I'm a therapist who specializes in trauma. I'm familiar with symptoms of anxiety and depression both in clinical practice and from my own lived experience. I am a queer, neurodivergent therapist who specializes in PTSD, LGBTQ+ issues, and empowering women. I want to give my clients the vocabulary to put their feelings to words and heal old wounds. I like to focus on problem-solving and teaching coping skills to address the daily discomfort you feel. I graduated with honors from a Master's Clinical Mental Health Counseling program and have 5 years of clinical experience.
Hello, it's nice to meet you! My name is Pamela and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of PA. I received my bachelor's degree in Psychology from St. Joseph's University and my master's degree in Clinical and Counseling Psychology from Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine. I have extensive experience working in a variety of mental health treatment settings that include residential, outpatient, and University counseling services. My goal as a therapist is to empower each and every client to see their true potential. I want to support clients in recognizing and building on their strengths and regaining a sense of hope and control in their lives, so that they can go on to live happier, healthier, and more productive lives. I realize that seeking help can be overwhelming and difficult; however the results can be life-changing, and I am here to guide and support you on your journey!
I cultivate strong therapeutic relationships to fuel my clients’ healing and growth. No matter where people are in life or the challenges they face, I have the expertise and passion to support my clients from early childhood to end of life. I also specialize in conducting assessments for children and adults who want to know more about themselves to help guide their mental health journey.
I accept every client for who he or she is. I do not pass judgment, and I am very confidential.

I have been working in the mental health field since 2013. I got my first masters degree in psychology in 2013 and then completed my second masters degree of clinical mental health counseling in 2022. I have worked in many different settings within the mental health field but have found that getting to work one on one with people in the outpatient setting is the most rewarding.
Therapy is more than just a career for me, being connected to people and helping people is one of the most important parts of life. A lot of my work has integrated peoples' concerns with their diagnoses (such as borderline personality disorder, depression, anxiety, OCD, and PTSD) while addressing their struggles with different relationships (family, friends, partners, coworkers)
I have my Bachelors degree from the University of Scranton in Psychology in 2010 and received my Masters degree in Rehabilitation Counseling in 2013 also from The University of Scranton. I have worked in many fields prior to getting into private practice and have experience with couples therapy, addiction, inpatient and outpatient mental health counseling, adolescents, grief and trauma. I hold a CRC (Certified Rehabilitation Counselor) and an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Pennsylvania.
I have been a clinical social worker for 6 years, and love this work. I specialize in grief, confidence issues, major life transitions, and trauma, and want to meet every individual with respect, warmth, and optimism. I have a master's degree in Sociology from Columbia University and a social work degree from the University of Pennsylvania. I love dogs, yoga, improv, and art!
I believe every individual has the capacity for growth, healing, and positive change. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to navigate life's challenges with confidence and resilience.
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I provide compassionate, evidence-based care to individuals across the lifespan, serving clients from age 5 through older adulthood (100+). I work collaboratively with each client to build on their strengths, foster personal growth, and support meaningful, lasting change.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Pittsburgh
Finding OCD therapists in Pittsburgh starts with looking for the right clinical training, not just a general specialty label. Obsessive-compulsive disorder can involve intrusive thoughts, compulsions, reassurance seeking, avoidance, and anxiety. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is a well-established therapy approach for OCD, and not all therapists are trained in it. As you compare therapists, look for bios that mention ERP, OCD therapy, anxiety and OCD experience, or structured support for obsessions and compulsions.
Pittsburgh has a strong mental health care community, with options across neighborhoods and nearby areas, but the best fit still depends on more than location. Some people prefer in-person sessions near home, work, school, or transit, while others use virtual appointments to access more therapists with OCD experience. It can help to compare appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, and how clearly their profile describes their approach. A therapist who lists OCD as an area of familiarity may differ from one who names ERP training or focused OCD treatment experience, so reading bios closely can help you narrow your search.
OCD therapy in Pittsburgh can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before booking. Headway helps you search for Pittsburgh therapists who match your needs, take your insurance, and have current availability. You can review profiles, compare specialties, and book directly when you’re ready.
