Root & Rise Clinical Specialists
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-R
At Root & Rise, we believe that affirming LGBTQIA+ identities isn’t optional—it’s foundational to our practice. As a clinic co-led by Kristina Scaglione, LCSW-R, who has long worked with LGBTQIA+ individuals, couples, and families, we bring both lived-awareness and clinical fluency to gender, sexuality, non-traditional relationships, and identity transitions. Kristina’s background includes developing LGBTQIA+ mentoring initiatives, advocacy work on transgender rights, a history of designing programs for domestic violence in LGBTQIA+ settings, and maintaining licenses across NY, CT, FL, and MA.
We do more than use inclusive language. We purposefully integrate modalities like CBT, EFT, trauma-informed care, holistic work and attachment/identity processing in ways that honor your unique lived experience—not in a “one-size-fits-all” way, but tailored to intersectionality, relational complexity, and the broader context of systemic stressors. This means we--you--feel seen, validated, held accountable, and empowered.
If you’re seeking therapy where your gender, orientation, relationship style, and authentic self are embraced (not merely tolerated), and where the path ahead is built on clarity, safety, and growth, Root & Rise is ready and fully equipped to support you.

Maria Elizabeth LeBlanc
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, M.Ed MSW LICSW
Today, more than ever, those identifying as LGBTQIA+ need support and understanding from a skilled clinician familiar with the joy and challenges of living true to one's identity. I have worked extensively with those both questioning their orientation/identity and those that are fully out (or out to varying degrees) in navigating family, work, and societal challenges.
