Seeking mental health treatment for yourself or your child can be an emotional and scary decision. Between finding the right provider who will listen to you, identifying what you want help with and then defining these goals, it can be overwhelming. My job is to make it as easy as possible through telehealth services that can be provided where you feel the most comfortable: your home. I look to help each of my clients cope with everyday life and hardships, identify any concerns that may be preventing or delaying your individual growth and help you work towards your goals.

My ideal client is an individual who is willing to work. I have a passion for helping clients learn more about who they are and how to fully accept both the good and the bad with in them. This understanding of who we are, will always lead to a healthier state of mind. For me there is no greater reward then seeing a client reach that AH-HA moment that true inner growth and self-awareness connects.

I believe we all have the capacity to learn and grow as individuals. I also believe it can be hard to heal our deepest wounds without support from others. I strive to cultivate a nonjudgmental, supportive space where clients feel safe to work on sensitive issues. One goal of therapy is often to improve your ability to deal with whatever problem is immediately in front of you. Another goal is to raise awareness of patterns in our daily lives where we get stuck. We'll work together to find a way forward.

We often find ourselves seeking out treatment following a loss; loss of love, loss of identity, loss of independence, a loss of something, anything that mattered. Loss is a time when our life path gets altered and we need to set a new course for ourselves. I've been there and have experienced the initial and ongoing pain and confusion of not understanding the loss, but I've learned there's always a reason and it leaves us stronger and wiser than before.

I believe that the more you put into therapy, the more you get out of it. Therapy is not solely a place to vent, but an avenue to strategize real behavioral changes to improve your life and relationships. By making a conscious effort to implement those changes outside of the therapy office and taking responsibility for yourself, you are most likely to benefit from treatment. I am a masters-level, Connecticut-licensed clinician with over 20 years of experience in outpatient and residential treatment. I am a Clinical Member of the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy (AAMFT) and a clinical supervisor.

I have been in private practice for over 35 years and believe that people can truly change their lives. People can take very difficult experiences in their lives and use them to develop a more meaningful life. I draw from my own experiences while I work with my clients and believe that change can happen at any age. People can use grief, loss, trauma and life's most difficult experiences to develop meaning that they may never have had. Finding your own spirituality and your own style of coping is what makes it unique.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 16 years' experience working with adults, children and families. I have worked in many settings from behavioral health agencies, Childrens Hospitals IOP, and school settings providing both clinical and group counseling. I find that the most effective approach is one that is strengths-based with a strong emphasis on helping clients solve the problems that bring them to counseling and helping them develop powerful resiliency characteristics that allow for future problem-solving, conflict resolution, goal attainment, wellness, and life satisfaction.

Good therapy is an investment in yourself. Often times we find ourselves stretched too thin with too many responsibilities and not enough time. We become depressed, anxious, and unsatisfied with our lives. Past experiences and trauma tell us that we are not good enough, not worth the effort, and destined to fail. We are taught to put others first and sacrifice our own needs. We give until there is nothing left, we feel unfulfilled, and yet we keep trying the same old thing, hoping for different results. There is another way, a better way. I want to help you on your journey to becoming the best possible version of yourself.

I believe that a strong therapeutic relationship based on respect and understanding is essential to making positive change and helping individuals gain new insight, a healthier perspective or perhaps more meaning in their lives. In order for an individual to reach their full potential, it is important to uncover reasons they may be "stuck" in unhealthy relationships, addictions, poor self-image or other negative situations or behaviors. Cumulative experience has provided a deeper understanding of how dysfunctional patterns, low self esteem, mental illness and addiction can have an impact on the individual as well as those around them.
