Scott Casadona

My communication style

I prioritize having a safe, supportive, non-judgmental environment. I practice active listening while exploring not only your symptoms but also the root cause of your distress. I will adjust my communication style based on your needs, whether that involves a more supportive, collaborative approach or one that is more directive.

My journey to mental healthcare

I have always been interested in therapy, the issues that people struggle with, and how best to help them, but I didn't start my career as a therapist until I had retired from law enforcement after a successful 25-year career. That experience was invaluable and has definitely been an asset in my journey from one helping profession to another.

My goals for you

Together, you and I will identify and set goals that matter to you and help you gain insight and tools needed for change. As this occurs, your goals and expectations will likely evolve based on your progress and degree of healing. The ultimate goal is self-empowerment by reducing or eradicating the issues that originally led you to therapy.

Our first session

Our first session will be an opportunity for us to get to know one another. We’ll discuss your background and what brings you to therapy, and what you hope to get out of it. Therapy is a process, and building a therapeutic relationship is a major part of that. In fact, it is the single biggest predictor of positive treatment outcomes.

I identify as...

• Male
• Caucasian or White
• Christian
