Somatic Therapists in Queen Village, Philadelphia, PA

I feel it is an honor and privilege to serve as a therapist. Creating a partnership with clients, I work to provide a safe, warm, nurturing and empathic space. My goal as an EMDR therapist is to work collaboratively with clients- creating transformative healing and change, and increasing self understanding and self compassion. I currently have availability for intensive EMDR- individually tailored (half, full or multi day therapy) in person at my Philadelphia location or online (PA and NJ residents).

I specialize in working with achievement-oriented folks across the gender and sexuality spectrum who may experience anxiety, relationship stress, CPTSD, complicated grief, substance abuse, codependency, and difficulty with emotionally immature parents. I have 10+ years of experience working with adults in Philadelphia. My work with clients is relationally based and is influenced by somatic experiencing, Internal Family Systems, and mindfulness techniques.

Welcome. I believe therapy is an avenue of exploration that holds potential for individual and collective growth. I offer an integrated, holistic approach as a somatic psychotherapist. As a healing centered therapist, I am committed to providing a space that values and honors the ways each of us have learned to survive while believing in each person’s right and ability to thrive. Whether you are interested in healing past wounds/trauma, working with your relationship to self and others, managing depression or anxiety, or increasing your capacity for aliveness, I will support your goals with curiosity and compassion.

Hi! I am Dr. Caryn. I am a licensed health psychologist and Duke trained health coach with over 20 years of experience working with patients with chronic health conditions like chronic pain, migraine, autoimmune, diabetes/pre-diabetes, and sleep problems. As a health psychologist, I work at the intersection of physical health and mental health (because it’s all related!) and treat both using the best of mind/body medicine. My typical client is sick of feeling sick and unsupported by the healthcare system They want to feel successful and in control of their health so they can break out of the never ending cycle of (dis)ease.

I’m a psychotherapist and EMDR Practitioner based in Philadelphia. I help adults from all over the US heal from trauma using talk therapy, EMDR therapy, and healing intensives. If you’ve experienced trauma, you’ll know just how much hold it can have over your life. Daily flashbacks, isolation, anxiety, nervousness, nightmares, and insomnia can bring life to a halt. Using EMDR, I've seen amazing results with my clients.

Life can be difficult at times, but it can be even more challenging when you have anxiety, stress, negative beliefs, and unhealthy patterns getting in your way. 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.

Do you frequently think “what’s wrong with me?” or “no one likes me" or "the world is completely against me”. Does everything feels like an uphill battle or a heavy weight on your shoulders? Maybe you feel empty all the time, or like you have a lump in your throat. Perhaps you keep on making the same mistakes. Mistakes that cause you, and at times others, hurt. If any of this resonates with you, first off, realize that nothing is "wrong" with you. You need a non-judgmental ear who gets where you are coming from, can help guide you through these feelings, and give you tools and hope.

It can be hard to face our feelings, and sometimes challenging to put them into words. Our deepest, most painful experiences can be overwhelming and scary. I’m here to hold a safe space to help you work through whatever issue that is troubling you. My aim as a therapist is to help you find ways to heal and access a more authentic self. I will help you find your strengths, and guide you through areas in your life that need change. If you are struggling with an eating disorder, disordered eating, body image concerns or chronic dieting, I would love to help.

Hi I’m Devon and I’m glad you’re here. I’m a master’s level counselor with a degree specialized in trauma treatment. When we have experiences that change the way we relate to the world, it can be difficult to adjust. I’d consider it an honor to be part of your journey toward healing and re-discovery. It is my goal to provide you with a container to process and explore your emotions. I can also teach you skills to help establish a sense of safety within yourself and your environment.

It is hard being a person. We often engage in patterns of feeling, thought and action that reliably lead to suffering. These patterns arise in response to difficult and even traumatic experiences. They made good sense at some point, but now get in the way, causing anxiety, depression, shame and frustration. I work with people to bring increased awareness to the human potential caught up in old patterns, and via that awareness, to an enhanced sense of choice and self confidence and ease. My work draws on your wisdom, as well as my own.

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.
