What should a new client know about working with you?

I see psychotherapy as a process of discovery between two people that can yield great personal growth and transformation. I aim to promote a safe, supportive and trusting psychotherapeutic relationship that facilitates the exploration of areas of difficulty, hurt, and vulnerability. I work to guide my clients to have insights into their own unproductive behaviors from new perspectives, have increased confidence, and gain self-acceptance. I ask probing questions and point out inconsistencies while providing feedback, advice, insights, and observations.

Dr. A immediately quelled my nerves about seeing a therapist upon out first session. She’s thoughtful, collected, and very down to earth. She immediately put me at ease, which via a zoom call is quite impressive. If you’re at all weary about therapy, I highly recommend her!

Verified patient
I Dr. Altiero's reviews and bio. She seemed like what I was looking for, but I was still a little anxious. After meeting with her, I knew I made the right decision. Our virtual session started right on time. She was able to retrieve some of the background information she needed while going through our session. It was a seemless transition. My experience made me feel like I was talking to a few friend as opposed to a therapeutic setting. It was a great first session. I look forward to more.
