I use an integrative approach to counseling and psychotherapy to best serve the individual needs of each client. I understand that a strong therapeutic relationship, including a foundation of trust, is essential to the therapeutic process. Learning about my client and understanding the presenting issue(s), we work collaboratively to identify goals for therapy. A Treatment Plan, tailored to each client, involves a combination of cognitive, affective, behavioral, and somatic techniques. I draw from a variety of methodologies and techniques to incorporate what is most helpful in resolving current and long-standing issues. I am trained in a variety of therapeutic techniques, often using a systems perspective to address individual stresses and relational conflicts. I am also an EMDR Certified Therapist. EMDR is an integrative psychotherapy shown to be effective in helping people heal from the symptoms of early or recent trauma and other distressing life experiences. Stress can have physical, mental, and emotional symptoms. Unhealthy coping mechanisms that develop over time can magnify, rather than reduce, the negative effects of stress. Therapy can help build effective stress management skills to reduce stress from both acute and chronic life challenges, increasing the resources necessary to effect lasting change.

Hello, and Welcome! My name is Jessie Stempel, and I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Pennsylvania. After receiving my degree and training from Columbia University I have spent the last eight years working with individuals and families covering trauma, mental health, and relationship & family dynamics. In my work, I have focused on clinical services for adults, adolescents, and children suffering from the psychological impact of trauma, stress, grief, loss, and family dysfunction. I have provided treatment for mental health disorders such as anxiety, depression, and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). I support children, adolescents, and adults who are struggling to manage symptoms related to a mental health diagnosis, life stressors, and past traumas. I have done extensive work around grief and loss, as well as family & relationship dynamics. During our first session together we will explore what has brought you to therapy. We will talk about how you’ve been feeling and functioning in the time leading up to your coming to treatment. My goal for the first session is for us to build an initial connection, and together decide on how to move forward with treatment.
