Person-Centered Therapists in 06102

Are you weighed down by worries, regrets, traumas, hurt, or pain? Everyone has a story and should have the opportunity to tell it in a non-judgmental environment. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), and my areas of expertise include young through older adults with trauma, depression, anxiety, and substance use/co-occurring disorders. As an eclectic, person-centered therapist I believe in tailoring treatment to each client’s needs, so I do not use one modality across the board. I’ve always been highly empathic and view issues in a destigmatizing way: I don’t ask what is wrong with you, but what happened to you?

I believe in creating an open, safe, non-judgmental and compassionate therapeutic environment in order to help you make the changes necessary to build the life you desire. I also believe in an equally kind and direct stylistic approach, coupled with a strong emphasis on collaboration. In order to work together, I will provide you with the tools you need to move forward in life.

I am a licensed clinician is the state of Connecticut with over 16 years of experience in the mental health field working with youth diagnosed with severe and persistent mental illness, teenagers, individuals, and families. I graduated with a masters degree from the University of Connecticut School of Social Work. I am currently the director of a foster care program in my state or residence, and run my own practice. In addition, I have experience as a clinical supervisor and clinician in the mental health field. I believe in meeting you were you are at. You are the expert of your life and will take the lead in your transformation.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist my goal is to provide a safe, non judgmental environment to work through any problems you may be facing. I received my Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy from Hofstra University after completing a graduate degree in Psychology in Education from Teachers College, Columbia University. I’m trained in therapy modalities for individuals, couples, and families. I have specialty areas in anger management, chronic and/or terminal illnesses, as well as grief.

Do the logistics of getting the therapy appointments stop you from prioritizing your mental health? Picture a life where therapy seamlessly unfolds within the walls of your own home, eliminating the hurdles of travel, scheduling, and the pixelated void of online sessions. For busy professionals or parents caught in the whirlwind of modern life, especially moms juggling childcare, F.I.T.H. is the answer. No longer is accessing mental health services a logistical puzzle; instead, it's a commitment to prioritize your well-being in a way that is distinctly yours.

Are you feeling hopeless, discouraged, or misunderstood? Are you struggling to overcome past trauma, anxieties, setting goals, and being your authentic self? I am not here to judge you but to walk with you through your process of healing. Too often we struggle in silence and taking the initiative to reach out for help is no easy task. However, it demonstrates you have a strong desire to improve your quality of life.

You want to feel understood and empowered, but finding a therapist who helps you build on your strengths can seem difficult. Sometimes, it's hard to identify your strengths when you struggle with mental health. You want to manage your mental health and build the life you envision, but it feels impossible. If you're a teenager or young adult navigating the complexities of mental illness, our experts at SMPsychotherapy and Counseling Services are here to guide you through your journey to mental well-being.

Are you struggling to cope with trauma and other stressors in your life? Now is the time to get on the path to emotional stability and wellness.

I understand that life can be a difficult and trying journey. By receiving the appropriate help and skilled guidance we are better able to weather life's difficulties and gain understanding into our situations. This in turn will allow us to live better lives. My practice of psychotherapy is a broad brush which includes, but not limited to, trauma, addiction and gender issues. My work incorporates the use of EMDR, CBT, gestalt therapy, visualization and mindfulness training. As a psychotherapist, I am committed to my own growth. I feel this offers me continued insight not only within myself, but with my clients as well.

My focus is to help people heal, energize, and become aware of their inner strengths. This will be achieved by providing a neutral/safe space, by listening to your concerns, and by customizing a evidenced based treatment plan- for you. The promised goal is to be there for you every step of your journey. The goal is to help you grow from your struggles, heal from your pain, and move forward to where you want to be in your life.
