Therapists in Lancaster, PA

I have been a practicing therapist for over 30 years, so I have dealt with all kinds of problems and issues that people come in, seeking help with. My approach is eclectic and personalized and is based upon the issues you bring, your life situation, and your goals for therapy. I accept most major insurances but if you do not have insurance, or an insurance plan I do not participate in, I have a sliding fee scale and we can make something work for you.

You never expected your marriage would turn out this way. Trust issues, the trauma of betrayal… It’s almost as if you’re married to someone different. No one is sleeping, one of you is under a microscope while the other is a private detective. At the same time, fights have become unproductive; filled with accusations and denials. You’ve invested years into this relationship, and now the thought that this could be the end feels terrifying. Should you stay or call it quits? Neither option looks attractive. The pain is unbearable and you just want it to stop. The infidelity in your marriage has created a true emergency.

I strive to give the individuals, couples and families I work with, personalized care. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), Certified Alcohol & Drug Counselor (CADC) and have extensive training and experience in Gestalt therapy and trauma recovery using EMDR. My professional strengths are helping to better manage depression and anxiety problems. I help couples resolve conflict, rebuild trust, improve communication skills & address money issues. I work with difficult teens and young adults. I work with addictions, trauma, and support recovery and spirituality. I can help you resolve family of origin issues.

I am dedicated to helping people overcome their struggles and become more connected with themselves and others. I've worked in Human Services since 1995 and have been a Mental Health Therapist since 2002. My training includes many modalities but what I find to be the important is understanding where people are in their lives through actively listening to people's experience, being supportive and identifying what works best for each person. This creates a safe environment where people feel heard, accepted and validated..

Health and healing are journeys. We are always honored when clients ask us along on their journey towards recovery from the trauma or devastation robbing them of the ability to trust themselves or others. If you seek improvements, in any area of your life, let's work together to identify your passions and possibilities, map and monitor your progress, and manage the dynamics that keep you stuck. You, too, can heal from trauma and addictions, manage difficult relationships (see our website for approach to couples & pre-marital counseling), surmount career set-backs & improve your self-esteem with insight and guidance.

Are you asking yourself: Why do I feel the way I feel? Why do I keep doing the things that I do? How do I find, and stay in, my happy place? Can my marriage or romantic relationship be saved? What am I doing with my life? Our therapists and life coaches can help you find answers to your questions. We are open to your story, and we listen with warmth, empathy and no judgment. We work with individual clients (14 -65+) doing individual therapy, couples/marriage counseling and life coaching.

You want something different, but it’s hard to motivate and place what that really is. You are sensitive, creative, queer, thoughtful, and full of so many thoughts. You likely have a habit of overextending yourself in the hopes of finding where you feel you belong. You see patterns in your relationships that you want to examine and change, and some part of you knows that you deserve a more satisfying life. Therapy is a non-judgmental space in which you can overcome familiar patterns by being witnessed and heard, and acquire tools to improve your relationship with yourself and others.

We all have points in our lives when a therapist can help us move through difficult times. You may feel stuck somehow, in pain, or just wanting support. You may be holding experiences from the past that still feel present or have pain from feeling unsafe in the world. I work with clients around depression/anxiety, grief, trauma, shame, and relationship issues. I also have clients wanting to deepen healing around racial trauma and white supremacy. Many of my clients also are trans/non-binary and I welcome supporting you on your journey of coming out or transitioning or if you are just looking for an affirming healing space.

Do Holistic and spiritual approaches to therapy appeal to you? Clients connect to my services because they want to work through their struggles from a body/soul/mind/emotion perspective. I guide couples and individuals in their quest to transform life's challenges into a tapestry of wisdom. I passionately embrace the depth of each person's journey to heal their past traumatic wounding and foster the development of true empowerment. Embracing the ancient teachings of shamanism, we will journey into non-ordinary realities where you will heal fragmented aspects and begin to know your true self.

Are you yearning for a transformative shift in your relationships, health, or life? Maybe a recent diagnosis has left you reeling, or constant arguments with your partner have created a chasm. Perhaps you simply feel overwhelmed and lost. No matter the challenge, you deserve to find support and ignite hope. Every situation, even the most difficult, holds the potential for profound growth and healing. I'm here to guide you on this transformative journey, helping you unlock your potential and build a stronger, more fulfilling life.

You are not alone! The road to recover from past trauma, grief, sadness, anxiety, disappointment, physical pain and addiction is often difficult to begin. It is fear that keeps us stuck and often unable to move in the direction of health & wellness. I am here to tell you that you ARE STRONG and the choice to move through fear is possible.
