Therapist

I have a long background in working with people who have interacted with the criminal justice system. This has given me first hand experience in witnessing how trauma, anger, depression, and anxiety negatively impacts not just the individual but also their families and partners. It has also given me the opportunity to educate people on themselves and seeing the gratifying process of change that happens as a result.

Jeanine Stewart

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 13 mi away • Philadelphia, PA


I am curious and validating, providing a nurturing environment to talk openly and honestly about your struggles, strengths, weaknesses, needs, likes, and dislikes. I love helping people explore their unique and particular powers as well as how these powers impact their world and their relationships. As a passionate supporter of those who have been through unjust or otherwise traumatic experiences--including those experiencing discrimination based upon race or gender identity or sexual orientation--I am particularly interested in helping people gain skills for dealing with, and making sense of, the remnants of their pasts.

Having completed Bessel Van der Kolk's Trauma Research Foundation's Certificate in Traumatic Stress Studies in early 2025, I have a strong foundational understanding of the most cutting edge approaches to treating trauma. I am also comfortable using a combination of approaches, including Psychodynamic, Gestalt, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. I received an MSW from the University of Pennsylvania, a psychodynamically focused program, after which I completed Bryn Mawr's certificate program in psychodynamic psychotherapy. I have also completed 1 year of Gestalt Therapy training and the Acceptance and Commitment Therapy Immersion Program.

As an LCSW, my training emphasized the role of social environment--from the family to society at large--in how we construct our narratives, enabling me to help you make sense of what in your life is yours to own and what is a product of your environment.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Newtown Square

Finding the right therapist in Newtown Square starts with identifying what kind of support you need. Licensed therapists, counselors, and psychologists provide talk therapy for concerns like anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship stress. If you're looking for medication management, a psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner may be the right fit. Providers on Headway include both therapists and psychiatrists licensed in Pennsylvania, and each profile includes details about their specialties, approach, and availability.

With Newtown Square's proximity to Philadelphia and the surrounding Delaware County suburbs, you have access to a large pool of providers — many of whom offer virtual sessions in addition to in-person appointments. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their style and decide if they're a good match. Many providers on Headway also offer a free phone consultation so you can connect before committing to a session.

Therapy in the greater Philadelphia area can be expensive without coverage, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see an estimated session cost before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and many patients pay as low as $0 per session — though costs vary based on your specific plan and location.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
