Debra Pliner, Ph.D.
Debra Pliner
I am a licensed clinical psychologist in Pennsylvania. My overall approach to therapy is to tailor each person’s therapy to his or her unique needs, goals, and strengths. I realize that what may work for one person may not always work for another, and therefore I believe that it is important to be flexible and sensitive to individual differences.
While I generally practice cognitive-behavioral therapy combined with mindfulness-based concepts and techniques, I may at times also use other methods to present a more integrative approach depending on your needs and personality style.
Together, you and I will work to identify significant patterns in your life that affect your well-being, understand the thoughts and feelings behind those patterns, and integrate new and more effective ways of dealing with the challenges you face.
Areas of specialization include:
- Depression
- Anxiety
- Relationship problems
- Anger Management
- Stress Management
- Life transitions
- Bipolar Disorder
- Schizophrenia
- Adults
- College Students
