Therapists in East Lyme, CT

No matter what you are suffering from or want to improve, there are ways to get your brain to function better and give you the life you deserve.

You may be struggling with the overwhelm and overstimulation in the world today impacting your individual relationships and self-regulation. My goal is to work collaboratively through personal/relational issues towards your own growth and work/life balance. Having Substance use and Psychoeducational Rehabilitation, Child Protection Services, Mitigation Services, Judicial Criminal and Family Court, School Social Work and Individual Counseling experience since 1996, I am familiar with the wide range of circumstances we face in life.

Do you suffer from depression, bipolar, anxiety, chronic stress, or other problem(s) that may be holding you back from reaching your potential? Do you wish you were more productive, healthier, and happier? Are there days when you just can't get out of bed or feel like the world is working against you - or perhaps you feel you are working against yourself? Do you often wish you could wake up and feel more positive about the day ahead instead of feeling anxious, insecure, frightened or hopeless? Do you need someone to hold you accountable, motivate you, and teach and offer you skills to overcome these struggles?

Has life become more about routine, or survival instead of living out the dreams you once had? Or perhaps you are living in fear of the future? My goal is to bring out the best version of you, and as a result, help you feel amazing. During our sessions, we will work together to get to the root of the issue. We will also work on improving your current state of mind. This process will make you excited about the future and provide you with a more positive outlook on life. I offer individual therapy for anxiety, depression, ADHD and relationship struggles.

***Evening appointments available*** We all experience times in our lives when we need someone to talk to, someone to listen, someone to help us see things from a different perspective. Whether it’s times of sadness, feeling overwhelmed, or simply finding ourselves at a crossroads, these situations can leave us feeling uncertain about how to move forward successfully in life. For more than fifteen years, I have been helping people to change their lives by increasing their understanding of themselves and the people around them.

Currently taking clients for >diagnostic evaluations<, couples, & >group therapy<. I am a caring, evidence-based, and holistic (consideration of the whole) therapist looking forward to challenging cases from people needing my expertise. Making use of a wide variety of therapies, from verbal to non-verbal, devoting much time on each of the select cases I take, and engaging in colleague consultations, I am often able to help with even the most challenging of issues. I also see children, doing family therapy even for the toughest kids. You'll see the difference family support makes, rather than my just trying to "fix the kid".

There are unexpected life events for human beings that can cause sudden stress, trauma, and challenges in their daily life.

A change in course cannot occur without action and calling in for support is the first step and sometimes the hardest step.
