About Stephen Van Schoyck, PhD

Dr. Stephen R. Van Schoyck is a clinical psychologist who has been in private practice in Bucks County, PA since 1984. His practice is a general practice of clinical psychology treating adults, couples, families, and children. His treatment philosophy is eclectic drawing from interpersonal, dynamic, systems, and cognitive behavioral theories. Dr. Van Schoyck believes that many mental health symptoms reflect mismanagement of emotions generated through interpersonal relationships. By learning what these emotions mean, and how to use them, the person becomes emotionally healthier and more capable of solving relationship problems. 

Based on his experiences working in weight control for a Fortune 500 pharmaceutical company, Dr. Van Schoyck published his first book, THE BURN RATE DIET in 2001 with HarperCollins. His second book, LOOKING FOR YOUR SELF IN ALL THE WRONG PLACES: How To Recognize Your Authentic Self and Live On Your Terms, is completed and soon to be published.  

Dr. Van Schoyck graduated from Princeton University in 1975 and received his doctorate in Clinical Psychology from the University of Cincinnati in 1984. He has been married for over 40 years, with four adult children and four grandchildren. He is licensed to practice in Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
