Dr. Dianne Marino-Surovcik PhD

I am a counseling psychologist earning a PhD at Lehigh University, Bethlehem, PA, in 1999. You are encouraged to call me Dr. Dianne because the rest is too extra! Deeply rooted in psychodynamic theory, specifically object relations, I use cognitive and behavioral techniques to help shape behavior change. Unfortunately, insight isn't always enough to change problem behaviors. My 25 years working as a licensed psychologist are characterized by a clientele ranging from age 16 to geriatrics. I have extensive training and experience in psychological testing and neuropsychological evaluations.

My style is relaxed and collaborative. I like reciprocity in therapy sessions, and I will work as hard for you as you work for yourself in treatment.

Our first session, or intake as we call it, is typically longer than a therapy session. This is when I am trying hard to understand your problem and expectations from treatment, and if I can deliver you the best possible outcome. At the end of the intake session, we will have a plan moving forward that meets your treatment needs and schedule.
