In Person Therapists in Pittsburgh, PA

Celia (Cj) Smith
Associate Professional Counselor, MS, NCC, LAPC
Pittsburgh, PA 15217
I offer telehealth most days and in-person sessions by request.
My ideal client is someone navigating a period of transition, grief, or uncertainty—whether that’s due to a reproductive decision, a loss, a relationship shift, or a change in how they see themselves. Many of my clients are LGBTQIA+, neurodivergent, or holding stories shaped by trauma. They often feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure how to move forward. What they want most is to feel seen, grounded, and more in control of their own lives. They’re looking for support that’s affirming, compassionate, and helps them understand themselves more deeply.

Christina M. Riga, PhD
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, LPC, ACS, NCC
Pittsburgh, PA 15206
Disappointment, stress, and trauma can make us forget who we really are: inherently good beings, capable of giving and receiving love in a balanced, healthy way. I can help you to remember, by providing a safe, warm, and welcoming space where you can share your experiences. We'll explore your story together and, along the way, take a look at your strengths, your potential, and what stands between you and strong, healthy connections with yourself and others. I have a deep understanding of how essential - and fragile - trust can be, and I strive to create an environment where healing can unfold at your pace.

My clinical practice is informed by principles of humanistic psychology with the following focuses: psychodynamics, cultural relational process, and trauma-focused framework. I believe in the power of therapeutic discourses that facilitate clients to discover unspoken thoughts and emotions related to their issues. I help clients to make meaningful connections and integrate thoughts, feelings, and actions given a situated culture and context. Additionally, I help clients explore meanings and patterns from a variety of roles they may identify with while developing creative mechanisms to respond to contextual and systematic stressors.
