Hello, my name is Dr. Pamela Wells-Elam. I have been working in the healthcare system with adults for the past 20 years. I have been a nurse practitioner for the past 8 years and hold a Doctoral degree in nursing practice, a master's degree in adult gerontology and psychiatric mental health.
Hi! My name is Beren Karlson, LCSW. I have been in practice over 5 years, specializing in working with individuals impacted by trauma, depression, anxiety, and stress. I believe mental health treatment should feel safe, supportive, challenging, and sometimes fun.
There's a particular exhaustion that comes from being strong for everyone — from carrying your history in your body, from holding complexity in a world that keeps asking you to pick one lane. Whether you're sorting through old trauma, navigating mood swings that feel out of your control, or sitting with the weight of relationships that have hurt you, you don't need to figure it out by yourself. Many of my clients are high-functioning people who've been told they're fine — and they're tired of pretending that's the whole story.
As a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner, I believe that prioritizing mental health is essential for achieving happiness and stability in life. Seeking help can often be challenging, so I want to compliment you for taking it! I have been practicing for over five years and have a proven track record of treating complex and severe mental disorders over the last decade. My experience includes working with patients diagnosed with bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, major depressive disorder (MDD), anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and addiction.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW-C), LICSW who mainly specializes in adult individual, couples, and family counseling. I am currently licensed in MD, DC, DE, and FL. I have 20 years of experience providing therapy for individuals, families, and couples. I also have over 28 years of experience working in various social work settings. I am a certified life coach, a licensed minister as well as an author. I believe that every person has the right and ability to live a purposeful and fulfilled life. My goal is to empower, affirm, and build individuals to reach their maximum potential. I will never impose religious beliefs on my clients and will always value and support their individual perspectives. I enjoy facilitating workshops on various life issues, divorce, grief and loss and empowerment. I have facilitated several trainings for other professionals, and I have conducted training around Grief and Loss, Trauma Informed Care, and Understanding Child Development.
I'm Sharon, an LCSW with over 30 years of experience helping teens and adults navigate anxiety, trauma, depression, and life's harder chapters. I'm certified in EMDR - an evidence-based approach that's especially powerful for trauma, PTSD, and anxiety that feels stuck - and I bring that alongside CBT, mindfulness, and a genuinely warm style. I see clients in person in Chadds Ford and online across Pennsylvania, and Delaware. Whether you're a teen struggling with school and identity or an adult who's exhausted from holding everything together, you'll find this a safe, collaborative space to actually breathe.
I specialize in trauma-informed care for survivors of trauma including sexual assault, domestic violence, and sex trafficking.
I help my clients develop coping skills to better deal with life's challenges.
Greetings, I am a therapist in private practice for over fifteen years. I am dually licensed as a mental health therapist and an addictions therapist.
Are you ready to live better? If you struggle with anxiety, anger, stress, depression, grief, or have experienced trauma, I can help. I am a psychotherapist who provides a safe and welcoming environment for you to process difficult experiences and ultimately heal and find peace. I have extensive experience working with individuals from the LGBTQAI+ community and I honor and embrace diversity in sexuality and gender.
With over 20 years of experience in the mental health field, I've had the privilege of working across a wide range of treatment settings, including acute care, non-acute care, residential treatment, and outpatient therapy. I work with adolescents and adults and have experience providing individual and couples therapy.
My primary areas of focus include relationship counseling using the Gottman Method, chronic pain and chronic illness through Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT), addiction treatment informed by the work of Dr. Carl Hart, and Borderline Personality Disorder using Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT).
In addition to these specialty areas, I frequently help clients navigate anxiety, panic attacks, depression, life transitions, adjustment disorders, parenting challenges, workplace stress, and the everyday demands that can leave us all feeling overwhelmed!
