Dialectical Behavior (DBT) Therapists in Gladwyne, PA

I am passionate about helping adolescents and adults (16+) manage anxiety, depression, perinatal/postpartum concerns/fertility issues, emotion dysregulation, increase pleasure and mastery, and feel more confident engaging in their everyday lives. I have intensive training in cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT). I utilize evidence-based treatment approaches such as CBT, DBT, acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and trauma treatments such as prolonged exposure (PE) and cognitive processing therapy (CPT) to help clients live more fulfilling lives, become unstuck, and build a life worth living.

To others it may seem like you've got it all together, but on the inside you're spinning out of control. Panic randomly punches you in the chest, taking your breath away, and you can't focus on anything else other than how to make it stop. You are consumed by trying to keep up with everyone else since they seem to have it all together, but you can barely function through the day. You feel like an awful mom because you are lashing out on your kids and hating the daily monotony instead of "embracing the joy of motherhood." You feel like you are failing your partner because somewhere along this journey you just lost yourself.

I view therapy as a collaborative process and will work with you to identify appropriate goals, customize the treatment plan to fit your needs, and meet you where you are. I can flexibly implement evidence-based treatments to effect real, measurable change in your life based on therapeutic approaches that have known efficacy in the community. One of the most critical pieces of therapy is a strong therapeutic alliance so it is important to me to hear from you about your experience in therapy, what your strengths are and what makes your life worth living.

Pursuing and going to therapy can be uncomfortable, scary, and exhausting. It takes a tremendous amount of courage and willingness. Living with and carrying emotional pain can be lonely and in therapy we will navigate this and work towards healing together. We will process how the past and unconscious resurface in the present causing distress in various areas including family, relationships, work, mental health, etc. As we do this work and build an open and trusting relationship, we can develop insights, bring about change, and further healing.
