Emotionally Focused Therapists in Wolcott, CT

Kindred Psychotherapy is a collaborative group of highly-skilled therapists with specialized training in a variety of presenting issues including depression, anxiety, grief, stage of life issues, trauma and family conflict. We know how powerful and necessary good therapy can be so we pride ourselves on providing compassionate, effective treatment to all of our clients. We all work with adults and elders through individual therapy and some of us also offer individual and joint sessions with children, adolescents, and couples.

I am an LMFT who works with individuals, couples, and families of all ages and needs. Reaching out for help can be difficult and I applaud anyone who takes that big step! In our first session together, we will talk about what brings you to therapy and come up with goals as a team. I enjoy using Internal Family Systems (IFS) as a treatment as well as Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). Through laughter and hard work, my clients and I work together to become their best and healthiest selves.

If you have found your way to this page, it means our vibrations are aligning. Your Higher Self has guided you to find this healing space to receive the support and counsel you need on your human journey as a spiritual being. I am a trauma-informed licensed clinician, with trainings in Internal Family System, EMDR, EFT, Reiki and meditative practices. I believe in importance of attuning to all of the aspects of human being to re-connect, re-parent, bring awareness and fully heal. If you resonate with this eclectic approach, together we will explore ways to let go of your unsupportive feelings, thoughts, patterns, or relationships.

Hello! I provide individual therapy to adults struggling with anxiety, depression, women’s issues (perinatal, postpartum, weaning difficulties, transition to motherhood, infertility), trauma, life transitions and relational issues. Whether you’re brand new to therapy and feel intimidated about starting or whether you’ve seen a therapist in the past, I hope to offer an environment where you feel comfortable being curious about yourself and better understanding how your past experiences/memories impact your relationships and worldview today.

Would you like to improve your relationships? Your job? Or other life situations? I strive to help clients experience immediate relief from problems by shifting perspective and working on the development of new skills. Anxiety and depression are often the result of past trauma and EMDR therapy offers rapid and significant relief. Life transitions like a new relationship, loss, marriage, divorce or job change can be challenging and may require outside help. I provide an unconditionally accepting environment to help you explore solutions that lead to meaningful, long-term results.

I view therapy as a way for one to get to know oneself better through knowing and understanding your conscious and unconscious drives, defenses and longings. I believe that when we know ourselves better we can be more in control of life's journey and have a better grip on the internal and often subconscious obstacles that get in the way of one's fulfillment.

My area of focus is sexuality and relationships. I primarily work with lgbtqia+ folks, and individuals who seek work around family dysfunction and attachment wounds. I love working with clients who are searching to find comfort in their own identity and future. My passion is driven by helping people who have yet to find their voice, and those who are searching for healthier relationships. I love helping individuals to find their sense of self worth, improve their boundaries, and feel fulfilled in their every day lives. I am gender affirming, and an ally to marginalized populations everywhere.

We are experiencing shifts in the world right now, and that can bring up many questions along with anxiety that feels out of control and can cause strain on our lives and relationships. As a trained Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) therapist, I am passionate about working with couples to establish ways to deepen their bond and strengthen the connection they long for. As an Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing-trained therapist, I use EMDR to help clients who have experienced trauma to find long-lasting healing through restructuring negative beliefs into healthy, positive emotional freedom.

I am passionate about building strong connections and repairing damaged relationships. My role as a therapist is to walk with you on your journey, listen, help explore your feelings and help you identify solutions and strategies to life challenges. I offer a non-judgmental and empathetic environment that advocates growth and healing. I believe a therapeutic environment should be authentic, emotionally safe, and at the same time challenging with a balance between hard work and fun.

Sometimes our experiences, losses, or thought patterns can make it feel impossible to imagine life getting easier. In times of distress, it is difficult to find people to help you through certain challenges, whether they be in your inner circle, or by yourself. By asking for help today, you've already taken the first major step! I strive to be a resource and an outlet for you, who will meet you exactly where you are at. Together we will cultivate a safe space to process your struggles and help you to achieve your goals. I will listen, provide support, empathize, and validate you, where you feel nobody else can.

Putting yourself first can truly feel impossible. Many of us have responsibilities to work, family or relationships that can easily be prioritized over our own wellbeing and happiness. It's easy to feel overwhelmed or stuck, especially when you don't know how to help yourself. Trying to manage symptoms of anxiety, depression, alcohol/drug use or other mental health concerns can make the process even more challenging. I'm here to help explore solutions so that you can live a more fulfilling life.
