Our therapists offer DBT / dialectical behavior therapy in Bensalem, PA

I'm a licensed professional counselor (LPC) and nationally certified counselor (NCC) who works with individuals ages 16 and up navigating depression, anxiety, mood disorders, psychosis, personality disorders, relationship issues, and self-esteem challenges. My goal is to help you build a deeper understanding of yourself and find real hope for the future.

I believe therapy works best as a partnership. Using a range of approaches—including CBT, DBT, person-centered therapy, and family systems—I tailor each session to you. Whether you want to take the lead or need more guidance from me, I'll meet you where you are.

Each session, my aim is for you to leave feeling better equipped to handle whatever comes next. I recognize the courage it took to get here, and I'm ready to walk alongside you. Schedule an appointment to start this next chapter.

Greetings! My name is Lenda. I am a bilingual counselor. I have been a counselor for eight years. I chose this career because I personally know someone who struggled with mental health. It is gratifying seeing how my clients have shown progress and achieved a better life throughout my work with them. I have gained experience in working with individuals who struggle with depression and anxiety symptoms on a daily basis. I also have worked with victims of sexual abuse and other crimes. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy skills in sessions. I continue taking training to better help my clients. 

My approach is for clients to identify negative thought patterns and replace them with healthier, more constructive ones. Challenge distorted thoughts. Use of interventions between sessions. Objectives are set and measured regularly to monitor client progress. Mindfulness is used in sessions to help clients manage emotions, anxiety, and impulsive decisions. 

Sounds like you have gone through a lot, please allow me to help you heal through a gentle and peaceful session. I want you to know that you matter and your feelings are important. Therapy is a safe place to explore your concerns at your own pace.
