Anxiety Therapists in Norwood, PA

I have a special interest in the family system and how that affects each individual. This includes psychotherapeutic treatment of couples, parents and their children. My goal going into each session with my clients is to help them feel, think and act more positively and have an overall improved quality of life than when they originally came to see me. The therapeutic relationship is one of the most important things when engaging in the counseling process which means my primary focus is to aid my clients in handling stress and daily challenges. It can be difficult but with my support it is absolutely attainable.

I have worked in mental health/social work for over 15 years. I am a problem solver and advocate by nature. I specialize in life transitions (including but not limited to graduating, getting married, having a child, changing careers), depression, anxiety and trauma. I am a cognitive behavior therapist by training. I work with individuals to identify thoughts and behaviors that are inhibiting their lives and to restructure these thoughts to be more beneficial. The ultimate goal is to find more helpful ways of thinking so you can live with more ease and happiness.

I'm a clinical psychologist with over 15 years of experience providing assessment and psychotherapy for children, adolescents, young adults, and their families. I specialize in the evidence-based treatment of anxiety, OCD, body-focused repetitive behaviors (e.g., hair-pulling, skin-picking), tic disorders, and related concerns among youth, as well as supporting parents through parenting challenges and stress. I am based in the greater Philadelphia region and currently provide telehealth services to Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware residents.

Do you every feel overwhelmed, sad, anxious, or have low self-esteem? Does it affect the relationships around you? I help teens and adults work on strengthening relationships, emotional regulation as well as enhancing social/coping skills. We will work together through this journey of overcoming barriers and empowering yourself in making positive changes. We will use a humanistic approach to therapy that focuses on you as a person and how we can maximize your potential. Together we can build a good therapeutic relationship, identify barriers, and learn new skills/develop a treatment journey that works best for you.

An ideal client for me is someone who has difficulty managing their emotions, engages in frequent negative thinking, and has trouble communicating their needs with family and friends. They want to decrease their anxious or depressive behaviors but have little knowledge of how to begin regulating their emotions.

“Don’t be ashamed of your story, it will inspire others.” Taking the first step toward therapy can be a difficult decision, but you are not alone. I offer a person centered approach to help you understand your own story. Therapy enhances resilience and strength for working through any life experience.

I believe that part of the human condition is to sometimes feel stuck, and I take great pride in being able to help clients in becoming more self-aware and prepared to take on challenges the world offers. By creating a safe and supportive atmosphere, I aim to help individuals and families work through communication struggles and foster a healthy sense of connection. I believe the best therapy works by exploring presenting problems and also helping people take concrete/measurable action to create positive change in their lives. Fundamentally, I hope to help people find their place in the world and function successfully in it.

I have also earned a Masters in Divinity where I have received a solid knowledge of pastoral care and Christian counseling. My focus is on the whole person, body, soul and spirit.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing psychotherapy in Pennsylvania. I am based in Chester County and have worked in the area for over a decade. I’ve worked with people from all walks of life and, although we all have differences, one thing that connects us is our need to feel supported and heard while going through periods of change and transition. As a psychotherapist my specialties include anxiety and depressive disorders, healing from trauma/ PTSD including working with survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault, and women’s health with a focus on perinatal and maternal mental health.

Do you struggle with self-esteem issues and want to be more confident? Are you dealing with a major depressive disorder and have poor sleep & hygiene? Do you want a better life so you can keep your job and have a thriving life? I can help you identify where negative thoughts about yourself and your identity stem from. We will work on identifying negative thoughts and stress triggers. We will review what interventions have worked and have not worked for your mental health. I provide psychoeducation & may give some mini exercises, such as using positive affirmations, coming up with a nighttime routine, & relaxation techniques.

I am a licensed professional counselor with experience working with individuals to help them with depression, anxiety, trauma, addiction, relationships, and interpersonal issues across their life. I mainly work with individuals, one-on-one, but have worked with couples and families, and troubled populations like youth on probation. My goal is to help individuals find a balance in their life where they are able to reduce their mental health stress/impact, and their overall life stress, by establishing and implementing healthy balance, coping skills, and boundaries in their life to improve not only their life, but their sense of self.

Are you dealing with anxiety, depression, and ADHD symptoms that are exacerbated by external life circumstances? Do you want to understand your emotions and learn how to cope with them? My ideal client is seeking support and wants to begin the journey of improving their mental health. The client may have short-term or long-term goals but needs support to achieve them. The client might also want to improve their self-esteem through therapeutic work. Working with a strengths-based, trauma-informed, person-centered eclectic approach can help clients feel supported, develop coping skills, and improve self-esteem.

I provide support to college students & adults in the areas of anxiety, grief, life transitions, postpartum anxiety, betrayal trauma, teen trauma, and being the adult child of immigrants. I also provide support to couples in the areas of communication, premarital, pre-engagement, and pre-cohabitation. I've worked with various populations & present issues/concerns, thus garnering my areas of specialty. Being a 1.5-generation immigrant has afforded me firsthand experience/knowledge of the difficulties and challenges that children of immigrants may face. My specialty areas in no way limits my ability to work with a variety of clients.
