Elders (65+) Therapists in Point Breeze North, Pittsburgh, PA

People seek therapy when they are in pain. This pain may show up as anxiety, depression, loneliness, compulsive behaviors, addiction or a combination of these. My job as your therapist is to meet you where you are and to understand your experience, your pain, and to help you move forward. The goal is to create a collaboration in which you have the support and safety to begin to challenge thoughts, beliefs, and behaviors that may be holding you back and causing suffering. I will guide you in this work with warmth, humor, respect, and acceptance.

Life can be overwhelming, but it can also be very rewarding depending on some of the choices you make. Negative thoughts lead you down the road to despair. Having a positive outlook gives you Vision and Hope. ARE YOU READY TO LIVE PAIN FREE ????? LJCS wants to take this journey with you.

I specialize in Behavioral Medicine interventions that promote physical and psychological health by addressing the mind-body connection. Depression and anxiety do not simply exist in our heads, they reside in our bodies as well. I teach people how to heal themselves using techniques derived from cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness approaches, and positive psychology. Many of my clients have chronic health problems that include heart disease, cancer, neurological disorders, and autoimmune disease. Healing is possible, and we all have the inherent capacity to help ourselves feel better.

Hello! My name is Ashley and I am the proud owner & creator of North Cook Counseling, where I offer couples, family, individual, and group therapy. Regardless of the type of session being held, I am committed to treating the 'whole person.'

In the therapeutic setting, I use an eclectic approach by blending a person-centered spirit with cognitive-behavioral and solution-focused techniques.

It is my belief everyone needs a place to process their specific difficulties.

Let's find solutions for better stress management and good mental health.

I AM currently accepting new clients. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Pennsylvania. I work from a psychotherapeutic perspective grounded in humanistic and modern psychoanalytic practice. I work with individuals to explore their current suffering, symptoms, problems, and relationships and how these themes are related to earlier patterns of experience. My focus is on gaining a deep understanding of the individuals I work with that pays great respect to the person’s unique personality style, cultural differences, differences in sexual orientation and gender experience, and unique relationship patterns.

When we are on our way towards healing, we may face many roadblocks: past trauma, invalidating environments, our views of ourselves, among many others. While we are hard-wired to heal, it can be hard to do so when there are many factors getting in the way of our journey towards peace. Maybe standard talk therapy or CBT has not been helpful for you in the past, and you feel stuck. My passion is working with survivors of trauma or chronically invalidating environments who hope to build a life worth living.

Finding a Therapist can be Hard! Let's make it easier. Are you ready to reclaim your confidence and embrace a new way of viewing life? Are you feeling the impact of past trauma and the desire to unpack the baggage and move forward in freedom in your relationships? Let's collaborate together and find healthy ways to live and embrace life and freedom. Although taking the first step to seek help is sometimes hard, the lasting impact of that decision is worth that risk. Taking the time to focus on yourself, your relationships, and your future is never a wasted investment. I'm here to support you. www.curtiswilsoncounseling.com
