Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in West Chester, PA

Elisabetta Ambron is licensed psychologist who completed her PhD in psychology and cognitive neuroscience at the University of Edinburgh. Her knowledge in cognitive neuroscience has equipped her with a unique understanding of the relationship between body and brain.

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.

Dr. Aubria Nance (SHE/HER), a native of Philadelphia, has a solution-focused approach to helping others overcome personal obstacles, make life transitions, survive, and thrive using empathy, reflective listening, and humor. She is unapologetically human, honest, and optimistic. Aubria truly cares for her clients and works collaboratively to help them achieve their goals. She aspires to inspire you toward greatness, however you define it.

Finding the right therapist is about finding a balance between someone who truly "gets" it and someone who can help you map out the way forward. I’ve dedicated my career to being both a safe harbor and a catalyst for growth. My approach is rooted in deep empathy, but I am also firmly goal-oriented. Whether we are navigating a specific diagnosis or a difficult life transition, I believe that therapy should provide you with both a sense of peace and a clear sense of direction.

Areas of Expertise & Passion

Children & Adolescents: I spent ten years working with students facing a wide range of challenges, including autism, anxiety, oppositional defiance disorder (ODD), and emotional disturbances. I understand the unique pressures of the school environment and am passionate about helping kids find their footing and flourish.

Young Adults: The transition into adulthood can feel like navigating without a map. I help young adults build the confidence they need to define their own version of success and tackle the "what comes next" with resilience.

Mothers & Postpartum Support: Motherhood is a profound transformation, often accompanied by overwhelming stressors. I provide a supportive space for postpartum moms and those juggling the relentless demands of family life to find balance, reclaim their identity, and prioritize their mental well-being.

My philosophy: I believe every individual deserves a space where they are fully seen and heard. My mission is to provide that safety while empowering you to reach the milestones that matter most to you.If you’re looking for a partner in your journey toward growth—or a steady hand for your child—I’m here to help. Let’s get to work.

I’m a licensed clinical psychologist who helps adults navigate life’s pressures with more clarity and balance. I have a special passion for supporting women, and I also work with men managing depression, anxiety, or relationship concerns. My style is warm, practical, and collaborative, and I use an integrative CBT approach to guide our work. My goal is to help you feel understood, supported, and equipped to move toward the life you want.

I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 10 years of experience in community behavioral health and private practice. I work with adults, couples, and teens experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, grief, life transitions, parenting challenges, and emotional stress.

Much of my work focuses on helping people who feel stuck in relationships or caught in patterns they don’t know how to change. This may include recurring conflict, emotional disconnection, difficulty communicating needs, boundary challenges, or uncertainty about how to move forward. I also work with individuals whose anxiety, depression, or stress is closely connected to relationship dynamics, major life changes, or feeling overwhelmed by competing demands.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and conversational. I draw from evidence-based approaches including CBT, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), mindfulness, and family-systems perspectives. Rather than simply giving advice, I work with clients to better understand what's happening beneath the surface, recognize patterns, develop practical coping skills, and make meaningful changes that fit their goals and values.

Clients often describe me as approachable, easy to talk to, and nonjudgmental. I aim to create a space where you can be honest about what's going on while also feeling supported and gently challenged when it may help you move forward.
