Therapists in West Chester, PA

I work with those experiencing mental health issues, trauma, and addictions. An ideal client would be someone who took suggestions and invested in their own healing. Their needs may include a mood disorder or behavior that they want to change. We would work on their thinking and how that impacts their behaviors. We would also look at their motivations and how to increase their motivations to make better decisions. The goal would be that the client would do what they learn in therapy while living their lives. They would no longer need me to help them through things and would be able to lean on their natural support.

I have 25 years and an array of experience coaching, counseling and teaching in the areas of addiction, mental health, behavior issues with children, and parenting. I believe in people and the ability to grow. I have a warm and compassionate approach and find laughter as one of the greatest healers. I believe we should be enjoying our lives but sometimes that is difficult. My overall goal is to help clients enjoy a full and happy life.
