Therapists in Valley Forge, PA

If you are tired of things as they are and need a change - it's time to take that step! Have you felt anxious, stressed, sad, lonely, misunderstood, disconnected, and overwhelmed? Have you come to find that your view of yourself and the way you experience relationships prevents you from finding happiness or meaning? Having a safe space - and taking the time to reflect is crucial. Reconsidering how you view yourself - and the way you relate to those around you - can shift your perspective. This can lead to personal enrichment and healthier boundaries in your life and relationships.

Does it feel like you are just going through the motions? Are you struggling to connect with meaning and purpose in your life? Are you ready to make changes in your life but don't know where to start? If you feel blocked from reaching your full potential, or like the life you dream about is a world away, you're not alone. Being shaken from the path is a normal part of the human experience. However, re-finding your way can build you up stronger than ever. I believe that the counseling relationship is a deeply human and healing connection that reawakens ambition, purpose, and belonging.

In therapy, I try to understand and accept each person. That builds the client's self-esteem. Then I work together with the client to find the unique solution to his or her trouble, whether it's depression, or anxiety, or relationship problems. Different people need different kinds of help, so I don't limit myself to one kind of therapy. I'm trained in several, so the client and I pick the methods we think will help him or her the most. The relationship is one of mutual respect moving forward to overcome an obstacle to the client's happiness.

I focus a great deal on helping people expand their awareness of aspects of themselves and their important relationships that they have difficulty paying attention to and feeling. This increased awareness helps people feel more flexible and free to navigate the obstacles and cross-currents they find facing them in their lives, rather than remain stuck in repetitive cycles of suffering.

Are you considering starting therapy? I'm interested in learning about what is bringing you here. Starting this process can feel very overwhelming. I believe people start to heal the moment they feel heard. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I offer a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment that focuses on developing an authentic and therapeutic relationship with my clients. Together we can understand what has been happening in your life, explore your values, gain insight, and increase self-awareness to help you live more effectively and understand yourself in new ways.

Anxiety and stress affect everyone. Whatever the cause- relationships, school, work, medical issues, existential/spiritual crisis, loss of any kind- it can be overwhelming. Important obligations and events might be avoided, communication and connection compromised. Self-esteem, sleep, energy level, and mood all may suffer. We will collaborate to address the challenging areas of your life, manage stresses from your environment and body, and develop strategies to overcome unhelpful patterns of thought and behavior. Through this work it will be possible to experience relief, become happier, and evolve as a person.

Are you struggling with wanting change and not knowing how to start? Are you dealing with worry, sadness or relationship struggles? Are you wanting to work through trauma from your past and not able to navigate that on your own? If you identify with these questions I may be the right therapist for you.

You have good days and bad days. At times, the sadness and stress are overwhelming. Maybe someone important to you has died or you're struggling with a significant relationship or a life transition. Maybe others cannot relate to your loss & you're feeling very alone. You've landed here because you need to talk to someone about it. I specialize in grief and loss. Grief is a natural response to death & loss but this feels like a wilderness you have not explored before and you need some guidance. Are you interested in feeling less overwhelmed & more settled? You don't have to do this on your own.

Since starting in the field about 20 years ago, I have had the privilege of working therapeutically with diverse populations in various clinics, hospitals, and schools. Over the past several years I have focused on treating clinical and forensic clients through my private practice. I am currently accepting new clients to be seen either virtually or in person at my office in Phoenixville, PA.

Was your journey towards parenthood one that brought overwhelming feelings of sadness, grief, and anxiety? Has your relationship with your partner changed drastically since having your child? Is being a parent much more difficult than you expected it would be? If you’ve experienced anxiety, depression or trauma in the perinatal period, you’re not alone. The pregnancy, birth, and postpartum period can be one of the most consuming & loneliest times in a new parent's life. No one deserves for this time in their lives to be filled with distressing thoughts, dread, or fear.

At a time of unprecedented mental health crisis, there is hope in new approaches that integrate ancient wisdom with modern advances. We have the capacity to create new realities when we understand the nature of our own patterns of thought and behavior. This consciousness is the first step toward healing. Contemplative psychotherapy enables introspective awareness of mental processes and behavior and is a necessary pre-requisite for effective self-regulation.

Hi! I’m Victoria and I have experience working with teens, young adults and adults with a special interest in anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, and trauma. I believe everyone already has the qualities they need to meet their goals and therapy can be about learning to access and utilize them.

I specialize in treating adults and young adults, with a treatment approach that begins with building a safe, caring and trusting therapeutic environment. This facilitates better understanding of self, relationships, and behaviors, and leads to insight into areas of challenge that can be limiting and frustrating. While insight is important, so are “tools” for managing difficult emotions such as anxiety, guilt, and sadness. My goal is to empower patients to recognize how to incorporate their learnings from therapy into day-to-day functioning and long-lasting change.

Reach for the life you were meant to have and reach for your fullest potential. We offer you a helping hand in getting your life where you want it to be.

We offer individual, family, couples and marriage therapy, pastoral counseling and spiritual support in helping you deal with life's challenges and in helping you make what you want out of your life. We specialize in issues of depression; loss and grief; spirituality; couples and family concerns; geriatrics and life transition issues.

First we will talk about your concerns and ways you’ve already tried to address your issues. During the evaluation we will create a plan that will address your current situation with respect to your history. As we evaluate patterns we can work to understand and reprocess any traumatic memories. Together we can build a connection based on trust and honesty. Your confidence will improve as we practice using creative tools and new skills. As you move forward, sessions can be scheduled at comfortable intervals to provide ongoing, affordable support for as long as you need.
