WELCOME
Many anxious people struggle to open up about their feelings and experiences, especially in a traditional therapy setting. That's why we incorporate a variety of activities into our sessions, creating a dynamic environment where clients can express themselves more freely. At Counseling in Motion, we believe that the best conversations often happen when you're in motion. Founded by David J. Barnes, NCC, our psychotherapy practice serves teens and adults in Berwyn and King of Prussia, as well as online throughout Pennsylvania.
Our Mission
Our mission is to inspire hope, confidence, and curiosity by creating a truly judgment free space where movement is encouraged, and by asking meaningful questions that help our clients focus on what they want in life instead of what they hate about themselves, and all the mistakes they've made.
Why Choose Counseling in Motion?
Our Approach
As a parent, you want the best for your child, and you want your child to be the best they can be. If you've tried other things to help them and are frustrated that nothing seems to be working, call us. Many young people face challenges such as anxiety, depression, and the struggle to find their identity in a world that often feels unwelcoming. At Counseling in Motion, we provide a space where people can explore these feelings while engaging in activities that promote movement and connection.
- Active Engagement: We utilize a variety of activities, whether it's boxing, walking, having a catch, or other forms of movement, to help clients feel more comfortable and open. When you're moving, it can be easier to talk about what's going on inside your head.
- Solution-Focused Therapy: Our approach is solution-focused, meaning we work together to identify your strengths and develop practical strategies to overcome challenges. We believe in building on what’s working in your life to create positive change.
Common Challenges We Address
- Anxiety: Many people experience anxiety that can interfere with daily life. We help you develop strategies to help you cope more effectively and feel less overwhelmed.
- Depression: Feelings of sadness and hopelessness can be isolating. Our therapy sessions provide a space to explore these feelings and whether we can reframe the way we think to focus on positive possibilities.
- Identity Exploration: Adolescence is a time of self-discovery, and many young men, and particularly black men, struggle to find their place in the world. We support you in exploring your identity and building self-confidence.
Experience a Different Approach to Therapy
If you've tried other therapies and left feeling worse, if you or your child doesn't like the idea of sitting down and staring at a stranger while they have to talk about their problems, if you're ready to rediscover your sense of autonomy and agency, reach out to At Counseling in Motion, serving Berwyn and King of Prussia in person and the rest of Pennsylvania online. Call (484) 681-2768 or email us through our website.

Our Reviews
A. P. (Golden Girl)
Working with David Barnes at Counseling in Motion has been one of the best decisions I’ve made during this season of life. His solution-focused approach has helped me shift my perspective and continue moving forward, even in the midst of hard patterns and uncertainty. David is honest, deeply attentive, and genuinely invested in your well-being. He doesn’t just listen, he tracks with you. He brings a wealth of wisdom, experience, and insight into every session, always offering just enough to challenge and encourage without overwhelming. If you’re feeling stuck in repeated cycles and are truly ready to move forward, I highly recommend working with David. Now, I’ll be real…part of me hesitated to write this, because the selfish side wants to keep his schedule open for myself! But the larger part of me, the healed, growing, generous part, knows that sharing is caring. And I want others to experience this kind of breakthrough too. Go ahead and book the session. It’s worth it. Happy Healing Good People!

Mr. Barnes has been nothing short of amazing with the two foster children in our home. They enjoy speaking with him, and running out their energy with him. Could be boxing one day or playing with a soccer ball the next. He has truly helped them through so much trauma that they have endured. Highly recommend him to help with any therapy needs.

I started therapy a little less than a month ago, and David is honestly the best. He listens intently, is able to sort through all the words, and pin point exactly what type of work you need to do in order to cultivate the type of life you want to live. He is kind, knowledgeable, and has a calming presence. I really look forward to sessions with David, and enjoy applying the advice he gives me to my life. Wonderful therapist, hands down!

David's warm, non-judgmental demeanor makes it easy to talk to him. He shows genuine concern for me while holding me accountable for my own happiness and helping me develop the tools to better understand myself. I am thrilled to have found him.

David helped me through one of the hardest years of my life. When we first started talking I was hurting too bad to get off the couch, but now I’m getting some happiness back in my life. David always brought wise thoughts to our discussions and made me feel comfortable being honest. I highly recommend him as a counselor.

David has a way of getting you to talk and be open without feeling vulnerable despite talking about difficult things. He is just very present and it is nice to feel hope after a session. I really recommend him because I do think that his way of counselling is helpful.
