Getting to know Shari Dowlin

***Please Note: I do not participate directly with any insurance plans. You will be given a receipt to provide to your insurance company for possible out-of-network coverage. Please contact your insurance carrier for more information. ***Also, please expect that I will be contacting you within the same day of your booking. For many people, taking the first step to seek therapy can feel uncomfortable and maybe even a little scary. That’s why I strive to provide a safe and comfortable environment for you (or your child) to build a strong therapeutic relationship. I have years of experience working with children, families, and adults in various therapeutic settings, including outpatient therapy programs, acute partial hospital programs, and inpatient psychiatric hospitals. I have experience in the treatment of anxiety, stress, ADHD, PTSD, trauma, anger issues, and behavioral problems. I hold a Master’s in Social Work from the University of Pennsylvania. I use interventions that I feel are most appropriate and fit your needs. I have background training in cognitive behavioral therapy, and my sessions are typically client-centered and strengths-based. I will help you restructure negative thoughts and patterns and explore past issues that you feel stuck on. With children, we will play with toys, games, or color and draw to bring extra comfort while discussing difficult topics. During family sessions, we will develop plans and goals and work on effective communication to make positive changes within your family. You will be supported throughout this process. We will work together at your own pace to discuss any problems or concerns you have and to help you develop coping strategies to deal with stressors you are facing in your daily life. We will recognize and celebrate the progress you are making at every step of the way.
