CLINICAL SERVICES
Therapy for Teens and Young Adults
Young people today face many complicated challenges including navigating losses, developing meaningful identities, overcoming insecurities, coping with anxiety and depression, managing academic stress, navigating family stress, developing healthy relationships, and healing from grief or trauma. Our highly skilled therapists understand the critical importance of creating a safe, trusting, and supportive environment where young people can explore themselves and the world of their experiences without fear of judgment. We use a wide range of art, talk, and somatic-based therapy tools to help adolescents, teenagers, and young adults learn skills to safely feel and express their emotions, build confidence, and develop their inherent strengths. We deeply respect the confidentiality of our young clients, but also work collaboratively with parents, schools, and educators to help our clients effectively navigate challenges, to create a plan for healing, and to thrive.

A workshop presented in partnership with Haley Purdy – Yoga Instructor and Certified Grief Professional.
​​
The holiday season is often a time of chaos, stress, and pressure—pressure to be joyful, celebrate, socialize, and maintain traditions. For those who are grieving, the energy of the holidays can feel overwhelming. The complexities of loss can be magnified during this time of togetherness, and the expectation to participate in the festivities often clashes with the natural desire to withdraw, reflect, and avoid the cheerfulness around you.
This special edition of Moving Through Grief will focus on navigating grief during the holiday season. Through supportive discussion, group exercises, breathwork (pranayama), guided visualization (Yoga Nidra), and gentle movement, this workshop provides an opportunity to step away from the holiday hustle and into a safe and compassionate community of grievers who “get it”.
We hope that attendees take away the following:
-
Clarity regarding how to honor your personal capacity and unique needs this holiday season.
-
Tools for navigating gatherings in ways that feel respectful of your grief.
-
A deeper understanding of what ritual and tradition mean to you this year.
-
Support from a community of fellow grievers.
-
A space to rest, tend to your pain, and to feel respite from the pressure to feel joyful.

*No yoga experience necessary. All movement practices will be simple and modifiable.

Gyneonc Cancer Support Group
Cancer is both physically and emotionally challenging. You need to make sense of all that is happening, but it is not always clear how to best do this. Even with the support of friends or family, some people feel very alone in the cancer experience. Often it is very helpful to join a support group where you can explore all that is happening as you navigate your unique cancer experience. We are proud to collaborate with Penn Medicine’s Chester County Hospital to support women who are currently in treatment for gynecologic cancer.
This group is specifically for cancer patients of Penn Medicine’s Chester County Hospital. If this group applies to you and you are interested in learning more, please contact Nicki Cowan MSW, LSW by phone at 609-525-4841 or email us at healingconceptsllc.com.
