Therapist

I believe that everyone deserves to have a therapist. Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and you don’t have to take it alone. I work with teens (late adolescence) through adults who are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply looking for support and clarity, therapy can be a place to slow down, reflect, and begin creating meaningful change. In addition to individual therapy, I offer couples and family therapy to help improve communication, strengthen relationships, and work through difficult dynamics.

Find the right counselor for your family

Headway makes it easier to find family-focused support — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Pittsburgh

Finding family therapists in Pittsburgh starts with naming what your family wants support with. Family therapy may focus on parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, communication across generations, or relationship strain between partners and parents. Family therapists are trained to work with the relational system, not just one person. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience with family systems, parent-teen support, couples counseling for parents, or other concerns that match your situation.

In a mid-sized city like Pittsburgh, you may find family counselors in Pittsburgh, PA with offices near your neighborhood, along with therapists who offer virtual appointments across Pennsylvania. In-person sessions may fit families who prefer a shared office setting, while virtual care can make it easier for family members in different locations or with different schedules to attend. Session structure can also vary — some sessions may include the full family, while others may include parents, siblings, couples, or one family member. Reading therapist bios before booking can help you understand their approach, availability, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.

Family counseling in Pittsburgh, PA can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket costs and make ongoing care more affordable. Headway helps you search for therapists who focus on family issues, review estimated costs before booking, and see who is accepting new patients. You can compare bios, filter by insurance and appointment type, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.

If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.

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