Therapists for college students near Pittsburgh, PA

Please visit my profile to learn more about my services.

Let’s be so serious, college is a huge transition that can bring upon complex feelings. You finally get this independence you always wanted but something just feels off. You may be second guessing if this major is what you actually want to do. Maybe you are feeling isolated and alone but surrounded by thousands of people. You may find yourself comparing yourself to the people around you and losing self confidence. Possibly having a hard time managing all of your time between being social and homework and studying. You can all of a sudden become a stranger to yourself, that can be scary. College can bring about so many feelings and thoughts that you do not have to navigate through alone. I enjoy working with college age young adults who are looking to make sense of this world around them. My job as your therapist is to not tell you how to feel, it's to help you reach a functioning point in your life that makes sense to YOU. I strive to help you find balance and work through this unsure time in your life! Therapy is collaborative, I bring my expertise of counseling into session and you bring your expertise in your life into session. You also may need a place to put your thoughts and feelings somewhere. If you are looking to book with me, reach out and we can get you scheduled for a 15 minute free consult. This will help me understand your goals for therapy as well as to feel out each other's vibe and see if we mesh!

Whatever brought you to finding me, whether it is seeking therapy for the first time or not finding a connection with multiple therapists, congrats on not throwing in the towel. Finding treatment is an arduous task, and I commend you for it. I focus on finding solutions and am confident we can be a good fit, so let's start the conversation.

College is this interesting time of transition where you are given an opportunity to explore independence away from your parents, hometown, and all that feels comfortable. But for many, this independence and freedom can be lonely, confusing and downright uncomfortable. You may feel like you are not cut out to succeed in such a high pressure environment. Decisions can seem overwhelming. Am I in the right major? What internship should I choose? Should I study abroad? Do I need to take a semester off? How do I manage my money? The pressure to perform academically can be intense and feel overwhelming. Picking a major, choosing classes, second guessing your decisions, and simply managing time and assignments can feel insurmountable. If you previously struggled with time management or organization, you may find your safety net is now far away and now your grades are suffering. I have worked with many students just like you. I work to treat a range on issues that get in the way of optimal academic performance - from depression to anxiety to ADHD. I further specialize in working with students who are also parents. Parenting young children while working towards your degree is no small feat. Pregnancy and/or postpartum during graduate school is challenging but together we can get through it.

You're exhausted. Not just tired, exhausted. The kind that sleep doesn't touch. You've been holding it together, pushing through, showing up for everyone else. And somewhere along the way, you stopped feeling like yourself. Maybe you've tried therapy before. Read the books, downloaded the apps, done the work. And yet here you are, same patterns, same weight, same wall. That doesn't mean you're broken. It means you haven't found the right fit yet. This is a space where you don't have to perform progress or have the perfect words ready. Just come as you are. About my approach: I use EMDR, Narrative, Emotion-Focused, and attachment-based approaches all grounded in cultural humility. But honestly? My clients usually come in expecting someone serious and clinical. Then they realize I laugh easily, I swear sometimes, and yes, I will absolutely do a mini chair-dance when you hit a milestone. No poker face here. About me: I'm a first-generation Latinx, LGBTQIA+ woman who grew up in a multigenerational household where family, community, and education weren't just values, they were survival. That lived experience shows up in how I work: with warmth, cultural humility, and full presence.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, hopeless and struggling to connect with others? Is your inner critic getting the best of you? Is the way you learned to cope with life not working anymore? Considering therapy, but unsure of what to expect? Have you had trouble finding the right fit with past therapists? I tailor my therapeutic approach to your individual needs. I have a relaxed, accepting, and compassionate style. I enjoy humor and am comfortable with anger. I often work with those encouraged to attend by a parent, spouse, or partner, and those who are doubtful therapy can help. Give me a call, leave me a voicemail, or email for a free phone consultation and to schedule an appointment. I look forward to hearing from you, and will do my best to provide additional referral information if I am not the right fit for your needs. I am currently offering simple, virtual secure video telehealth sessions and secure phone sessions.

Working as a counselor has been one of the most gratifying experiences! I enjoy working with student athletes due their unique stressors due their performance in school and sports. They are highly motivated and always striving to improve. Giving students room to express themselves in a non- judgmental environment can help bring out their very best.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist with Rittenhouse Psychiatric Associates. I use evidence-based approaches to help people experiencing body image and self-esteem concerns, anxiety, depression, and disordered eating among other behavioral and psychological challenges. I seek to understand each person’s unique experience. We all have a history that has shaped who we are, the messages we tell ourselves, and the behaviors we use to cope with the unavoidable pain that life brings us. I collaborate with each person to understand their experience, increase their insight, and facilitate progress toward their goals. I am thorough and kind-hearted, and I also appreciate moments of levity and laughter to balance the challenging aspects of therapy. I use Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) along with other evidence-based approaches to guide our work. This often involves discussing inner self-critical messages and taking a closer look at challenging moments and reoccurring patterns. We will gain an understanding of the patterns that are moving you closer to and further from what you want out of life and develop strategies to help you move closer to the life you want to live. We will be on this journey together, working as a team, and adjusting the work to the right direction and pace for you.

Making a decision to pursue therapy is often the beginning of a life changing journey. I can partner with you to set goals and determine a path to growth, healing, and well-being.

Hello! My name is Pamelia Sublett and I'm a licensed clinical social worker in Indiana, Illinois, Minnesota, Michigan, Nevada and Washington State. I currently am offering on telehealth.

When you make the decision to attend therapy, you are making the decision to prioritize your wellbeing in a fundamentally unique way. Therapy is something that can be challenging, but also transformative– Especially for those who have not been listened to, believed, or had the freedom to pause and practice introspection due to the demands of life. Knowing the challenges of finding a therapist who can understand your life experiences, I prioritize working with communities with whom I share personal experience. This includes, but is not limited to: LGBTQIA+, polyamorous/ENM, BDSM/kink, sex worker, SA/DV survivors, neurodivergent, chronically ill & disabled communities. My work is grounded in Relational-Cultural Therapy, which emphasizes the importance of the relationship between therapist and client as an essential part of the therapeutic process. I aim to minimize power dynamics in the room between therapist and client, and firmly believe you are the expert of your life. Rather than an authority in the room, I see my role as a collaborator in helping you achieve your therapy goals. For those who wish to know my social location: I am a Black, queer, disabled, neurodivergent, polyamorous, non-binary therapist in my 30s. I come from a middle-class background in a mixed race household, am a US citizen, and was raised Catholic but am not religious. I approach therapy as a team effort grounded in trauma-informed, anti-racist, fat liberatory, sex & kink positive, and feminist ideals. My therapy practice is eclectic, borrowing from multiple modalities in order to find the best approach for each individual client, couple, or polycule. Common approaches I incorporate include: EFT (emotion focused therapy), IFS (internal family systems), Sex Therapy, and Attachment Theory. I work with clients on a variety of topics, but special interests include: Unpacking attachment wounds using IFS; Transition stages in Poly/ENM; Freedom from shame regarding sex & kink; Impacts of disability; Relationships to health, disordered eating, and/or fatness from a fat liberatory and body neutrality lens.
