How Philly Psychology can help

Support for the challenges that matter most.

Care is tailored to the person—not a label. Dr. Val works with children, teens, adults, parents, and families using evidence-based, neurodiversity-affirming treatment.

Children & teens

Support for anxiety, OCD, ADHD, emotional regulation, school concerns, identity, neurodevelopmental needs, and family transitions.

Adults

Individualized care for anxiety, OCD, ADHD and executive functioning, relationships, work, health, identity, trauma, grief, and major life changes.

Parenting & caregiving: practical guidance to understand behavior, reduce conflict, strengthen connection, and collaborate with schools and care teams.

Areas of focus

Specialized care, clearly organized.

Anxiety, OCD & Fears

CBT, Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), and gradual exposure-based care help children, teens, and adults face fears, reduce avoidance, and regain confidence. Parents receive practical tools for home.

Trauma, Grief & Life Transitions

Trauma-informed care for loss, overwhelming experiences, chronic stress, and major life changes.

ADHD, Autism & Executive Functioning

Affirming therapy, evaluation, and practical support for attention, organization, regulation, communication, and sensory needs.
