I am so glad you found this space! I am Noelle Rizzio and I created Noelle Rizzio, Counseling & Consulting because I had all of these ideas in my head for how to help others but they were all just floating there, in my head. I needed a space to contain them, organize them, and get them out where they could actually help! I have been a Counselor and Educator for about 20 years and I wake up every day thinking about how I can help others! I'm a wife and a mom, and a dog mom! I live in a little town in the midwestern US  and I'm just a regular person, just like you. I want to do what I can to make this world a better, more inclusive, inviting place. I'd love for you to join me on this journey!

Any of you helpers out there can relate to this story ~ I remember being in graduate school for counseling and the professors seemed to always say something along the lines of, "if you can reach ONE person" or "if you make a difference for ONE student." Having been a counselor and an educator for the last twenty years, I have reached that one person and I've made a difference to one student (hopefully more). But I got tired of ONLY making a difference to one person at a time. I really felt I could do something bigger, something more! Help MORE people. 

In my quest to help the masses, I started writing ~ blogs, articles, books ~ really anything that made sense to put my ideas on paper (or screen). I have written several articles and I have a couple children's books and journals on Amazon. I am currently working on a nonfiction, self-help book that I am hoping to pitch to publishers soon!

My passion is helping people! If you have ideas for how Noelle Rizzio, Counseling & Consulting can help people, I'd love to hear about them! If I have helped you, I'd absolutely love to hear about that too!! Contact me here!
