Dr. Guerra's Biography
I am a licensed doctoral-level psychologist with experience in hospital, clinic and private settings. For over twenty years, I have maintained a private practice in center city, Philadelphia, in a conveniently located building that has handicapped access. I have an additional office in Bala Cynwyd, Pennsylvania that is close to public transportation and has plenty of free parking.
I have successfully assisted people with many of the kinds of emotional problems that we humans commonly struggle with, such as depression, anxiety, indecision, or the difficulties connected with losing a job, a spouse, a child or a close friend. I have also worked extensively helping people to take control of and overcome their addictions to alcohol, drugs, bad relationships or negative behaviors.
In addition to my graduate training in psychology and psychoeducational processes, I have completed postgraduate studies at a psychoanalytic institute, where the emphasis was on modern psychoanalytic approaches to psychotherapy. I have also completed anexternship in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy, a very effective approach to helping couples work through their barriers to achieving greater emotional closeness and intimacy.
