Therapists in Phoenixville, PA

Welcome! I am an Art Therapist, Play Therapist, and Licensed Professional Counselor that specializes in work with children, adolescents, college students, parents, and families. I provide a safe space to release difficult emotions, look carefully at conflict, and provide tools to enhance family connection and inner wisdom. I use both verbal and non-verbal approaches, because sometimes we don't have the words to express what we are going through and need another way to tell the story.

Are you tired of feeling disconnected and alone in your relationship? It feels like each time you communicate, both are left feeling hurt and not understood. Maybe deep down you feel sad but the anger and frustration is building. You start to question everything and fear conflict will never be resolved. You both feel stuck and are not sure how to get out of this cycle that just repeats itself over and over.

My name is Jess, I have experience working with adults, teens, adolescents, children & family systems. My specialties are treating trauma related disorders, adolescent and teen adjustment issues, emotional & behavioral regulation concerns, grief/loss and identity development. I also specialize in treating anxiety and depression. I am trained and certified in Eye Movement Desensitization Therapy (EMDR). I utilize Psychodynamic, Emotion Focused, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools and techniques to help clients recognize, accept, and cope with feelings generated by their past and present experiences.

Are you concerned about changes in your child's mood or behaviors? Are you a parent of a child with social, emotional, or behavioral challenges? Do you struggle to help your child meet these challenges? Do you worry, “Will my child make friends? Will the teachers like my child? What if my child never learns to manage their impulsivity, anxiety, big emotions, social issues?” There is hope.

Are you wanting to work through trauma from your past and not able to navigate that on your own? If you identify with these questions I may be the right therapist for you.

From social media, developing healthy relationships with friends and family making choices about their next steps in life and helping them to gain a stronger sense of self. This is a personal journey, one that I am honored to be a part of. Together we will identify the challenges that are interfering with their quality of life, then we will develop an individualized plan to move forward. I invite you to come in, have a seat, take a breath and your first step forward.

You can’t put your finger on it, but you're sure something is wrong. You work hard to do the right things, but there is a persistent feeling of dissatisfaction. It’s as if you only exist to help others. You take on extra assignments at work even if you’re already overwhelmed. You’re always the one friends ask for favors and advice. Your family relies on you to keep everything running smoothly, and you do it all without complaining. But lately, you’ve begun to wonder what it’s all for. You want so desperately to take a moment to figure out what you want, but so many people are counting on you, and you can’t let them down.

Welcome folks! I am a queer therapist who focuses on working with folks surviving trauma and those in the LGBTQIA+ community. Experiencing trauma of any kind can have a profound effect on the way you view yourself, the world, and others. My primary focus as your counselor is creating a sense of safety, and prioritizing connection with you as a person. Healing from trauma is challenging, and my goal is to allow for a space that is both repairing and empowering. It can also be challenging to find therapists that are truly LGBTQIA+ affirming. I work hard to create an inclusive environment that allows you to explore your identity.

Rainbows represent HOPE. Effective counseling can be a journey of healing and hope: Talking out your thoughts and feelings in a confidential, non-judgmental, safe place; learning coping skills to heal and to more effectively manage your life’s stressful challenges; acquiring effective, healthy interpersonal skills that help improve the quality of your important relationships—your therapy at Rainbow Counseling can produce these awesome rewards for you or for you and your partner. Effective counseling can be very empowering and create hope when there seems to be no hope. Individual Counseling and Couples/Marriage Counseling sessions.

For some people, therapy is a scary word. There’s been a lot of stigma around it for a long time. But for others it is relief. It takes courage to begin therapy, whether it’s your first time or you’re returning after several years. Life transitions and events can sometimes lead to overwhelming feelings of stress and you need someone to help you navigate through these difficult times. I want my clients to find relief from what they are experiencing and give them an outlet to express themselves. Therapy is self-care, and I want clients to view it as such instead of something they “have to do”.

You who are highly sensitive and feel a lot, welcome! You'll explore more deeply with me than in traditional talk therapy. You’ve likely tried psychotherapy before but have noticed that the work has either gone nowhere or taken you only so far, or you felt misunderstood. With an uncanny and intuitive ability to really “get” people from many walks of life, I will invite you to go beneath your thoughts, connect with your body and emotions, and gently access the root of your emotional discomfort and hurts to facilitate noticeable shifts with each session.

I enjoy working with clients with many different types of concerns or areas in which they would like to grow. I have been working with children, teenagers, adults, couples, and families since 2007. I tailor my treatment approach to each client and I believe that each client is an expert on themselves. I have assisted clients with many different reasons for coming into counseling, and only some of those topics are highlighted here.

The world we live in is complicated and ever-changing, and the patterns we develop to address the challenges of life often cease to work for us...in fact, no strategy for living, relating to others, or to ourselves can ever work optimally forever. A depression, a personal life crisis, marital upsets and family conflicts are painful but often signal an important opportunity for self-reflection, assessment of "where I've been" in life, and the chance to create a new pathway for moving forward. This is where an expert therapist can be of value.

Therapy is learning about yourself and understanding what your triggers are, where they came from and how to best manage them. It's also about learning strategies that will help you cope with stressors specific to what is going on in your life. Whether you are looking for guidance with anxiety or depression, support in maintaining and managing a difficult relationship, tools to better manage your emotions, help with grieving a loss, confronting a fear or gaining insight, self awareness and confidence, you've found the right place and the results can be life changing.
