Therapists in Pittsburgh, PA

That feeling when you cannot catch your breath and you are frozen … unable to move, to control the thoughts in your mind, or the tears streaming from your eyes.

We offer in person and teletherapy video sessions. Life isn’t always easy. Even the strongest people amongst us need a little bit of help to work through some of life’s more challenging problems. Everyone has battles to fight and hurdles to overcome at some point. Whether you struggle with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, or any other issue, you should know that there is hope for a better tomorrow. You might be initially hesitant to seek out help and support for personal matters, but when you do, you will feel confident that you are taking a courageous first step towards getting to a better place and being a better you.

Let's talk about the change you've been thinking about. I want to help you build the capacity to support long-term change by developing an understanding as to why the world can feel so overwhelming, and how this negatively impacts the way you feel about yourself, the way you interact with others in relationships, and generally the way you move about spaces everyday. The impact may be a result of trauma or PTSD, feelings of depression, anxiety, relationship struggles, major life adjustments, substance use, or maybe it is because you are struggling with identity. These are all areas that I can help you with.
