Therapists in Connecticut

As your therapist, I provide a warm and supportive space where you can talk freely without being judged. I won't just sit there – instead, I'll ask questions, offer suggestions, and reflect on what you share. Together, we'll work on dealing with the things that are bothering you in your everyday life, be it challenges with relationships, work, or family. Whether our work is one-on-one, with you two as a couple, my clients gain valuable insights and practical tools to get unstuck and move forward. Imagine leaving each session feeling understood, empowered, and equipped to navigate life with confidence.

Congratulations on this phenomenal step towards a healthier, joyous, and fulfilling life. Let me pour you a cup of tea/coffee and make yourself comfortable. As you journey through life, things sometimes do not go how you want or plan. You may not move forward due to anxiety, depression, fear, or trauma. You may be in a relationship that is no longer what it once was. You may struggle to adjust or transition to the next life phase. You may raise children/teens and often worry about their well-being, wonder what to do, or question every decision you make. You may feel lonely and wish you had somebody to talk to.

Everyone has a journey. Often times, journeys do not go as expected. I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and adults who are experiencing significant life stressors that get in the way of how they wish to live their lives or go on their journey. Through the therapeutic process, I seek to partner with people in order to assist them in reducing stress, increasing awareness, and learning coping skills to be their own best advocate.

Sometimes when life throws us a curve ball, or when we are dealing with a more chronic, ongoing challenge, talking to a therapist can help us see our inner strengths and abilities which can help us successfully navigate through these challenging times. A good therapeutic relationship, one that allows us to be fully ourselves while recognizing our unique potential, creates the optimal conditions for healing. I provide a place where you can feel safe to explore your most difficult feelings, to resolve grief and loss, heal childhood wounds, improve communication, increase self-esteem and develop more satisfying relationships.

My name is Ashley O'Neill and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker specializing in teen and adolescent mental health. I provide a safe and judgement-free space in addition to evidence-based treatment models and a variety of different treatment modalities to help adolescents, teens, and young adults with anxiety, depression, trauma, and difficulties in relationships and in life transitions.

I pride myself in being attentive to the needs of others struggling with depression, anxiety, and other life challenges that may be of concern. My goal is to build a trusting and authentic connection with anyone needing my help. We all deserve to be treated with dignity; I offer encouragement, empathy, and genuineness in a non-judgmental space. If you are feeling weighed down, or in need of support adjusting to life challenges, then I am here to help. By working collaboratively, we will hopefully build trust and cultivate emotional growth. Life's a journey and at some point, we all need guidance; let's take this journey together.

I believe that human beings are capable and strong when they are supported and can learn how to enlist support. I believe that with insight and awareness, individuals can change their thought and behavior patterns while exploring difficult emotions. I have significant experience with families, couples, experiential therapy, as well as trauma.

We all have difficult phases in life, which I believe are just that, phases. Relationship challenges, life transitions including being an empty nester can be hard. Solution focused therapy empowers you to evolve into your biggest support. I am experienced with people from all walks of life, belief systems and sexual orientation/lifestyles. I truly belief we are not defined by the way we are in the current habit of living. While change is hard, it is possible and you don’t have to live with obsessive thoughts and actions, debilitating depression, paralyzing anxiety or being chained to substances in order to function.

I believe that each person is inherently strong and holds the key to create the personal change desired. It is my job and privilege to provide the tools, support and encouragement for change and growth to occur.

Through my work with both individuals and couples, I hope to help my clients reach a level of peace and tranquility within their personal and professional lives. If you are someone who spends a lot of time worrying, self-criticizing, and self-doubting, you may notice that these behaviors interfere with your relationships within your family, at work, or in your romantic relationship. I am here to help guide you through these challenging times while utilizing therapeutic approaches to build on positive behaviors identified through counseling.
