Barbara Kessell, Ph.D.
My name is Penny, and I have been in practice for 13+ years. I am here to help you grow and heal. I enjoy meeting a client where they are, and I take a client centered approach to treatment. My approach is rooted in respect, empathy and confidentiality. I value the courage it takes to be vulnerable and ensure clients are comfortable sharing their unique experiences.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In your first session, you can expect a safe and non judgmental place to express your treatment needs. We will discuss the reason you are seeking treatment and develop treatment goals in order to assist you to be successful in your life.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My strength as a provider is ensuring my clients are comfortable sharing and assisting them to uncover insights into their thoughts, feelings, and needs. By doing this, I help clients improve overall functioning within their lives.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I have utilized CBT when working with clients, assisting them to gain insight into distorted ways of thinking, helping them gain coping skills to better manage emotions and behaviors.
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
I currently run a DBT group in a children's clinic that helps high risk clients improve their abilities to manage intense emotions, thus reducing high risk behaviors and suicidal ideation. I use DBT with a variety of clients and find the skills to be helpful.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
I have found mindfulness based therapy effective when treating depression. Combining mindfulness and CBT helps clients to gain coping skills and increase present moment awareness.
Trauma Informed Care
I have found that understanding a clients experiences with trauma helps to understand how they interact and function in the world.
