Dialectical Behavior (DBT) Therapists in Upper Dublin, PA

Currently accepting new clients in PA only. I believe that "it's the connection that heals." To me, it's important to build trust and safety in my work with clients- and also to be genuine! I work with clients facing a wide variety of issues from stress, anxiety, and depression to trauma, mood regulation, identity, family issues, and more. When I work with clients, I meet them where they're at, judgement-free. My clients decide on their own therapy goals, so you are in charge of the direction we take in therapy. Feedback is great! I like to be my real self in therapy with clients, and I hope that encourages you to do the same.

Thank you for checking out my profile. I primarily work with adults and adolescents, but occasionally work with children. My focus is on addictions, mood disorders, or personality disorders. Because of the high rate of trauma with addictions and personality disorders, I offer trauma informed care and best practices to all of my clients. For over 10 years I have run an adolescent Dialectic Behavior Therapy (DBT) group for adolescents and young adults who self harm or have self destructive behaviors. Finally, I offer crisis and health and wellness seminars to local businesses in need.

I believe that every person deserves someone in their corner; someone to listen and truly hear what they’re going through. All it takes is one person to believe in you and your ability to grow. With that in mind, I bring compassion, understanding, and energy when joining with clients to build strategies for self-regulation, independence, and healthy relationships. I have a keen understanding of the issues and pressures faced by youth and young adults today in an ever-changing world.

There are many things in life that we cannot control, but wellness lies in how we react to our emotions and the difficult situations we encounter. I work with clients to separate the uncontrollable from the controllable, and provide them with the tools to sit in the discomfort of challenging emotions. I aim to provide a safe space in which clients feel comfortable enough to make changes in their lives for the better. I have worked with clients of all ages, but have the most experience working with neurodivergent trans adolescents struggling with anxiety and mood disorders as well as navigating their gender expression and identity.

Life can feel overwhelming, especially during big changes or when trying to make sense of everything around you. Whether you're facing challenges at school, navigating relationships, or dealing with family changes, it’s normal to feel unsure or anxious. But when these feelings stick around, they can leave you feeling stuck, disconnected, or overwhelmed. I’m here to help you make sense of it all and move forward with confidence and clarity.

Hello! I am a licensed Social Worker in Pennsylvania and received my Masters degree in Social Work from West Chester University. I am passionate about working with clients in making sense of their life experiences and behaviors and guide them to gain confidence in their innate wisdom. In therapy we will work to promote self-awareness, develop healthy coping skills, improve relationships, and ultimately, live with passion, purpose, and balance. I specialize in treating adults struggling with trauma, betrayal trauma for partners impacted by infidelity and compulsive sexual behavior, anxiety, depression, and emotion dysregulation.

I believe one of the most courageous things you can do is begin to understand your own story. It can be scary to open up about your experiences, especially to a stranger. I want to break the mental health stigma by creating a safe and comfortable space to talk about your life experiences through providing authenticity, compassion, acceptance and humor! Getting a better understanding of your story and life experiences will help identify what may be keeping you from moving forward and will allow us to work together to get you on the path to living the life you want.

You’re counting every calorie, overcompensating with exercise, and feeling guilt and shame after eating sweets alone. Social events are hard because menus don’t fit your strict meal plan.

You deserve to find peace with food, enjoy eating without guilt, and achieve true self-acceptance. My approach focuses on helping you reconnect with your body and trust your inner wisdom.
