About
Adrian Chiu, Ph.D.
In my work, I strive to create an accepting, non-judgmental environment where you can feel safe exploring the difficult, and sometimes painful, parts of yourself. I view therapy as a deeply meaningful and collaborative process that can identify the roots of your struggles and serve as a catalyst to shifting the way you relate to yourself and others. This allows for more fulfilling and meaningful relationships, and the subsequent easing of pain and suffering over time. I am a Licensed Psychologist in PA located in the greater Philadelphia area, and since opening the doors of my private practice in 2016, I have provided patients across forty-two states with a wide range of psychological services including psychoanalytic/psychodynamic therapy, short-term therapy for a Big 4 consulting firm, Compensation and Pension (C&P) and Disability Benefit Questionnaire (DBQ) exams for Veterans, and disability case review consultations across the disability spectrum.

What is Psychoanalytic/ Psychodynamic Therapy?
If you find yourself engaging in maladaptive relationship patterns, have an inner sense of something feeling "off", and/or value self-examination and self-awareness, then psychoanalytic or psychodynamic therapy may be a good fit for you.
The whole person is addressed, not just the "symptoms" or the "diagnosis."
The past impacts the present in ways that are both visible and invisible.
Success means not only symptom improvement, but a more meaningful and purposeful life.
