Getting to know Helen Ford

Helen Ford, LMFT I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 10 years of experience, licensed in Pennsylvania and Delaware. I hold a Master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Drexel University's esteemed Couples and Family Therapy Program, as well as an undergraduate degree in Psychology with a minor in Child Development from the University of Alabama. My career has enabled me to support individuals ranging from ages 6 to 89 in various settings, including community mental health, outpatient clinics, and educational institutions. My therapeutic approach is grounded in empathy, care, and collaboration. I work closely with clients to help them identify their ideal lives and establish meaningful goals to reach them. I understand that health is a continuous journey rather than a one-time solution, and I am dedicated to providing guidance and support during the critical chapters where it is most needed, ultimately empowering clients to navigate their own paths with confidence. In our partnership, you are in control of your journey, and I am here to assist in navigating the way toward fulfillment and well-being. Together, we will embark on the path toward a healthier, more balanced life.
