Therapists in Connecticut
I specialize in treating children, adolescents, families and couples. I have over twenty years of experience in advocating and working collaboratively with pediatrics schools and parents in order to meet the specific needs of each individual child and their family. I believe strongly in empowering young people and their families by using a strengths based approach. I believe that parent and co-parent coaching can strengthen the core of the family, thereby allowing time for joy, active presence, and connection.

My approach to therapy is one that places an emphasis on understanding that we're human; we may laugh, there may be some emotions, but at the end of the day we're going to be real with each other and put in a little work together so we can get to a better result. I've had plenty of work with patterns of rough or toxic relationships, constant stress, difficulty managing emotions towards yourself or other people, folks feeling constantly taken advantage of, feeling on autopilot, numb, grieving changes, grieving people, loss, family issues, parenting or having a hard time keeping old things from popping up and affecting you now.

Art Therapy, is beneficial and a non-threatening alternative to traditional talk therapy. We all have the ability and creativity to connect to images generated by ourselves or by others. Art making has a primal component and brings great insight into our inner experiences. It's my passion and priority to create opportunities for others to recognize and develop their authentic self in a safe and supportive environment. My areas of focus include working with individuals, couples, families, trauma focused, relational, and substance dependency challenges. I also provided supervision hours for emerging art therapists.

Understanding your experiences & emotions is the gateway to change. I believe people can change, even when they struggle to believe that they can. I strive to help clients learn new skills, or enhance those they are already using, in order to improve all areas of their lives. Imagine how differently you might feel if you could overcome the obstacles that keep you feeling stuck in your life & relationships. Patterns that no longer work for you can be reshaped and built upon to make the most of who you are and want to become. With compassion and acceptance, I treat adults struggling with a range of issues affecting their well-being.

I am a registered nurse and licensed professional counselor. I am multi-dimensional in the services I provide. I see children, adolescents, individuals, couples, and families. I started my career working with and teaching children who were not psychologically ready to move from kindergarten to first grade. My love for helping people inspired me to go back to school and pursue a nursing degree. After moving to Connecticut, I worked as a psych nurse at Waterbury Hospital at Merriman Hall for 6 years. This was a locked unit and it was here that I learned all the family therapy methodology.

I am collaborative in my approach, and I feel it's best to work with you on setting attainable goals to aptly cope and manage the day-to-day life stressors.
