Therapists in Wayne, PA

I'm a licensed psychotherapist in PA and NJ, and the founder of Be Here Now Psychotherapy. I'm experienced in helping adult children with narcissistic parents, and those recovering from abusive romantic relationships. I specialize in treating Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), using psychodynamic therapy, IFS and TIST. My overarching area of expertise is trauma, complex trauma and PTSD. I hold a certificate in Integrative Somatic Trauma Therapy. I believe healing is a holistic endeavor, and depth psychology can be integrated with somatic work to unite body and mind to help us get to know ourselves on on many levels.

I use a relational lens, and therefore each session looks different based upon the client’s needs and experience. I work with clients to create safer spaces that feel real and honor the many experiences an individual may be navigating. To me, the most important thing is to care and love one another. My work is rooted in care and love for humanity and the goal of betterment of our society as a whole, starting with the way we treat ourselves.

Some seek out therapy to help with a particular problem, and others to better understand themselves and their internal world. In any case, feeling heard and understood by a therapist with whom you share a meaningful connection, and working collaboratively to make sense of your thoughts, feelings, and experiences, is almost always productive. Because therapy is an exercise in vulnerability, the fit between client and therapist is a powerful predictor of outcome. The right therapist will feel compatible in personality; challenge you in the context of warmth, safety, and respect; and meet you with responsiveness and empathy.

Having a difficult time coping with stressors? Lashing out on people you love most? Losing interest in things you once enjoyed? I am here to help! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, working primarily with children (ages 6-10), adolescents (ages 11-18), and young adults.

I work with individuals suffering from anxiety & panic, depression, personality disorders, adjustment disorders, coping difficulties, ADHD, and family issues.

Welcome to my practice! My practice has a focus on psychological issues affecting individuals, couples, and families. I use a combination of psychoanalytic, psychodynamic and dialectical behavioral therapies. Psychoanalytic-psychodynamic therapy strives for personal growth through insight-oriented approaches. Dialectical behavioral therapies examine thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and the relationships and patterns between them. Additionally, I am the Co-Director of the Psychoanalytic-Psychotherapy Certification Program at the Psychoanalytic Center of Philadelphia.

Now accepting clients for individual and group therapy! Whether you are looking to process the past, change the present, or prepare for the future, I would be honored to help you on your journey. I have worked with children, adolescents, and adults for over 15 years, focussing on reducing anxiety, building self esteem, and finding motivation to build the life you deserve.

It is my belief that everyone has suffered from a mood disturbance at one time in their life. What makes for different diagnosis is the intensity of the mood change and the duration. I believe we fuel our mood by our own cognitions and unhealthy habits and coping skills. My style is extremely interactive and direct, insuring results early on in the treatment process. When possible, I try treatment without medications, however there are chemical imbalances which must be treated via a Psychiatrist (for medications) and a psychotherapist for the psychoeducational piece,(talk therapy).I maintain relationships with area psychiatrists.

I believe that a person moves in and out of their various life stages with the desire to learn and sometimes re-learn life lessons. I work with clients to enhance self-awareness, insight, and skill sets for managing life. Our therapeutic experience will be a joint effort in reaching your goals! I work with adult couples struggling in their relationships, communication, and living styles over all stages of life.

My goal as a therapist is to assist you in developing skills to help you thrive in life, feel grounded and a sense of peace and happiness.

I draw from modalities that are tailored to each individual, depending upon their concerns.

We are passionate about working with adults who struggle with the social, emotional, and behavioral challenges related to the diagnoses of ASD, ADD/ADHD, learning differences, parenting stressors and strategies, coping skills, relationship issues, self-esteem, anxiety, depression, feelings of overwhelming stress, and grief/loss, trauma and PTSD.

Feeling stagnant or stuck? Do you feel lost, overwhelmed, unfulfilled, or isolated? Do you find yourself repeating the same behaviors, even though you know they are not helping you get to where you want to be? You want things to be different with your entire being, but for whatever reason just cant seem to get there. You've turned to addictive behaviors or developed an unhealthy relationship with food to cope. Self sabotage and self criticism turns into a vicious cycle. You have tried therapy before, but didn't feel like you got what you needed because you were listened to but not challenged or pushed out of your comfort zone.
