Therapists in Farmington, CT

I specialize in working with women whose mental health symptoms impact day to day life, sense of self and relationships. Therapy offers a place where clients no longer have to navigate those hardships alone. I provide a compassionate and supportive environment to help clients in their journey of healing, growing and finding the resources within to overcome. We will work collaboratively in session to explore how my training and experience can support your individual healing journey. Therapy with me is informed by my experience of being both systemically trained and trauma informed.

Congratulations! You have already found the strength and taken the first step towards your goal by recognizing and acting on your need by looking for help. I would like to help you achieve the remaining steps to be successful. Being a specialist in CBT and mindfulness means that I am passionate about helping clients recognize and work on overcoming challenges they may face. I have supported my clients in both homecare and outpatient settings. I have experience also working with adults in a medical setting with chronic health issues along with supporting their caregivers, experience with grief and loss and conflict resolution.

**Please note that I am not accepting new patients at this time.** Relationships are central to the human experience. They shape our expectations about the world, our interactions, and others in our lives. At times, our experiences can leave us feeling dissatisfied, disconnected, and even disillusioned. I am a licensed clinical and health psychologist, working with adults seeking treatment for depression, anxiety, maternal mental illness, vicarious trauma, and those managing life transitions.

Feeling down, overwhelmed, anxious, or not like yourself? Are you feeling stuck and would you like to improve your relationship? Is your kid experiencing emotional, social, academic, or other issues? If so, I can help. I use short-term and research-based treatment with individuals, couples, and families. My therapy sessions help to heal painful issues, overcome presenting problems, and provide clients with insight and coping skills to handle all of life's obstacles.

Within my experience, whether it is individual or couples therapy I am confident to provide a superior level of care and treatment to a wide range of mental health issues. I strongly believe in treating each individual as a whole rather than focusing on specific diagnosis. When working with individuals and couples, the focus is geared towards establishing a positive dynamic along with healthy communication. I specialize in LGBTQ+, Anxiety, Trauma and Life transitions. I primarily use CBT and maintain a rational and humanistic approach towards treatment.

We help sensitive individuals find harmony with their emotions. We ensure that clients who would typically slip through the cracks in therapy are seen, supported and have the skills they need to create meaningful change in their lives. During individual DBT therapy sessions, the therapist pays close attention to your behaviors looking for motivational concerns, including personal and environmental factors that inhibit effective behaviors (the things you want to do more) and that elicit and reinforce maladaptive behaviors (the things you want to do less).

Do you feel constrained in a relationship where you struggle to be heard? Or feel ‘stuck’ in the same old patterns? Do you ever feel like you are not living the life that is authentically meant for you? Do you find yourself overwhelmed with anger, worry, fear, or feelings of inadequacy or self-blame? Addressing these questions and concerns in a therapeutic context can open up room to repair relationships with oneself and with significant others. As a partner in facilitating change, I will work with you and/or your loved-ones to creatively and collaboratively discover new solutions that can help you move beyond emotional and relational stumbling blocks. Having worked in the field of mental- health for many years, I have shared in helping many clients find their way through to wellness from places of high-risk, grief/loss, trauma and conflict in their families. Drawing from a variety of therapeutic modalities, I work with adults, teens, couples and parents/families to help develop and utilize new coping skills that are rooted in your yet- discovered strengths. I am here to listen. Change is possible.

Welcome! I have always aimed to see the good in others and have been genuinely fascinated by the way the human mind works: the way it can spiral out of control in not-so-helpful ways, for sure, but also the way it can persevere through nearly anything, protect us, and help us to create and share wonderful things. The practice of therapy is one that I not only enjoy, but honor and respect, and you will see that in working with me. I have been a licensed clinical social worker since 2013 and have practiced in various settings with many different populations.

More than ever, our society places high demands and expectations which can be overwhelming to our emotional mental health.

As a marriage and family therapist, I am uniquely trained to identify, track and break patterns between couples & families in conflict. I work toward helping individuals,couples and families take an active role in creating the kind of change they desire. Marriages are not meant to merely SURVIVE, but rather to THRIVE. In couples counseling I help parties develop greater insight into their relationship and maintain a mindfulness toward its growth. Through focusing on action steps, I actively challenge individuals and couples to take accountability for their own thoughts and behavior as opposed to assessing their partner's.
