Psychodynamic Therapists in Breinigsville, PA

At some point, many people feel off-track, and I enjoy helping people develop or re-establish the life and relationships they seek for themselves. I use a psychodynamic, insight-oriented approach, meaning that we will explore the ways in which your experiences have shaped you into the person you are today including how these experiences have contributed to your current difficulties.

So many of us struggle in life, but the worst part is, we struggle in silence. I’m here to listen to whatever part of your story you want to share, whether it’s your past, your present or everything in between. I hope through listening I can help guide you to what you already know within yourself, but might not be able to see right now. Wherever you are in your journey in life, I’d like to help you through the journey.

If you're looking for fluff free, no nonsense counseling, reach out to me. It's all too easy to lose touch with the things we stand for, as well as with the things that mean most to us. You were whole at one point, which means a path to sanity exists that is waiting to be rediscovered. Yet these behaviors holding you back have been heavily reinforced over time. The change ahead is not going to be easy or comfortable, but you don't have to face it alone. Past clients have told me that my ability to break down situations and clearly explain relational dynamics helped them to gain new insight into their histories and functioning.
