Sleep or Insomnia Therapists in Narberth, PA

Are you struggling with emotional challenges or symptoms of anxiety or depression? Maybe you are experiencing family conflict or perhaps you are dealing with grief or loss. I have specialized training in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) - an approach that offers concrete tools you can use to cultivate greater happiness and resolve conflict in more effective ways. I work with individuals and also with families to help them create new and positive ways of relating to each other and solving problems together.

I believe that therapy can result in meaningful and long lasting changes, as long as an individual is provided with a trusting, supportive, and non-judgmental environment that will allow one to identify, discuss, and resolve one's current difficulties or problems. My clients tell me that they find it very easy to talk to me about difficult and sensitive matters, and that they feel calm and comfortable in my presence.We will work together to identify stressors and/or relationships that are contributing to your symptoms, and develop coping strategies to help you manage these problems more effectively.

I am a licensed psychologist who enjoys working with all different kinds of people. I like to work on what gets in the way of optimum mental health. Much of my practice in the past almost thirty years has focused on relationships of all kinds, depression, self-esteem, conflict resolution, better communication, adult children of alcoholics, parenting, anxiety, chronic illness, addictions, and sexual abuse. I believe our work doesn't just happen in our therapy hour, but between sessions as well. I am committed to psychotherapy and helping people to change in a supportive atmosphere.

Life is not easy and I believe most people would benefit from someone impartial to help navigate that uneasiness. I use a holistic approach to help individuals, couples and families with depression, anxiety, PTSD, substance use, stress, ADHD and a myriad of other issues and conditions. The goal of my practice is to create a collaborative relationship where people can identify goals, reduce stress, and find peace. My practice is designed to assist people in all circumstances: whether you need to address something that happened years ago, a recent life event, or you just want guidance on living your best life.

As a licensed psychologist, my goal is to help empower you to transform your life in the ways you desire. Therapy works by helping you develop new understandings about yourself, and new strategies for handling your emotions, thoughts, and behavior. The fact that you are considering therapy means that you have already taken the first, and perhaps most important step. Ultimately, therapy can enhance your self esteem, connectedness to others, effectiveness in your life, and happiness.

Before you can even grab your coffee the intrusive thoughts and feelings flood in. You struggle to not engage with the negative "What if..." questions that feel like an endless loop in your mind. The need to do compulsions and safety behaviors is on repeat throughout your day. Other people seem connected to their life, moving through it naturally and freely..... You want that too. I hear you! I work with women to help them let go of the doubt and find peace & contentment in their life. I want you to learn how to stop answering the negative "what if..." questions and lean into your values-filled life instead!

As a postdoctoral fellow at Beck Institute for Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), I work under the license and supervision of the expert clinicians on staff. I prioritize collaboration, compassion, and genuineness in the therapeutic relationship to accomplish therapeutic goals. I use CBT interventions and incorporate motivational interviewing and mindfulness in my work with clients. CBT is a time-sensitive, structured, present-oriented form of talk therapy that has been scientifically tested and found to be effective for the treatment of many different physical and mental health issues.

I know that change is hard and requires courage, which is why I provide a safe, non-judgmental, and open space to discuss dreams, emotions and goals. I believe that people are resilient and that the work of a therapist is to assist clients in achievement of emotional independence. I help people gain insight into thoughts and feelings, within a supportive relationship, so that they can feel empowered to heal. Through expression, awareness, and accountability individuals connect with themselves, manifest growth and enact change in their lives.
