About Philicia

Philicia Barbieri is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with ten years of experience. She creates a calm, steady space where people can slow down, breathe, and feel heard. Her work focuses on practical steps toward clearer thinking and better emotional balance.

Philicia combines Emotionally-Focused Therapy with cognitive behavioral strategies and mindfulness practices. Sessions often include guided breathing, simple grounding exercises, and conversations that help people understand the emotions driving their choices.

Background and approach

She also uses EMDR tools when trauma memories feel stuck and keep showing up in daily life. Her background includes crisis counseling, community-based programs, group therapy, and addiction recovery support. Those experiences inform a direct but compassionate style that meets people where they are.

She helps with anxiety, depression, relationship strain, addiction concerns, grief, and major life changes. Philicia trained in counseling at Carlow University and holds both LMHC and LPC credentials. She integrates coaching ideas for clients who want goal-focused work around career, life direction, or managing symptoms like impulsivity and panic.

Sessions blend short-term problem solving with deeper emotional work. Outside of clinical work she teaches yoga and uses meditation and movement as tools in sessions when helpful. She works with adults and couples, and offers multiple online formats to fit different schedules and needs.

Online support

How emotion-focused and behavioral methods fit online

Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people notice and name core emotions and attachment reactions, which can open the door to deeper connection and change even over video or phone. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors in daily life, a practical approach that translates well to online homework and brief check-ins.

Philicia treats finding the right approach as a team effort. She will talk with clients about goals, try techniques that match their needs, and adjust methods over time so therapy feels useful and clear. That collaborative process helps decide when to emphasize emotional work, skills training, or trauma-focused processing.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper emotion work and exercises that use voice and facial cues. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging support brief updates, between-session coaching, and maintaining momentum when schedules are tight. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives while keeping focus on goals and real-world progress.
