Life Coaching Therapists in Havertown, PA

As a counselor, I have developed a specialty in working with clients who have experienced trauma in their lives. I am a certified Trauma Therapist and I use a variety of techniques including EMDR, CBT and various Mindfulness skills and practices. Professionally, I work hard to continue to develop my skills as a counselor through my work with clients, regularly attending professional development classes and through interactions with colleagues.

While I work with clients on all types of typical issues (such as anxiety, life and work stress, etc.), I primarily specialize in all things having to do with relationships. I am the author of the book "Irritating the Ones You Love- the Down and Dirty Guide to Better Relationships." I have helped hundreds of couples resolve conflicts and improve the happiness and quality of their relationships. For those who are still looking for the love of their life, I offer unique tools in helping people successfully negotiate the dating process and find lasting love.

I work in an honest and accountable environment, offering the space to embrace chaos and keep moving forward.

I am devoted to enacting positive change by connecting with, supporting, and empowering individuals. Throughout my journey, I have been drawn to people, felt the impact of the human experience, and have learned many lessons along the way. I consider myself a student of life, constantly learning from experiences and people; as I continue to draw breath, I will continue to learn. Perhaps the most poignant lesson I have learned thus far, is each person has the inherent power to create and live the life of his/her choosing. Your perfect life can only be designed by you.

Change can be really, really hard. We can get so stuck in routines and behaviors that prove to be ineffective for us, yet it can be hard to recognize on our own. Therapy is useful in that it allows us to look inward while considering what change is necessary to have a more purposeful, satisfying life.

I have been helping individuals reach their personal goals through counseling for over 25 years. I base my work on the belief that every human being has the ability to face challenges and emerge from them with greater strength, to create and sustain meaningful relationships, and to craft a unique life, one that is meaningful, satisfying, and consistent with personal values. I provide support for individuals to recognize and fully experience their own painful issues, then help them build the strength and strategies necessary to confront those issues directly and create solutions to effect lasting change.

I have been treating marital issues and anger issues in Ardmore since 1983.

I use cognitive behavioral therapy to help my clients with marriage and relationship problems, depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and other issues. I take a proactive, holistic approach to effect changes not only in thinking but in behaviors, in order to promote increased well-being, contentment, and self esteem.

Sometimes we experience life's hardships, and do not know how to face them. Instead, we avoid talking or thinking about them. Traumas may occur in our childhood, in our relationships, or during significant losses. Unfortunately, the effects of past experiences are felt in current relationships, on the job, or in the body. In order to move forward in our lives, I believe that gradually telling the story of painful life events with a professional is healing. Once you have gradually told me about your pain, we can then work together to develop ways of coping and moving forward.

Are you feeling like the happiness, peace of mind, and professional success which you desire is consistently out of your grasp? My typical client knows that something in their life is not working, and they are ready to seek out meaningful change. Making the first step to reach out and pursue support is often the most difficult step. The good news is that psychotherapy and professional coaching are powerful tools for creating lasting change; for those ready to make the leap.

How would you feel if you were truly connected to your authentic self and your desires, knowing that all of this is possible for you. Getting there is actually simple but not necessarily easy. That's where I can help.

Life can be challenging at any age and talking with a therapist in a supportive environment can help.

My clients tell me that they feel comfortable talking with me and that my active listening style helps them discover solutions that work best for them.
