Parenting Therapists in Woodbury, CT
I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and DBT techniques to support the process of positive change, and I am certified in both The Circle of Security and Triple P parenting interventions, which address attachment and bonding and discipline.
My approach to counseling is to create a safe space for people to discuss their challenges and move toward a brighter future. I practice from the perspective of recognizing each person’s individual strengths and unique gifts as I assist them with processing feelings and recognizing thought patterns which may be hindering their ability to live their best life.

I have extensive experience working with parenting and relationship issues and I am able to utilize both therapeutic techniques, such as Cognitive Behavioral or Motivational therapies as well as mediation interventions to achieve more peace within a client's relationship systems.
Relieving symptoms of depression, anxiety, or other concerns is a primary focus of treatment. I strive to educate clients on these symptoms and work with them to minimize their effect on their lives, relationships and ability to reach goals. I'm able to evaluate a client's relationship with drugs and alcohol and uncover if their use of substances contributes to stress in their life and relationships. I find that an individualized plan is ideal and this may involve individual, group, family/couples care or a combination of options. I have 20+ years in practice and can offer that experience to you and your family.

My "ideal" client is an individual, couple or family who needs changes in their lives. Anyone with signs of distress, anxiety, anger issues or substance abuse may benefit from psychotherapy. Major life events which bring about change in a person's life are reasons people seek therapy. You do not need to be married to see a marriage and family therapist. I treat anyone of any age or sexual orientation who is motivated to make meaningful changes in their lives.

I bring to our therapeutic relationship over 25 years of experience working with children, teens, adults and families. As a therapist I am deeply invested in my clients’ unique stories. It is my goal to help them develop insight into the ways that their past and present intersect with their neurobiology while also uncovering the narrative they developed as a way to make sense of their experiences. This takes us to a space of understanding and connection which is often where change happens.

My approach to therapy balances down-to-earth, human connection and clinical expertise. My clients have often learned to rely on shutting down, emotional unavailability in relationships, rebelliousness, substance abuse, distraction, over-achieving, adrenaline seeking, perfectionism, anger, fierce independence, or any manner of escape to get them through life. I focus on empowering my clients to approach emotional experiences and to face their reality with clarity. My goal is to help my clients see their own roadmap to success in their relationships, family dynamics, career goals, health or purpose.

Parenting Therapists
What does therapy for parenting look like?
Therapists may work with parents individually, together, or include the whole family to find solutions for the problems a parent faces. Many parent-based therapies work on a parent’s relationship with their children, problem-solving within the family, and analysis of family dynamics. Therapy conducted remotely by video may be helpful in allowing a therapist to observe how families interact in their own homes.
When should a parent seek therapy?
When behavioral problems begin to disrupt the healthy functioning of a family, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If parents find that children are acting out in school, have started using drugs or alcohol, have developed eating disorders, or other similar red flags, a therapist may be able to help.
How long does therapy take for parenting problems?
Depending on the severity of a family’s challenges and the type of treatment utilized, therapy for parenting can last from weeks to months. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a pragmatic therapy type that can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. Structural family therapy, which inspects family dynamics, often takes several months. Parent-child interaction therapy is typically shorter-term, lasting between 10 and 20 sessions. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.
Can therapy help parents dealing with burnout or stress?
Parenting is difficult. Parents may dismiss or conceal feelings of exhaustion, overwhelm, or escape ideation—imagining withdrawing from their parental obligations altogether. but left unattended, these feelings can have negative effects on the whole family. A therapist can help parents work on the skills they might need to better cope with the burdens of parenting and help them be the best parents they can be.
