Phoenix Center for Experiential Trauma Therapy
Treatment Center, DSW, LCSW, BCD, CGP, FAAETS, TEP
We are a trauma therapy practice specializing in alternatives to traditional talk therapy for PTSD, grief/loss, and addiction. We offer various different treatments including EMDR, IFS, psychodrama, gestalt, expressive arts therapies, and more. The Phoenix Center for Experiential Trauma Therapy is named after the legendary figure of the phoenix that dies and is reborn from its own ashes – it is a symbol of transformation and resilience. The phenomenon of growing after experiencing trauma has been labeled “Post-Traumatic Growth”. While we cannot change the past, we can change how past experiences live within us.
We also offer low-cost options with our graduate interns.

Karolina Lazarov
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LBC, NCC, PMH-C
Are you stuck in feeling unfulfilled, overwhelmed, tired, or stressed out? I work with young women, moms, and moms-to-be facing many different challenges throughout their lives. Whether you’ve been in therapy before or you are new to this, you are here because you need time and space to reconnect with yourself, to find answers to your struggles and to create a more balanced life where you and your well-being are a priority. Supporting you in this journey is the end goal of my entire practice.
I work with women who want to uncover their strengths, build up their resilience, learn healthy coping strategies and discover what’s holding them back from becoming their best selves. Together we will explore your feelings, thoughts, emotions, and challenges and help you build the kind of life, motherhood, career, and relationships that you want.
Whenever you are ready to start, I am here for you. You will leave our sessions feeling validated, empowered, and stronger knowing that you have a plan and concrete strategies to use in your daily life. I know that starting therapy is not easy but together we can make it work! Call me for a free consultation and take the first step to feeling better.

Sarah Sternlieb
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
You wake up from another nightmare about something that happened when you were a kid, and now you’re exhausted before the day has even started. A memory from childhood pops up while you’re trying to get through your day, and you can’t get it out of your mind. Your boss speaks to you in the same tone your parent used when you were a kid, and you feel yourself tense up.
You’ve tried to put what happened behind you, but it keeps finding its way into your life now. You’re tired of your childhood having this much power over your life.
I specialize in EMDR therapy for adults across Pennsylvania and Delaware who are struggling with what happened in childhood. EMDR can help you work through these experiences so they don’t have as much power over your life today, without having to talk about everything that happened in detail.
If you’re ready for things to feel different, schedule a free consultation to see if we might be a good fit.

CHRISTIE BAUR PSYCHOTHERAPY
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LPC
Are you an ambitious, high-achieving teen or adult who can’t seem to quiet the relentless inner battles? You push yourself and show up for everyone, but still find yourself caught in spirals of self-doubt and the nagging sense that you’re never quite good enough. The racing thoughts and constant pressure to hold it all together are exhausting, and you’re tired of anxiety stealing yet another moment of your life?
I get it—I’ve been there.
If you’re ready to slow your thoughts, feel grounded and confident, and finally quiet the noise, I’m here to help you get there.
My goal is to provide a protected, collaborative space—one where you can exhale, explore, and work through things at a pace that feels right for you. You can bring your whole self—your challenges, questions, and hopes—and know you’ll be met with curiosity, compassion, and respect. Therapy with me isn’t about judgment or “fixing” anyone—you don’t need to be fixed—it’s about building insight, practical tools, and confidence so you can live a fuller, freer life. Together, we’ll navigate anxiety, self-doubt, life transitions, and more, using evidence-based strategies with empathy and support—so you can feel empowered, resilient, and connected to yourself.

Michelle Bloom, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD, PsyPact
I specialize in working with clients from the ages of 14 to adulthood, who are inquisitive, self-aware, and deeply motivated to understand themselves better, improve their relationships, move into a place of self-respect/love, and develop adaptive ways of coping, communicating, and problem-solving. I have worked for many years with children, teens, adults, and families dealing with trauma and change and searching for authenticity, often in a world that values the superficial. Therapy is a process of seeking meaning, managing change, letting go of what no longer makes sense for who we are and what we want, healing, and growing.
I am most suited to help clients dealing with loss, prior childhood trauma, depression, anxiety, ADHD, identity (in all its manifestations), divorce, self-esteem, grief, and emotional regulation. The goals are different for everyone, yet I believe that we all want to feel more balanced, more joyful, and more healthfully connected with others.
As a psychologist with 25 years of post-doctoral experience, I’ve been exposed to various modalities, settings, and clients dealing with differing issues, life changes, and developmental expectations. I’ve also found that my professional practice has evolved as I’ve matured, raised children, and survived losses and challenges. We are in this together.
