Peter D. Ruffini
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdS, MA, LPC, LPCMH, ACS, EMDRPT-II
As an award-winning psychotherapist, I specialize in high-impact individual therapy for capable men. With over 15 years of experience and advanced trauma training, I’m known for my work in pornography addiction, sex addiction, and men’s mental health. My practice is frequently sought out by other therapists who refer men facing issues requiring specialized treatment—such as sex and porn addiction, trauma, anger, infidelity, and anxiety. I have also been featured in media speaking about these topics.
As a clinical supervisor, I train other therapists in gold-standard, evidence-based treatments. I provide expert, structured, results-oriented therapy for men who want real change—not generic talk therapy or surface-level coping. Clients reach out when they want depth, direction, and results so if you’re here, you’ve already taken the first step toward real change. See why men across PA, NJ, and DE choose Proven Path Counseling.

HUGH R STEWART III
Hypnotherapist, Ph.D., ACHt.
I primarily help 30-65yos in the sex positive and alternative lifestyle communities who are open minded, eager for change, personal growth, and are willing & empowered to take different action in their lives. They may feel or experience being stuck, sexless, depressed, anxious, guilt, shame, scared, unwanted, invisible, misunderstood, and/or confused. Their challenge is to let go of, surrender, and transform their self sabotaging patterns and behaviors that are negatively impacting their relationships, self esteem, and happiness in their lives. In order transform one’s experience it is crucial to learn healthy responsible communication skills, taking risk, emotional release work, letting go of expectations and beliefs that no longer serve you, and being present and mindful. As a result of me being a trusted compassionate yet assertive psychotherapist/coach, I will help guide them around the obstacles on their paths to the life and self they so desire and yearn for! They will learn the delicate balance between creating their goals and action plan & then letting go of being attached to the outcome while trusting their higher power to send them this or something better!

Congruent Relationships Counseling & Wellness
Counselor/Therapist
At Congruent Relationships, we believe that the most exhausting part of life shouldn't be the effort it takes to be "you."
We often move through the world wearing masks—performing for our partners, our families, or our jobs—while our internal reality feels disconnected and unseen. Our practice was founded on a simple but profound principle: congruence. It is the state where your thoughts, feelings, and actions finally align. When that harmony exists, the relationship you have with yourself transforms, and in turn, your relationships with everyone else begin to thrive.
We aren't a "one size fits all" practice. We are a specialized collective of clinicians who believe that therapy is a collaborative, systemic journey.
Here is why clients choose us:
Relationship Experts at Heart: Led by Dr. Nick Summa, our team specializes in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). We don’t just look at individual symptoms; we look at the patterns of connection that shape your life.
A Sanctuary for the LGBTQ+ Community: We are deeply committed to providing identity-affirming care. Whether you are navigating a transition, exploring poly/ENM dynamics, or seeking a space where your identity is celebrated rather than explained, you belong here.
Authenticity: We’ve traded the "blank slate" therapist persona for genuine human connection. Our clinicians show up as their authentic selves so that you feel safe enough to do the same.
Accessible Expertise: With physical offices in Pittsburgh and a robust online therapy platform, we bridge the gap between high-level clinical expertise and the convenience your modern life requires.
We know that finding a therapist can feel like a daunting task. That’s why we offer a free 15-minute consultation. It’s a low-pressure way to see if our energy matches yours and to ensure you feel a sense of "congruence" from the very first hello.
You deserve to live a life that feels honest. Let’s build it together.

Haley Mills
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
In therapy, I have found that if trust and care are established, healing can come naturally, and with ease. Much of my professional work has focused on loss and life transitions. I hold a systems-based framework, attuning to the complexities of the individual and their placement in the world. Interpersonally, this includes using an anti-oppressive lens when exploring relationships and ourselves, giving voice to parts of self that have been overlooked or overwhelmed. My approach is informed by psychodynamic, mindfulness, somatic, and attachment-based theories. I aim to create a collaborative, warm, and engaged space, where I can learn about your life, and we can talk through it together.
