About Philicia
Philicia Barbieri is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with ten years of clinical experience. She practices in Pennsylvania and works with adults on a range of concerns including stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, relationship questions, grief, and anger.
Philicia uses clear, practical methods in sessions. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and habits. She also uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas for relationship work and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing to address trauma that feels stuck.
Her background includes crisis counseling, community-based services, and group therapy. Those settings shaped a straightforward, goal-focused style that aims to help people make steady changes. Sessions can include mindfulness practices, breathing techniques, and movement-based grounding drawn from her yoga experience.
She helps people who are working through addiction recovery, major life transitions, or ongoing mood and anxiety problems. Philicia aims to help clients notice patterns, practice new skills, and manage strong emotions like anger and frustration in daily life.
Clients meet with Philicia to set clear goals, try small behavior changes, and track progress over time. She works with individuals and couples and blends talk-based work with practical tools so people can use what they learn outside sessions.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Philicia commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and EMDR in her work. CBT focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going, and then testing small changes to see what helps. EMDR is a trauma-informed approach used to process memories and reduce the intensity of painful reactions when past events feel stuck.She also incorporates Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas for relationship work and uses mindfulness practices to help with regulation. Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what feels helpful and practical.
