Counseling is an opportunity for people to gain: awareness, acceptance, insight, and identify tools for relaxation and problem-solving. Counseling is a therapeutic relationship wherein your voice is heard.

I practice from an existential-phenomenological lens, which emphasizes that all individuals have the freedom to interpret their existence. My approach, a practice of 'care for the self,' focuses on the true essence of human existence. As a clinician, I am dedicated to empowering individuals to reclaim meaning and purpose in their lives, to live with intention, and to confront the unknown with courage. I actively encourage individuals to use their capacity to make choices, thereby maximizing their existence and imagining a more meaningful life.

Life can be full of surprises, not all of them happy. There may be times when, quite out of the blue, you feel anxious, depressed, or just plain stuck. Even in the midst of personal, financial and professional success, you might still find you are struggling emotionally, interiorly questioning, wondering whether all the energy and time you have put into your life is really paying off. Often, you may not know what exactly is troubling you and yet feel quite certain that something is not quite right inside. When it feels this way, therapy can help.

I am a Pittsburgher and I'm proud to practice psychology in my home community, and to support other therapists in my practice group by providing supervision and a supportive workplace. My goal is to see each client as a person first, and provide individualized healthcare. I see therapy as collaborative, and including both skill-building and self-exploration. In terms of self-exploration, I see the client as the expert in their own life, while a therapist is attuned to noticing themes or patterns that the client would have otherwise missed or avoided.

There are two major factors with making therapy beneficial - one is the client, and finding a therapist is a big step! The second is the therapeutic relationship, which is strengthened over time. I think therapy works best if someone is willing to allow me to join them in processing what's happening in their life, emotions, and stressors. By allowing me to sit with them, clients are working on strengthening that therapeutic relationship which makes therapy effective. I appreciate openness to different ideas and strategies, and clients can have short- or long-term needs.

Greetings and salutations, I am Celeste! Are you looking for a space to truly be heard? A safe environment with another human who will not only listen, but empower, and challenge you? Are you struggling with your sexuality? Experiencing anxiety because the world is crazy and adulting is HARD?

Psychotherapy can help you to better approach problems with depression, loss, anxiety, trauma, relationships and self-esteem issues with greater understanding and possibility for transformation. I practice in the psychodynamic model of Object Relations that emphasizes the development of empathy, a process of "knowing with" between client and therapist, to discover previously unknown or inaccessible sources of frustration and distress leading to greater self-capacity.

Throughout my 10 years working in mental health, I have learned how important it is to our healing to be connected in heart and body. I believe building a better understanding of this mind-body connection and the impact it can have on both our physical and mental health is critical in symptom management, emotional regulation, stress management, overall health and wellness, and navigating our everyday life in this world.
