Find a Therapist in Colwyn, Pennsylvania.

Psychotherapy can help you understand the hidden emotions which affect your everyday thoughts and behaviors. I can help you recognize the underlying fears and motives which drive you to repeat the same mistakes over and over again. Whether your pain is rooted in a difficult past, unhealthy relationships or lifelong mental health struggles, healing is possible. I will help you recognize unhealthy patterns that keep repeating themselves in your life, robbing you of closeness with others and inner peace. Then you will be able to grow toward thinking and feeling in new ways and relating to others differently. You don't have to stay stuck in the same painful place; there is hope.

With over 30 years' experience as a psychotherapist, I have developed a variety of tools to successfully deal with a wide range of psychological issues. Whether you suffer from depression, low self-esteem, anxiety, panic attacks, or other challenges, together we work to design a program that fits your needs, empowering you to create a life of greater peace and contentment.

Are you feeling hurt, overwhelmed, stuck or lost. Psychotherapy can help. My approach to therapy is primarily psychodynamic which means that together we will seek to understand how, over time, you have learned to perceive yourself, others and the world. I will integrate complementary therapies such as Gestalt, Existential, Cognitive-Behavioral when appropriate as we work together to unearth long standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a full and meaningful life. With clients working through trauma, I provide safe anchors to help you regain a sense of empowerment and balance.

Therapy is designed to be a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can focus on your own needs, values, and priorities. In addition to listening, offering guidance, and responding with empathy, I partner with my clients to set goals for our work, explore what's been helpful before (and what hasn't been), provide resources to reinforce new skills, and share information to help you better understand yourself and your unique needs. Therapy clients who work with me gain practical skills that improve their lives, and they feel more empowered to solve problems.

If you are upset or stuck our work together will give you practical tools to have control over your anxiety, depression or anger and not have it ruin your life. You will get the support you need to use the tools that you will learn from our work together. If you problem is deep rooted you will understand where it came from and most importantly what to do about the wounds that you have suffered in your life.

Congratulations on taking the first daring and potentially wonderful steps into the world of healing through psychotherapy. My counseling practices are based on those techniques that are evidence based and proven to be effective from the clinical research literature. Specifically, I employ cognitive beahvioral therapy techniques (CBT) in helping my clients move past issues of anxiety, depression, and relationship issues. I strive to provide therapy in a very comfortable, safe, and judgement free environment.

Our positive and empowering therapeutic approach lets you build new tools for living, and create the life you want to live. Yes, you can change your world.

My approach to psychotherapy is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to each client’s unique needs. I focus on creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Together, we identify patterns, set meaningful goals, and develop practical skills to navigate life’s challenges. I draw on evidence-based strategies while honoring each person’s strengths and experiences, helping clients build self-awareness, resilience, and the tools they need to create lasting positive change.

I use psychotherapy to help individuals address underlying sources of ongoing painful problems such as anxiety, depression, anger, and chronic problematic relationship patterns. This may include exploring past family dynamics and significant childhood events that have affected development. Increased understanding of the past can often lead to improvement in the present. I recommend tackling problems at their source because this allows the possibility of more permanent and deeper healing than can be achieved by simply addressing symptoms. As past events are gradually processed and resolved, we often feel that an emotional burden has been lifted; we just plain feel better!

Clients will get a better understanding of how their current behaviors/relationships are influenced by their past family, school, work, and history. I provide a safe environment for clients to examine if and how they are going to change to better their lives and increase their level of happiness. I utilize a variety of treatment methods and give challenging "assignments" to help clients realize their full potential and practice skills taught in sessions. The trusting relationship I build with a client in therapy is my best therapeutic tool as clients can then safely explore topic "usually" uncomfortable in the outside world.
