Stress Therapists in Midtown Village, Philadelphia, PA

I enjoy working with people in challenging transitions, who struggle with loss or suffering, or who want to overcome a vulnerability. My style is warm and collaborative. Let's talk about how I can help you achieve growth, meaningful change, and relief from distress. Each of us has, inside, the ability to heal and transform. You can focus these inner resources to move your life forward. The good news is that it's all right there, inside you.

Anxious? Stressed? How does Christianity intersect with anxiety? I can help you! I have over 20 years of experience working with adults addressing issues related to anxiety, stress, grief and loss, trauma and depression. I have worked in a variety of mental health settings (residential, in-home services, alternative education, partial hospitalization).

Feeling overwhelmed or stuck in unhelpful thoughts or patterns? Struggling with disordered eating, anxiety, health concerns or stress? Taking this step requires courage, and I provide an inclusive, warm, compassionate space to help you feel secure, heard, and empowered. I listen to your unique story and goals, tailoring treatment to your needs while also using evidence-based approaches backed by science. We will work together to help you learn how to break free from unhelpful cycles, and develop skills to cope better, feel better, and have flexibility and autonomy to make lasting changes.

I believe in a strengths-based approach to treatment, which means I start by working to understand who my client is, what their concerns/goals are, and how they can best be approached. This allows me to collaborate with my clients to develop effective coping skills for substance use, anxiety, depression, adjustment to aging, grief, relationship stress and boundary setting, or reactions to trauma. I also have experience with queer populations (LGBTQ+). I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Pennsylvania with 10 years of professional experience in nonprofit and an additional 4 years in therapy practice.

If you are currently experiencing fear, stress and anxiety or suddenly shutting down and find yourself not knowing how to respond to the COVID19 pandemic, I can help. I have experience working with a wide variety of population ranging from college students to working business professionals. My goal is to walk with you, making you feel heard and understood. It is a gift to earn one's trust. I will listen to your story with great care and intentionality. My focus is to bring awareness, meaning & connection to making you feel known. I offer therapy to individual(s) and couples. I also provide group therapy.

Accepting new clients! I help people overcome difficulty and use it to grow and pursue a life of meaning and purpose. Sometimes we start by treating stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, career, or LGBTQ+ and other identity issues, and over time turn to deeper issues about the life you want to create, your identity, and your values. I’m a humanistic counselor, which means I’ll never tell you what to do and I’ll always empower you to make the choice that’s best for you. I use a collaborative, gentle approach that helps you connect with your intuitive sense of self and your intrinsic motivation to grow and do difficult things.

A secure relationship forms a building block for a healthy and meaningful life. If you're looking for help with your relationship, you need a therapist with real experience and specialized training. I empower my clients and their partners to improve their communication, develop shared goals, and step outside of their problematic patterns. I am certified in the Gottman Method of Couples Therapy (Levels 1 and 2). I am also an integrative therapist with extensive training in CBT for anxiety and depression, Cognitive Processing Therapy for PTSD, family systems, and attachment theory.

I provide teletherapy to clients in Pennsylvania and California (I am licensed in both states). I work with adults (18-65) who are struggling with trauma, grief, depression, anxiety, acute stress, substance use, and challenges with interpersonal relationships, major life transitions, coming out, gender, and queer identity development. I use EMDR therapy and client-centered, mindfulness-based, cognitive-behavioral interventions to support people in healing from traumatic experiences and unresolved grief by helping them reprocess disturbing, burdensome memories so that they become less intrusive, distracting, and painful.

Hi there, I'm Jeanine Pearson, a certified professional counselor with extensive experience across various settings including community-based outpatient services, schools, wraparound services, and residential treatment facilities. I wholeheartedly advocate for therapy as an essential form of self-care. In my practice, I adopt a holistic approach to treatment, recognizing the interconnectedness of emotional, mental, and physical well-being, and how they mutually influence one another.

Trauma. We all experience it at some point in our lives. It’s that thing that keeps you up at night. The thing that you distract yourself from by working extra hours, scrolling endlessly on Tik-Tok, self-harm, addiction, codependency. We run, fight, freeze, fawn, shut-down. Our bodies are built to adapt to the stress in our lives but what happens when the stress is too much? When we run into obstacles like bullying, abuse, illness, separation, loss, disasters? What happens when there is no one to witness our pain? We forget about the parts of ourselves that are creative, brave, intuitive, funny, smart, kind, gentle, strong.

Does it feel impossible to think your way out of an emotional reaction? Maybe stressful situations feel overwhelming and unmanageable. When you’re feeling stuck like this, it can be tough to find ways to cope alone. I understand how that feels and I am here to offer compassionate, non-judgmental, and confidential support to help you manage life challenges. With a background in K-12 school counseling, I also understand the unique challenges children and educators experience in schools.

Thanks for your interest in seeking therapy with me. If you are tired of being stressed, sad, unhappy, unheard, confused and need a place to process and make sense of your experiences, I offer a supportive and non-judgmental space to talk and to be heard. To me, therapy is a collaborative effort where we engage in conversations about yourself and your life in order to help you cope, heal, improve, and understand--where you can work on being the better you that you want to be. I appreciate your desire to be vulnerable and reflective.

Maybe you're tired of showing up for others in the hopes that they'll show up for you, but they don't reciprocate and you're left feeling drained. You may desire community but the thought of "what if everyone actually hates me?" keeps you lonely and anxious. You might be noticing some shifting in your desires for relationships or sexuality and you're feeling confused and scared. You might even want to cry or hide when thinking about bringing up hard conversations with loved ones about what you truly need. Regardless, you know you want support from an experienced and warm professional who understands that change is hard but worth it.

As a therapist, I am deeply committed to understanding your needs, strengths, and life experiences which have shaped who you are today. I value fostering an environment in which trust can be founded upon creating a safe, warm, nonjudgmental and collaborative therapeutic relationship. Together, we will develop coping skills and strategies to help you feel empowered to effectively manage your life concerns. You can expect that I will regularly seek your feedback and input during our journey together as I strongly believe you are the expert in knowing yourself best.

These are uncertain times. Therapy can be an anchor as we all weather the unpredictable circumstances of our lives and the world around us. It can be a place to grow, heal, or make changes in your live that feel difficult. I work with clients who need help managing anxiety, are feeling sad or confused, or are going through a hard time. I see my job as sitting next to you, seeing the world through your eyes, and helping you come up with the plan that's right for you. I come from a relational and social justice perspective and bring tools from narrative therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and mindfulness based stress reduction.

Life can be difficult at times, but it can be even more challenging when you have anxiety, stress, depressive thoughts, negative beliefs, and unhealthy patterns getting in the way of your success. I provide a safe space where we can process all of the uncomfortable thoughts and feelings that may arise in your daily life. It won't always be pretty, but that is when the healing begins. Let’s work together to explore yourself, dig deep and process the past, so that you can get the most out the the present. You don't have to feel stuck in your anxiety, negative patterns, or stress of everyday life anymore.

Therapy is an invaluable opportunity for individuals and couples to learn about themselves and the relationships that they want to cultivate. Whether you are thinking about working through a particular issue, hoping to gain clarity and focus in future decisions, or considering a short-term "check-up", I will work with you in a safe, non-judgmental space that cultivates compassion, healing, and growth. I believe in the power of building on each person/couple's strengths and discovering, through a collaborative approach, new ways to adapt and grow.

Oftentimes, people just need someone to listen to them, to help them work through an issue, and sort out their feelings. That's where I come in as a licensed psychotherapist as well as a medical social worker. I'm skilled at hearing what people are saying and helping them to figure out strategies for improving their situation. I work with a variety of clients ---men, women and children from all sexualities, gender identities, and races to help them with all sorts of issues. My clientele ranges in ages; however, a majority of my clients are in their early 30's.
