Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
 therapist: Sarah Sternlieb,
Online in Delaware, Pennsylvania (Online Only)
Do you feel like you’re stuck in the past, reliving what happened no matter how hard you try to move on? Do you have panic attacks, nightmares, or feel like your body is always on high alert? Experiences from childhood can continue to shape how you connect with others, see yourself, and move through the world. I offer trauma therapy for adults who are ready to stop feeling trapped by what they’ve been through. Using EMDR and other mind-body approaches, we’ll work together to calm your nervous system, shift painful patterns, and help your brain process what’s been holding you back. You don’t have to tell your whole story for healing to happen. Let’s take the first step toward something better. Book your free consultation today to get started.

Treatment Approach

  • Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) A structured therapy that uses guided eye movements to help process traumatic memories. It is widely recognized for treating PTSD and trauma-related conditions.
  • Internal Family Systems (IFS) Helps clients heal by working with different ‘parts’ of themselves, like inner critics or wounded children. It fosters harmony within the self.
  • Somatic Therapy Helps clients notice how emotions are stored in the body. It uses breath, movement, and awareness for healing trauma and stress.
Approach Description: EMDR is a primary approach I use, and I often integrate somatic and parts-based work. Our sessions are active and focused on helping you understand how your mind and body respond to past experiences, especially those from earlier in life, and why certain patterns keep showing up. We move at a pace that feels manageable, without needing to relive every detail, as you begin to feel more grounded and more in control.

Sarah Sternlieb Practice Description
SJS Counseling Services provides virtual trauma therapy for millennials in Pennsylvania and Delaware. I’m Sarah Sternlieb, LPC, a trauma therapist based in Bryn Mawr, and I help adults who look like they have it together on the outside but feel anxious, stuck, or worn down underneath due to experiences from childhood that still feel present today. Using EMDR and other mind-body approaches, I help your brain process what you’ve been carrying so it no longer feels like it’s taking over your life. Therapy with me is collaborative, paced around you, and focused on helping you feel more grounded, more connected, and more at ease in your day-to-day life.
