Mandy Foxwell joins the In Him Christian Wellness team with a passion for the Lord and an excitement to see Him move in the lives of her clients.  Mandy received her Bachelor of Science degree in Sociology with a minor in Gerontology and spent many years working with the elderly population in the area of social work in long-term care.  Additionally, she homeschooled her son for four years and then spent several years working as an administrative assistant for a local nonprofit agency called, House of Hope.  It was during this time that Mandy felt God calling her to pursue her degree in counseling.  She returned to school and earned her Master of Arts in Counseling from Messiah College in 2019.  She is a National Certified Counselor and Pennsylvania certified School Counselor.  She has worked as a K-5 school counselor since graduating from Messiah and loves bringing the joy of the Lord into the schools where she works.  Mandy is currently working towards licensure as an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) and is receiving supervision accordingly.  Mandy sees clients in our Shrewsbury location.   

Mandy brings a genuine desire to walk with young people and other individuals through the issues of life.  She has personally walked through many experiences with grief/loss and feels specifically called to walk with those struggling in this area.  Mandy’s areas of focus include individual counseling in the areas of grief/loss, life adjustments, relationships, identity, self-esteem, and spiritual issues.  She also has an interest in working with individuals/families involved in the military.  She is excited to see how God expands these areas of focus as she begins work with clients.  Mandy’s approach to therapy is person-centered with a strong focus on basic attending skills and mindfulness techniques.  She also desires to utilize biblical references and prayer according to the comfort level of each client.  Mandy hopes to develop a collaborative relationship with her clients and desires that her client’s would know that they have purpose and a calling and are deeply loved by the Lord.
