Therapists in Montgomery County, PA

Hi! My name is Kristen, and I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with over 15 years of experience helping individuals, couples, and families strengthen their relationships and find deeper connection. My clients come to therapy feeling stressed, overwhelmed, burnt out, and anxious. Many are navigating modern parenting or adjusting to the role of motherhood, looking to improve relationships with partners or children that may feel disconnected or tense, attempting to set healthier boundaries or increase balance at work, working to heal from past pain or trauma, or striving to find greater fulfillment overall.

I believe that everyone deserves to have a therapist. Someone that is safe and non-judgemental to unpack some of the things that may be causing stress, anxiety or even depression. Though it may be tempting to choose someone that will "fix all of your problems", I will challenge you to work together with me in exploring how past and present experiences are currently affecting your overall mood and relationships.

Ryan is a marriage and family therapist who offers individual therapy, couples counseling and family counseling for children, adolescents and adults. With degrees from both Millersville University and Walden University, Ryan has worked in a myriad of treatment setting, most notably and recently working in chronically disadvantaged neighborhoods.

With the understanding that the decision to begin therapy can be a courageous and difficult one, I strive to create a warm and empathetic therapeutic environment with my clients where we can work collaboratively towards your goals. I draw from a range of approaches to explore together how your experiences have shaped you, and to provide guidance while uncovering and adapting patterns and coping strategies that no longer serve you. Through our time together, I hope to help you discover a therapeutic journey towards personal growth that feels supportive and reflective of your needs.

I am dedicated to helping you cope and work to overcome life's inevitable challenges, family / relationship conflict, traumatic and painful circumstances that often result in suffering, distress, anxiety and depression. I strive to provide a supportive space where you can explore more effective ways to deal with your problems, while increasing self-awareness and self-acceptance. I can assist you to process issues related to grief and loss, including the loss of a beloved pet. I have experience working with people from diverse backgrounds and walks of life.

My goal is to create an accepting and non-judgmental space where people feel safe, heard, and understood. I use cognitive behavioral therapy, internal family systems therapy/parts work, and dialectical behavioral therapy skills to work with adults, teens, and children ages 10 and above.

Life is difficult; there is no rule book. I am here to support you to help you learn new coping skills and strategies. I will partner with you so that you can move toward a life of enthusiasm, wholeness, and fulfillment. Have you ever felt like the “other?” I specialize in working with adults and adolescents who have felt like the “other.” Perhaps you may have experienced anxiety or depression, low self-esteem, are an artist or artistic type, are part of the LGBTQ+ community, trans, are a black or brown (person of color), or have felt rejected by your family or religious community.

Are you experiencing life transitions that cause you to wonder if you are living an authentic life? New empty nester wondering "Is this all there is?" or "Who am I now"?Are you experiencing relationship challenges that make you question whether you have lost your identity? Have you given your all to everyone EXCEPT yourself?

Hello and Congratulations! If you are reading this you have already taken the first step towards self discovery. Which is a pretty big deal and should be celebrated. Helping is my profession and I will be there for you whether you need to add structure to your day or just need a thoughtful ear. Goals are important but sometimes we don't even know where to start. Well, that's why I'm here. I value collaboration, connection, and fun! I make sure the people I serve are seen as real life humans and encourage them to explore parts of themselves they did not even know they had access too.

With 24 years of experience as a practicing clinical psychologist, I use a combination of psychodynamic, relational and cognitive behavioral strategies to increase self-awareness and insight, and to develop and strengthen coping strategies and problem solving skills among my adolescent and adult clients. Utilizing a methodologically integrated approach, my aim is to help clients identify, understand and overcome obstacles to well-being and success in the domains of relationships, family, work and school.

“I love my therapist, but we’ve hit a plateau,” potential clients often say when reaching out to me. Or they’re tired of being treated like they’re broken. If you’ve spent years in therapy and are ready to go deeper and experience profound shifts and lasting change, try mindfulness-based, somatic (body-mind) psychotherapy and inner parts work. In short time, most new clients say, “Wow, that was very different from what I expected!”—in a positive way. If you’re a highly sensitive person (HSP), empath, or old soul yearning to be truly understood and are ready to process more deeply and talk and analyze less, welcome!

Welcome. Breathe. The struggles you are having right now make sense, given your biology, your backstory, the social context you grew up in, and your current experiences. I am passionate about helping individuals understand their cognitive, relational, emotional and academic/vocational strengths and weaknesses, gain access to needed supports, and learn how to thrive in a world that might not seem to fit with h ow their brain operates. Regardless of what you have been through and are going through, you are resilient and can rise from this moment.

I offer empathic therapy with a focus on trauma informed practices. My approach is collaborative and psychodynamic, and driven by the unique needs of each individual client. My specialty is helping my clients through the treatment of trauma and history of trauma, relational challenges, and transitional life events.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I am here to help out with all your therapeutic needs. I Also DO Affordable Psychological Evaluations to help determine what is going on and what you need to work on.

Welcome. I am a licensed psychologist with over thirty years of having the privilege of helping others. I can offer you a goal-oriented, compassionate, and non-judgmental voice, as you seek relief from your distress. I work with a wide range of people and have a particular interest in couples counseling; pre-marital through divorce.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor that follows a strength-based, client-centered approach. As a therapist, I believe it is important to be genuine in all aspects, while being able to utilize an eclectic approach in order to fit the needs of those seeking guidance. After graduating from Marywood University with a masters degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, I worked in both outpatient and inpatient settings and have gained experience working with those who struggle with anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, chemical dependency, grief and loss, self-esteem, assertiveness, and relationships (couples families etc).

I am accepting clients ranging from fourteen years of age and older. I work with individuals, families, and couples. Although I have experience treating an eclectic range of concerns, ideally, my clients may be facing symptoms of anxiety, depression, substance misuse, and PTSD. I have great expertise in treating dually-diagnosed clients, substance misuse, and mental health. The stress and hardships that come with these issues are often too much to handle on your own; please let me help.
