Adam Scalese

Psychologist, PhD, PSYPACT
Last Updated 30+ days ago

I have years of experience working with college students and young adults. I work with most concerns that college age students face regarding their mental health. Also, I am passionate about helping individuals and couples of all genders and sexual orientations improve their sexual health and sexual relationships. I help clients explore the meaning of sex, find greater sexual pleasure, and address sexual problems. I also work with out-of-control sexual behavior (OCSB), sometimes called sexual compulsions or sexual addictions. This includes navigating moral, religious, and erotic conflicts around sexuality.

Being a college student or young adult can be difficult and we all need support at times. As a therapist I build supportive and collaborative relationships with my clients to help them in their growth and development. Others describe me as warm, caring, skillful, and humorous. Therapy will be a place you learn more about yourself so that you can make meaningful change. I am happy to chat with you to identify if we are a good fit before beginning therapy.
