Dr. Diane Herbstman Welbel, Psy.D.

I am committed to helping others choose to live a full life. I believe that psychotherapy can be a powerful tool toward reaching this goal, by creating the insight to grow, the space to heal, and the courage and self-reliance to foster change. This process begins with a safe and trusting therapist-client relationship. We will discuss what is important to you and collaborate to set goals for our work. Together, we will talk through your struggles, identifying sources of distress, discovering inner strength and resilience and developing strategies to cope with and improve your life. I have experience working with a number of clinical issues and diagnoses, most frequently with trauma and loss, anxiety and mood disorders, adjustment difficulties, and identity, self-esteem and relationship problems. I have extensive experience in eating disorders (overeating, binge eating, emotional eating and night eating syndrome) and bariatric assessments. I have worked with adults, students, adolescents
