Transformative Therapies for Lasting Change

I specialize in Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapy and Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT). These powerful therapeutic approaches have shown profound results in rapidly changing lives by addressing the root causes of emotional and physical pain. My goal is to help you heal, grow, and achieve the fulfilling life you deserve.
IFS Therapy is based on the understanding that our minds are composed of various "parts," each with its own thoughts, emotions, and roles. By connecting with your core Self and harmonizing with these parts, IFS helps you lead a more balanced and fulfilling life. This form of therapy is particularly effective for managing anxiety, depression, trauma, and major life transitions.
PRT is designed to help you understand and reshape your relationship with chronic pain. By altering your perception of pain and addressing its psychological roots, PRT empowers you to reclaim control over your life and diminish the frequency and intensity of pain.
  • Expertise: As a Certified IFS and PRT Therapist, I bring a wealth of knowledge and clinical experience to our sessions.
  • Personalized Approach: Each therapy session is tailored to your unique needs and experiences.
  • Safe and Affirming Space: My practice is a safe, compassionate, and affirming environment.
If you're ready to embark on a journey of profound healing and transformation, I'm here to support you every step of the way. Contact me today to schedule a free 30-minute consultation. Let's work together to create the change you’ve been seeking and help you live a life that truly reflects who you are.

Testimonials

Scott has a warm and calming presence. He is easy to talk to and down-to-earth. He is open about overcoming some personal challenges in the past, which made me feel comfortable sharing personal things about myself. Also, he is trained in Hakomi and EMDR. I am finding that EMDR is a great addition to talk therapy. I feel comfortable recommending him as a therapist.

Wow. Where do I even begin?
 
Scott Moresi is the best therapist I’ve ever had the privilege of working with, bar none. He is insightful, empathetic, and extremely knowledgeable in his field. We have worked extensively on questions surrounding identity, trauma, and mindfulness.
 
He has recommended countless books (all of which have been game changers for me), and I find myself continuously astounded by his wisdom and compassion.
 
I have seen many therapists in my life. If you’re looking for one who is both empathically gifted as well as intellectual, look no further. You’ve found your guy.

I have known Scott Moresi for over 13 years, originally consulting with him about graduate programs for becoming an MFT. Over the years, our paths have crossed in multiple ways and over all that time, I’ve been consistently impressed with his warmth, his dedication to honing his skills and supporting his clients, as well as his depth of insight. It does not surprise me one bit that Scott has been doing advanced professional skill development in both the Hakomi Method and EMDR, and pursuing certification in both modalities. From the very beginning, he has made it clear to me that he wants to work somatically and from a mindfulness-based approach. I have had complete confidence in sending Scott referrals over the years and imagine that any client would benefit greatly in working with him.
