Existential/Humanistic therapists in Bethel Park, Pennsylvania PA
Valiant Minds Counseling, LLC
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, ADHD-CCSP, CCATP
I believe that every person, no matter their circumstances or struggles, has a valiant mind. Therefore, I believe that each of my clients are the experts of their own life and that my job is to meet each client wherever they currently are on their journey and to walk alongside them in order to help facilitate growth and change. In 2004, I graduated from Chatham University with a Masters in Counseling Psychology and have since gained extensive experience in the treatment of adult and childhood psychological and neurobehavioral disorders. My sessions predominantly use cognitive behavioral therapy techniques, where I help my clients to understand how their thoughts affect their feelings and behaviors. I also use other psychotherapy techniques that provide comprehensive perspectives to my clients and enhance mind, body such as positive psychology, existentialist philosophy, and mindfulness meditation. My goal is to help my clients broaden their awareness, challenge problematic patterns, learn healthy coping skills, live mindfully and confidently, and seek their unique version of joy. Above all, I am committed to creating therapeutic relationships that are built on trust, respect, transparency, empathy, honesty, and equality, and I always counsel from a nonjudgmental place of understanding and compassion.

Richard Scott, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Life can be challenging. We don’t always find ourselves where we want to be or as happy as we would like. When that happens, therapy is an incredible tool to reflect on where you are and where you want to be. It is an honor and privilege to help my clients deal with their current circumstances and build healthier, happier lives. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if I can help you.

Dr. Adam Shafer
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
I do my best to listen in the service of understanding and provide thoughtful responsiveness, which I have found helps my clients connect to their inner life and with others. Using gentle honesty and compassion, I value autonomy and collaboration to help people feel less alone while finding a sense of purpose within their lives and in the world.

Pre-Licensed Professional, MA
Asking for help is one of the strongest things you can do, but it can also be one of the hardest because of past experience of not being heard, believed, or supported. I believe therapy is political and I don’t shy away from the impact that our government’s history, its policies, and practices have on our mental health. Together, we'll explore the intersections of your experiences and identities as we work to reach your goals.
