Amelia Scarcella

Hi, I’m Amelia, an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist.

I have pursued a career in mental health because I have always been amazed by the human potential for transformation. I view therapy as a starting point for how you would like to transform your way of living and how you relate to others.

Oftentimes, transformation requires revealing and healing past wounds that continue to inflict pain and influence dysfunctional patterns. Transformation can also require recognizing and letting go of what is blocking your potential as an individual, family member, friend, life partner, or community member.

If you are looking for individual therapy, I am passionate about promoting an integrated sense of self, where harnessing your agency and living according to your values is part of your everyday life.

If you are looking for couples therapy, I help partners gain greater self-awareness, compassion, and communication strategies to strengthen their bond and comfort each other through adversity. 

It is an honor for me to get to know the depths of each individual I meet and to have the opportunity to reflect back the honor I see in their humanity.

MY APPROACH

MY PHILOSOPHY ON THE THERAPEUTIC EXPERIENCE AND CHANGE

Committing to a process of transformation takes courage and conviction.

I am committed to being your guide along your journey of transformation, however big or small, because I recognize the strength it takes to trust someone with your vulnerability.

My promise to you, as my client, is that I will try to understand with my whole heart what you feel called to transform and what influenced you to arrive where you are today.

At the start of our time together, we will collaborate to set clear goals you see for yourself or for your relationships so that by the time our work together comes to an end, you experience a tangible difference in how you feel and how you connect with others.

Any level of transformation often requires some discomfort. As much as there can be discomfort in transformation, there is promise of an equal or greater amount of beauty and grace.

That is the hope and reward I will persistently advocate to those committing to transform their mental health.

Ensuring a good fit between therapist and client is crucial for successful therapy. We offer a free 15-minute phone consultation to see if we're a good match. Taking this FIRST step to seek support is important, and we are honored to guide you on your path towards healing and personal growth.
