Transgender Therapists in Penn Hills, PA

“Yoga means addition—addition of energy, strength, and beauty to body, mind, and soul.”—Amit Ray, Indian author and spiritualist In order to get to the root of what’s causing your discomfort we have to go towards and not away. This is painful but will cause change. I’m going to ask you to share your story with me. But you don’t have to do it alone. I see myself as both a support and a fierce advocate for clients to assist with their growth and navigation through the barriers. Through the addition of support and guidance I can help increase your energy strength and beauty of your self as a whole.

If you abandon the present moment, you cannot live the moments of your daily life deeply -Thich Nhat Hahn. It can be important to understand ourselves to be able to navigate this world. We often struggle with our own experiences and internal worlds. I can offer you space and understanding to work through those difficult questions and experiences you are having with a non-judgmental voice. I understand that our lives don't fit that traditional model and they don't have to which includes helping people through sex therapy. I have experience helping people work through their issues to find their authentic self and voice.

I’m interested in working with clients who are in search of deep emotional, mental, and spiritual healing. You can expect our sessions together to consider your past, and to process the impact of those experiences on your present day life. Almost everyone is impacted by distressing or traumatic events that inevitably occur throughout a lifetime, so those experiences will be explored and processed, as well. Our work together will be a blended effort of focusing on what is important to you, and my curiosity and guidance throughout your process.

Are you feeling overwhelmed or depressed recently? Do you need someone who actually listens to your problems? I am a therapist who specializes in working with young adults who are feeling anxious, depressed, overwhelmed, or just want someone to process their thoughts with. I believe therapy is for everyone! I pride myself on being an empathetic and responsive listener in session. If you chose me as your therapist you can expect the vibes to be casual and for you to be the main focus. I help clients feel heard, respected, and valued. I work collaboratively with clients to help them achieve their goals.

Hi! I work well with other professionals and pre-professionals (including other therapists) and anyone who is part of a marginalized population (ie: BIPOC, LGBT+). I specialize in empowerment which often means dealing with past trauma. Most of us have experienced trauma. If something has impacted your life negatively, let’s work together and start healing it.

I facilitate people finding physical, emotional and spiritual wellbeing and connection by building a safe and compassionate therapeutic relationship in which healing grief, trauma and challenges can be resolved. I support individuals becoming their fullest self in life and relationships through therapy, body/mind connection and stress management. I also enjoy providing Clinical Supervision to therapeutic professionals.

As a transpersonal, body and gestalt psychotherapist, EMDR and Comprehensive Energy Psychology practitioner, meditation teacher and hypnotherapist, I offer an embodied and integrated approach to therapy, coaching, consultation, and teaching. Our problems and difficulties are opportunities for growth and wisdom, our innate intelligence always knows exactly what we need to transform or heal. Often, we need to undergo a process of compassionately encountering what it is that we find unacceptable, terrifying, or seemingly impossible for us to bear or let go. Paradoxically, these are the things that can lead us into deeper relationship with our true self.

Connection to ourselves and others makes us feel whole. Ask yourself now, "Where are my people", "where do I feel as though I am authentically me"? Because mental un-health (our depressions, our anxieties) comes when we are disconnected from those spaces and people. Many factors can disconnect us: death, loss, transition, trauma, heartbreak, stress, abuse, illness, etc. I work with clients across diverse contexts to find reconnection and wholeness despite these disconnectors.

Accenting new clients Fall 2024. Afterschool and Weekend Appointments Available, UPMC, Highmark, Optum, Aetna insurance. These are tough times for children and the parents who love them. One in six American children are struggling with mental health issues. You may feel worried about your child and unsure of what to do to help. Unfortunately, children don’t have the ability to tell us what is wrong. They tell us with their behavior. I specialize exclusively in the treatment of children, and have 40 years of experience learning to understand them and how best to help.

While every counseling experience is unique, the team at Pittsburgh Pastoral Institute (PPI) seeks to provide an empathetic relationship in which individuals and families can safely and freely discuss their challenges and concerns in a holistic context carefully considering the mind, body, and soul in therapy. This is also a "person-centered" process in which the client determines the areas of exploration and discovery.

I think that therapy doesn’t have to be complicated. As a client you can expect to highlight your strengths, speak to your individual experience in a non-judgmental environment, receive unconditional support from someone you trust, and learn new ways to lessen your pain. Therapy is a wonderfully transformative venture, where two people collaborate on how to navigate the human experience. My approach is strengths-based, person-first, and multifaceted to meet your specific needs.

The world can be a beautiful and wondrous place that offers adventure and exciting challenges, but is also often difficult and filled with losses, struggles, and traumas. I believe that each of us has the capacity to heal, grow, and thrive. You may be feeling turned around and stuck, perhaps as a result of chronic stress, difficult relationships, loss, oppression, and traumatic events. OR you may be doing well and looking to deepen your connections to self and others. Wherever you are in your journey, I am dedicated to providing you with a safe space, keen clinical judgment, and compassionate honesty to help you achieve your goals.

My name is Brittany (she/her), and I help folx develop their sense of inner strength and trust, and overcome trauma related symptoms. Yes, people actually heal from trauma.
