Gottman Method
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.

Gottman Method
Elements Counseling and Wellness Spa
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, PhD, LPC, LCSW, LSW, LAPC,
We believe healing isn’t always quiet—it’s about being bold, being unapologetically you, and finally letting your body release the weight it’s been carrying. By blending compassionate psychotherapy with restorative somatic care like halotherapy and deep muscle compression, we help you process trauma in a way that truly sticks. Our sanctuary is a safe, fiercely inclusive haven built for marginalized voices and the queer community, where you’ll feel the relief of a warm blanket the moment you walk through the door. Whether you’re navigating trauma, neurodiversity, or sex therapy, you don't have to carry your story alone anymore. You’re home—come in, exhale, and let’s start your next chapter together.

Anna Raport
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT/Sex Therapist
Helping individuals and couples create the intimacy they crave and desire.
I am passionate about helping people uncover and explore their sexy side! I enjoy assisting individuals and couples in developing and recreating their most vulnerable connections in life. My passion lies within creating healthy and positive connections with sexuality and your body. Growing up in a sex negative culture can be difficult. I definitely get it and have struggled myself with negative views of sexuality in the past. I understand how hard it can be to let go of the negative standards and embrace passion, pleasure and sexuality. I can help transform and enhance your sexual life and then you will begin to lead a pleasure filled satisfying sex life.

Integrity Counseling Services
Counselor/Therapist
We offer counseling that combines the best of psychology with Catholic spirituality. In doing so we can treat the whole person, which can lead to the best outcomes. We believe that while psychology is a great tool that can help us understand people and relationships, God is the ultimate healer. We want to help people heal from their wounds, resolve problem issues, and have the healthy lives and relationships that God wants them to have

Kimberly Dudley
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I believe therapy should be a collaborative experience where you feel seen, heard, and valued. My goal is to create a space where you can show up authentically, explore life’s challenges honestly, and develop the tools needed to create meaningful change.
As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I am passionate about relational work. Whether I am working with an individual, couple, or family I am focused on supporting increased understanding, strengthening relationships, helping my client improve their ability to navigate life’s complexities with confidence. I recognize that many people are carrying unseen burdens while trying to meet the expectations of family, work, relationships, and faith. Therapy offers an opportunity to slow down, gain perspective, and move from surviving to thriving.
My faith is an important part of who I am, and for clients who desire it, I enjoy integrating Christian principles into the therapeutic process. Whether you are working through relationship challenges, anxiety, family dynamics, life transitions, or personal growth, I consider it a privilege to walk alongside you on your journey toward healing.
15 Years Experience
Online in Pittsburgh, PA Pennsylvania
Pittsburgh's post-steel identity brings civic pride alongside the lingering mental health effects of industrial decline, with therapists frequently addressing grief, economic anxiety, and intergenerational family dynamics rooted in its working-class heritage. The city's medical landscape is anchored by UPMC — one of the largest health systems in the country — and the University of Pittsburgh, both of which maintain extensive mental health training programs and community clinics. Pittsburgh has a growing creative and tech economy attracting young professionals, creating demand for therapists who work with identity, career transitions, and the particular stress of building a life in a city undergoing reinvention. Shadyside, Squirrel Hill, and the South Hills are among the neighborhoods with the strongest concentrations of private practices.
