Feeling like life handed you a script you never auditioned for? Maybe your thoughts are running wild like toddlers on espresso, or your feelings have you crying over a microwave burrito. If you're tired of white-knuckling your way through stress, relationships, or just existing in general, welcome! You're in the right place. I’m Marchaé Peters, aka The Comical Counselor! A LAPC licensed therapist who mixes real talk, big feelings, and just the right amount of humor to help you get unstuck. I offer in person therapy in Greensburg, PA and secure telehealth therapy to anyone living in Pennsylvania working on being emotionally cool!
With 18+ years of experience, I use a person-centered mix of CBT, existential therapy, gestalt, mindfulness, and family systems to help you get unstuck. I offer traditional therapy plus TCC Resets, self-pay therapy intensives of 2+ consecutive hours for focused work on one concern, event, decision, pattern, or emotional roadblock.
Therapy with me is judgment-free, relatable, occasionally hilarious, and centered on you. You don’t need perfect words or a color-coded healing plan. Whether you want ongoing therapy or focused time through a Reset, we’ll build insight, emotional stamina, and coping skills you can actually use. Let’s laugh a little, heal a lot, and get you back to AWESOME!

If the fee made your wallet clutch its pearls, take a deep breath. Therapy should not require your bank account to enter witness protection. Reach out anyway. I offer self-pay and limited sliding scale options, and we can talk through what may actually work for your budget.

I use CBT, mindfulness, person-centered, family systems, existential, and strength-based therapy. Fancy words, simple goal: help you understand your patterns, build real coping skills, and stop letting your emotions run the meeting like they found the microphone, skipped the agenda, and started filibustering your peace.
