Over the past 30 years I’ve developed a psychotherapeutic approach that integrates psychoanalytic principles with insights of Eastern mindfulness traditions. Having trained, taught, and worked in various college counseling centers in Pittsburgh for many years, I’ve focused my private practice on the mental health concerns of young adults, including struggles with depression, anxiety, gender identity, sexuality, family, relationships, and acculturation.

All are welcome in this private practice. I have expertise in working with college students, undergraduate and graduate students. I am willing to work on short-term problems or longer term issues. I see therapy as a collaborative process with an emphasis on emotional safety, and creative self-understanding. I can provide therapy via virtual or in-person sessions.
College and early adulthood can feel like a lot. You’re building your future, navigating relationships, managing expectations — and trying to keep it all together. Stress, anxiety, depression, burnout, breakups, and big life transitions are common, but that doesn’t mean you have to handle them alone. Therapy with me is real, supportive, and judgment-free. I focus on creating a space where you can be yourself, talk honestly about what’s weighing on you, and learn practical tools to feel more grounded and confident. I previously worked with college students and young adults at the Western Psychiatric Institute and Clinic in an Intensive Outpatient Program, supporting clients through anxiety, depression, and major life stressors. If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just not like yourself, let’s talk. Reaching out can be the first step toward feeling better.

I was both the traditional and non-traditional student in my college career that struggled with balancing it all; work, social life, trying to be healthy, get good grades and discovery myself. I wish I knew then what I know now and that is, you may not need to balance but distribute, prioritize, and compartmentalize! We are not just a "talk therapy" practice, we believe in providing tools and skills to get through the life YOU want effectively. Let us help you discover your journey that aligns with your wants, desires, needs, and values.
I am Darrell Phillips, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master's degree from the University of Pittsburgh where I also obtained my certification in mental health. As a therapist, I enjoy my work tremendously and take it seriously. I have a sincere level of commitment, caring and compassion in making a difference in others lives. I believe that all individuals have the capacity to thrive, and my commitment as your therapist is to help you to remove the barriers that are keeping you from living life more fully. Providing psychotherapy is both a humbling and enriching experience. As someone who understands the transformative power of therapy, I recognize the courage it requires to engage in psychotherapy and I am honored to be a part of your process. I embrace diversity, in all of its various forms, and welcome the opportunity to work with all people. Throughout my professional career I have been fortunate to work in business, mental health clinics, non-profit organizations, and educational institutions. Personally, I am a native of the Texas...but I love the Steel City and all of the wonderfully exciting things it has to offer! I’m passionate about learning and spending quality time with family and friends, which provides balance and wellness in my life. If you, or someone in your life is going through a difficult time with depression, anxiety, or another mental health issue, please contact me to schedule an appointment.
Sometimes life is difficult to navigate and it is hard to understand why. Having an objective person who can offer compassionate insight can help to work through areas of your life that keep you from enjoying and living the life you wish for.

Hi! I’m Annie, and I’m a licensed social worker. I often work with individuals who have experienced trauma. I use a relational & feminist framework to help clients understand the role of relationships, culture, & society throughout their lives, and how those things affect working towards healing and joy. My past experience includes crisis management, survivor advocacy, trauma psychoeducation, supportive counseling with folks who experienced sexual violence during incarceration, mindfulness group work, and community outreach. If you experienced sexual violence in the state of PA, ask me about ways to help cover your costs. I’m a certified sexual assault counselor, and I’m partially trained in EMDR, working towards certification. I have worked extensively with survivors of sexual abuse and complex trauma. I am proficient in working with the LGBTQIA+ community, the neurodiverse community, those who have experienced incarceration, and I work from an anti-diet culture perspective. I’m a person in the world who happens to be a therapist. To me, the most important part of therapy is the genuine human connection we form. I bring humor and authenticity to my practice. Outside of work, I can almost always be found with my nose in a book or finding myself a sweet treat. Let’s get to know each other and see if we are the right match!

I have worked as licensed professional counselor for over forty years. I have helped a wide variety of people face their problems and find solutions that meet an individual’s special circumstances. My approach to therapy is to provide a safe, non-judgmental and respectful environment. This approach involves a mutual exploration of important personal life issues. Therapy is a journey of self-discovery that leads to a better life. I have been trained in Gestalt Therapy. I work with trauma, grief and loss, eating disorders, and loss of family/friends to suicide. Please note I am only providing telehealth. https://ginagothmedlpc.com/
