Family Therapy in Bethlehem, PA

If you are looking to reduce anxiety, acquire healthy coping skills, and improve your relationships then you are in the right place. I am a licensed professional counselor, and I am passionate about helping teens and adults who are ready to process the deep inner conflicts to stop self-sabotaging. As your therapist I can help you see these patterns and also assist you in creating a roadmap to achieving sustained and meaningful change. I specialize working with individuals seeking support for anxiety, trauma, depression, and low self-esteem.

I strive to provide therapy with the qualities I would want as a client: the ability to provide space to feel comfortable and supported, cultivate mutual respect, suspend judgement while walking side by side through dark moments, and share honest and compassionate feedback. I aim to listen and point out areas of your story that are important to be attentive to. In fact, as your therapist it is my responsibility to act as a detective for your feelings, thoughts, ideas, and emotions. These qualities have shaped my areas of specialization, including EMDR for trauma as well as general therapy for anxiety, depression, and grief/loss.

Life can get stressful and overwhelming, but your mental health treatment does not have to be . We believe that where there is hope there can be healing. Having been trained in both mental health and substance abuse therapy, we can assist you in meeting both your personal and therapeutic goals, so that you can live the life you wish to lead. We are equipped to work with people of all races, ethnicities, religious backgrounds, ages, and sexual orientations.

Having the chance to talk and be heard in a non-judgmental environment can be the key to breaking out of old patterns, gaining insight, and arriving at valuable new perspectives. I am a certified trauma professional, and my areas of focus include but are not limited to adjustment and relationship issues, trauma, anxiety, and depression.

Finding a connection with someone you can trust, is difficult. Sometimes, finding the right words and identifying emotions can be uncomfortable and frustrating. More often than not, the fear of judgement can be so overwhelming, it prevents us from reaching out and seeking the help we need. I can offer you a warm and welcoming environment, free of judgement but, full of empathy, compassion and understanding. At the end of each session, you will walk away knowing and feeling the interaction was authentic.

Whether you are seeking mental health or sport performance counseling, I am motivated to empower clients to achieve their goals and to improve their overall quality of life through variety of evidence-based techniques, including cognitive-behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and mindfulness practices. I believe in a holistic approach to mental health and sport performance, addressing both the mind and body. I look forward to getting to know you and working together.

Does negative self-talk inhibit you from opportunities that could potentially enrich your life? Whether it be going for a promotion at work or missing out on fulfilling relationships, what we tell ourselves can either hinder or help us. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients recognize the connection between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to engender a sense of empowerment. In a world where matters feel increasingly out of our control, it is helpful to acknowledge what we can control. My Person-Centered approach creates a non-judgmental environment where we can explore difficult topics.

I specialize in the treatment of anxiety and OCD, with an emphasis on women's mental health.

From an early age I have been intrigued by the human mind and how it works. This interest has been enhanced through my study of psychology and human behavior. Psychotherapy remains a complex although understandable endeavor. That doesn't mean it's easy-for either client or therapist. If you, as the client is committed to doing the work in therapy, the process will promote tremendous change and growth over time-even though most of us yearn for a quick, painless cure!

Sometimes, life gets a bit overwhelming and we just need a nonjudgemental ear to vent to. Sometimes, we need someone to walk along with us on a journey to make changes in our lives and we want validation that we are on the right path. Sometimes, we need a nudge to begin to make those changes. I would like to be that person for you. Using a relaxed, calming approach, I will listen intently, ask questions and have conversation, to help guide you on your path to wellness. We will work together to set attainable goals, add meditation and affirmations to your daily routine .

Counseling in a safe space to identify and explore the things that keep you stuck and prevent you from living the life you want to lead. A safe non-judgmental environment will allow you to find or enhance motivation for change and identify choices that may have been overlooked or seen as not being possible in the past. Many people entering therapy are overwhelmed or find themselves at a crossroads in life when they need to adapt to new circumstances or adjust to uncomfortable changes in employment, relationships, or loss.

Folks needing a space to get curious. To have insightful conversations about life experiences and how it all impacts us. Let's come up with those questions and answers to know yourself better.

Ever wonder to yourself - why am I so unsure about everything I do? How do I know the decisions I make are rational or what’s best for me? Or maybe you fall in line with a thought like - what did I do last night and why did I make the choices I did? Perhaps you experience a feeling of shame or guilt that can only be described as deflating, crushing, or heavy. With this feeling you might have thoughts that you are not good enough or not worthy of friendships, wellbeing, or life itself. Do you find yourself pushing people away that care about you, leaning on unhealthy coping methods, or spending more and more time alone?

Are you tired of trying the same things over and over again and getting no where? Does time with your partner seem impossible, and bickering is the common way of communicating? Do you want to be the dream team and feel more like the bad news bears? Or are you a parent who is struggling to have conversations with your child/teen? We understand that the desire for a secure, solid relationship with effective communication can seem hopeless at times, but let us help you to breathe easy and create the change you want. We see you and hold hope for each of our clients. Change is possible.
