Medicare Therapists in Hockessin, DE

I have a PhD in Psychology. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker trained in a variety of treatment modalities to provide diagnostic and therapeutic services to young adults, adults, couples and families. My practice addresses issues of depression, anxiety, addiction, stress, trauma, self-esteem, relationships, life transitions, compulsive disorders and grief. I help people who have problems with addictive behaviors. Working with family members who are affected by the addiction of a loved one is part of my mental health practice.

I’ve been a therapist of one type or another for the past 30 years. I’m currently seeing patients for a number of reasons, some rather moderate and some fairly severe. I have extension experience with addictive thinking, anxiety (including compulsive behaviors), depression, existential or interpersonal concerns, bi-polar depression, mindfulness and anger. As a rule, I don’t see couples. My patients range in age from 11 to 90.

My approach to therapy is individualized and conversational, aimed at developing a respectful atmosphere in which troubling feelings, thoughts, and actions can be shared, reconsidered, and understood from a new perspective, hopefully with a sense of expanded choice, options, and decisions. Whether and how to change oneself can be explored from a pragmatic, step-by-step framework to a more abstract and emotional level. Usually both emotion and action come into play in any attempt to improve the quality of one's life and depend in part upon a personal connection between my client and myself that encourages effort and hopefulness.

Dr. Mitch works well with adult individuals who are experiencing a broad array of troubles, including depression, anxiety and relationship stress.

I specialize in helping individuals navigate major life changes or transitions. This might include getting married or divorced, caring for a partner or relative, welcoming a new child, changing jobs or careers, getting older, mid-life uncertainty, losing a loved one. These types of changes can feel destabilizing and create anxiety or depression, even if the change is something you want. Many clients come in saying they feel stuck and don't know what to do anymore. Talking through these life events and understanding how they affect you can help reduce the worry and uncertainty, making it easier to think clearly and make decisions.

I earned my Ph.D. from the University of Delaware in 2001, and I have been a practicing psychologist since that time. Over the years I have had the privilege of working with a wide range of children, teens, and adults with varying life stressors and mental health concerns, including anxiety, depression, relationship issues, parenting concerns, or work/school stress.
