Dr. Jeannine Cicco Barker, PsyD, ATR-BC

Welcome todes! Thank you for being here. Your healing is so important! ♡

I am a licensed clinical psychologist in the states of PA and NY, and I am based in Philadelphia. Through PSYPACT, I am fully authorized to provide therapy in most states in the United States. My practice, Metztli, offers individual therapy, couples therapy, and family therapy, and centers BBIPOC, the LGBTQ+ community, immigrants, migrants, and children of immigrants. I specialize in the treatment of anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, eating concerns, trauma, college/grad school/career concerns, and healing from internalized oppression. I work with individuals, couples, and families. As a couples therapist, I am Gottman Level 2 trained and also have a background in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy.

With nearly 20 years of experience in the field of mental health, I am honored to support nuestra hermosa comunidad in my practice. I am a decolonial psychologist and I  approach this work from a foundation rooted in collective liberation. Sometimes our relationships cause pain, sometimes trauma harms us, and the very act of living in this world can cause suffering. And sometimes, we are trying the best we can to cope and survive, but these ways of coping may also hurt us. Therapy can be a place where you can begin to reclaim your wholeness, honor your needs, and learn listen to your own voice. You may become more connected to yourself, to others, and your life in the process. Therapy can be powerful, transformative, and liberating. In our work together, I will honor all of who you are, work to empower you, and never pathologize or stigmatize you.
