I also conduct friendship therapy, which you can learn more about on my website.

Sometimes this presents as feelings of disconnection, depression, racing thoughts or anxiety, sometimes as substance use, self-harming behavior, or relationship problems.
I am psychodynamic and relationally oriented. I am also skilled in CBT, DBT and mindfulness-based interventions to help create stability and provide symptom relief where it is needed. When there is stability, therapy will often move towards deeper issues that drive behavior and impact our emotional lives and relationships.

When I was in grad school I was asked this question: why do you want to do therapy? My answer was immediate: "I want to alleviate suffering!" A more experienced clinician shared a perplexing truth with me: sometimes you can't, you can just sit with the person through it. Over the years I have been honored to hold space for my clients to share their stories of courage and pain. I started to see what she meant, and revised my motto: I want to alleviate suffering and when I can’t I want to create a soft place to land.

In our work together we will navigate immediate challenges but also find new insights and a deeper self-awareness that will help you develop a healthier relationship with yourself and others. I often draw from Cognitive Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and most prominently from a Psychodynamic approach to guide you through this process of change.

Hi, I'm Trish Pierzga, and I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with 6 years of experience. I received my master's degree in clinical mental health counseling from Walden University. Each session I will bring an understanding of how challenging life can be and the difficulty the choice to change can present. When I think about what I look for in a therapist myself, it is someone who listens, is not afraid to challenge me, and helps guide me through life's difficulties. I believe I bring this style to my own clients.

I work with adolescents and adults who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to move forward in their relationships or personal lives. I create a warm, welcoming space where therapy feels natural and collaborative, while still focused on real, measurable change. Having moved during high school and built my life across Philadelphia and the surrounding suburbs, I understand how transitions shape identity and connection. As a spouse and mother of two who has experienced anxiety, depression, and grief firsthand, I bring understanding, empathy, humor, and steady guidance to my work.

I have worked with a wide range of mental health concerns connected to trauma, including but not limited to: anxiety, depression, addiction, and relational issues.
I view psychotherapy as the ultimate practice of self-care. Sessions are a time to explore your inner self, your outer relationships, and evaluate how your past and present influence your future. I approach treatment though an existential, intersectional feminist, and person-centered lens – this means I consider gender, race, class, sexuality, belief, biology, ability, physicality, and life experiences during our work together.
