Couples Counseling Therapists in Philadelphia, PA

I enjoy the diversity of my clients, walking with adults of all ages and backgrounds. In 2011 I turned into the joys of psychotherapy as a second career. I see my main job as listening carefully, mirroring your process with empathy and helping you move toward the goals you set, whether they are about reaching deeper inside or moving into the practical steps you need to take next week. My experience and spirituality are assets you can rely on, but they will not direct your own process of understanding, healing and maturation.

Life has many unexpected challenges, our challenges lead us to change ourselves through reflection and the discovery of new insights in order to follow a healthy life plan. I assist clients in transforming life's challenging moments into positive practices that establish a framework to live a fuller and richer life. Through collaboration we will work towards developing an awareness that leads to a place of acceptance and healthy growth. I believe through the journey of therapy and self-discovery, an individual can become more insightful in order thrive in today's challenging world.

I grew up in an urban environment or as I affectionately call it “the hood”. It is my belief that those who grow up in “the hood” walk through life with a unique set of experiences. Those experiences serve as a foundation for the ways in which we show up in the world , how we understand and express emotions and how we engage with others. Through a collaborative and person centered approach I assist my clients in identifying, understanding, and highlighting the positive patterns that have been adopted as they have moved throughout life , while challenging and disrupting the patterns that no longer serve them well.

"As an interactive, solution-focused therapist, my treatment approach is to provide support and practical feedback to help clients address current life challenges and long-standing issues to make important changes. My study of Family Systems Theory informs my practice and is a great resource in working with clients. With compassion and understanding, I help individuals set goals; find resolutions to a wide range of personal concerns and psychological issues. I will work in collaboration with the client to come to terms with the tension, and begin the process of integration and healing. I have over 16 years experience in private practice working with individuals, couples, families and groups.

My extensive nursing background, coupled with my Masters Degree therapy training and experience, have given me a deeper depth of empathy and understanding of life's challenges.

Over the course of life, we accumulate hurts and wounds that impact how we function in our day to day lives. We can feel flooded by a range of difficult, often overpowering thoughts & emotions. We also can experience challenges in our relationships as well as in our efforts to process and respond to overwhelming life events. Integrating experiential aspects of Internal Family Systems (IFS), mindfulness, and somatic therapies along with relational/attachment-based therapy, I will partner with you to help you locate and strengthen your inner resources of healing and resilience.

I am accepting clients ranging from fourteen years of age and older. I work with individuals, families, and couples.

I am a systemically trained and licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (in PA and CA) offering virtual individual, couple, and family therapy. My clients seek support around a myriad of concerns - most common among them are: depression, anxiety, loss, attachment trauma, oppression-based trauma, identity exploration/conflict, racial identity, family/relational conflict, and emotional dysregulation. Clients come to me to deconstruct beliefs about themselves and the world that are no longer serving them and instead creating chaos, dysfunction, and pain. Through our work together, they're able to live more fulfilling lives.

I believe that healing happens in relationship with others, and that therapy can be an excellent place to begin this practice. I know how tough it can be to have a rift in a romantic relationship, a friendship, or even in the relationship with ourselves. Additionally, I believe that trauma-informed, Queer affirming, and anti-racist methodologies are not only necessary but go hand-in-hand with radical growth. My primary focuses are on couples therapy, gender and sexuality, and folks struggling through rigid mindsets such as religious trauma and anxiety.
