Dino Petruzzi

My communication style

The environment I create is one of compassion, honesty, and non-judgmental sessions with each client. I will use what works best with each client so that clients will feel safe, secure, and in a place that feels right for them.

My journey to mental healthcare

I started as a special education teacher working with special needs children in residential treatment facilities, group homes, and nontraditional schools. I wanted to work with this population because I was one of these kids, and no one seemed to help me. I did this for over 25 years, as well as being a counselor.

My goals for you

As a therapist, I find it essential to build goals with each client with their input because the client is going to gain more out of goals that they have a say in.

Our first session

The first session here at Rula Mental Health will be one of introductions and finding out more about the client. This first session is to gain information regarding the assessment and treatment planning for the client and to set their goals for therapy.
