About Emilio Rizzo

Emilio Rizzo, LCSW, is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Pennsylvania with over a decade of experience helping individuals and couples navigate anxiety, mood disorders, substance use, and relationship conflicts. A proud alumnus of the University of Pittsburgh, Emilio holds both a Bachelor’s and a Master’s degree in Social Work with a specialized concentration in Mental Health.

Emilio’s practice is rooted in a person-centered, solution-focused approach. By integrating EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) alongside Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), he provides a robust framework for processing trauma and breaking through long-standing emotional barriers.

Whether you are seeking short-term, targeted intervention for a specific challenge or long-term, deeper therapeutic work, Emilio is dedicated to fostering positive, lasting outcomes. His goal is to create an environment of radical acceptance where clients feel empowered to reclaim their lives.
