Alex Corkos, MA, LMFT

Making the decision to seek help can be difficult and choosing the right therapist can often be overwhelming. I offer a confidential and no-cost phone consultation where you can get all of your questions answered. Contact me to help you decide if I am the right therapist for you. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I provide competent, compassionate and confidential online therapy to residents of both Pennsylvania and California along with in-person therapy from the South Hills area of Pittsburgh.

I specialize in restoring relationships exclusively to couples from a strength-based, goal oriented approach that recognizes the importance physical, emotional, social and spiritual wellness play in maintaining balance in one’s life. I offer effective, individualized counseling in a caring environment that’s safe, comfortable and welcoming. I help those I work with address interpersonal, marital and partner conflicts along with a wide array of concerns and life stressors including depression, anxiety, adjustment problems, career frustrations and parenting issues.

Therapy provides ways to express feelings, understand patterns of thinking, gain perspective on past events and current relationships, set goals, and clarify dreams for the future. Therapy can both alleviate pain and suffering and add meaning and richness to life. I employ a range of techniques and methods, some suited to particular emotional issues and others that can be applied to those dealing with a variety of everyday concerns.

Therapy can help you understand and re-frame your problems and concerns. It can teach you specific emotional, social and problem-solving skills and can help you gain more satisfaction from your work and your relationships. My office can be a safe haven where you are free to express private thoughts and struggles. Friends and family members can provide excellent emotional support but a therapist can give you a trained and more impartial perspective on your life and guide you on your path to recovery.
