“Welcome in. I’m glad you’re here.”
Reaching out for therapy takes courage.You don’t have to carry it all alone. Many of my clients come to me feeling overwhelmed maybe with racing thoughts, low self-esteem, or the weight of grief and trauma. Together, we slow things down, create space for your emotions, and begin to uncover new ways of coping and connecting.
In our work, I’ll meet you with empathy, curiosity, and respect. I believe you are the expert of your own life, and my role is to help you notice the patterns and signals your mind and body are sending so you can move toward healing and growth. I draw from Internal Family Systems (IFS), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and mindfulness-based practices to help you honor all parts of yourself and align your life with your values.
I also enjoy weaving in creative and somatic practices that are unique to your own passions and interests. Do you feel most connected to art? Does music help you describe how you’re feeling? Do you find that being in touch with your body through exercise helps you to work through difficult feelings? We can bring that into our work together to deepen resilience and self-expression.
Whether we are working through anxiety, depression, trauma, or life transitions, my approach is always trauma-informed, paced with care, and designed with you in mind.
Who I Work With:
I support adolescents, adults, and couples. With couples, I use the Gottman Method to strengthen communication, deepen intimacy, and nurture mutual understanding. With individuals, we might focus on easing anxiety, navigating loss, or exploring meaning and purpose. No matter what brings you here, therapy with me is a space to be heard, supported, and understood.
I am available for in-person appointments at our Center City, Philadelphia office, as well as telehealth sessions for those located in Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
You can schedule an appointment with me by using our online portal at any time, or by emailing info@abetterlifetherapy.com.
My rate per 50 minute session is $120.00
