Therapists for college students near University of Pennsylvania
WARNING: HIGHLY INTERACTIVE THERAPIST! I work with clients 13+ from a wide range of genders and backgrounds. Most of my clients are dealing with some combination of anxiety, depression, relationship stress, or questions about sexuality and gender. Many are coming out of their first big break up or first major loss. I have a particular focus in “men’s” issues, relationships and couples work, and on addressing topics we were never taught to explore — namely sexuality and grief. Some of my clients are deeply religious others are atheists. Some have never dated others are active BDSMers. My style is highly interactive. We’ll work to address faulty beliefs and longstanding BS. Together, we can talk about anything from anxiety to compulsive porn use, from kink to grief. I have a particular focus in “men’s” issues, couples counseling, and grief. I won’t promise you’ll “find happiness.” That would be like trying to sell you keys to your own car. All I promise is to be your teammate. If what you seek is a combination of empathy and strength, a nonjudgmental space, an emphasis on connection over analysis, and a confidant who will not waver then I invite you to book a consultation below.
You're not going crazy! The stress of our early 20's and college years is woefully underestimated. It is often the time when we will experience our first serious bout of depression, or paralyzing anxiety. You may have managed to keep some of this at bay through high school, but now you feel like you've hit a wall - just when you were "supposed to be" independent. I specialize in empowering young women to navigate this period of transition with clarity, insight, and choice. It is often said that crisis creates opportunity. Now is your opportunity. Let's talk!
I am a board-certified, academically oriented child, adolescent, and adult psychiatrist who provides psychotherapy and medication management services to clients located in Pennsylvania and New Jersey. I use a comprehensive, collaborative, and holistic approach when working with clients and their families. I am a LGBTQIA-affirming provider and consider it a privilege to work with members of this diverse community. I have particular interest and experience working with trans and gender-diverse youth and young adults. I have extensive experience working with college students, graduate/professional students, and young professionals. I understand the unique challenges of this developmental phase of life and enjoy assisting clients make the most out of their experience. For some teenagers and adults, I also provide psychodynamic psychotherapy. I am in-network with Aetna for Pennsylvania and Maryland residents. All other patients will be self-pay.

I created this practice, mktherapy, in order to provide a space that believes in affirming and celebrating queer and trans identities. I specialize in working with fat identified folks who are in recovery and healing from fatphobic familial and cultural structures. I have additional interests in working with people coming into queer and trans identities later in life, intergenerational and ancestral trauma, as well as religious and spiritual trauma.
Sometimes there comes a point in our lives when we realize that we haven't been living fully and with intention. This awareness can stem from a traumatic event, a betrayal, a stressful life transition (good or bad) or simply an aha moment. It is at this point we have a choice, continue as we always have, or do something different. Unfortunately we don't always know what that "something different" is and need help unlocking the possibilities and potential that have always been within us. Hi and welcome! My name is Jodi Silverman and I am a holistic integrative practitioner with the goal of holding safe space for your healing, learning and growth. As a fellow human and a consciousness guide, I am passionate about supporting people in their journey to find meaning, purpose and connection in life through learning to trust their own intuition. I do this through a variety of psycho-spiritual and transpersonal approaches including psychotherapy, energy healing and embodied mindfulness. Although I am trained in several evidence based treatments, I rely on intuition and the collaborative relationship between us to guide interventions and approaches.
My intention is to guide you into your next phase of life that's not only authentic and free but deeply fulfilling. Within our sessions, we’ll create a sanctuary where you can openly explore your desires and aspirations with curiosity and the space to be yourself. Together, we can address: - Managing and easing worry, fears, and anxieties. - Exploring better understanding and coping with low energy and depressed mood. - Relationship dynamics, including familial, romantic, and professional. - Navigating life transitions and the nuance of finding comfort in your new normal. - Uncovering pathways to personal development, through identity exploration, boundary-setting, existential questions, and processing trauma. With each individual's desires being unique, my role is to support you through the challenges and celebrations of life while ensuring that every step you take is moving you towards a life that truly aligns with what you value most. Our collaborative work will empower you, connecting you with your internal strengths and innate healing abilities, to realize your vision with confidence and clarity. Central to our sessions are effective modalities like Internal Family Systems (IFS), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), enriched by holistic philosophies. For those interested, I weave in breathwork, mindfulness exercises, guided meditations, and gentle movement, providing a comprehensive toolkit for healing and wellness. I cater to both adolescents and adults, customizing our sessions to meet you on your journey, aiming to cultivate: - An enriching connection with your inner wisdom and compassion. - Authenticity and comfort in your interactions, founded on self-acceptance. - The joy of freely expressing your true self, enhancing intimacy in all relationships. - Routine practices that propel you towards the life you desire. - Clear understanding of your values and future aspirations, grounded in self-trust. Outside of my work as a holistic psychotherapist, my passions include nature, dance, travel, yoga, and time with loved ones which inspire my approach to holistic wellness. I accept Aetna & Cigna Insurances as well as private pay. If you're considering taking steps toward growth and fulfillment, I invite you to schedule a consultation. Together, we will discover the vibrant essence of your being. I am currently offering virtual sessions.

Students come to me for various reasons. Sometimes it is to understand why they are feeling the way they are feeling, to understand unwanted symptoms, or behaviors, to understand why their motivation has shifted, or to learn strategies to manage symptoms. I specialize in trauma and health

Some of us hold onto “the hurt” for years and years until it becomes so faint— so normalized— we lose the ability to fully remember what life unburdened by “the hurt” can feel like. As a trauma therapist, my goal is to help you regain autonomy, awareness, and understanding over your life, your relationships, and your path forward. Each and every part of you has played a role in helping you survive “the world as it is.” My goal is to help you discover the slice of “the world as it should be,” mobilizing you towards finding healing community, chosen family, or space where you can flourish— where hypervigilance and fear melt away. I work best with fellow creatives, performers, organizers, underdogs, self-starters, former gifted kids, healers, survivors, and meaning seekers. I’m not easily shocked or appalled— you don’t have to be ashamed of your lived experience, and you are never going to be “too much.” All who are Queer, Trans, -of Color, (Dis)abled, & Neurodiverse are especially welcome. I have seven years of experience in supporting people on their life transitions and mental wellness journey as a life coach & case manager prior to becoming a Licensed Social Worker. I’m been training and practicing with Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy since 2021 for both individuals and couples. I’m also cohort member of the Embody Lab’s next Integrstive Somatic Trauma Therapy Certification for Fall 2025. If you are a survivor of sexual assault or other crimes of a similar nature in Pennsylvania, I may be able to offer net-zero fee therapy under PA’s Victims Conpensation Assistance Program. I’m here for the short-term or the long-haul— your healing journey is in your hands, and you determine the pace and speed we go. If you need someone to press you forward and hold you accountable, I can do that. If you need someone to just “hold space” until you’re ready to do something later, I often do that too. The door is always open. Talk soon? P.S. I unironically and unapologetically LOVE em dashes— hands off, GenAI!

When I opened A Better Life Therapy in 2013, I had one goal: to create a practice where people feel truly welcomed and supported. In my own search for a therapist, I was surprised by how difficult it was to even get a call or email returned. I wanted to change that. At A Better Life, you’ll always hear back from us , whether you call, email, or schedule online. We believe finding a therapist should be simple, and you deserve to know that someone is here for you. (And yes, it’s true that I’ve been known to write prospective clients back at midnight just to make sure they could rest assured that there was an appointment available to them.) I also wanted to create a space where I am confident the therapist you are working with is not only highly trained to support you but genuinely cares about what you’re going through and where you want to go. Over time, A Better Life has grown into something even bigger than I imagined: a family practice for mental health. Much like a trusted family doctor’s office, we’re here for your whole family across the lifespan. We love being able to support parents as they navigate the transitions of raising children, help kids work through friendship struggles, guide young adults through the stress of college and career, strengthen couples as they build their relationships, and stand alongside families as they cope with loss or the challenges of aging. In short: we want to walk with you through all of life’s moments -the messy and beautiful — from birth to your second act, and every stage in between. Welcome to our practice. We hope to see you around!
