Create the life you desire

Individualized therapy for teens and adults in Pennsylvania

Specialties

  • Disordered Eating

    Wanting to improve your relationship with food is commendable. I provide a space free from diet culture, while also being fat-positive and HAES-aligned.

  • Depression

    When you feel down, hopeless, or numb, therapy can help give you the tools to create a life worth living. Think of this as your new beginning.

  • Anxiety

    Whether it’s anxiety related to food, past events, or just in general, feeling anxious can take a toll. I use a mind-body approach to help you manage the ups and downs.

  • And More

    Including body image, relational concerns, stress, and self-harm—for teens and adults.

Welcome to
Created Self Therapy

Hi, I’m Gianna Damis.

I help people like you improve their relationship with food and their body, achieve balance in their life, and manage difficult moments. I know it’s a long road, and you might not have people around you who get it.

But I do.

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor and Board Certified Art Therapist in Philadelphia with over 6 years of experience. I am in-network with Aetna and United Healthcare. My therapy approach is empowering, authentic, and dynamic.

I understand it can be hard to be present when you have thoughts that feel overwhelming. It can be tricky to feel like you are getting the most out of your life when how you feel about yourself is holding you back.

Together, we can help your mind feel like a safer place. Read more about my approach here.
