Finding the right therapist is about finding a balance between someone who truly "gets" it and someone who can help you map out the way forward. With over a decade of experience navigating the complexities of the school system—from the classroom to the counseling office and special education therapy—I’ve dedicated my career to being both a safe harbor and a catalyst for growth. My approach is rooted in deep empathy, but I am also firmly goal-oriented. Whether we are navigating a specific diagnosis or a difficult life transition, I believe that therapy should provide you with both a sense of peace and a clear sense of direction.
Areas of Expertise & Passion
Children & Adolescents: I spent ten years working with students facing a wide range of challenges, including autism, anxiety, oppositional defiance disorder (ODD), and emotional disturbances. I understand the unique pressures of the school environment and am passionate about helping kids find their footing and flourish.
Young Adults: The transition into adulthood can feel like navigating without a map. I help young adults build the confidence they need to define their own version of success and tackle the "what comes next" with resilience.
Mothers & Postpartum Support: Motherhood is a profound transformation, often accompanied by overwhelming stressors. I provide a supportive space for postpartum moms and those juggling the relentless demands of family life to find balance, reclaim their identity, and prioritize their mental well-being.
My philosophy: I believe every individual deserves a space where they are fully seen and heard. My mission is to provide that safety while empowering you to reach the milestones that matter most to you.If you’re looking for a partner in your journey toward growth—or a steady hand for your child—I’m here to help. Let’s get to work.
I encounter clients where they are. As we build a relationship, we explore coping skills. I believe that small progress is still progress.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Board Certified Art Therapist specializing in maternal mental health. Perhaps you had your first baby and find yourself overwhelmed with the transition of taking care of a newborn. Or maybe you are a mom of 3 and find yourself feeling depressed and anxious. From my clinical experience spanning over a decade, as well as my personal experience as a mom, I can help you gain tools to manage your emotions and get stronger as a mom.
Currently accepting summer 2026 clients for short-term therapy. Some availability for longer term clients.
I want to make the task of being human a little bit easier. That's it. That's the whole goal.
I trained in Gestalt therapy through a three-year program, Nonviolent Communication, and improvisational comedy and performance — not because they're quirky credentials, but because they each taught me something real about how people change, connect, and find themselves. I also bring a background in alternative education and hold social location (race, gender, class, dis/ability) as foundational to understanding how we experience the world.
I specialize in trauma, grief, LGBTQIA+ identity, gender dysphoria, maternal mental health, anxiety, and the work of becoming more fully yourself. Here and Wow Therapy is a space where that work is taken seriously — and can occasionally be a little fun.
Greetings and thank you for stopping by my profile, I am Lidia. In my therapeutic practice, I aim to offer a space to slow down and reconnect with your inner resilience. I provide a warm, nonjudgmental environment where we can explore your experiences, honor your emotions, and build practical strategies that help you feel more grounded and empowered. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, relationship challenges, grief, or a sense of disconnection, my goal is to walk alongside you with empathy and curiosity as you create meaningful, lasting change.
Welcome! I'm Kerriann and I became a therapist because I love helping others to become the best version of themselves possible. My clients choose me because I'm warm, gentle, and help them to live authentic and fulfilling lives. I'm a licensed therapist (LCSW-C), a board-approved supervisor, and received my MSW from the University of Maryland SSW. I have extensive training in my areas of specialty, which are grief and loss, parenting, and anxiety.
I’m committed to forging meaningful connections with my clients and fostering a safe,
supportive environment where you can truly be yourself. My passion lies in guiding people of all
ages and stages through their thoughts, feelings, and emotions, helping them communicate and
navigate life’s complexities. Life is full of transitions that we aren't always prepared for. Starting a new job, living on your own, making new friends, dating, graduations, college, marriage, death, divorce, etc. These life events can come with new feelings and feeling lost. In my career as a counselor, I've worked to help people of all ages and stages navigate life's milestones and obstacles.
Together, we can start building a better sense of self and a stronger identity. Some things we may practice:
- building boundaries
- prioritizing self-care
- identifying core values and beliefs

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Philadelphia, PA
Finding postpartum therapists in Philadelphia starts with choosing someone whose experience matches the support you want. Postpartum concerns can include postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. As you compare therapists, look for training in perinatal mental health, listed experience with pregnancy and postpartum care, or credentials like PMH-C, which signals specialized training in perinatal mental health. A therapist’s bio can also show how they describe their approach, who they commonly work with, and what you can expect in sessions.
In a large city like Philadelphia, the number of options can make the search feel harder to narrow. Location may matter if you prefer in-person care near Center City, South Philly, West Philly, or another neighborhood, especially when factoring in transit, parking, or time between appointments. Virtual therapy can also be a practical option for new parents managing infant care, physical recovery, and changing schedules. Before booking, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation to help you decide if the fit is right.
Therapy in Philadelphia can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before your first appointment. Headway makes that process easier by helping you find postpartum therapists who match your preferences, take your insurance, and are accepting new patients. You can review therapist bios, see estimated out-of-pocket costs after entering your insurance details, and book directly when you’re ready.
