Who We Are
Guiding You Home to Your Strongest Self
Hi, I’m Maria Pipitone, founder of Pipitone Counseling Service LLC. Let me start by saying how proud I am of you for taking this step—even clicking onto our site takes courage when life feels heavy. Maybe you’re here because anxiety won’t quiet down, relationships feel stuck, or you’re just… tired. Whatever brought you, know this: You don’t have to figure it out alone.
Together all things are possible
My team and I aren’t here to “fix” you. You’re not broken. We’re here to walk beside you—through the messy, the uncertain, and the “I don’t even know where to start.” Think of us as guides with flashlights, helping you uncover strengths you forgot you had and paths you couldn’t see in the dark.
Our Philosophy: Your Story, Your Healing
We believe everyone deserves to be truly heard. Our eclectic, client-centered approach blends evidence-based methods to include CBT, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Mindfulness—tailored to your unique needs.
We Commit To:
Collaborative Care: Therapy is a partnership. We adapt to your goals, pace, and readiness to explore deeper healing. No Quick Fixes: Celebrate progress, but stay to resolve root causes when you’re ready. Independence Over Dependency: We equip you with lifelong tools, never keeping you “stuck” in therapy.
Maria’s Promise
Our Vision
At Pipitone Counseling Service, we envision a world where everyone has the tools and confidence to embrace emotional freedom and live their most fulfilling life. Our commitment is to provide a safe, judgment-free space where you are truly heard—not just listened to—by compassionate clinicians dedicated to your growth.
We believe in flexibility and adaptability, offering an eclectic approach tailored to your unique needs and goals. Our mission is to empower you to break free from the grip of negative emotions, allowing you to take charge of your actions and align your life with the vision you deserve.
Success, to us, is seeing you accomplish your goals and thrive independently. While we celebrate the milestones you achieve, we also recognize that healing often has deeper layers. When you’re ready, we’ll walk beside you to explore unresolved roots, fostering lasting emotional liberation.
Therapy with us is never a race to an endpoint. You’re welcome to stay as long as you need support, return whenever life challenges arise, and always apply the skills you’ve gained to navigate obstacles with resilience. We’re here to guide, not to be a crutch—because we believe in your innate ability to learn, grow, and transform.
Together, let’s unlock the tools and clarity you need to build your best life, one grounded in strength, self-trust, and boundless possibility.
Our Approach to Therapy
At Pipitone Counseling Service, we believe therapy is a collaborative, flexible journey—not a one-size-fits-all solution. Our approach is rooted in empathy, adaptability, and evidence-based practices, designed to empower you to reclaim control of your emotions and build the life you envision. Here’s how we work:
We tailor our methods to your unique needs, goals, and preferences. Drawing from a range of therapeutic modalities (such as CBT, mindfulness, psychodynamic therapy, and solution-focused techniques), we create a personalized plan that resonates with you. No two clients are the same, and neither are our strategies.
Our ultimate goal is to equip you with the tools and confidence to thrive independently. We focus on teaching practical skills—emotional regulation, communication strategies, self-awareness—so you can navigate challenges long after therapy ends. We’re here to guide, not to become a permanent crutch.
When you’re ready, we’ll explore the deeper roots of your struggles. Many surface-level issues stem from unresolved past experiences or patterns. By addressing these underlying causes, we help you achieve lasting emotional freedom and break cycles that hold you back.
You set the pace. Whether you need short-term support for specific goals or long-term exploration, we adapt to your journey. Therapy isn’t about rushing to an endpoint—it’s about growth, reflection, and readiness. We’ll regularly check in to ensure our work aligns with your evolving needs.
Complete your goals? Great! But therapy doesn’t have to stop there. You’re always welcome to stay, return, or dive into new layers of healing. We honor your autonomy and trust your intuition about what you need—whether that’s maintenance, crisis support, or deeper self-discovery.
We emphasize applying what you learn outside the therapy room. Through exercises, reflection prompts, and real-world practice, we help you integrate insights into daily life. Progress isn’t just about talking—it’s about doing.
Therapy with us is about partnership, growth, and reclaiming your power.
Let’s build resilience, not reliance—and craft a life where you’re in the driver’s seat.
