ConnectiCare Therapists in Milford, CT

I work with clients, couples and families to lower anxiety and improve communication within the family and extended family. Often it helps to work with childhood trauma, or neglect as these things can carry forward into current relationships. I do work with helping couples and families identifying and working towards resolving challenges to their communication and care for each other.

Throughout life we have various events that impact our emotions. At times things may trigger our anxiety or depression, withdrawing from things we once loved, or highlight your concerns about how you are coping with stress. Together we can work to develop a plan to manage our emotions while also moving forward.

I believe resiliency, bravery, and creativity is within every person; and that internal restructuring leads to external rebirth.

Life is complex and often overwhelming. The decision to seek counseling is a courageous step! I believe this courage stems from a desire and readiness to find more meaning in your life.
