About

Hello... I am Elaine Quattro, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist I see myself as a change agent helping clients by empowering them to explore their strengths and attain the personal growth they are committed to accomplishing. My approach I am an interactive, solution-focused therapist. My approach is to provide support and practical feedback to help clients effectively address personal life challenges. I integrate complementary methodologies and techniques to offer a highly personalized approach tailored to each client. My focus With over 25 years of experience as a marriage and family therapist, I work with a broad spectrum of clients. Among my areas of expertise are assisting men and women to find their true strengths and identify what might be stealing their joy. I use proven techniques to help improve communication in all types of relationships and use the power of cognitive beliefs to help with depression and anxiety. I have a business background also and provide direction with career transitions. My communication style It is a privilege for me to work with clients who are seeking change but not sure how to get there. In non-judgmental ways, I assure that clients are comfortable so that we can address the issues they want to work on. I am solution-focused so am direct about the work required for clients to make necessary changes to meet agreed-upon goals. My journey to mental healthcare I was in the business world of marketing for many years. I decided to go back to graduate school in my 40s to study counseling psychology. I consider it a privilege that people come to me and trust that I am able to help them. My goals for you I work with the client to mutually create goals that are attainable and to look at how those goals can be measured to reflect growth and change. I ask outright how the client would know if therapy was working in 3 months, 6 months, etc. My first session with you My style is to create rapport by asking questions.
