Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in Newtown, PA

I am a Licensed Therapist with nearly 25 years of experience helping children, adolescents, and families build emotional resilience and create healthier relationships. Whether you are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck in the same patterns, you do not have to navigate it alone. Having served as a clinical director in the past, I am deeply committed to providing direct care and creating a supportive environment where my clients can thrive.

Taking the step to begin therapy takes courage, and I believe the relationship between therapist and client is the foundation of meaningful change. I'm Dr. Kimberlee Kaercher, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and founder of Lumax Counseling Services, LLC. I hold a Ph.D. in Forensic Psychology and a master's degree in counseling, and I have supported children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families across school and clinical settings. I provide a professional, respectful, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel genuinely understood. My background is somewhat unique and informs everything I do. Years of experience as an educator and special education teacher, along with my training in forensic psychology, have given me a deep understanding of behavior, development, trauma, and the many factors that shape a person's life. I bring that perspective into the therapy room with warmth, professionalism, and genuine care for the people I serve.

Whether you are working to strengthen your relationship, healing from trauma, managing anxiety or depression, facing the challenges of a cancer diagnosis, or simply feeling stuck, you don't have to face it alone. I would be glad to answer any questions you may have and to talk with you about how we might work together. I look forward to hearing from you and supporting you on the path toward healing and growth.

I am a direct, solution- oriented mental health therapist with over 30 years helping people navigate mental health challenges

I help individuals and couples navigate life transitions, relationship challenges, stress, and personal struggles so they can build confidence, find clarity, and create meaningful change. My passion for counseling began after seeing a family member face mental health challenges, which showed me the importance of having a safe, supportive space to be heard and understood. If you are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or ready for a new chapter, therapy can help you recognize your strengths, develop new tools, and move forward with greater hope.

I have been practicing therapy for several years (licensed for almost 2) and the more I do it the more I enjoy it. I enjoy hearing people's stories and watching them change and progress in many different ways. I like to ask questions, but am not afraid to challenge something or make a joke at times. I have worked in the drug and alcohol field for several years and in that field I encountered many different mental health conditions.

A warm and intentional place to lay down what you’ve been carrying, feel truly seen, and gently reconnect with the parts of yourself that are ready to heal and grow.
