Female Therapists in Bear, DE

Most of us face struggles at some point in our lives and these struggles may include stress at work, difficulty with a relationship, or family problems. Struggles may include emotional symptoms such as depression or anxiety, behavioral problems such as having difficulty throwing useless items away or even drinking alcohol too often, and/or cognitive symptoms such as repetitive upsetting thoughts or uncontrolled worry to name a few. Sometimes, life's struggles can be eased by talking with a supportive friend/family member, but when this doesn't resolve the issue, it makes sense to seek a qualified therapist like myself.

Is your Child or Teen having problems with anxiety, depression, or self-esteem issues? Is your family having significant parent-child conflict? I want to help you & your family achieve a healthier life. Adolescents and young adults have unique challenges that can be difficult to navigate. During these critical periods in life, many may face peer issues, family conflict, self-esteem difficulty, parent-child conflict, and difficulty with transitions (e.g., high school to college; college to career). I have approximately 10 years of experience working with these age groups. Currently, I am also available to see young adult clients.

Can we agree that emotions can be challenging and life transitions can be overwhelming? I specialize in supporting adults with anxiety and perinatal mothers and fathers. We will guide you through this transformative phase with understanding and expertise. But my practice is not limited to anxiety and parenthood alone. I warmly welcome college students, members of the LGBTQ community, and adults who find themselves grappling with the weight of depression and anxiety. Regardless of your unique journey or struggles, I extend an open hand to anyone seeking solace, understanding, and effective coping strategies

Let's craft a life where you meet your goals and thrive in fulfilling relationships. Do you feel overwhelmed by managing your family or personal relationships? Do you feel neck-deep in anxiety? Do you feel heard? Accepted? Relationships can be challenging and complicated, but you don't have to navigate it alone.

Eye-opening, Challenging, Supportive, Life-changing: These are words clients have used to describe our therapy work together. Many of the individuals with whom I work are experiencing relationship difficulties, life transitions, feelings of anxiety and depression, previous trauma, and loss. I strive to help people gain increased awareness, learn to live more in the present, improve their relationships, and recognize the "shoulds" and other messages that are holding them back from experiencing a more fulfilling life. As a Gestalt-trained Therapist, I see "symptoms" as creative adjustments developed in response to difficult or invalidating environments and experiences.

I provide mental health counseling services to individuals and families impacted by mental health and life challenges often generated by the complexities of our modern world. These challenges include depression, anxiety ,adults working through childhood sexual abuse traumas, work/life balance and other life challenges. My mission is to help clients help themselves, adapt to the process of change, transition and recovery by engaging in a Client Centered Therapeutic Process. This process is meant to encourage client self awareness, acknowledgement of personal value, exploration of thoughts, feeling, beliefs and behaviors impacting client lives in the here and now.
