Self Esteem Therapists in 15642

No longer accepting NEW clients. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who has provided quality counseling services for children, adolescents, adults and couples for 18 years. I have experience treating a variety of mental health and life issues. I believe in providing counseling services that meet clients wherever they may be on life's journey in a caring, supportive, non-judgmental manner. I focus on providing a holistic approach that addresses not only the mental, but the physical and spiritual aspects of client issues throughout the therapeutic process.

Welcome to our practice! We are a group practice of Marriage and Family Therapists and Professional Counselors available help individuals, couples, and families in the Pittsburgh area and beyond! Our main goal is to help you increase self-awareness and facilitate change in your day-to-day relationships, allowing for a more congruent way of life. We hope to create a non-judgmental, warm, and safe environment during the therapeutic process for you to explore your needs on how to grow and change.

I work from a Narrative Therapy approach to counseling which is a helpful tool to assist clients to look at their lives critically and holistically while processing the changes they want in their lives and relationships. I work collaboratively to unearth themes of problems AND strengths, the strategies my clients have already attempted to work through their problems, strengthen self-identity and awareness, and explore desired life changes by breaking them into manageable tasks. I also work systemically with couples and families to build more supportive & connected relationships.

I work from a Cognitive Behavioral approach along with a Dialectical Behavioral approach in order to challenge and reframe thoughts along with developing healthy coping strategies to counteract emotional distress. I work from a collaborative approach with the individual, family, and or couple to outline strength based goals, increase awareness, and validate given information provided.

I have been providing treatment to children, adolescents and adults for over 20 years. I believe therapy should be designed to meet each persons specific needs and goals. Positive change works best in the context of a trusting, genuine, and nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship. I will help you achieve growth by utilizing treatment methods that are best suited to your specific issues and personality.

I love the counseling profession. I feel privileged to be invited to share with others in their life journey. You may be at a point in your life where you need someone to support you as you strive to understand yourself or your relationships. You may want to make changes but don't know what you need or where to start. Together we can explore your needs, frustrations, and problems and make a plan to address those issues in a way that works for you.

Immediate availability before 4PM Monday through Thursday! Waitlist for evening availability. Going through changes is often an uncomfortable experience. In order to grow, pushing through our comfort zone is inevitable. When the future is unknown, we may freeze, experiencing heightened stress, anxiety, or depression. Through your counselling journey, I believe building trust and a healthy therapeutic alliance are key in becoming the best version of yourself. I utilize a holistic approach to treatment, integrating Cognitive Behavioral techniques with Person-Centered Therapy and Motivational Interviewing.

Congratulations at taking the first step in reaching out to a counselor. I can understand how difficult it can be for some to make that decision. It can be hard to admit when someone feels like they need additional help in their lives to get things moving in a positive direction. It's important to recognize that this is not a flaw, and that teamwork is sometimes the best solution for an issue. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is very important and that you need to feel comfortable with someone to open up and trust. I would be honored to be a part of your journey to help you find your desired goals.

Managing life's stressors and challenges can be difficult to do alone. You may feel worried, overwhelmed and stressed. Maybe you need healing from a difficult life event. I want to help support you in embracing self-awareness while developing the value of boundary setting and healthy interpersonal relationships and reducing feelings of self criticism. I strongly believe in the importance of building a trusting therapeutic relationship with my clients and treating a person as a whole. My goal is to help you gain self-awareness while healing and challenging unhealthy thoughts and/or beliefs.

Hello and Welcome!! I am Dr. Daniel Marston, a Licensed Psychologist in the state of Pennsylvania. I have been in clinical practice for over 20 years and have helped many people overcome many different challenges. I specialize in cognitive-behavioral therapy and am board-certified in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy by the American Board of Professional Psychology (ABPP). My approach to counseling is a strong combination of caring and research. I strongly believe that counseling needs to be much more than just “friendly talk” and that the only way to do this is to base it solidly on clinical research.

I treat adult clients with a range of concerns, including life adjustments, mood disorders, trauma history, anxiety, personality disorders, stress, dual diagnosis (MH/D&A), dual diagnosis (MH/ID), as well as individuals who wish to maximize their full potential. The nature of the therapeutic relationship is the bedrock from which trust develops and is the key to improve upon all other relationships, including with one's self. I assist individuals to discover and build upon inner strengths, skills, and abilities to better adapt to the challenges that a fulfilling life presents.

I operate from a psychodynamic-interpersonal perspective and utilize relational-cultural and feminist frameworks to explore how our identities and experiences have been influenced by the environments and systems we exist in. My areas of interest include working with concerns related to identity development, late adolescence and emergent/early adulthood, interpersonal and relational concerns, women’s concerns, and family of origin trauma.

One of the greatest things about challenges in life is that we’re given the opportunity to discover we’re stronger than we ever imagined. Understanding that we can develop the skills necessary to conquer life’s challenges is critical to creating the life we want for ourselves. I have twenty years of experience in the mental health field having worked in a hospital setting at UPMC Western Psychiatric Hospital, residential treatment and outpatient levels of care.

I believe caring, encouragement, and humor need to be combined with knowledge and skills. I want to make you feel confident that all will be well. You may need someone to listen or you may need a counselor trained in diagnosing and treating mental health concerns. I try to provide others with what I would want from a counselor. I will give you honesty and commitment to help you be happier in your daily life. We will work together in a non judgmental environment. Caring and support are balanced with a goal oriented style to help you meet your goals.

Because I believe initiating therapy is a courageous and admirable movement toward improving a person's life and relationships, I strive to provide an atmosphere of respect, security, acceptance-- and above all... hope! I am committed to creating an experience in which clients feel empowered through coaching, modeling, and multi-media education that makes learning new concepts understandable and easily incorporated into everyday life.
