Therapists in New Haven County, CT

Congratulations on taking the first step! I am an experienced professional hoping to assist you in whatever challenges you may be experiencing. I believe the first step in treatment should be accurate diagonsis. I have worked extensively with adolescents & adults in practice and strive to offer individualized services that fit my clients' needs. My primary focus is psychological testing and evaluation to help clarify diagnosis and make targeted recommendations for treatment.

Welcome to my profile! I am the proud and sole-owner of A.D.R.I.E.L Counseling, LLC and at my practice, you can expect the support in ares we all have in common: Adversity, Difficulty, Resilience, in Every Life. My name is Franzua Torres and I am a Bilingual, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, with fluency in English, and Spanish. I provide person-centered psychotherapy, both virtual and in- person. I received my Masters Degree in Social Work from Fordham University and I have over ten-years of experience providing therapeutic treatment in a variety of settings including; Inpatient, outpatient, In-home, and Private Practice.

Twenty-five years into it, I still love being a counselor and psychotherapist. It is an honor and a privilege to be involved in the personal struggle and transformation of each client, couple, and family I see. I regard therapy more as an art than a science, though I certainly utilize current research in my practice. Most often my clients present problems in living rather than "mental illness" per se and they appreciate my attention to their strengths, resources, and spiritual concerns.

*"Change can be scary, but you know what's scarier? Allowing fear to stop you from growing, evolving and progressing"* Mandy Hale. I am an experienced clinician that would like to help guide you on your journey for change and individual growth in a safe respected environment. I have been practicing as a clinician for 14 years with adolescents, families, couples, adults, and children. I have strengthened my skills in assisting individuals overcome anxiety, depression, behavioral concerns and family conflict. My training has been in crisis and trauma work as well as with families through the Functional Family Therapy model.

Therapy is an ongoing conversation that can be scary to get started. Just looking at therapist profiles means you’ve made the first step toward entering the conversation. Could I be the right fit for you? As a practitioner I create a safe space for all people and will meet you where you are at. My style is nonjudgmental, honest, expressive, direct, at times humorous, and always compassionate, even when I gently encourage the discovery of new realizations. You are whole and complete and have all the answers inside of you. Together we will find ways to access those answers by developing new skills and building on your strengths.

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 specialize in working with teens and adults who are struggling with anxiety, depression, and memories of upsetting experiences. As a queer, neurodiverse person of color, I recognize the impact discrimination and neurodiversity have on a person's life. My lived experience fuels my passion for working with folks with various identities and mental health issues. It can be difficult to imagine a life without struggling emotionally, but with the right support you can regain a sense of hope and inner peace.

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.
