Jocelyn Schiffhouer

Jocelyn Schiffhouer is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Pennsylvania. She brings 24 years of experience and a practical approach to problems that affect day-to-day life. Jocelyn aims to make therapy accessible and understandable for people who are worried about relationships, parenting, or trauma.

She focuses on relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, stress, anxiety, intimacy-related issues, parenting, self-esteem, and depression. Additional areas she addresses include blended family and communication problems, family of origin issues, post-traumatic stress, somatization, and narcissism-related concerns. Jocelyn has worked in varied settings with many different age groups.

Her counseling style is warm, open, and curious. Sessions tend to be direct and supportive, with room for creativity in how goals are approached. Jocelyn adapts plans to fit each person's situation rather than using a one-size-fits-all method.

She uses approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Somatic Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Therapy. Those methods inform how she helps people manage symptoms, change unhelpful patterns, and cope with past hurts.

Jocelyn encourages people to reach out when they are ready and recognizes that asking for help takes courage. She works with clients to set practical goals and move toward meaningful change.

Therapeutic approaches that translate to online work

Jocelyn uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors. CBT is practical and often focuses on small steps to change routines and reduce anxiety or low mood. Mindfulness Therapy is another approach she uses to help people build attention and self-awareness through simple breathing and noticing exercises, which can reduce stress and improve emotional regulation.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jocelyn collaborates with each person to figure out which methods fit their goals and preferences. She adjusts plans over time as needs change, so the approach evolves with the client.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not specified in the profile. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Licensed professionals can use these methods effectively over distance, and Jocelyn will help match the therapeutic style to practical needs and daily life.
