Counseling
Picture
 As a Therapist we will meet in my quiet and comfortable office that provides a confidential and safe environment. I see my role as a skilled guide that will help you explore social and psychological areas in your life where you want to heal, grow and thrive. I focus on your qualities, strengths and talents that enable you to be happier and more fulfilled in your relationships starting with the most important relationship, the one you have with YOU. 

Counseling is a process of gaining deep insight and using this insight to resolve problems that are interfering in one’s sense of wellbeing, productivity, relationships, and living out one’s fullest potential. The therapeutic benefits of in-depth counseling should lead to life altering changes, better relationships, increase income, improved physical and emotional health, and happiness.  
My specialty areas include:
  • Couples,  Individuals & Adolescents
  • Substance Abuse & Addiction
  • Life Transitions, Grief, Job Loss
  • Bipolar disorder, depression and Anxiety
  • Relationship & Communication Skills

"Pilar knows what she is doing. She is highly educated, experienced and professional. She listens intently and provides direct guidance. I have wasted my time with mediocre "in network providers" in the past, every session with Pilar yielded benefits." 

“My spouse has bipolar disorder.  I have had the privilege to work with Pilar Placone for more than 6 years.  Pilar's comprehensive knowledge of the bipolar disease has allowed me to become educated about my husband's condition.  With her help, we now effectively manage the disease and have a better marriage with increased communication.   Pilar is very compassionate, friendly, warm and attentive to work with.  She receives my highest recommendation!”
