Grief Therapists in Kennett Square, PA

I provide individual therapy for mental health needs and adjustment disorders. Depression, anxiety, addictions and eating disorders are typical mental health issues of my clients. I also treat adjustment issues such as grief/loss, relationship/divorce/marital, work/career, and body image/weight.

My focus is assisting clients in finding their own solutions. My role is to help uncover strengths and protective factors while building the necessary coping skills required to move through life's most significant challenges. Trauma, grief, sadness, confusion, worry and addiction are the most common reasons why people reach out for help. After listening and identifying issues together, the therapeutic relationship will begin to build and in that safe and trusting space support will be created. We will then strategize and set goals, ultimately developing a road map for greater happiness, a peaceful mind and a healthier life.

I have 20 years of experience working with children, adolescents, and adults. I treat individuals, families, and couples. My treatment approach is a blend of DBT, CBT, and ACT. Clients describe me as sensitive, warm, and encouraging and I truly love what I do. Life can be extremely stressful and difficult to navigate at times. I pride myself in taking the time to understand the nature of someone's struggles and making sure his/her goals are addressed. I am also a trained equine assisted psychotherapist. At times, horses can be used to help uncover underlying problems and concerns as well as to teach coping skills.

Being an adult, a parent, child and teenager comes with too many expectations, responsibilities, and demands. You may feel overwhelmed, saddened with thoughts of low self-worth, fearful, on edge, avoidant, and easily frustrated and angered. You want to feel confident, true to yourself, and ultimately the best version of you. I can help you to develop a plan that will allow you to grow, flourish, and live optimally. You deserve to be happy, feel confident, and to be your authentic self.

I enjoy working with teens, adults of all ages, and couples who experience anxiety, depression, eating disorders, grief, identity issues, impulsivity, life transition, panic, perfectionism, self compassion concerns, sensory issues, stress and/or trauma. My ideal client is open to pushing themselves past their comfort zone to take their lives from being comfortably numb to flourishing. My ideal client is ready to do the work necessary to improve their lives and expect positive results that come from doing introspective work. My Mission is to help my clients reach their fullest potential and become the best people they can be.

Maybe you have been considering trying out therapy for some time. Reaching out for help can be intimidating and scary. It is normal to feel uncertain about therapy and what may be the next best step. I focus on meeting the client where they are in their journey to create an environment that provides empathy, humor, comfort, safety, validation, and non-judgment. I believe that therapy is all about the relationship between the therapist and client. We will work together to build a safe confidential space that allows you to address the concerns that brought you to seek therapy.

I welcome clients who are grappling with grief, life transitions, identity explorations, and issues of meaning and purpose. Much of my experience has been assisting students with the adjustment into and out of college and graduate school. I also have experience working with people who are navigating the challenges of mid-life and/or transitions into older adulthood. A particular interest of mine is the adjustment to parenthood. I aim to help clients face both the losses and opportunities that transitions hold, in order to deepen their ability to be fully present to their life. My goal is to help build resilience and joy.

I am pre-licensed counselor working with clients seeking to change unhealthy life-style patterns attributing to feeling disconnected from intentions, core values, beliefs, character & self. Patterns and experiences may include anxiety, trauma, depression, relational and other adjustment concerns. The approaches used integrate holistic modalities with existing evidenced-based treatments & prior successes to create the client's fully equipped toolbox. These resources offer an empowering, non-judgmental approach toward sustained self-care removing the stigma of mental health being separate from body & spirit for whole self-wellness.

Are you feeling stressed, anxious or depressed? You are not alone & there is hope! Together we can identify: how you are feeling, what is contributing to your thoughts and feelings and a list of strategies to enhance resilience, improve relationships and feel an increased sense of fulfillment. If you are experiencing life challenges, adjustment, loss, intrapersonal or relationship issues impacting your mood, thinking or behavior, you are in the right place. You can begin a new journey of implementing healthy coping skills and moving toward peace, happiness, self-acceptance and more contentment.
