About Jocelyn

Jocelyn Schiffhouer is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Pennsylvania who uses a systemic approach to understand relationships and family patterns. She focuses on practical change and clear goals while keeping conversations warm and straightforward. Jocelyn draws on two decades of clinical work to help people facing relationship strain, parenting challenges, and trauma-related concerns.

Her background includes many settings and populations over 24 years of practice. That range has given her experience with depression, anxiety, mood disorders, and post-traumatic stress.

Background and approach

She has also worked extensively with family systems and trauma narratives, which shapes how she frames difficult events in therapy. In sessions she blends methods that fit the person and the problem. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors.

Mindfulness-based ideas support managing stress and staying present during hard moments. Jocelyn describes her style as open, warm, accepting, and curious. She brings creativity to treatment planning and prefers direct, practical steps that clients can try between sessions.

Her approach aims to make change feel doable rather than overwhelming. She pays attention to communication patterns, blended family issues, and problems rooted in family of origin. Jocelyn also addresses intimacy-related struggles, narcissism, somatization, and other concerns that affect daily life.

She will tailor conversations and plans to each person’s needs. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to availability. Jocelyn offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and preferences.

How systemic and CBT methods work online

Jocelyn often combines Systemic Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Mindfulness practices. Systemic Therapy looks at how relationships and family patterns affect current problems and helps identify small changes that shift interaction cycles. CBT focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety or low mood. Mindfulness Therapy offers simple attention and grounding exercises to manage stress and stay present during hard moments.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about symptoms, goals, and day-to-day life. Together they decide which methods to try first and adjust the plan based on what helps most over time.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility for people with busy schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction when visual cues matter. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat or text-based messaging can be used for brief updates, homework check-ins, or when someone prefers typed communication. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or parenting routines while using familiar therapeutic tools.
