Clinical Hypnosis A safe and effective tool for powerful change and increase self-control. We utilize hypnosis in a scientific and ethical manner in which you are always in control.

EMDR Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing is a clinically-proven treatment modality for the treatment and resolution of anxieties, phobias and traumas that may not have responded to "traditional" talk therapy. EMDR can be used with adults, adolescents, and children.

Addictions Counseling We provide a respectful, whole-person, systems-oriented approach to substance abuse, addiction, and behavioral compulsions (e.g., compulsive overeating, sexual compulsivity/addiction, gambling). We help you discover the tools that work best for you to break the chains of addictive behaviors. Both Dr. Steve Eichel and Dr. Dubrow-Marshall are certified in addictions treatment by the APA College of Professional Psychology. Dr. Eichel has taught addictions counseling on the state and national level, and was on the addictions counseling faculty at Villanova University.

Parenting Coordination In difficult and contentious divorces and partner splits (often referred to as "high conflict" divorces or breakups) there is a growing movement toward the use of "parenting coordination," a process in which both parties enter into a legal agreement (a "stipulation") that has the effect of a Court Order. (Note: Parenting coordination is NOT coparenting counseling.) The parenting coordinator (PC) may engage in some counseling, but is more often involved in actual decision-making. Dr. Steve Eichel is one of the founders of the Parenting Coordination Council of Delaware, which works directly with Family Court. He has been trained as a PC by, and is a member of, the Association for Family and Conciliation Courts (AFCC), the premier interdisciplinary association of mental health professionals, attorneys and judges involved in family disputes.

His criminal cases have involved capital (death penalty) crimes, competency (insanity defense), sexual abuse and sex offending.
