Teletherapy for Pennsylvania

TESTIMONIAL. Prior to meeting Pamela Goffman I was desperately seeking a psychotherapist who could help me with my deep depression and feelings of emptiness and loneliness. For a period of five years I counseled with four different therapists to seek peace in my life. My life was a mess during my five year search, I had hit rock bottom. It had to be divine intervention that lead me to Pamela Goffman. While the four previous therapists talked me through my immediate issue(s), Pamela quickly identified the core of my pain and we began our journey of healing together.

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....

Hello! I work with my clients using a Cognitive Behavioral, Psychoanalytic, Solution Focused Approach. Solution Focused means we try to solve issues and problems as soon as possible. I am also a trauma specialist and have worked with military and domestic violence victims for many years. Trauma is relative to each individual and shouldn't be compared. And there are ways to heal and thrive! I also work with sexual addiction, childhood behavioral issues, depression and anxiety, chronic pain , career coaching, and all female issues. I also offer premarital and marital counseling.

I am inspired by my clients' achievements in overcoming their pain from anxiety, depression, grief and loss, relationship conflicts, trauma and loneliness. The process of being truly heard and believed in has enabled my clients to feel empowered to make changes in their lives. By focusing on family patterns, personal history, and cognitive and behavioral interventions, clients develop the tools to find happiness within themselves and with their family, friends and colleagues.

I have over 38 years of experience in Clinical Hypnosis and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, I am a Masters prepared, Psychiatric Clinical Nurse Specialist, focusing on weight loss, anxiety, IBS, chronic pain , anger management and depression. I am certified in Hypnosis, and Albert Ellis' Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), which offers direct techniques to increase self esteem, reduce anger, depression, anxiety, shame and guilt, and interrupt long-standing self-sabotaging emotions and beliefs. My clients average 3-7 sessions, which run 60 minutes. I would describe myself as down to earth, easy to talk to, and compassionate.

This is not therapy this is an EXPERIENCE. In order to heal, you have to feel. We aren't avoiding the pain any longer. We are experiencing it...in a healing space. Welcome to the Journey.

My clients are dreaming of a better world but feel stuck in a world that is causing them great pain . They are passionate about change, both for themself and for the world around them, but might not know where or how to start. If this sounds like you, I want to offer you support in figuring out what change can even look like and how to reach towards it. I can't offer you "the answers" but I can offer you my belief in your ability to change yourself and your world, if you choose it. I view this change process as starting with self, connecting with community, and finally engaging in systems change.

Throughout life's journey, there are many paths, some more challenging than others. As we learn to make healthy habits part on of our lives, we become happier and more fulfilled in other areas. Counseling can help one work through many challenges such as: Stress, Depression, Anxiety, Work-Related Issues, Adolescent stressors (I have been working with adolescents for over 20 years in various settings), Parenting Issues, such as the unique challenges mother's of multiples encounter (I have personal experience with this, as I have twin boys), Grief and Loss,Pre-marital counseling,Marriage and Family difficulties, and Wellness.

I help adult women and men who are grieving and feeling stuck, whether the loss comes from the death of a loved one (including beloved pets) or a living loss associated with dementia, addiction, chronic illness , divorce, infertility, or life transitions. I partner with you to help you explore how you are feeling, find new ways to cope and make a plan for moving forward as you are ready. There is no right way to grieve and no predictable timeline. It is important to me that during our time together, you feel supported, safe, and accepted. Through teletherapy or in-person appointments I can guide you through your difficult time.

My clients sometimes don't know what else to do. They may have tried traditional interventions. They have anxiety, grief, pain , phobias, addictions, eating disorders. They may be children whose parents will do anything to help them. My clients may have heard about hypnosis but aren't sure what it is. They may be LGBT & find a society that won't let them be who they are. My clients may be bullied & want to know how to "fight" back. They want to feel better, but more than that..how to be well, how to take this tool of Hypnosis out of their "toolbox" & use it for life. They believe in mind over matter. They are going to contact me!
