I have over a decade of experience working with people as they navigate life transitions. I understand struggling and feeling overwhelmed, and I believe that adding support and guidance can help alleviate life's stressors.

I've worked multiple years as a therapist in a community mental health center, a partial hospitalization program, and a nursing home. I try to understand where you are starting and where you are trying to go. I believe that there is value in humor, storytelling, and understanding different perspectives.

I bring 20+ years of experience and a genuine belief that every person has the capacity for change. I'm direct but compassionate — I'll be honest with you, and I'll always be in your corner. I don't believe in labeling people or fitting you into a box. You are a whole, complex human being, and that's how I'll treat you. I also have experience working with dually diagnosed individuals and those navigating substance use alongside other mental health challenges, so no matter what you're carrying, I've likely sat with someone in a similar place.

Terry Pryor

Therapist

Virtual • Pennsylvania


I built my practice around a conviction I've held since I started in this field: you are capable of more than the patterns that have been holding you back. My job is to help you see that clearly and give you the tools to act on it.

As a Black male therapist with a supervisor-level license (LPCC-S) and a certification in Trauma-Focused CBT, I bring both clinical depth and lived perspective to my work — particularly for men, for clients navigating trauma and its ripple effects, and for couples trying to understand each other across that pain.

I'm licensed in Ohio and Pennsylvania, trained at Youngstown State University, and serve clients via telehealth across both states with flexible morning, evening, and weekend availability.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Media

Searching for a therapist in Media, PA starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want support with. People look for therapy in Media, PA for many reasons, including anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, work stress, and life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy styles, and populations served. A therapist’s bio can help you understand whether they offer approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care, and what a first session may look like.

Media is a smaller local market, so nearby in-person options may vary by office location, schedule, and availability. Virtual therapy can expand your options across Pennsylvania while still letting you choose a therapist licensed to provide care in the state. When narrowing your search, consider whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare communication style, experience, and approach in one place.

Therapy in Media can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your out-of-pocket estimate before you book. Headway helps you find therapists who match your preferences and are accepting new patients, so you can review bios, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready. You can enter your insurance details on Headway to confirm coverage and review your estimated cost before booking.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
