Gottman Method Couples Therapy
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 Couples Therapy
Dr. Joe Rustum
Psychologist, PsyD, License Psychologist
I work with high achievers, professionals, executives, and driven individuals who look capable on the outside but feel overwhelmed, self-critical, or stuck in constant overthinking. You may be managing career pressure, anxiety, burnout, perfectionism, procrastination, relationship stress, or difficulty setting boundaries. Even when things look successful from the outside, it can feel exhausting to keep pushing while privately second-guessing yourself.
My approach is practical, direct, and focused on helping you make meaningful changes in your day-to-day life. We will work on understanding the patterns that keep you stuck, building confidence in your decisions, improving boundaries, managing stress more effectively, and creating a healthier relationship with work, achievement, and responsibility. The goal is not just insight, but real progress.

Hannah Muetzelfeld
Psychologist, PhD
In our work together, we'll focus on identifying your inner strengths, building coping tools rooted in your values, and creating a meaningful, realistic path toward healing. Emotional pain is something we often try to avoid, but real growth begins when we allow ourselves to fully experience and understand those feelings. My approach centers around shifting from emotional avoidance to emotional acceptance. I work through an attachment-based lens, recognizing how early experiences shape our current relationships and emotional patterns. I also frequently incorporate self-compassion practices to help you relate to yourself with more kindness and care.
