Therapists in Connecticut
My ultimate goal as a therapist is to help others navigate the challenges of life and work towards helping them to achieve their best possible quality of life. I use an integrative approach, tailoring interventions specifically towards the needs of each individual I work with. After working for over 12 years in mental health I have developed a strong sensitivity to the importance of culture and other environmental factors to the healing process.

There are times in our lives when responsibility and the stress of life seem to weigh us down. Who understands better than you? Fear and worry, sadness, life transitions and loss rob us of our joy and drain our energy. Although for some it may be somewhat intimidating, the decision to seek counseling is an important step in gaining insight and finding options. Having a trained professional listen without judgement can be a liberating experience. Finding practical ways of dealing with your concerns together with someone who understands provides a level of hope and some initial confidence.

I believe everyone has a story to tell about their journey in life and what that experience has been like for them, but oftentimes, those stories go unheard or invalidated by others. This tends to open the door to developing negative distortions about ourselves; about who we are and our ability to succeed. Overtime, these distortions begin to overlap in other areas of our lives that not only affect our mood, motivation, self-esteem, and beliefs, but importantly, our relationships – our connection with family, friends and loved ones. Therapy provides the opportunity for you to share your story and begin the process of self-discovery.

Immediate openings available! Sometimes we are negatively impacted by situations, identity/relationship challenges, trauma, or other concerns, that are hard to navigate alone. I love working with women, LGBTQ+ folx, and those in alternative relationships (ENM, poly, kink, etc), to help navigate those unique struggles. It's hard being different! And being supported and validated should be non-negotiable. You want to be seen, and accepted, not just tolerated. I get you.
