So, Dr. J FINALLY admitted that she is not in fact every woman, and it is NOT all in her and hired someone to revamp the site (LOL), and it looks soooooo good!

Please go check it out and let us know what you think!

Awakening Change is a specialized therapy practice dedicated to meeting people exactly where they are in their healing journey. Founded in 2018, we’ve built our practice around a simple truth: effective therapy requires speaking your language.

We've been nominated for the Gusto Impact Awards! 🎉

Since 2018, Awakening Change has been bringing mental health care to people who need it most across PA & NJ. We use telehealth to reach clients in rural areas and accept insurance, so cost isn't a barrier. We work actively to decrease mental health stigma in our communities. And we supervise emerging therapists, ensuring quality care for generations to come.

This award would help us train our clinicians in cutting-edge care AND create grants for people falling through insurance gaps—those between jobs, going through divorce, aging out of parents' plans. People in crisis who have nowhere else to turn.
Mental health care should be accessible to EVERYONE. That's why we do this work. 💙
