Eating disorders and experiencing life stressors are often painful, exhausting, and really difficult to go through. People can get stuck in vicious cycles that are no longer productive but are maintained because it may be the only thing that helps. I can offer support to help break the cycles of eating disorders or life stressors to allow you more freedom and peace in your life. I believe that recovery is possible and everyone is deserving of recovery. With a little support, perspectives can shift, new discoveries can be made, and recovery can be possible. I am here to help support and guide you toward your path of recovery.

Not Accepting New Clients At This Time - I recognize it can feel overwhelming, maybe even a little scary, to search for a therapist at a time when you are struggling. I can assure you, with my experience and empathetic presence, I do my best to make the process feel seamless and welcoming. I have extensive experience working with children, young adults, families, and couples. I work full-time as a school-based therapist working with children and families navigating mental health diagnoses and challenging life circumstances. I welcome you to bring your challenges into my therapy room so that you don't have to navigate them alone.

Having a supportive person to talk to can help you better navigate your daily stressors and big life transitions. Are you feeling constantly worried about what to do next, overwhelmed by everything on your plate? Or perhaps you're trying to figure out what comes next in your life and you feel stuck, or unable to make that big decision?

I am called to SERVE. I have worked as a clinician for almost two decades and have had the pleasure of working with clients of all genders, from all racial backgrounds with various ages and needs. I meet my clients where they are emotionally with the goal of getting them to where they want to be in life by working through life's challenges and roadblocks. The years of training I received as a clinician and supervisor at the Yale Child Study Center have influenced my attention to detail, assessment, and collaboration. I encourage you to take this amazing journey of self-discovery and healing from inside and out with me.

Sometimes life puts us in tough situations that can often feel overwhelming. Facing these challenges alone can have a negative impact on a person. For some, it can feel burdensome sharing our feelings with friends and family. I approach my work with acceptance and compassion. Creating a safe place where you feel comfortable sharing your story. I am a licensed professional counselor in the state of CT with 10 years of experience working as a clinician with clients from all walks of life. I have experience working with diverse population and people of different age groups.

Hello, my name is Nicole Wetmore and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Connecticut who provides individual psychotherapy to adults (18+) both virtually and in-person.  I received my Master's Degree from Southern Connecticut State University in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology.

I believe we all have the capacity to learn and grow as individuals. I also believe it can be hard to heal our deepest wounds without support from others. I strive to cultivate a nonjudgmental, supportive space where my clients feel safe to work on sensitive issues. The first goal of therapy is often to improve your ability to deal with whatever problem is immediately in front of you. The next is to raise awareness of patterns in your daily life that prevent you from obtaining the peace and fulfillment you desire. We'll work together to get unstuck and find a way forward.

Do you often find yourself overthinking or feeling stuck, unmotivated, emotional, or lost? Are you looking for hope, direction, and peace of mind? Through over 20 years of experience in human services with adults, adolescents, and seniors from a variety of cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds, I have developed an eclectic and collaborative approach to working with people that includes focus on: Changing negative/unhelpful thinking, finding life balance, understanding and regulating emotion, managing relationship issues, overcoming motivational difficulties, learning to enjoy the present, and coping with trauma and addiction

Are you tired of feeling disconnected from yourself? Do you feel like you need to get rid of old ways of thinking so you can fully be yourself again? When you go through trauma, stress, loss, and confusion in life, it changes the way you see the world because you never, ever want to experience that again and you move through the world doing everything to avoid the risk of these horrible things ever happening again. This way may work for a while, but over time you feel disconnected from the world, those you love, and yourself. If you are ready to get rid of these ways of thinking and find space for you this world, I can help.

I'm dedicated to guiding individuals through mental health challenges like depression, anxiety, addiction, trauma, and existential crises. Using evidence-based therapies, including EMDR, I empower clients to regain control and find inner peace. With a focus on empathy and collaboration, I offer personalized support to foster lasting recovery and meaning in life. Let's embark on a journey towards healing and transformation together.

It can be difficult to ask for help, so let me start by congratulating you by taking the first steps in addressing your happiness and mental health. Your emotional health is very important and has an impact on your overall well-being. For far too long, stigma and fear of judgement has prevented people (especially people of color) from engaging in MH therapy.

Many children, adolescents and young adults are struggling with the pressure and stress of everyday life. Imagine having someone to help them cope with their difficulties, decrease negative feelings or self harming behaviors and increase feelings of self worth, hope and happiness. My goal is to give clients a safe and trusted space where they are comfortable to express their feelings in a calm and nurturing environment and are ready to challenge their thoughts, problem solve or just decompress. When you are ready, I am here and happy to work with you as part of your team!
