Trauma & EMDR Therapy for Adults in NJ & PA
Break free from patterns that keep you stuck in anxiety, overthinking, and self-doubt

You don’t have to keep managing everything on your own. Therapy can help you feel more grounded, confident, and clear in how you show up in your life and relationships.

You might recognize yourself here…

  • You feel emotionally overwhelmed, even when nothing is “wrong”

  • You overthink everything and second-guess yourself

  • You’ve spent years being the one others rely on

  • You struggle to set boundaries without guilt

In our work together, you’ll begin to:

  • Understand how your past experiences shaped your current patterns

  • Learn how to regulate your nervous system (not just talk about it)

  • Process stuck experiences using EMDR and attachment-focused approaches

  • Feel more confident, grounded, and emotionally present

Meet Siobhan Strickhart, LPC

I specialize in working with adults in New Jersey and Pennsylvania who feel overwhelmed, emotionally disconnected, or stuck in patterns like people-pleasing, anxiety, and difficulty setting boundaries.

Many of my clients learned early on to prioritize others over themselves, often growing up in environments where their emotional needs were not fully supported. As adults, this can show up as self-doubt, overfunctioning in relationships, or feeling like you have to hold everything together on your own.

My approach is warm, direct, and trauma-informed. I focus on helping you better understand yourself, feel more grounded in your emotions, and show up with greater clarity and confidence in your life and relationships.

I provide virtual therapy for adults across New Jersey and Pennsylvania, including Somerset County, Hillsborough, Princeton, and surrounding areas.
