Veterans Therapists in Blue Bell, PA

What sets me apart is that I will call you within 24 hours of getting a call from you.I suppose my ideal client would be the one that would feel the best fit with me. After the research that has been done, what matters most is the relationship (the fit) you have with your therapist, not their level of expertise, sense of humor, great coping skills, etc. However, I do best with individuals who are highly motivated to change. That does not mean that there will not be setbacks. However, it's how we view those setbacks. Are they failures or learning experiences? I prefer learning experiences. My goal is to get you to be your ideal self.

Do you feel isolated, anxious, hurt, and misunderstood? Does it feel like nobody else can understand the experiences that you went through? Do you feel as though you lost a part of you and you cant find yourself? Does it feel as though the experiences that you went through changed who you are and that you cant seem to understand yourself anymore?

Perhaps you've wondered, "Why do I keep making the same mistakes over and over again, or why do find myself picking the wrong partners, or people to surround myself with?"

Still others are looking for relief from Anxiety & Depression, assistance managing Autism Spectrum Disorder in a child, or other family member, or overcoming sports and artistic performance anxiety, while maximizing results.

LMFT, is a licensed Clinical Social Worker and Marriage and Family Therapist and AASECT-certified Sex Therapist for the Council for Relationships, a well-respected not-for-profit counseling organization that offers expertise in individual and couple relationship and intimacy issues and offers a sliding fee scale.

Equine Assisted Therapy (EAT) with a Trauma-Informed Approach at Kindle Hill Foundation. As a trauma-informed therapist, I am focused on helping teens and adults to navigate their unique challenges, both individually and within the dynamics of couples and families, through the healing power of horses. Horses possess an intuitive connection to human emotions and an innate ability to mirror and respond to our innermost feelings. This forms the foundation of EAT—an innovative approach that harmonizes the healing power of horses with evidenced-based therapeutic practices.

With the addition of new highly-motivated clinicians, we are opening up evening and weekend appointments - Get your spot today! As you make the decision to take charge of your life, the relief can begin immediately. This will only increase as you begin and take further steps into therapy, recognizing your strengths and building on growth. In a busy life, many do not pause and assess where they are. Therapy gives you that time. We will work together to define what you want to get out of therapy sessions.

Are you feeling stuck? I help clients move forward with an approach that is warm, down to earth and gently challenging. We will identify negative patterns that are holding you back in your life and build upon your core strengths and values so you can take practical steps toward living a more fulfilling life. You may be struggling with overwhelming stress, loss or trauma. If so, without minimizing the realities of your situation, I will help you accept what cannot be changed and move forward with perspective, hope and confidence.

The world we live in is complicated and ever-changing, and the patterns we develop to address the challenges of life often cease to work for us...in fact, no strategy for living, relating to others, or to ourselves can ever work optimally forever. A depression, a personal life crisis, marital upsets and family conflicts are painful but often signal an important opportunity for self-reflection, assessment of "where I've been" in life, and the chance to create a new pathway for moving forward. This is where an expert therapist can be of value.

Life can be quite overwhelming sometimes. Your stressors and experiences can impact you in so many ways and make it difficult to ask for help. Are you struggling to feel or feel like you are feeling "too" much? Do you have too much on your plate and can't seem to find a path forward? I am here to help. I offer a warm, safe and supportive environment to explore whatever brings you to therapy at this time. We all deserve to be heard and understood. We also crave connection. I work to create a safe and strong alliance with you so that you can freely explore these concerns.

I am taking new clients! I can generally schedule new clients for a session within 2 business days. I offer both telehealth sessions as well as outdoor, nature therapy sessions in which we can talk on a park bench or walk along a trail. If you have been struggling to find a therapist, please reach out. Working together, we will explore who you are and create your vision of a healthy, happy life.

You know yourself better than anyone else: your struggles, dreams, desires, goals, feelings, relationships. As a psychotherapist and trauma specialist, I help people understand their experiences in a safe and supportive space that promotes growth, healing, and exploration of all areas of life. If you are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, sad, or easily triggered, talking with a professional can help you navigate through those emotions and find balance. Therapy can help people regain control/focus in their lives and disrupt the cycles that keep leading to the same negative outcomes.
