Find a Therapist in Lansdowne, Pennsylvania.

I utilize both cognitive behavioral & psychodynamic techniques to not only alleviate present symptoms but to begin identifying & resolving the underlying cause. Much like physical pain, which can often be addressed with medication, it is critical to understand & attend to what is causing the pain. This process involves exploring both the present & the past to recognize how different patterns & coping strategies developed as well as how they may be altered, creating a more healthful life. Some individuals come briefly & focus on a specific concern & others longer term to more deeply explore themselves & their patterns. There's no set way to do this. It's about what you need & where you are.

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.

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.

Making the initial call is perhaps to worst part. But once your appointment is set, you will immediately experience relief. Deciding to seek help is in fact, a smart and courageous act. Therapy can be painful, but at least it doesn't require the use of sharp objects. In order to get well, you must face your fears, and accept the truth, no matter how ugly it may seem. And at last, you had the courage to connect with another human, crawl out from your hiding spot, and at last face the problem, be it embedded in past pain, or caused by a current crisis. Thank you for reaching out! We can now begin addressing and resolving whatever it was that's been holding you hostage for so long.
