| Practice Description: |
Counseling can help you identify and face the most prominent sources of your anxiety, frustration or stress . Is the thought of seeking help, adding to your present concerns ? Please dial the confidential (610 number ) phone number, click on E-mail symbol, or "contact this therapist" . . . to discuss any questions you may have about the process during a brief, no-cost telephone consultation .
During unsettling times , a psychotherapist 's ability to be fully and authentically present - - actively listening, responding and reassuring - can help you feel less wary about being "in treatment" as you sort through troubling perceptions and pre-occupations, which have had you bouncing back and forth between anxious or depressed moods .
Maybe you have been in treatment several times. . . never having resolved the issues or effecting the changes you hoped to realize. For those of you who have had a first, a second or even a third psychotherapist . . . and perhaps, now, you seek your last !
If once again, you're experiencing a transition in your career or relationship - blocking your ability to "move - on " , you will likely benefit from the inquiry and support counseling & 'Life - Transition' coaching support can provide.
Working with an evidence-based practitioner - your specific therapy goals can be efficiently achieved by adding Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. (CBT) is a brief and targeted format which helps to re-frame and reduce troubling thoughts and feelings which are often at the root of negative attributions. In conjunction with other psychodynamic therapies, CBT can help reduce problems you are experiencing now. . . and re-orient how you respond to everyday experiences. This can measurably reduce the likelihood of future re-occurence.

| Additional Comments: |
Beyond the question of your therapist's training and experience, what may be most important . . . is feeling that you are in a 'safe place' . The assurance of unparalleled confidentialty and your confidence in the collaborative process you and your clinician create are the building blocks of the therapeutic relationship. This is what ultimately drives the achievement of insight, increasing self-confidence and satisfying growth . . . |
