Joanne A. Petursson
Psychologist, PsyD
Ready to make a change in your life, but not sure where or how to start? Let’s take that first step together. I’m a licensed clinical psychologist with over a decade of experience working with adults who are ready to make meaningful change—but need support getting started. Whether you’re struggling with substance use, chronic pain, anxiety, depression, or just feeling stuck, you don’t have to face it alone. I use proven approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and mindfulness-based strategies. I offer ADHD evaluations for adults, with tailored treatment recommendations based on the client's unique needs. I enjoy working with Veterans and college students, I have an extensive background working with substance use issues, and I am certified in CBT for chronic pain.
I focus on creating a supportive, non-judgmental space for adults dealing with a variety of mental health issues. My goal is to help clients explore what’s holding them back and build practical strategies to move forward. Additionally, I endeavor to help my clients feel more grounded, clear, and empowered.
I accept Highmark, Optum, Aetna, and UPMC commercial insurance and I am happy to help with reimbursement for out-of-network clients. Clients are encouraged to contact their insurance company to verify that I am in-network if they would like to use insurance benefits, especially if located outside of Pennsylvania.

Psychologist, PhD
I started CCW International because I knew there was a gap. Women were struggling in silence. Veterans were coming home carrying weight that no one around them could quite understand. And the mental health world was not always showing up for them the way they deserved.
I have been in both worlds. As a U.S. Army veteran and a licensed psychologist, I know what it feels like to be strong for everyone else while quietly wondering who is going to be strong for you. That lived experience shaped everything about how we show up for our clients.
At CCW International, we do not just treat symptoms. We see the whole person. We ask about your story. We honor your service, your sacrifices, and your resilience. And we walk with you as you find your way back to yourself.
Our team is made up of clinicians who genuinely care, who bring both clinical expertise and human warmth to every session. We specialize in trauma recovery, resilience-building, and evidence-based care designed specifically for women, veterans, and military families.
If you have been waiting for a sign that it is okay to ask for help, this is it. We are here. And we are ready when you are.

Alyssa Smyth
Psychologist, PhD
You may be someone who is accustomed to managing a great deal on your own—but over time, stress, anxiety, low mood, or difficulty focusing can begin to interfere with daily life. I specialize in working with adults who carry significant responsibility and want a clearer understanding of what is affecting their mood, attention, and overall functioning. My background in military psychology informs a practical, evidence-based approach focused on restoring clarity, stability, and sustainable performance across work and personal life. If you are looking for thoughtful, structured support to move forward more effectively, I invite you to reach out to learn more or schedule an appointment.
