Suicidal Ideation Therapists in Manchester, CT

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience working with children, adolescents and families. I have worked in Partial Hospital Programs, local emergency rooms, schools and as a consultant at a local juvenile detention facility. I enjoy working with clients to address issues of depression, family conflict, divorce, delinquency, suicidal thoughts, self-harm, and aggression. I have witnessed the resiliency of families during the most difficult times of their lives.

Is depression or anxiety keeping you from engaging with life as you want to? Are your relationships suffering because of communication issues or mental health problems? Have you tried therapy in the past but stopped because it felt impersonal or formulaic? Dealing with mental health issues affects how you think about yourself, interact with loved ones, and how much effort you can use to chase your goals. If you’re ready to find positive solutions to your mental health and relationship issues, therapy with a person-centered approach may help.

I have experience working with many different client concerns, including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, substance use problems and interpersonal/family conflict. I also have particular expertise working with people who have survived some form of trauma, including childhood abuse, sexual assault, interpersonal violence, military trauma and accidents/injury. The effects of trauma are complicated and clients often request help with many different symptoms, including depression, severe anxiety/fear, substance use problems, sleep disturbances and interpersonal difficulties. Because of the complexity of clients' struggles, I use a variety of approaches in helping clients heal.

I believe that counseling should be affordable, accessible, and pursued without shame. Let's be honest, we have ALL encountered things in our lives that have impacted our mood, feelings, behaviors, thoughts, reasoning, judgement, decision-making and beliefs. Making the decision to invest in yourself and your personal wellness through counseling, takes courage. At Branch and Vines Counseling Corner, high value is placed on the pursuit of wellness and balance through connection. You do not have to isolate or navigate difficulty all by yourself.

I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in private practice for the past 15 years. I provide individual, family and marriage therapy addressing a wide variety of issues. I approach mental health issues from a developmental and family systems perspective taking into account the life stage and family situation that individuals come from. My specialty areas include adolescent treatment, marital therapy, divorce and family issues, adoption and substance abuse. I work closely with schools, doctors, and other outside systems that impact the mental health of the individual or family system.

Currently accepting new patients with daytime availability. My approach is person-centered, compassionate, and non-judgmental. In person or telehealth sessions are available depending on your individual needs. With either format, I aim to provide a safe space for you. I utilize a holistic approach and will meet you where you are in order to achieve your goals. I will also incorporate spirituality and faith into our sessions (if appropriate), as it may fit your needs and help to achieve your goals. If you are seeking treatment for your child, I also offer parenting coaching and support in order to treat the full family system.

Living with a mental illness can be exhausting and lonely. You might find you have no energy to do anything, even the things you used to love doing. You might find you have thoughts that make you feel worse. Maybe you struggle with anxiety or trauma and feel like you are always on edge and must push yourself to do the “simple” things. Maybe "feeling better" seems out of reach. Many feel feel like nobody understands the struggles each day brings. Life can get better. It might be hard to read and believe that statement and it's true that life does not have to be one struggle after another.

Accepting clients! Deciding to start therapy is hard, and finding the right therapist for you can be even harder!

I would love to walk with you on this journey, providing a safe space. Fostering growth and vulnerability challenging you to work through your story or anything that is impacting your ability to show up as your best self!

My goal is to assist you with working through life's challenges by providing the tools and strategies needed in order to live a healthy, happy and successful life.

Is the hurt of a traumatic past still weighing on you? Or maybe you’re struggling with a toxic relationship or can’t find the confidence to stand up for yourself. I can help you learn to let go of the past. Even if it’s been months, years or even decades, there is hope. The idea of rebuilding our life is daunting, but not impossible. Above all, I help people cope with anxiety, depression and substance abuse to get back to living life to the fullest and being the best version of themselves.

Hello, and welcome to Inner Wellness Counseling Group. We are a group of therapists with different backgrounds and specialties trained in treating children through adults with various mental health and/or substance abuse issues.

Sometimes it can be hard to get through the day, and even harder to get through the night. Sometimes we can feel lost, empty, unmotivated, angry or anxious. Maybe all at once, or maybe we feel nothing at all. Feeling trapped, confused, and stuck in our emotions, thoughts, or circumstances can be painful; it doesn’t have to be. Sometimes trying to cope on our own can seem overwhelming. I offer caring, empathetic, non-judgmental, effective therapy backed by 10 years of mental health experience. Everyone deserves to live a life full of enrichment, and personal fulfillment.

I won’t give a long spiel about hope and joy here, but what I will say is that life is hard and therapy can be really helpful in managing the ways in which what we have been through impacts us.
