others". In these relationships, you question yourself, you question your perspective, you dont feel "safe", you question how you got here....in this place where you feel powerless, marginalized and invisible. Maybe you are suffering from Relationship Abuse? No wonder you feel anxious and depressed!

My many years working as a psychologist have taught me that growth on any issue is possible with motivation, and that a person's strengths are key to achieving one's goals. I am every bit as attuned to an individual's gifts and coping skills, as I am to the challenges faced. I foster a safe, comfortable atmosphere as the process depends on feeling at ease to say what is on one's mind. My clients comment on my listening well and deeply, and that I have helped them make connections that are extremely valuable in identifying a path that is right for them.

Are you feeling frustrated in your marriage? Are you tired of having the same fight over and over again without anything changing? Do you have sexual concerns? With over a decade of clinical experience in treating couples who are struggling to connect emotionally and resolve conflicts, I understand how frustrating relationship problems can get. At the same time I also understand how difficult and even embarrassing it can be to call a counselor and admit that your relationship needs some help. But let me assure you that the discomfort of reaching out for help is well worth it.

LIfe is hard but I love my job! I am passionate about providing empathetic and compassionate therapy for people struggling with a variety of issues such as anxiety, depression, communication struggles, & more. I specialize in processing and moving beyond trauma and believe that the root to many of our struggles can be found in past relationships and attachments. I utilize systems theories and relational framework as a foundation for clients to explore and connect how relationships and environment impact larger goals and sense of self. I want to help you understand yourself better and utilize your past as strength to move forward.

I believe that we are all souls having a human experience. In that experience, we often discover parts of ourselves that are in need of deeper healing. I have special techniques I use with clients, such as EMDR & Tapping, that produce extremely FAST results in achieving change. I view intimate relationships as Sacred Contracts. I believe those contracts are full of opportunities for individuals to learn how to heal their personal triggers in order to emotionally & spiritually evolve. I firmly believe that therapy should be a transformational process, helping clients manifest the life & relationship their soul longs to experience!
