Women's issues
over the life cycle remain an abiding focus in my practice.
I began my career as a social worker in 1975 and received my certificate in psychoanalysis and psychotherapy ten years later. While my work has evolved over the years, it remains rooted in the beliefs that individual issues need to be understood within a social context and that true change emerges from the self-understanding which develops in the clinical dialogue between patient and therapist.

Women have specific concerns and needs that can seem to change rapidly, such as mood and body image concerns during monthly cycles. Later on, Trying to Conceive (TTC), or the many emotions that come with Pregnancy, as well as Pregnancy losses and terminations, can be quite challenging and leave you feeling unsure who you can open up to without judgment and unsolicited advice. Birth Trauma, Postpartum Depression, and Anxiety can also feel quite scary and talking to a knowledgeable Therapist in Women's Emotional Health can help you feel validated in your thoughts and fears, reduce guilt, and help you see that you are doing your best!

Life can be overwhelming and draining. Especially when you are grieving the loss of a part of yourself or a loved one who has died. We grieve the loss of relationships, friendships, people, and experiences. Please know that grief has no time limit; you just need to learn how to live in a new way. Life will not always be easy, but it may become easier. Traumatic experiences effect people in different ways throughout their lives. Now is the time to reach out if you suffered a trauma and are looking to process how that trauma may now be affecting you. Lastly, families go through changes and each transition requires a new set of skills.

Hello my name is Cheryl Foxworth. I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and AAMFT Approved Supervisor in Pennsylvania. For over 20-years I have worked with families in distress. I believe that most often the negative experiences we have in childhood corrupts our true sense of being. These early childhood issues often results in a disconnect with our true self. How tragic this can be but there is hope. I would love to think that "What does not kill us will only make us stronger. " This is a quote from philosopher Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche that has become my personal mantra. We must learn how to live beyond our hurt....

I believe that therapy should be a safe and transforming atmosphere that just flows comfortably. I love helping individuals find their voice, set healthy boundaries and identify coping techniques to increase their self-worth/self-esteem. I work to empower clients in an individual or group setting to enhance and improve their overall well-being by customizing therapy to their specific needs. I do not believe therapy should be a “one-size-fits-all approach.” Every one processes differently, and it's important to acknowledge that and provide care accordingly.

Women's Issues Therapists
How do you encourage a woman to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual may be suffering, and what effects it has on them, should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
How can women prepare for therapy?
Women can prepare for therapy by being willing to talk about their past experiences and their private thoughts. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. Between sessions, it can be useful to write down notes about their reaction to a given event or how they felt at a particular time.
How long does therapy for women’s issues often last?
As with any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual and the challenges they face. Therapy types like Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Prolonged exposure therapy (PET), and Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. In some cases, such as for women with eating disorders, residential treatment may be recommended for an individual who is judged to be at high risk of self-harm. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.
How can women overcome stigma around specific challenges in order to seek therapy?
Women dealing with domestic abuse, sexual assault, eating disorders, and any other number of troubles may feel a stigma around seeking help. It’s important to remember that these issues are not uncommon and there is no shame in getting help for them. Therapy is confidential, and women can talk about their experiences without fear of judgment. Seeking therapy can be a courageous and liberating act, and an important step toward healing and recovery.
