How I Can Help

Many of the people I work with are dealing with emotional overwhelm, a harsh inner critic, or friction in their closest relationships — alongside a range of other concerns, from specific mental health diagnoses to life transitions to wanting real personal growth. Whatever brought you here, you don't have to sort through it alone.


My approach draws on well-established methods — including Somatic Experiencing, CBT, IFS, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, humanistic therapy, and existential and spiritual traditions — brought together into an integrative framework I call The IKVaS™ Method. At its core, it's about naming what you're feeling, understanding what's underneath it, and working through it in a way that feels true to your own voice.


I'm Aaron Silverman, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker since 2012, and I also bring 25+ years of broader experience working with families, couples, teens, and adults. I try to bring genuine warmth — and some humor — into a process that can otherwise feel heavy.


I offer individual, couples, and family therapy, currently serving clients across Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Michigan, and Virginia.


Clients often tell me that even early sessions leave them feeling more hopeful — and looking forward to the next one.
