Adults Therapists in New Hope, PA

"Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a field. I'll meet you there." -Rumi.... This is the spirit of "mindful psychotherapy" which meets the client where he or she is. My aim is to promote healing with an eclectic approach to treatment within an environment of compassionate "presence". By building strong, safe and trusting therapeutic relationship and applying a treatment strategy appropriate for the given client, significant healing change can manifest.

Personal peace starts with a shift in perspective. There is nothing wrong with you. Your life is designed to help you, not block you, in developing confidence, loving boundaries and an open heart. Our work, including elements of forgiveness, grief and personal empowerment, gives you permission to have compassion and support for yourself first, no matter what messages the world and your childhood have trained you to believe. Life happens FOR us, not TO us. I do understand, I have tools to help and I am committed to your peace of mind.

Taking the first step to talk to a therapist can be overwhelming and frightening. It takes strength and courage, but it can be life changing. My goal is to create a safe, caring and nonjudgemental space for clients to be heard and understood. It is my privilege to work with individuals and couples to instill hope, empowerment, and support personal growth. Communicating feelings in a safe environment promotes healing through expression, which often leads to insight into self and more meaningful connections with others. Taking the first step is the most difficult step.

I am a licensed psychologist in Doylestown, PA who creates a warm, compassionate and supportive space where you are empowered to move in new directions. As a strengths oriented psychologist who focuses on human resiliency, I work with you to overcome obstacles and develop proactive strategies to reach your goals. Change is possible.

Shame dies when stories are told in safe places. Your story matters. Experiencing trauma can make us feel alone, ashamed, & burdened with self-doubt. When you take the brave step toward therapy and healing, you no longer have to do that alone. I work to hold a safe space so that each person who comes to me is able to openly share their story while learning how to access the tools to heal all wounds that they carry. I use Internal Family Systems as an approach to work on the root of pain and to help clients heal. I am certified in DBT therapy to help individuals regulate their emotions and build skills to navigate relationships.

Being in private practice for 29 years as a psychotherapist/coach my areas of expertise include: pre/postpartum depression adjustment support, blended family adjustment, parenting support, co-dependency, panic/anxiety disorders, eating disorders, and depression.

Finding a caring, dedicated therapist to help you with your psychological or physical difficulties is important. Sessions are 1 to 2 hours, as determined by what you want and need. Some specialized sessions, e.g. EMDR, are 1 1/2 hours. Your time and energy are valuable, and while there are times when talking is helpful, I am always results-focused using effective collaborative actions and solutions that will help you resolve your problem(s).

Thank you for your interest in our counseling services! We bring a personable, down-to-earth, insightful and inviting approach to our work with individuals, couples and families. We value helping people move from "feeling stuck" in unhealthy relational patterns to experiencing greater freedom in their personal lives and relationships. Clients benefit from setting aside focused time to understand what drives these patterns via the lens of attachment needs. Thinking through and verbalizing new and different ways to engage in healthy relationships within the context of a safe, supportive and therapeutic environment can be invaluable.

Are you in transition? Feeling stuck in your life or relationship? Have your usual coping strategies become ineffective, leaving you feeling anxious, fearful, depressed or angry?

It is truly a privilege to be invited into the lives of others during a therapy session.
