Approach Description: At PHL Therapy Collective, an eclectic approach is common to provide greater possibilities for change with clients. We are client-focused, so we are responsive to your needs and your language and understanding of yourself. You can expect elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Psychodynamic, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy as well as mindfulness and the understanding that the body affects the mind and vice versa. Regularly weekly 50 minute sessions are the norm but as therapy progresses frequency may change based on your needs. Because we are systemically based, individual therapy can at times include bringing in a family member or partner and family or relationship therapy can include different groupings, depending on the focus of therapy at different times.

Brian Swope Practice Description
Led by Brian Swope, LMFT, PHL Therapy Collective also has a pre-licensure therapist and several graduate interns and practicum students to broaden the specialities and scope of the practice to serve and care for a larger population (age, race, and sexual and relationship orientation) seeking to address their mental health concerns. Interns provide lower fee services and are supervised by Brian Swope and interns who go on to become private practice therapists are free to bring their clients with them. Teens and adults, including senior citizens, can expect a compassionate and safe space to build trust and explore the issues that bring them to therapy, whether it be trauma or any past experiences with present day consequences; deepening their understanding of themselves; and changing how they relate to the world around them. Therapy can be short - 10 to 15 sessions, or extended, depending on your needs and interest. Client-focused means you are the expert on yourself. The role of the therapist is to provide a supportive outside perspective, not a “devil’s advocate”, that allows us to take a longer view - past and future - to help guide you toward your own goals.
