Sometimes in life we can get off track or even experience circumstances beyond our control that just throw us off our course. Finding direction and getting back on track can be difficult, just as difficult as finding a listening ear and someone we can trust and depend on. I'm here to say that it doesn't have to be, and I'm here to begin the journey with you wherever you are in that process.

*I am not currently accepting new clients* Hello! Are you looking to make positive changes in your life? I would be honored to share your journey and help you discover and develop strengths that will move you forward toward reaching your goals. Change is hard but is made easier with support and guidance. I offer you non-judgmental support in achieving the goals you wish to accomplish. I have experience working with a range of issues (anxiety, depression, substance abuse, relationships, trauma, grief and loss) and have a flexible approach based on individual needs. I draw from a variety of counseling theories and techniques.

Immediate openings available for virtual/telehealth appointments only. Welcome to Swift Running Waters Counseling. I serve students and residents of Eastern Connecticut using a strengths-based, client-centered approach. My mission is to assist you in identifying and using your natural strengths to promote resilience during your healing and recovery journey. During our time together, we will work to build solutions for what your going through. I will encourage you to look at your concerns about the future, the patterns of your past, and will guide you in the practice of being more present.

After almost 30 years in mental health, I'm still passionate about the work I do. With that said, I'm here to help with the problems that have brought you to therapy. Gathering information and developing our relationship, along with trust and creating a safe space to share are my strengths in helping others. I use various approaches to assist clients. Along with this, I enjoy educating about how we learn and form in an inter-generational family system and how we can transmit problems in that family system unconsciously. This can inform and empower growth and change.

When you’ve experienced painful life events or struggle with mental health challenges, starting the healing process is not an easy task. In fact it is often easier to avoid it or numb the pain, to continue the same patterns and to repeat past experiences (the past experiences you always hoped you wouldn't repeat). Somehow we find ourselves in a life story and we wonder how we got there. We will never be able to re-write our stories until we can actually be present with the painful life experiences that have led us to where we are in life. Therapy gives us the space to start this process.

Are you struggling with Anxiety, Depression, Anger, Relationship problems, Grief, Transition in Personal life or Career, Parenting Difficulties, Trauma, PTSD, existential crises, lack of self confidence? Are you looking for someone to help you make sense of your emotional struggles and find ways to heal and thrive in life? Are you experiencing spiritual turbulence and would like help in getting back your balance and orientation in this rapidly evolving spiritual shifts in consciousness on the planet today?

When we experience trauma it can effect all aspects of our lives, our psychological, emotional and physical well-being can all be compromised. Trauma related issues include: physical pain, anxiety, depression, sleep disturbance, anger, substance abuse, procrastination and avoidance behaviors. These issues can be present even if the trauma occurred in our pre-verbal years. Talk therapy alone even when paired with medication is often not enough to provide the true relief and healing we seek and deserve. This is why I incorporate Emotional Freedom Techniques into my practice.

I currently have Friday telehealth sessions at this time. I want to congratulate you on being curious on what is out there. We all know that at times life can be hard, at times overwhelming and uncertain of what to do. Having a person to talk to can be a weight off your shoulders and there’s help available. Everyone deserves to feel better.
