Parenting Therapists in Pottstown, PA

As a counselor, I have always been aware of the courage and openness a client needs to be able to seek support and engage in counseling services. I also understand how difficult it is to make therapeutic changes in one's life. I am humbled to be privileged to learn about a client's intimate struggles, and I take the depth of that relationship of respect, privacy, boundaries, and expectations very seriously. My ideal client is anyone open to counseling, receiving feedback, and willing to work together on developing action steps towards change and personal growth.

My ideal client struggles with Anxiety, Depression, Eating Disorders, Trauma, and/or related conditions. They are motivated for change or at least open to the possibility of change. They are open to feedback and willing to lean into the therapeutic process. They do not need to have clear goals for the therapeutic process right away but are willing to work to identify these goals in the treatment process. They would want to improve their life in some way, or even just their relationship with themselves.

Whether you are coming to therapy for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship issues, a life change, or just a general sense of unease, facing these issues can be scary. Healing isn’t easy because it involves confronting our pain and hurts. Healing can also be full of joy, hope, connection, and freedom as we experience new possibilities of being and relating. My approach is warm, relational, and integrative. I strive to offer a space where you can feel safe enough to look inward – to gently and compassionately welcome all parts of yourself with less judgment and shame.

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.

Mental health, addiction, and chronic illness all have something in common. They can be debilitating and create cyclical habits that are difficult to break. I work with motivated individuals who are willing to make a change in their lives for the better, examine their past and present experiences and feelings, and work to find healthier ways to cope.

My career as a marriage and family therapist has been dedicated to work with families; namely couples and children. A systemic lens of the world takes into account absolutely everything. I see you as more than just a person, you are part of a larger fabric; the family you were born into and as well as the one you make as an adult. This can include, but is not limited to, partnerships and marriage, friendships, work and career, cultural identity, personal traditions and individual hobbies. Whatever makes you who you are is a part of treatment.

Girls, don't let your anxiety get the best of you! I help teen girls and young adults understand and manage their anxiety in a way that helps them feel empowered, gain confidence to solve their own problems, and make good decisions. It is time to stop feeling overwhelmed with life. I can help with over thinking, worrying about what others are thinking of you, feeling socially isolated/difficulties with friends, self-esteem, and social/school anxiety as well as the stress that comes from the expectations you feel from yourself and others. I also have Coaching Packages helping with the Transition to College and Adulting.

When I work with a client, my hope is that the individual will experience a sense of understanding and hopefulness for change in their present situation. I believe that when an individual feels that the clinician is truly invested in "walking with" the "whole person" on their journey, the client will gain a new perspective on their movement in life. When I see individuals who are struggling with anxiety and/or depression, relational concerns, life stressors, and/or loss and transition issues, my main focus is to support the client in developing a hopefulness that positive change is possible.

Everything's an argument, or you don’t talk at all. You feel like business partners who live together. “I’m not appreciated, we never do anything together, and you don’t listen to me!” Sound familiar? The changes happened slowly, but now the connection between you is gone. There was a time when you used to share everything, now you barely talk at all. You’ve become used to simply existing near each other. You wake up sad and lonely, asking yourself, “Why are we even still together?” You’re so tired, tired of thinking, and tired of trying. You’re sick of wondering if it’s time to give up and move on.

Whether it’s your first time in therapy or your hundredth, finding a therapist can be nerve racking. That’s why I prioritize building a solid working relationship built on trust. My identity as a therapist is best defined by my authenticity and nonjudgmental stance. I’m not afraid to embrace my client’s sense of humor, interests, strengths, and culture while also helping them build the courage to confront their maladaptive thoughts and behaviors. I try and meet you wherever you’re at and help you develop the insight and skills so that you can reach your goals and realize your potential.

People need different things in their lives and when they come to therapy they can expect a calm, quiet atmosphere and a place where they can express themselves in ways that they may have never felt safe enough to do so.
