Husky | CT BHP Therapists in Milford, CT

As a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist my goal is to support individuals, couples and families navigate the uncertainties of life with compassion, confidence, humor and acceptance. My clinical experience includes working with a variety of challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, and stress.

As an individual counselor, I am here to provide one on one support and guidance to help you live a happier, healthier life. I have experience helping clients with a wide range of issues and am particularly passionate about addressing women's issues including returning to work postpartum, finding a balance between family, career, school, or personal time, work stress, self-esteem issues, and transitioning to different life stages. Self-care is so important to all of us and counseling is just one way you can begin to show some love to yourself.

Please note: I am currently not accepting new clients. I am dedicated to working with those who are experiencing social, emotional and behavioral difficulties that prevent them from feeling like the best version of themselves. I strive to create a connection where the client feels safe, respected and heard so we may work together in achieving therapy goals.

Hi! I'm Joy, an LCSW licensed in CT, MD, and NY. (Not accepting clients at this time). My private practice serves adults who identify as Black, People of Color, and African immigrants. These individuals have endured multiple stressors and trauma; and wonder if therapy is right for them or can help them get better. If this is you and you are a resident of these three states, we may be a good fit. I am a trauma therapist and will engage with you to dismantle your childhood and past. With this insight, we will begin to heal and then recreate an adaptive present and hopeful future.

Not Accepting New Clients at this time. Life's journey often presents us with twists and turns, and at times, the challenges can feel overwhelming. We want to extend a warm invitation to you and your loved ones to embark on a journey of healing and growth together. At Breakers Counseling, we understand that mental and behavioral well-being is at the heart of living a fulfilling life. Our practice is dedicated to providing compassionate care for individuals aged 6 and above, with a focus on treating a wide range of specialties, we offer a safe haven for those seeking solace and transformation.

I believe that my clients are the experts on their lives. With that philosophy, I work collaboratively with my clients to work toward their goals & help realize their full potential. My clients are insightful, motivated to make positive change, & interested in learning more about their own emotional & relational patterns to enhance their self-awareness & break unhealthy cycles. My clinical style is generally Cognitive-Behavioral (CBT) & psychodynamic/insight-oriented; however, I adjust my style to fit my clients, integrating other styles such as mindfulness, strengths-based & motivational interviewing as appropriate.

With 8+ years experience in the field, I specialize in children & families, couples counseling, anxiety, depression, ADHD, as well as addiction. I utilize an empathetic, humanistic approach with evidenced-based interventions. I can describe my approach to therapy as one that is collaborative, eclectic, and individualized to the needs of my patients. I believe that the therapeutic alliance accounts for a large percentage of positive clinical outcomes, and building a safe as well as trusting relationship with my patients is a primary aim of my work.

Not currently accepting new clients. Do you struggle with overthinking, low self-esteem, feelings of doubt, guilt, or shame? If so, I can help! It is my goal to create a safe and trusting environment to address an individual's overall wellbeing while focusing on the connections between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. I believe that people are the experts of their lives, and my role is to help facilitate the changes individuals want to make. I enjoy using humor and celebrating the little wins within sessions. Together we will find solutions to live a happier and healthier life.
