Getting to know Michael (Mickie) Iadarola

I get it - life will inevitably throw stuff at us that can be hard to deal with and sometimes we're left feeling stuck, confused, or just alone. Our feelings and responses towards these can be difficult to handle on our own or even difficult to understand. I'm here to offer a safe, judgment-free space where we can reflect and work through it all together. My expertise is in relationships, substance abuse, behavior modification, past trauma, gender, sexuality, and self-discovery and growth. Whatever you're facing, I'm here to help you move towards a positive and healthy end-goal. The counseling relationship I wish to create is one of collaboration between you and me. I strive to create a safe enough environment in which you can let yourself address the emotional components of your life without fear that you won’t be made whole again by the end of our session. My therapeutic foundation is a client-centered one, with AEDP, Gestalt, and Motivational Interviewing principles built on top. My life experiences have granted me expertise in interpersonal relationships, self- development, addiction and dependency issues, and struggles with sexuality and gender. Being a musician and artist has taught me about creation, catharsis, and in seeing the ebb and flow of life’s many functioning parts. I do believe that personal growth will be difficult to achieve without challenging previous ways of thinking, so while we may push that to facilitate your own growth, I will be there with you during the entire process. Through a mutually created safe environment that features a sprinkling of challenges and an artful approach, I believe personal growth and emotional relief can happen for you. Therapy can be tough (especially in the beginning) but if you’re here reading this, then you’re already acting in your own best interests and I’m proud of you.
