Nicolette Gottuso, LMFT, SUDCC IV-CS
HI THERE. I AM NICOLETTE!
I specialize in substance use, addiction recovery, codependency and attachment disorders. My goal is to help you find the connection between self-esteem, shame and unhealthy coping skills.
Psychotherapy is a creative, dynamic and magical experience. I strive to create that space for you.
Who I Treat
Adolescents/Young Adults
My area of expertise is adolescents and young adults, specifically with co-occuring disorders. I am skilled in treating depression, anxiety, attachment disorders, oppositional defiance and addiction.
Couples
I enjoy working with couples at any stage of the relationship. I work with LGBTQIA+ couples and straight couples. Whether you are wanting preventative therapy or therapy to help resolve conflicts and ruptures, that process can be done here.
Family work is some of the most important work that can happen in therapy. The family system is important to explore and help strengthen each member as a team, together.
Families
MY MISSION
My passion is helping people through a depth psychological lens, working off of strengths that you already possess. I conduct sessions knowing that most of us come to therapy with deep rooted shame that keeps us in toxic cycles and patterns of thinking. Naming the shame and working towards self-compassion is where the magic happens.
