My name is Raquel M. Massaro. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and also a Certified Yoga teacher. I am here to help you process all your life challenges and to create a balance that will allow you to find inner peace, to help you go through this journey. I am a true believer of the balance between mind and body. We will start this path together. I will teach you to face all situations and you will be the one to find the solution, YOUR solution. My purpose is to be here for you. 

Welcome! You have just taken the difficult step of seeking help… so be proud of that first and foremost. “When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change” is one of my favorite quotes by Dr. Wayne Dyer. It reflects my approach to therapy as I believe perspective is key to improving one’s mental health and wellness, regardless of the specific challenges a person is facing. My primary goal as a therapist is to support clients as they navigate the ups and downs in life as well as guide them through the process of healing from past traumas. The approach I take will build upon the strengths you have and I look forward to supporting you in reaching the goals you have for yourself (or helping you identify goals, if needed). I have served individuals, children and families for more than 12 years, and look forward to supporting you as well. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me with any questions you may have. Until then, be well, and good luck on your healing journey!
