of helping parents who have divorced/split up, or are in
the process of divorcing/splitting up, resolve issues
related to their children. This process is voluntary, and
is appropriate for parents who have a history of being
fairly cooperative with each other. However, in difficult
and contentious divorces and partner splits (often
referred to as "high conflict" divorces or breakups)
there is a growing movement toward the use of "parenting
coordination," a process in which both parties enter into
a legal agreement (a "stipulation") that has the effect
of a Court Order. The parenting coordinator (PC) may
engage in some counseling, but is more often involved in
actual decision-making. Dr. Steve Eichel is one of the
founders of the Parenting
Coordination Council of Delaware,
which works directly with Family Court. He has been
trained as a PC by, and is a member of, the Association
for Family and Conciliation Courts (AFCC), the premier
interdisciplinary association of mental health
professionals, attorneys and judges involved in family
disputes. We provide forensic examinations
and expert witness testimony in custody matters, and in
legal cases involving undue influence, malpractice,
and/or psychological injury. Both Drs. Steve Eichel and
Linda Dubrow-Marshall has testified in several recent
high-profile cases; Dr. Steve Eichel has worked as a
court psychologist for Camden County, NJ and has a broad
range of forensic experience. We have developed a reputation for
being able to work with difficult and "resistant"
children and teenagers. Dr. Steve Eichel was the former
Clinical Director of the St. Francis Homes for Boys, and
has been a trainer of child and adolescent therapists
since 1986. We work with children and adolescents in
individual and conjoint family therapy. We employ state-of-the-art
behavioral strategies (e.g., in vivo
desensitization, EMDR, clinical hypnosis) for individuals
suffering from anxiety and panic disorders. Dr. Linda
Dubrow was trained at the famed Agoraphobia Clinic of
Temple University Hospital, and is a Professional Member
of the Anxiety Disorders Association of
America. Dr. Steve Eichel has significant
experience treating children, adolescents and adults who
have experienced trauma, including physical,
psychological/emotional and sexual abuse. He is
especially experienced in treating complex and chronic
trauma (individuals who have experience multiple traumas
over many years). His strengths-focused, gentle approach
to treatment is consistent with empirical research on
treatment of trauma and what we know to be "best
practice" in this difficult field. Dr. Eichel was
instrumental in starting the Trauma Counseling program at
Chestnut Hill College, Philadelphia, PA. Dr. Steve Eichel has treated
individuals with sexual disorders and sexual concerns for
many years. He is LGBT-friendly. Dr. Eichel is a member
of the American Association of Sexuality Educators,
Counselors & Therapists (AASECT) and has received
training from AASECT-certified sex therapists. He is also
a Clinical Member of the Association for the Treatment of
Sexual Abusers (ATSA).
A safe and effective tool
for powerful change and increase self-control. We utilize
hypnosis in a scientific and ethical manner in which
you are always in control. We follow the strict
guidelines adopted by the American Society of Clinical
Hypnosis and the American Psychological Association with
regard to working competently with memory-related issues
and physical/sexual abuse.
Eye Movement Desensitization
& Reprocessing is a clinically-proven treatment
modality for the treatment and resolution of anxieties,
phobias and traumas that may not have responded to
"traditional" talk therapy. EMDR can be used with adults,
adolescents, and children.
We provide a respectful,
whole-person, systems-oriented approach to substance
abuse, addiction, and behavioral compulsions (e.g.,
compulsive overeating, sexual compulsivity/addiction,
gambling). We help you discover the tools that work best
for you to break the chains of addictive
behaviors. Both Dr. Steve Eichel and Dr. Dubrow-Marshall
are certified in addictions treatment by the APA College
of Professional Psychology, and Dr. Eichel teaches in the
addictions counseling program at Villanova
University.
