Celeste Cianciulli, LCSW — Therapist in North Carolina

Hi there, I'm Celeste!

I have experience in several treatment settings, including inpatient and outpatient. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, and various addictions, as well as seniors experiencing challenges unique to their life phase.

My focus

I work with adults, and most present with anxiety and depression. In addition, I work with various addictions. I work with many seniors who are experiencing issues affecting seniors as they move through this life phase.

My approach

I primarily use Cognitive Behavior Therapy. My approach is to assess what the issue is that the person wants help with and move forward to help the individual feel better by utilizing a variety of treatment approaches based on what the client needs.

My communication style

I provide an environment that permits the client to open up about their problems in an effort to get some help in resolving their issues, in a non-judgmental approach.

My journey to mental healthcare

I experienced a lot of challenges early in my adult life, and when I decided to go to college, I found myself most comfortable in the path that I chose, which was social work.

My goals for you

Goal setting is primarily directed by the client. I encourage clients to express their desired outcome in their therapy, and reevaluation occurs during the course of their visits.

Our first session

The first session is to gather information about the clients' current concerns, including the duration of the problem and previous attempts to get help. This is when the client will be asked to discuss their desired outcome from ongoing sessions.
