Therapists in Schuylkill Haven, PA

Hello, my name is Cheryl Rittfeldt. I am a multilingual, Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from the University of Gothenburg, Sweden. I believe that healing is a collective venture that requires honest caring without judgment. I cooperatively assist clients in identifying their goals. Rather than adopting one methodology for all individuals and issues, I gather from a variety of methods to generate a suited strategy. I have experience working with young children, adolescents, teens, couples, and adults. Hola, Yo hablo Espanol

I believe in meeting people where they are, perpetuating meaningful and supportive connection. I enjoy working with clients who are experiencing abuse, neglect, and trauma and who are suffering from the consequences of that trauma. I will help you understand your specific trauma responses and how to change them. You can find relief. You can heal. My goal is to support you in making changes in your life that will lead to positive outcomes and a fulfilling life.

John specializes in LGBTQIA+ issues and gender dysphoria and is a Certified Brain Injury Specialist. He is always open to learning something new about the community! He attended the "transgender training of trainers" in 2019.

I specialize in dissociation and dissociative disorders, complex trauma, big “T” and little “t” traumas, especially medical, sexual, and religious trauma and abuse, attachment & developmental trauma, domestic violence, abuse, shame, grief, spirituality, and sexuality, including working with folks who have committed acts of sexual violence.

I am a queer-identified therapist working in New York, Pennsylvania and New Mexico. EMDR, Internal Family Systems and Somatic Experiencing are my guides to gently lead people towards healing themselves, something I believe we are all capable of. Together, we will set goals for recovery from trauma and major life stressors, incorporating neuroscience-backed strategies and spirituality where you are comfortable.

I have experience working with a diverse set of populations, including those who have struggled with anxiety, depression, intimate partner/domestic violence, sexual abuse, and trauma. I work with individuals struggling with unhealthy relationship patterns, relational violence, trauma, mood disruptions, and work dissatisfaction/burnout. I also work with couples on communication, trust, intimacy, and learning how to "fight fair." I am passionate about advocating for and working with BIPOC individuals, the LGBTQIA+ community, and survivors of relational and/or sexual abuse.

Let’s get you to where you want to be. I believe my clients are the experts in their own lives and I bring to the work: lived experience, training, and a sincere commitment to you living your best life. I follow your lead while also speaking up when something sounds like it might be harmful internalized messaging. I am invested in working with people of a wide range of relationship models and social identities including polyamorous/non-monogamous, trans and nonbinary, Black, Indigenous, and people of color, fat, disabled, neurodivergent, and sex workers. I come to therapy as a second career from the art and education worlds.

My work is rooted in care and love for humanity and the goal of betterment of our society as a whole, starting with the way we treat ourselves.

Let me help you bloom to your full potential. I do not label or use a "medical model." As an interfaith minister, I provide holistic spiritual counseling, and/or hypnotherapy or intuitive guidance, that is respectful of your spiritual (or non-spiritual) perspective.

In a comfortable and supportive atmosphere, I hope to help clients attain the personal growth they're striving for.

Are you also grappling with depression and anxiety in reaction to either a past trauma and/or burnout? My name is Blair Mead, and I'm a licensed professional counselor in Pennsylvania.

As a licensed psychologist, board certified clinical hypnotherapist and medical psychotherapist, I have been in private practice for 30 years in center city Philadelphia and Chestnut Hill,Pa.

Ready for some positive change? You deserve to be seen, heard, and empowered in a safe space. My practice is trauma-informed, LGBTQ+ affirming, weight and body inclusive. My specialities include supporting people impacted by trauma especially sexual and domestic violence, eating disorders and body image concerns. I also greatly enjoy working with members of the LGBTQ+ community and those questioning their gender & sexuality. My specialities are informed by ongoing clinical training as well as lived experience as a trauma-recovered, queer-identifying, creative arts professional.

I have a passion for guiding others through some of their toughest times, and assisting in their recovery. I also have a strength based approach, which has assisted in the success of my clients.

Are you feeling overwhelmed or unheard in your relationships? Do you struggle to speak up for yourself or hold boundaries because prioritizing your needs has never been on the table? Do you struggle with feelings of guilt even when you haven't done anything wrong? Do you battle with body image/diet culture? Are you contemplating a life that looks different than the one you are currently living, but don't know where to begin or even if you should? A great deal of the clients I see are struggling with these things and hoping to break cycles and forge a new path for themselves with the help of someone who will walk alongside them.

My specialty lies in working with those who have experienced traumas, both large and small. Many times people see trauma as large life changing events and put aside the smaller things that can leave a mark. I try and explore both of these experiences with my clients, along with their relationships with others and themselves. This can cover a range of topics including, but not limited to, self-esteem, anxiety, boundaries, and self care. My goal is to create a space where clients can explore their emotions on their own timeline not mine or anyone else's.
