About

Therapy for Understanding, Connection, and Meaningful Change

You may be dealing with anxiety, stress, relationship difficulties, grief, anger, a major life transition, or simply a sense that something isn’t quite right. Sometimes you know exactly what brought you to therapy. Other times, you just know you want to understand yourself better and figure out what comes next. Joseph Hegedus, LPC and Ed Casaldi, LPC provide outpatient therapy for adults in a supportive, respectful environment where you can talk openly, develop greater self-awareness, build practical coping skills, and work toward meaningful change. Joseph and Ed bring their own experience, personality, and approach to the therapeutic relationship. Finding a therapist who feels like a good fit matters, which is why you can learn about both therapists and choose who you’d like to work with when you request an appointment. Joseph Hegedus, LPC Joe believes therapy works best when it is collaborative. You know your life better than anyone, and therapy provides an opportunity to step back, look at what’s happening with greater clarity, and explore what may be getting in the way of where you want to be. His approach is conversational, practical, and client-centered. He draws from solution-focused therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), existential therapy, mindfulness, and body awareness to help clients better understand their thoughts, emotions, behaviors, relationships, and patterns. Sometimes therapy involves developing specific skills or working toward a particular goal. Other times, the most important work is slowing down long enough to understand what you’re experiencing and why. Joe works with adults experiencing a variety of concerns, including anxiety, stress, depression, relationship difficulties, anger, life transitions, grief, self-esteem concerns, men’s issues, and other challenges that can make life feel more difficult than it needs to be. You don’t have to be in crisis to benefit from therapy. Sometimes therapy is simply an opportunity to gain perspective, improve your relationships, understand yourself more deeply, or make a change you’ve been thinking about for a long time. Joseph provides in-person therapy in Upper St. Clair and secure online therapy throughout Pennsylvania. Ed Casaldi, LPC Ed Casaldi, LPC brings decades of experience working with adults who are navigating anxiety, depression, self-esteem concerns, relationship difficulties, and the challenges that come with everyday life. His approach is warm, supportive, and conversational. Ed believes that creating a comfortable therapeutic relationship is an important part of the process, giving clients a place where they can speak openly, feel understood, and work through what’s happening in their lives. Therapy with Ed involves exploring patterns of thinking and behavior, understanding emotions and relationships, building confidence, and developing practical ways to manage life’s challenges. Whether you’re dealing with a specific concern or simply feel that something needs to change, Ed offers an experienced and approachable space to work through it.
