Luke O. Rielly (he/him/his)
LPC, LMHC

I left a successful career as a magazine publishing executive in NYC to obtain a master's degree in Mental Health Counseling. After receiving my degree, I worked for several years at a dual-diagnosis addiction recovery program. There, I gained experience counseling those with addictions/addictive behaviors, as well as a host of other presenting issues including (but not limited to) depression, anxiety, trauma, co-dependency/relationship issues, sexuality, personality and mood disorders. My journey to become a licensed mental health clinician has been a long one, but the ability to assist others in the process of self-awareness and self-actualization has been life-giving.

The client-therapist relationship is the cornerstone of successful treatment and I nurture this through compassion, active listening, trust and 100% commitment to every client. Taking steps to improve your life takes courage. I will work hard to ensure that you feel heard, validated and empowered along the way.
