Welcome! If you’re reading this, I’d imagine that you’re searching not just for any therapist, but one that will be the best fit for you. It takes courage to reach out and although it can seem scary and uncertain, it also provides hope that things can get better. If you’re looking for support and guidance, let’s talk. I provide a 15-minute complimentary phone consultation to learn more about one another. As the owner of CT Affirmative Therapy, I have experience with a diverse client base and am passionately committed to working with those in the LGBTQ+ community on issues related to gender and sexuality.

I specialize in helping people navigate and manage a variety of life stressors and health conditions, such as chronic pain, cancer, autoimmune diseases, insomnia/sleep concerns, women’s sexual concerns, and the distress, depression, and anxiety that can often accompany these conditions. I'm here to help you find clarity, health, and well-being.

Are you facing a major life transition or grappling with overwhelming stressors? Life can throw unexpected challenges our way, leaving us feeling lost, anxious, or overwhelmed. I’m here to help you navigate the unknowns and discover your inner resilience. My history with Yale New Haven Hospital has provided extensive clinical experience and training working with individuals facing mental health challenges, chronic illness, pregnancy and postpartum care. I also have school-based counseling experience. I have worked with people experiencing stress, burnout, anxiety and depression around life changes, relationships and trauma.

I'm Tasha Chimbila, an LMSW at Sankofa Counseling. We believe that a strength-based, person-centered foundation combined with unconditional positive regard is essential to change and healing.

Our life stories include a tapestry of ups and downs, and navigating the downturns can be daunting. These unpleasant and sometimes emotionally unsettling life experiences can knock us off balance, leaving us out of sorts. They sometimes lead to feelings and bouts of anxiety and depression. They even challenge our sense of self-worth and can be isolating. Nina endorses not going it alone when navigating the downturns of anxiety and depression.

Parents, I am here for you! You thought it would get easier when you didn't have a baby waking you all night...but now that your child or teenager is older, the real stress has begun. You want so badly to create a stronger bond with your kids than you had with your own parents, but there is so much contradicting advice out there and your child is presenting you with emotional challenges you hadn't anticipated. Perhaps your child's anxiety, mood or behaviour is having a huge impact on family life, or maybe you and your partner don't have the same parenting approach. Please send me an email to find out how I can help!

I believe people can grow as they deal with challenges thoughout one's life. My therapeutic style developed over 30 years of experience is integrative and flexible. I work collaboratively with clients to explore and understand the presenting issues and identify areas of focus

Hi, I’m Samantha Parsons, a Licensed Master Social Worker. I empower individuals to navigate their life’s challenges, heal trauma, and achieve emotional wellness.

When I lost my only sister to addiction at the age of 21, helping people like her became my ultimate professional goal. It’s my top priority to meet patients where they’re at and to help them improve their quality of life.

*I am temporarily unable to accept new patients. You may be experiencing anxiety, depression, a relationship or personal crisis, or lack of direction in your life. And, you are looking for help to creatively tackle your goals, built loving relationships, manage life's pressures, and reach your full potential. As a warm and interested psychologist, I work in partnership with my patients to understand these problems and to build on their inherent strengths in a process of healing and growth.

Therapy is not about fixing you as if you're broken. To me, it's about recovering from suffering, and connecting deeply and authentically to your thoughts, feelings, desires and dreams. It can be difficult to begin a new therapy relationship and be vulnerable, especially when relationships have been harmful in the past. I think taking the risk anyway reflects an inherent pull toward repairing the old wounds that restrict our capacity to live freely and joyfully. I love working with LGBTQIA folks, relationships, trauma, and difficulties with shame, self-love and acceptance.

As a compassionate and experienced psychotherapist, my mission is to empower my clients to overcome complex challenges and achieve lasting personal growth. With a Master of Social Work degree and specialized training in evidence-based therapies like Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), I bring a robust clinical skillset to my practice.

It may be challenging to make changes on your own without support and encouragement. I am committed to guiding clients toward achieving their optimal wellness potential. Together we will explore obstacles that may be holding you back from personal growth, and collaborate on a plan to address your unique needs. I always remind clients that we are in this process together. Just beginning is exciting and hopeful!
