Find a Therapist in United States

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.  

I believe my role as a therapist is an honor. As I hold space for an adult client to share their journey, I do not take for granted the Client is the expert in their own life. Through my clinical experience and training we can together look at ways that treatment for the reasons that you may be looking for a therapist can be evaluated and healed.  

Providing a safe, confidential space for you to work on those Outcomes you wish to reach in counseling is my top priority. I believe there must be trust and rapport between us for growth to occur and I invite you to be honest and direct. In return I will do the same. BOOK ONLINE at www.healingoutcomes.com  

When life feels overwhelming, it can be hard to know where to begin. I offer a collaborative space where you can pause, reflect, and make sense of what you are going through. At the heart of my work is a deep respect for your story and your pace. I am here to walk alongside you as you reconnect with your strengths and discover new perspectives for a balanced life.

My approach is supportive, honest, and grounded. Therapy with me is a space where you can show up exactly as you are, without judgment, and begin building a life that feels more aligned and authentic.

Are you and your partner having the same argument over and over again, only to end up walking on eggshells? Do you wish you could be confident enough to speak up for yourself? Do you wonder if this relationship is right for you? I provide individuals and couples with practical tools to understand why the pattern continues, and how to change it. You will be provided with specific tools to help you manage conflict with grace and rebuild the friendship that brought you together in the first place, all the while maintaining an authentic sense of yourself. Together, we focus on building practical tools that help you communicate more clearly, manage conflict with greater calm, and reconnect with the friendship and trust that brought you together in the first place. At the same time, our work honors your sense of self. You can learn to show up authentically in your relationships without losing who you are or walking on eggshells to keep the peace.

I help people struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, self-esteem issues, or simply feeling lost. Many of us feel pressured to constantly strive for happiness, yet still end up feeling overwhelmed and not enough. Therapy provides a safe, non-judgmental space to explore your true self and your own needs, free from external expectations. My approach is warm, holistic, and collaborative. We'll work together to understand your concerns, build self-awareness, break old patterns, and heal from the past. Drawing on an understanding of cultural and life experiences, I help clients regain control, confidence, and hope for the future.  

My therapy practice stands out because I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered to grow. I take a personalized, results-driven approach, combining evidence-based techniques with real-life application so clients can see meaningful progress in their daily lives. I am committed to helping individuals build practical skills for managing stress, improving emotional regulation, and strengthening relationships. Clients should contact me if they are ready to make positive changes, gain clarity, and receive compassionate guidance from a therapist who is dedicated to their success and overall well-being.

We also offer integrative mental health care for mold toxin and some other environmental toxin exposure, and some TBI and PCS symptoms, as well as support for folks with chronic health related mental health needs that intersect with the above traumas.

If you feel overwhelmed by stress, stuck in spirals of anxiety or depression, uncertain about how to navigate a life transition, or disconnected in your relationship, you are not alone—and change is possible. Many of my clients are high-functioning individuals who appear to manage well on the outside but feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or stuck internally. Some are professionals dealing with job trauma, individuals navigating difficult life transitions, or people who find themselves overthinking, feeling emotionally drained, struggling with motivation and low mood, or committed couples caught in patterns of miscommunication and feeling disconnected. I help individuals and couples in Katy and the West Houston area find relief from anxiety, depression, stress, job-related trauma, and relationship challenges. Using Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) combined with practical cognitive and mindfulness-based strategies, I help clients process distressing experiences, reduce emotional overwhelm, and develop healthier ways of thinking, communicating, and responding to stress. Many clients find this approach helpful when traditional talk therapy alone has not fully resolved lingering anxiety, stress, or emotional triggers.  

We are experienced change agents here to help guide you during times of stress, change and challenges. We specialize in working with individuals who are ready to be empowered and make positive life changes. Our belief is that each of us deserves to live a more awake, happy, and beautiful life  

We are a collective of couples psychologists united by the shared conviction that relationships deserve more emotional care and community support than our culture provides. Building and sustaining a loving partnership isn’t meant to happen in isolation — it takes a village. In today’s world, we ask more of our partners than ever before. Our partners are our confidants, our co-parents, our lovers, our best friends, and the witnesses to both our strength and our vulnerability. This profound closeness is one of life’s greatest gifts, yet it can also create immense pressure. At PCT, we strive to be that village — a steady emotional anchor for couples navigating the highs and lows of connection. Every kind of couple is welcome here: those deeply in love, those in conflict, those recovering from betrayal, and those unsure of how to move forward. Together, we help partners rediscover what first drew them together while uncovering new ways to grow intimacy and trust. Our work isn’t about perfection — it’s about helping two people feel seen, understood, and supported as they evolve together. Sometimes, relationships reach a crossroads. The clinicians at PCT are skilled at holding space for both partners’ perspectives, guiding them through painful or uncertain transitions toward clarity and peace. That might mean learning to co-parent respectfully, parting ways with compassion, or exploring whether staying together is truly right. Even after a breakup, we help couples find a way to relate from steadier ground — because healing, too, is a form of love. We remain beside you for as long as you need, until the storm calms and a new balance emerges. We also offer individual therapy for those seeking personal growth, clarity, or support. Whether you’re navigating life transitions, managing stress, or simply looking to better understand yourself, our psychologists provide a safe, compassionate space to explore your goals and challenges.  

Something feels off, and maybe you've been pushing through it for a while now. Anxiety that won't quiet down. A relationship that's started to feel more like work than connection. Questions about who you are, what you want, or what you actually need, that you haven't had space to sit with. That's what therapy with me is for. I work with individuals and couples navigating anxiety, identity, and sexuality, relationship challenges like communication challenges, trust issues, conflict, and repair, and intimacy and sexual concerns that often go unspoken. I'm not here to hand you a protocol. I'm here to help you understand what's actually happening for you and move through it in a way that fits your real life. If you've been waiting for a space that's honest, real, affirming, and doesn't feel clinical or preachy, this is it.

Life can be unpredictable and overwhelming. Whether you're going through a faith shift, relationship change, are navigating your personal identity or are dealing with aging, grief or trauma, you can benefit from support. You want to feel understood, gain clarity, and move forward with confidence. You may benefit from tools that help you heal, make sense of it all and feel empowered. I offer a warm, supportive space where we’ll use tools like DBT, EMDR, ACT, CBT, and Motivational Interviewing to help you feel more grounded, resilient and empowered. I work with folks moving through grief, trauma, addiction recovery, faith shifts, aging, dementia, and identity transitions, including within the LGBTQIA+ community. You don’t have to go through this alone. I’m here to create a safe, supportive space where your experiences are heard and your healing is prioritized.

I'm alive, I'm awake and I feel gay, in the homosexual sense and the sense of joy. I’m a Filipina butch lesbian grown in Texas and brings the queer southern kindness with my presence. My ultimate goal is collective liberation, and that guides how I work with clients in supporting how situations, relationships and patterns of behavior and thoughts can align with their own personal values and goals  

You don’t need another space where someone nods at you and hands you a worksheet you’ll never use — and you definitely don’t need one where you have to explain or defend who you are. I provide gender-affirming therapy for adults across North Carolina and South Carolina, working primarily with trans, nonbinary, and queer folx navigating identity exploration, dysphoria, and the very real stress of existing in a world that doesn’t always get it. My work is trauma-informed and attachment-based, helping you make sense of patterns like overthinking, burnout, people-pleasing, and relationship cycles without pathologizing the hell out of you. This is a space that’s collaborative, honest, and actually feels human — where we unpack what’s keeping you stuck and build something that fits you better. If you’re looking for therapy that’s affirming, real, and a little more direct than the usual, you’re in the right place — go ahead and reach out.  

You deserve to feel perfectly enough in life, by learning to cope with a difficult childhood, a traumatic experience, or grieving a loved one. With any of these hardships, knowing your own emotions and needs can prove daunting. You might overwork, people-please, self-criticize, or over-caretake. You likely have feelings from the past that are tough to process. Therapy is a wonderful place for support in becoming your whole self with less stress.
