Psychotherapy, Advocacy, & Mental Health
Authentic Connection
Carly Rizzo, MA, LAPC, NCC (she/her)
Trauma focused therapy for adults and teens
Philadelphia, PA Virtual
I believe that authenticity is at the core of the therapeutic relationship, which is why I show up as myself every session. When people have experienced relational trauma, creating a secure relationship that allows you to feel trust, safety, vulnerability, compassion, and empathy, is paramount in repairing these wounds that continue to impact your life.
Whether this is your first time seeking out therapy, you're returning to therapy, or looking for a new therapist, your story matters and deserves a safe and confidential space to be shared and heard. My focus remains on the therapeutic relationship, which serves as a model to explore your relational experiences.
