Additionally, my background includes years of specialized clinical training as an Oncology Nurse Practitioner. This medical expertise gives me a profound, holistic understanding of how chronic illnesses, cancer treatments, and physical diagnoses intersect with psychiatric symptoms. Whether navigating the emotional trauma, anxiety, and depression that accompanies an oncology journey, or addressing everyday mental health hurdles, I bring clinical authority and deep empathy to safely to your care.

Our practice specializes in diagnosing and treating conditions across the lifespan with children, teenagers, adults. seniors and pregnant females, including ADHD, generalized anxiety, panic disorder, depression, mood disorders, bipolar stabilization, trauma, and PTSD.

Pascual Chen

Psychologist

Virtual & in-person • 12 mi away • Wexford, PA


I'm Dr. Pascual Chen, a licensed clinical psychologist and the founder of Clarity Psychological Services in Wexford, PA. For over a decade, I've had the privilege of walking with individuals, couples, and families through life's hardest seasons — anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship struggles, and the search for meaning and direction.

I earned my undergraduate degree in Psychology from Wheaton College in Illinois, and my Master of Science and Doctor of Psychology (Psy.D.) from Hofstra University in New York. I'm also a certified trauma therapist and a certified school psychologist in Pennsylvania.

My approach is integrative and evidence-based. I draw from, but not limited to, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), emotionally-focused therapy (EFT), solution-focused therapy, and the Gottman Method for couples — always tailored to the person in front of me. For clients who want it, I also offer faith-integrated Christian counseling, weaving prayer, Scripture, and a Christian understanding of healing alongside proven clinical care. It's always available, never imposed.

More than anything, I believe healing begins with feeling understood. My goal is to bring you hope, insight, and practical steps toward the life you were created to live.
