Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in Newtown Square, PA

Even after 2 decides of supporting people, I'm even more inspired by those that seek support. I sincerely believe in the likelihood of improving.

Hello! I am a nurse practitioner (NP) who is experienced in both Psychiatry and Primary Care. Before graduating with my MSN and Adult Primary Care NP program in 2015, I was a RN for 9 years in the hospital setting. While working in Psychiatry starting in 2022, I decided to pursue my Post-Master’s certification in Psychiatric Mental Health NP and graduated in April of 2024.

I am dual-certified in primary care and psychiatry. I am licensed in PA. I offer virtual and in-person appointments. I am accepting new clients.

I am curious and validating, providing a nurturing environment to talk openly and honestly about your struggles, strengths, weaknesses, needs, likes, and dislikes. I love helping people explore their unique and particular powers as well as how these powers impact their world and their relationships. As a passionate supporter of those who have been through unjust or otherwise traumatic experiences--including those experiencing discrimination based upon race or gender identity or sexual orientation--I am particularly interested in helping people gain skills for dealing with, and making sense of, the remnants of their pasts.

Having completed Bessel Van der Kolk's Trauma Research Foundation's Certificate in Traumatic Stress Studies in early 2025, I have a strong foundational understanding of the most cutting edge approaches to treating trauma. I am also comfortable using a combination of approaches, including Psychodynamic, Gestalt, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. I received an MSW from the University of Pennsylvania, a psychodynamically focused program, after which I completed Bryn Mawr's certificate program in psychodynamic psychotherapy. I have also completed 1 year of Gestalt Therapy training and the Acceptance and Commitment Therapy Immersion Program.

As an LCSW, my training emphasized the role of social environment--from the family to society at large--in how we construct our narratives, enabling me to help you make sense of what in your life is yours to own and what is a product of your environment.

I began my career working with substance use disorders and mental health disorders in 2006. The first 13 years of my career were centered on helping individuals and families recover from substance use disorders which often included co-morbid mental health disorders. The latter part of my career has been primarily focused on women’s health. I have specialized in helping to support women who are facing infertility, loss or miscarriage, perinatal and postpartum mood shifts. I truly enjoy supporting women while they navigate motherhood and all that this brings. I work with men and women age 18 and up.

I use a holistic approach to therapy with a focus in the following areas of Mindfulness, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Family Systems. In this work, I love to help people heal and grow in their relationship with self and others. I am a trauma informed therapist who is skilled in treating PTSD, Anxiety, Depression, Grief, Life Transitions, and Mood Disorders.

I am a certified yoga teacher, and I believe it is important to incorporate the body into therapy. I incorporate body centered techniques to help people engage with their nervous system and take back control of their stress response. Whether you or a loved one is struggling with ongoing mood disorder symptoms or are going through a difficult life experience I can help to empower you to feel more grounded and more confident in your ability to manage hard times. By changing our thoughts and behaviors we can improve our relationship with ourselves as well as with those around us.

Hi! My name is Amber Cardemil. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and therapist. I am passionate about working with individuals and families to make treatment a collaborative process. I have experience in providing treatment for eating disorders, food-related concerns and co-occurring conditions. I am a Health at Every Size Healthcare Provider, trained and experienced across all levels of care (inpatient, residential, partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient treatment). I have worked in various capacities (admission, assessment, individual, family, group therapy) that informs my work with clients. I work together with clients to find the best approach to each case drawing from evidence-based treatments that work. I have great appreciation for the need to understand individual and family psychodynamics and enjoy working with everyone I encounter. I have extensive training in Family Based Treatment for adolescents who struggle with Anorexia Nervosa. I work to empower families to serve as an ally in their loved one’s recovery. I am flexible in my treatment approach and I utilize empirical evidence for treatment effectiveness. I believe in working from a multidisciplinary approach through working closely with other health care providers and caregivers to achieve best treatment outcomes. In addition to treating eating disorders, I am also passionate about working with mental health concerns related to anxiety, depression and life transitions.

I specialize in helping adults and young adults manage anxiety disorders, panic attacks, chronic stress, and burnout using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and other evidence-based approaches. I also support clients experiencing depression, trauma-related symptoms, and life transitions that feel overwhelming or hard to manage alone.

Many of the people I work with are functioning well but internally overwhelmed—dealing with constant worry, racing thoughts, physical symptoms of anxiety, or a persistent sense of being “on edge.” Others notice anxiety affecting their sleep, focus, relationships, or ability to relax and enjoy life.
