The Alta Terra Team​
Finding a therapist can be challenging, but it doesn't have to be. It’s an opportunity to self-reflect on what you need most from a counseling relationship.
Anthony Laricchiuti
Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT​​​​​
​During any stage of life we are faced with challenges of many kinds. And these trials can keep anyone in the dark, not realizing that hope can be found.
If you're someone who is trying to figure out who you are in the world, trying to find their way, or who just needs a solid connection with a partner; if you recognize a problem and a longing for change or struggling with overwhelming thoughts and emotions that keep you pushed away, leaving you in the dark, then you’re not alone and I’m here to help.​ I believe creating a strong connection is a major step towards healing.

​
My approach to creating a therapeutic bond is person-centered and strength-based. As a family systems therapist, I long to understand how our present growth challenges are shaped by our history of connections. With that new awareness, we can pave the way for positive changes in healing.​
​
The key to any therapeutic process is a successful connection within the therapist/client relationship. It is important for the journey to have a therapist who can provide a safe space for your story to be heard and the skills to harness inner strength. It would be a joy to speak with you and to explore this journey together if I may be the right fit.
Sierra Laricchiuti
Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counseling Associate, LCMHCA ​​​​​
Hello, my name is Sierra! I’m a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counseling Associate and a Licensed Music Therapist in Boone, NC. I’m glad you’ve decided to venture here today. Chances are, you are here because you are seeking to gain some insight and support. This first step already shows your willingness to grow, resourcefulness as a person, and potential for building resilience. It’s important that you choose a clinician who is a good fit for your goals, personal values, and individual comfort level so that you can receive the most out of this experience.
​
Here’s what I can offer: a warm disposition, a safe environment, individualized counseling approaches from an accredited counseling program, and a collaborative approach to treatment.​
It’s important to me that as a client, you have the choice to feel empowered in collaborating on a treatment plan for your goal areas and feel encouraged to develop strategies to address areas of concern. If this is something that resonates with you, I would love to schedule a free 15-minute phone consultation to learn more about what you would like to work on in counseling to see if we would be a good fit together.
​
Additionally, as a Licensed Music Therapist, I can also (upon request) incorporate evidenced-based music therapy techniques as a part of your treatment plan if this is something that appeals to you.
I currently have a wait list for in-person sessions in Boone, NC and tele-health sessions outside of Boone for residents of North Carolina. If after we speak, you'd like to be placed on that list, we will make sure to reach out to you at our soonest availability.
