Hoarding Therapists in Gibsonia, PA

I am a Board Certified Hypnotist and Coach with years of experience. I believe in a holistic approach,meaning that mind, body, and spirit all play into our well-being. Seeking help can feel uncomfortable not only to those who have never sought it before, but also to those who have had negative experiences. I adapt my approach to each individual’s unique situation. I strive to provide a comfortable, confidential, safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space; where you will not simply "learn coping skills", but will learn how to work through stresses and problems to facilitate long-lasting change. My goal is to help you help yourself!

NOW OFFERING ART THERAPY. Many people have had negative experiences with counseling, making them hesitant to seek help again. We are especially skilled at working with those who are uncomfortable with the idea of therapy. Clients have described us as “Therapists for people who don’t like therapy”. We try to understand people on an individual level & adapt our skills to meet their needs. Our goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, & nonjudgmental atmosphere. Therapy should not be simply "learning coping skills", to deal with negative feelings, it should involve working to root of the problem to facilitate long-lasting change.

You're tired of feeling like your experiences are minimized and being told you're "using it as an excuse." You're mentally and physically exhausted from always feeling "other". You want to FINALLY be able to open up and talk about ALL of the pieces of your life because you can't continue carrying all of this shit around, but you're terrified of being judged. You know you engage in unhealthy patterns of behavior and self-talk, but you just can't seem to stop. You have "checked off the box" that you're "in therapy" in the past, but you need to do something different this time.

I am currently accepting new clients in-person in my welcoming office environment and via telehealth/video appointments. In my career as a licensed professional counselor, I have enjoyed and grown from my experiences providing individual, couples, and family therapy, school-based therapy, mobile therapy, behavior consultation, and social service coordination. These have fostered my capacity to help each client to access and benefit from the supports within their lives and communities and to build on their own unique strengths. Together we will embark on a course of healing that best meets your needs and goals.

Fred Rogers says, "Anything that's human is mentionable, and anything that is mentionable can be more manageable. When we talk about our feelings, they become less overwhelming, less upsetting, and less scary." I would love to work with you if you are ready to make your problems mentionable, and together we can work towards making them manageable.

Are you waking up in the morning thinking "This is not what I signed up for!" Do you feel overwhelmed or anxious? Are you struggling coming to terms with a traumatic event or wrestling with where life has put you? Perhaps you are looking for a deeper sense of self and want to experience growth towards a life that feels authentic. My love for therapy grew out of the idea that our experiences shape our beliefs about ourselves and others. Sometimes these beliefs are helpful... and sometimes not. One of the goals of therapy can be to recognize your own beliefs and understand how they impact your thoughts and feelings.
