Hi! I’m Dr. Vanessa Cirulli. I’m a Clinical Psychologist with 10+ years of experience providing culturally- and trauma-informed service to individuals and groups from diverse walks of life. I work from a growth-oriented perspective and believe that the function of psychotherapy is to effectively move individuals toward their goals of less (unnecessary) suffering, improved functioning, and greater overall fulfillment.
My theoretical approach considers you first. I believe theory is like a language and
everyone’s languages differ. As I get to know you, we find this language together and I tailor my approach according to your therapeutic goals.
I was psychodynamically trained but my work is highly integrative and intuitive.
Reaching out for help is hard for many reasons, so most importantly, our first session is a time for creating safety and trust and establishing what you want and need from our time together. I consider the initial stages of therapy as “dumping out the pieces of the puzzle” to get a working formulation of your key goals - or lack thereof.
