One-on-One Therapy

Meeting with a therapist one-on-one allows me to give you customized and specific attention that is not possible in a group setting.

Couple’s therapy is for all human beings (Love Is Love) in various types of relationships in distress or working to improve these relationships before issues arise.

Executive coaching & consulting can create awareness, generate action, facilitate learning and growth to optimize leadership development, even during difficult decision making.

Journey To Healing

My therapeutic work with identity (race and LGBTQ+), trauma, sex positivity, family issues, intimacy/dating, relationships, adolescents, and disabled individuals allows me to understand how people cope with the complexities of life, and I honor your strength and courage in finding your voice and place in the world. You have taken the first step in seeking help, and I hope that your initial contact with me will begin a meaningful and purposeful journey together.

Develop Your Action Plan

In most aspects of our lives, we make a plan. We plan our vacations, make reservations for dinners, etc., and we plan to spend time with friends, family, and loved ones. Taking time to engage in self-care and prioritize your well-being is important. Whether we are discussing engaging in therapy, consultation services, coaching, or supervision, establishing credibility early on in my work with you is vital to creating a working and professional relationship that is rooted in trust.  There is no limit to what we can accomplish when our critical thinking skills, imagination, and creativity come together.

 

Let’s get started!

What People Say

Shawn (they/them)

I did not think that I would find a therapist to meet my needs, especially in Pittsburgh. As a Philadelphia native, working with Neal virtually has allowed me to work on trauma and anxiety symptoms in a virtual space that is safe and affirming. 

Cindy (she/her)

I met Neal at a social networking event in Philadelphia and decided to engage in therapy with him. Virtual therapy with Neal has allowed me to work on my identity issues to find my voice and create the boundaries I need in my life to find work/life balance. 

Paul (he/him)

As a person of color living in Philadelphia who struggled with how to navigate systems that didn't always validate me. Neal has helped me to enhance my self-esteem and confidence.
