Rebecca Whitten,
Psy.D., M.Ed.

I am a 2009 graduate of Widener's Institute of Graduate Clinical Psychology and have been working at Penn Psychological Associates since graduating. Along with my doctorate in psychology, I also have a master's in human sexuality education.

In our work together, I will give you connection, warmth, humor, and insight as I help you navigate this period in your life. The key to any successful treatment is a safe, trusting, compassionate relationship between the therapist and client- this is our first goal. Often our most intimate relationships play out problems that we encounter again and again. Together we will examine connections between your past and present, and ways in which current behaviors can be modified in order to have more successful and fulfilling relationships- our long term goal.
