Online Men therapists in Pennsylvania

I offer treatment for both individuals and their families who struggle with eating disorders symptoms  

Many of us reach out when we feel the need for support, or help working through challenging times. Sometimes we face challenges we think are too difficult to manage alone. I believe in taking a strength-based, client-centered approach to psychotherapy, working with you to help you grow toward your best self. The familiar ways you have of dealing with life's complications may not be working; together we can work to identify new positive means of change.  

You only need a private, comfortable space, good Internet access, and an electronic device with a camera. Hands-free is preferred, so we recommend a computer. All video sessions are conducted through a HIPAA-compliant portal. You can access sessions via any web browser. Typically, your internet is good to go if you can stream videos without issues.

I offer virtual therapy using SimplePractice's HIPAA-compliant platform.  

My clients are often surprised by how quickly they felt comfortable talking about their issues and concerns. I use a direct, no-nonsense approach, with caring, support and humor, and people new to therapy generally find it easier than they expect to open up and talk.  

I specialize in cognitive-behavioral therapy for OCD and related disorders. I received training in the treatment of OCD at McLean Hospitals Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder Institute as well as the Institute of Living's Anxiety Disorders Center. In addition to working with folks who have OCD, I also work with individuals struggling with other forms of anxiety such as generalized anxiety disorder.  

I offer teletherapy in MN plus 39 states. This allows you convenience and therapy from the comfort of your own home.  

Welcome! I provide tele-therapy with a style that is affirming, collaborative and warm. We work together to identify a path in therapy that is focused on your current needs in your journey. This is a compassionate space to explore what it means to live authentically in this world.  

Although I see clients in person if you live close to me in NC, I am "authorized" to see clients through Teletherapy by PsyPact, which lets me work with folks in all PsyPact states. I see individuals and couples (who sometimes aren't in the same place!) on my platform, and there is an "ease" that I don't think people expect. My core theory approach is Interpersonal Psychotherapy (combined with CBT, Gestalt, attention to lifestyle, spiritual life and career). I use testing to give us a "quickstart", namely the MBTI, FIRO/B, and Strong Interest Inventory. I also have a list of "handouts" (You wouldn't guess that I've been a professor in Counseling Psychology, would you?!) and a model called the Interpersonal Flexibility Circle that I've developed to more clearly see concretely how relationships really work. All of these methods support our work and are teletherapy friendly. All of them support both individual and relationship therapy (even your relationship with all ages of your SELF!) I use an approach that helps people to rather quickly recognize how their "stuck challenges" and defenses have been "safety maneuvers" for perhaps their whole lives. How enlightening and empowering!  

Are you in need of safe place to come and talk? I am waiting to hear from you!  

Online therapy offers convenience along with the ability to focus on strengths and explore challenges from your preferred location.  

I offer secure convenient telehealth therapy that fits with your lifestyle.  

Therapists should not operate with mystery. When you ask for help, you should be able to find a warm, kind, and highly trained person who has the expertise to actually help you. During therapy consultations, most people say that they want a therapist who won't just sit there and nod at them. That makes a lot of sense to me. Starting with a new therapist takes a lot of courage and most of us wouldn't do it unless we need real help. Most hurt and trauma happens in our relationships with others and in order for therapy to help you need to be able to trust that your therapist is with you. When.you talk with me, you have my full attention. We'll make connections between what's happening now and what happened in your past experiences. We'll also work on feeling less shame and more safety. I am primarily a couples therapist but I do take on some individual clients if it seems like it would be a good fit.  

Online therapy is accessible, effective, and a service I’ve been offering since 2017, well before the COVID-19 pandemic. Having formal training in providing therapy online, I am well versed in navigating the strengths and pitfalls of virtual treatment. I can help you make the most of our virtual meetings through practical suggestions to help maintain privacy and safety, reduce distractions, and develop therapeutic closeness despite physical distant.

We see patients both in-person and online. ​  

We offer online trauma therapy for clients located in PA, NJ, and DE.  

Since the pandemic shook our world and the experience of how we connect with others, I have been practicing remotely. I have found that teletherapy has been as effective as meeting in person in terms of relationship building, creating a safe space, and communicating openly, honestly, and directly. For many clients with busy lives, online therapy reduces the obstacles of travel, traffic, and parking, and provides a simple way of managing billing/payment.
