hey there

Welcome! At Pittsburgh Art Therapy and Counseling we serve folks locally in Pittsburgh and across the state of Pennsylvania offering art therapy and counseling. In our space, there's no clinician-patient hierarchy, no monotone responses, or robotic feeling interactions.  It's simple, just humans who are trained in the best ways to help you reach your goals, and doing so as their most authentic, human selves. 

Our focus is on building healthy, compassionate, judgement-free therapy spaces for folks 16 years old and up, where you can explore yourself safely in collaboration with your therapist. Therapy is a conjoint effort where you are in the driver's seat and your therapist is a copilot to your journey: able to provide suggestions of places to pause and rest; possible routes, steps, and turns that may get you closer to your intended destination.

We are an LGBTQIA+ affirming therapy office and strive to embody the essence that all are welcome here.

Show up as you are- we're happy to meet you there. 

Therapy that meets you where you are.

We're so glad you're here! Reaching out for help can be tough but you're working on the first few steps towards finding the right therapist for you which is incredible! Below are just a few things that are a focus and passion here at the studio, but certainly not limited to.

If you're unsure if we're the right fit for you just send us a message.
