Our Story
A Decade of Transformation
Since 2014, New U by Design has been a trusted partner in behavioral health — helping individuals, families, and professionals across the Pittsburgh region and Pennsylvania find their path forward.
Who We Are
More than a practice — a community of healing.
New U by Design was built on the belief that behavioral health care should be accessible, compassionate, and genuinely effective. Over the past decade, we've grown into a thriving group practice with a team of dedicated licensed professionals who share one common purpose: helping you become the best version of yourself.
