Teen Therapists in Phoenixville, PA

If you had a magic wand, how would your life be different? Would your child’s anxiety, fear, and struggles vanish? Could parenting become easy and conflict-free? When your child or adolescent struggles with behavioral, emotional, and trauma issues, it affects the whole family and makes you feel powerless and overwhelmed. Welcome to Invictus Counseling! I work with children, teens, and parents to address behaviors, emotions, and trauma and develop goals to overcome those obstacles. There’s no magic wand – but there is a way to help, to nurture, and to improve.

In working with children and adolescents (ages 5-18) you accept the responsibility of meeting with a population who may not have consented to therapy. Although guardians act within the child's best interest, the intervention may not be something the adolescent supports at the time. With this understanding, my primary goal is to simply connect regardless of who walks through that door. Progress cannot occur without a strong and trusting therapeutic relationship. To ensure this result, I rely on genuineness and transparency with the client. My extensive experience, both as a School Counselor and Therapist, lead my counseling direction

It is my belief that each and every person is doing the best they can with the resources they have available to them. Oftentimes an unbiased listening ear, some empathy, encouragement, and perhaps a different point of view is all you need as a parent or child to help you feel empowered to take the necessary steps to move forward in a healthy and joyful way. I began my career working with young kids (and their families) in Early Intervention and from there realized the importance of empowering the family system as a whole to face the challenges in our daily lives.

**We are open for both virtual AND in person office visits** If you are trans, non-binary, gay, queer, or questioning it is my desire to create a safe space for you to find the support you are looking for. As a licensed therapist who is trans-identified, I am in a unique position to support those in the LGBTQIA+ community, their partners, parents and other family members. That is the goal of my counseling work and my practice, Arrive Therapy. http://www.arrivetherapy.com

I am a licensed psychologist with over 20 years of experience helping people recover from a wide range of challenges including self esteem issues, anxiety, marital conflict, depression, emotional eating, anorexia, bulimia, and stress related issues. I have expertise in treating children, adolescents, and adults. My approach is compassionate as well as goal focused. I would be happy to set up an initial consultation with you to give you clear and helpful feedback regarding how I can help you or your child.

I am a graduate of Temple University, and Chestnut Hill College with over ten years of professional experience. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist as well as a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. I am a mother, step mother, wife, and working professional. My counseling style is honest, nonjudgmental, and accepting. I pride myself on my relationships with my clients and try to avoid too much jargon so sessions may feel organic not robotic. You can expect me to use my sense of humor in sessions and encourage you to do the same if it helps.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Phoenixville, PA. I work primarily with individuals struggling with high levels of anxiety, complex trauma, PTSD, and adult children of addicted parents.

As a systemic therapist my goal is to offer you a safe and nonjudgmental space to explore your concerns and offer professional guidance in untangling the issues at play.

Hi there! I'm Angelina. Do you feel overwhelmed? Are you feeling unfulfilled or struggling to juggle work, relationships, and your own health? Or maybe you just want to focus on bettering yourself but you aren't quite sure where to start? Life can be difficult and stressful at times.

30 years experience working with children, adults, families and couples. I work to promote discovery of the deeper story within the individual and important relationships, further the finding of meaning, purpose, joy and connection in the presence of life challenges and help to apply these in daily life and relationships.

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.

There is nothing I love more than sharing the beauty of growth with my clients. Those who wish to deepen their understanding of their experiences and find new appreciation for their emotional realities inspire me every day.

Friends and family may be your biggest resource for support. However, you may be faced with challenges and struggles, that their advice can't address. Or, they may be part of the problem. That's why it's best to turn to a professional who can provide the skill needed to help you face these challenges in an objective, nurturing environment. My years of experience have given me the opportunity to counsel many individuals, couples and families, with a wide range of issues. Let me hear from you. I'll help you get back on track.

Starting therapy can be an overwhelming process; you took the first step! I am happy you're here. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania with a person-centered, humanistic approach that fosters an environment in which individuals can feel safe, seen, and heard. I am a Health at Every Size (HAES), gender-affirming clinician, and a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (and avid Swiftie). If you are looking to unpack, heal, and explore your relationship with yourself and/or with food, you come to the right place.

If you are tired of things as they are and need a change - it's time to take that step! Have you felt anxious, stressed, sad, lonely, misunderstood, disconnected, and overwhelmed? Have you come to find that your view of yourself and the way you experience relationships prevents you from finding happiness or meaning? Having a safe space - and taking the time to reflect is crucial. Reconsidering how you view yourself - and the way you relate to those around you - can shift your perspective. This can lead to personal enrichment and healthier boundaries in your life and relationships.

Simply stated, I believe the main goal of therapy is to help you feel and function better. I approach counseling/therapy as a collaboration between you and me. It is an active process. (I won't just sit, passively listening to you talk, for 45 minutes, occasionally nodding my head.) We will decide what the issues are, formulate effective strategies to make necessary changes in thoughts and behaviors (including learning new skills if necessary), and work together to implement successfully those strategies. I will (with your input) tailor the therapeutic process to best fit your needs.

Anxiety and stress affect everyone. Whatever the cause- relationships, school, work, medical issues, existential/spiritual crisis, loss of any kind- it can be overwhelming. Important obligations and events might be avoided, communication and connection compromised. Self-esteem, sleep, energy level, and mood all may suffer. We will collaborate to address the challenging areas of your life, manage stresses from your environment and body, and develop strategies to overcome unhelpful patterns of thought and behavior. Through this work it will be possible to experience relief, become happier, and evolve as a person.

In therapy, I try to understand and accept each person. That builds the client's self-esteem. Then I work together with the client to find the unique solution to his or her trouble, whether it's depression, or anxiety, or relationship problems. Different people need different kinds of help, so I don't limit myself to one kind of therapy. I'm trained in several, so the client and I pick the methods we think will help him or her the most. The relationship is one of mutual respect moving forward to overcome an obstacle to the client's happiness.
