Anxiety, Depression and Trauma Therapy in Reading

Bill’s core clinical focus is helping teens, adults and seniors navigate anxiety, depression, trauma and stress related difficulties. Drawing on a person centered, evidence based approach, he tailors treatment to each client’s unique goals and values, whether addressing persistent worry, low mood, or the lingering impacts of traumatic experiences.

In sessions, you will work through patterns of avoidance and emotional reactivity using ACT and CBT strategies, while building skills like mindfulness, cognitive reframing and distress tolerance through DBT. Treatment targets both the root causes of your struggles and practical day to day coping, with clear takeaways to support progress between sessions.
