Philadelphia Consultation Center

Philadelphia Consultation Center is a Philadelphia based psychotherapy and psychoanalytic counseling practice offering private, long term talk therapy with a consistent therapist over time.

The center helps adults and elders address anxiety, depression and trauma, phobias and eating disorders, sexuality and identity concerns, and severe mental health conditions like OCD, PTSD and bipolar disorder.

Rooted in a depth oriented model, the practice provides a safe, confidential and non intrusive space for self awareness and lasting personal growth.

Long Term Psychoanalytic Talk Therapy

The center's core focus is psychoanalysis and long term psychotherapy built around in depth discussion and self understanding.

Operating since 1973, its therapists receive additional training through the Philadelphia School of Psychoanalysis, reflecting a distinctive and traditional clinical approach.

Rather than short term, manualized treatment, sessions emphasize ongoing dialogue with the same therapist to explore root causes and patterns over time.

Clients are carefully matched to a therapist based on fit, with a referral network available when a different specialty is needed.

Affirming and Inclusive Care

The practice offers outpatient support for adults and young adults, elders and the LGBTQ+ community in an affirming, welcoming environment.

It also addresses co-occurring mental health concerns through its depth oriented model, though it does not provide medication management or have a psychiatrist on staff.

Next Steps

Philadelphia Consultation Center provides in person therapy at its Philadelphia office, near SEPTA bus lines and accessible by subway, plus teletherapy by phone or video across the area.

Some therapists accept Medicaid issued through Philadelphia County, and the practice connects clients to a referral network for self pay options including lower cost trainee and intern sessions.
