Therapists in 06250

Specializing in treating those who have experienced trauma, grief and loss, as well as those with anxiety, mood and substance use disorders.

At any given time we are doing the best we know. As a therapist, my work helps each client to experience and explore themselves honestly as they are. By helping to create a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental climate, I assist you to transform old patterns from the inside out.

Welcome! My name is Dr. Joanna White and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Connecticut. I have my School Counseling Certification in Connecticut and also am a University Professor in Human Services and Social Work.

Not accepting new clients at this time/ Hello! Are you looking to make positive changes in your life? I would be honored to share your journey and help you discover and develop strengths that will move you forward toward reaching your goals. Change is hard but is made easier with support and guidance. I offer you non-judgmental support in achieving the goals you wish to accomplish. I have experience working with a range of issues (anxiety, depression, substance abuse, relationships, trauma, grief and loss) and have a flexible approach based on individual needs. I draw from a variety of counseling theories and techniques.

I am a licensed clinical social worker, with extensive experience in individual and couples counseling. My specialties include couples and marriage counseling, anxiety disorders, depression, stress management, self-esteem issues, loss, relationship and vocational counseling.

I'm a Licensed Psychologist and Nationally Certified School Psychologist with over 30 years experience. I see families and individuals of all ages providing a personal, pragmatic and supportive approach in addressing life's difficulties. My philosophy is solution-focused care utilizing a goal-directed approach. I recognize that each individual and family is unique and I attempt to provide the most appropriate services on an individual basis.

I offer both brief counseling and longer-term therapy, using a warm and nonjudgmental approach. My role includes supporting clients with increasing overall well-being. This may involve help with responding more effectively to anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, losses, health concerns, or challenges in relationships/work/school. Past issues or traumas that are contributing to current difficulties may also be addressed.

If you're stuck in a pattern of behavior or thinking that isn't working for you and you want to feel better, I welcome your call! I use traditional psychotherapy as well as acupressure and other body-based techniques to help clients improve quickly. I particularly enjoy working with individuals who are interested in a holistic approach to healing that includes incorporating diet, exercise and mindfulness strategies. I also run groups for men and women throughout the year.

Welcome to creating positive change in your life. My goal is to help you identify the issues that have been the most challenging, and helping you work towards finding solutions that will move you towards achieving a more fulfilling life. Feel free to contact me via email or phone call so that we can discuss how I may be of help to you. Help is available. You have only to embrace it with hope, and a willingness to move forward with your life.

I understand that we can benefit from help if we feel stuck, overwhelmed or not sure where to turn. Sometimes people get stuck in patterns that may have been helpful but have become limiting or even destructive. I believe therapy can provide deep healing which allows for greater flexibility, ease, self knowledge and enjoyment of life. With 20+ years of experience, I have been successful in helping my clients through depression, substance abuse, anxiety, panic and grief and loss or just gaining more satisfaction with their lives. It has been an honor for me to do this.

My work focuses on positive relationships - with yourself and others - based on compassion and fearless self-awareness. Even when we are thinking, feeling or doing things that we don't like, there is something about it all that makes sense. Uncovering the mystery of that logic is important to therapy. This process helps us come home to ourselves and to the present moment. I specialize in individual and couple goal oriented therapy. I also have considerable expertise in parent-child relationships, behavior management and emotional intelligence in children (see more at www.PositiveParentingCT.com).

Choosing a therapist to help guide you on your life's journey can be difficult. Congratulations on taking this step! With nearly 30 years of clinical experience I have come to believe that it is the relationship between therapist and client that supports client growth and change. I provide a gentle, challenging approach to guide your journey in identifying, understanding and actualizing your goals. My areas of specialty include trauma and loss, grief work, men's issues and those challenges associated with aging and retirement. I accept most major insurance companies and sliding fees are available if needed.

Welcome - if you here reading my profile, I suspect you have become curious about something that doesn’t seem quite right? Behaviors that create issues, emotional reactions that destroy relationships, addictive patterns that results in negative consequences, lack of motivation due to depression, the list goes on. What each and every symptom has in common, is that they are the result of unresolved pain. There are hidden memories connected to that pain, that needs your attention. I will guide you in such a way that you will work with your symptom and I will show you the pathway to your own healing. It’s quite remarkable.

Sometimes in life we can get off track or even experience circumstances beyond our control that just throw us off our course. Finding direction and getting back on track can be difficult, just as difficult as finding a listening ear and someone we can trust and depend on. I'm here to say that it doesn't have to be, and I'm here to begin the journey with you wherever you are in that process.
