Hello! My name is Akirah Wyatt and I’d love to share a little more about myself with you.

Over a decade ago, I earned my Master’s Degree in Social Work and I’m now a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. Much of my clinical training was completed at Western Psychiatric Institute and Clinic in Pittsburgh, though I also have experience working with survivors of domestic violence, unhoused communities, and adolescents.

Currently, I specialize in treating women in the perinatal period and adults experiencing OCD and anxiety. I’ve been trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Prolonged Exposure, Exposure and Response Prevention for OCD and other anxiety-related disorders, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. Most of the interventions I utilize in therapy are from these modalities. Additionally, I am presently completing the necessary requirements to earn my certificate in perinatal mental health (PMH-C).

I believe in a collaborative approach to therapy, where we work together to identify your goals and develop a personalized treatment plan. My ultimate hope is to help each of my clients live a life that aligns with their deepest values. I do this by offering a warm and compassionate therapeutic environment where my clients can feel safe to explore their thoughts and feelings. If this lines up with what you’re looking for in a therapist, I’d love to hear from you. Let’s connect soon!
