Personalized Care Close to Home
Located near Villanova University, our Villanova office supports families, children, and couples in the heart of the community. At our core is a holistic, trauma-informed approach—blending proven therapeutic methods like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, EMDR, and play therapy tailored to each individual’s needs.
Expert Child-Focused Healing
- Our licensed clinicians specialize in Child Therapy, offering gentle, play-based interventions to help kids cope with anxiety, behavioral challenges, grief, and developmental transitions.
- From ages 4 through adolescence, services include parent coaching, social skills development, and coping strategies for home and school success.
- With parents included as therapy partners, we foster resilient, nurturing environments that empower both child and caregiver.
Strengthening Partnerships
As relationships evolve, they can encounter stress, miscommunication, or emotional distance. Our marriage counseling sessions guide couples through these challenges:
- Rediscover trust, rebuild intimacy, and refine communication skills.
- Address parenting stress, life changes, betrayal, or intimacy concerns, all within a neutral, confidential space.
- Couples leave sessions with actionable tools to solve conflict and nurture their bond.
Marriage counseling (also known as couples therapy or relationship therapy) brings both partners into a supportive process aimed at growth—not blame—helping them navigate conflict and celebrate connection .
