Pascual Chen

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.

Amanda Mackanos

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Somerset, PA


I grew up in rural PA working on my grandfather's potato farm, learning equine therapy benefits starting at age eight. I joined the food industry as a waitress and worked throughout my RN undergrad.

I began my nursing career after earning my BSN from IUP in 2015, stepping directly into the fast‐paced world of behavioral health care within emergency room settings. Those early years shaped my clinical foundation and deepened my commitment to supporting individuals who have experienced trauma. I continued to grow, learning medicine, therapeutic communications skills, de-escalation techniques while working inpatient contracts at various facilities across PA, including child and adolescent units, adult and geriatric units, and correctional facility contracts.

Driven to expand efficient care through impact, I completed my MSN as a Psychiatric‐Mental Health Nurse Practitioner in November 2024. I initially provided inpatient hospital care, gaining valuable experiences in a new psychiatric treatment facility. As my career and family needs evolved, I discovered that remote psychiatric care offered the balance and flexibility that best supported both my professional goals and home life balance. My passion for farms, animals, and my large blended and busy family will help my clients see why I enjoy offering them a decade of behavioral health experience. With my advanced PMHNP training, I will deliver compassionate, accessible mental health support in a comfortable virtual setting.

Find the right couples therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your relationship — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Pittsburgh

Searching for couples therapists in Pittsburgh starts with knowing what you want to work on together. Couples therapy can support communication breakdowns, conflict patterns, trust after infidelity, major life transitions, parenting disagreements, and relationship stress. Not all therapists have specific training in couples work, so look for details in their profiles about Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist credentials, the Gottman Method, Emotionally Focused Therapy, or other couples counseling experience.

In a mid-sized city like Pittsburgh, you may find strong options across neighborhoods while still needing to compare schedules, session format, and fit for both partners. Some couples prefer meeting in person, while others use virtual appointments to make scheduling easier across work, caregiving, or commute needs. As you compare Pittsburgh couples counseling options, review each therapist’s bio for how they structure sessions, whether they offer a brief consultation, and how they describe working with both partners.

Marriage counseling in Pittsburgh can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, review estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront, and book directly when you’re ready to choose someone who matches your needs and schedule.

If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
