Christine Italiano-McDade, LPC
Hi there, my name is Christine Italiano-McDade and I have a passion for people! I have been working with children, adolescents, adults, and families for approximately 15 years. The therapy process can be like a voyage to the top of a mountain. Climbing a mountain can be time-consuming, exhausting and daunting at times. It is necessary to have the proper equipment in order to prevent serious injury. Even with adequate equipment, sometimes accidents happen, and points present throughout the journey that have you contemplate turning back or giving up.
In therapy, motivation is one of the key pieces of equipment you need. The therapeutic relationship and process can create opportunities to discover new territory and claim victory over challenges. Let me help you claim victory in your life and successfully progress through uncharted territories.
