Welcome! I am open and affirming to all adults. My office is physically challenged accessible, as I believe all should have equal opportunities. I practice Holistic Psychotherapy, helping you connect your past events to your present day behaviors, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, helping you turn your negative thoughts into positive ones, and Acceptance Commitment Therapy, which helps you accept the present moment for what it is. Talk Therapy is also important to purge our feelings in a safe space, while learning strategies. I also offer Spiritual counseling for those struggling in the awakening process.

The adolescent and young adult stage should be some of the most exciting years of our lives although due to the pressures from peer groups, getting good grades, planning for college and career, this period of life can become very overwhelming and often extremely difficult. I am a licensed clinical social worker based in Wethersfield, Connecticut who has 10+ years experience working with teens and young adults who are struggling with all aspects of life. My areas of focus include peer/parental relationships, self esteem issues, life transitions, life skills, career counseling, anxiety and depression.

Currently not accepting new clients. Leigh-Ann specializes in treating adults ages 17+ who are seeking treatment for addiction, trauma, depression, anxiety, and other life challenges. She is well known as the "easy to talk to" therapist.

I became a psychotherapist to help support others through life's challenges. From relationships to family to career, life can be a roller coaster of events. I believe that creating some space in your life, even just one hour a week, can be very beneficial to your health and overall well being. As the saying goes when flying on an airplane, "...make sure to put the oxygen mask on yourself first before attempting to help others around you." This is crucial. If you are not well, how can you help take care of those around you?

Have you wondered if your child would benefit from video therapy? I offer a complimentary consultation to discuss any questions you may have. As a senior therapist at Zackson Psychology Group, I enjoy working with children and adolescents that may be struggling with adjustment to home school, anxiety, depression, ADHD, behavioral or family issues. You can talk to me about anything. I am accessible to parents and easy to talk to. I focus on your child, recognize their strengths, and develop tools to become their own therapist by learning how to deal with challenges. Clients often feel better early on in treatment.

Our mental health is essential to care for when family, careers, physical health, money, or livelihood are at stake. We often look at others and think "I want what they have". We see what we want to see. Doing this quite often takes a lot of energy and can leave you feeling anxious, depressed, and angry. I am a therapist because I firmly believe that every person should have one place they can go to not be judged and feel confident that the person in the therapist chair is going to help them see future hope and options.

Great things are not done by impulse, but by a series of small things brought together. Health, Happiness, and Success depend upon the fighting spirit of each person. The big thing is not what happens to us in life - but what we do about what happens to us. Professional counseling is a professional relationship that empowers diverse individuals, families, and groups to accomplish mental health, wellness, education, and career goals. In my practice, I work with individuals at all stages on strategies to overcome obstacles and personal challenges that they are facing.

You are not alone. Whatever issue you are facing, I believe we can become partners on a journey towards meeting your personal goals.

I am looking to treat adults, race, religious beliefs and ethnicities from all walks of life. There is no ideal client per say. I seek to work with individuals who are struggling with a mental health disorder and are looking to get a handle on their daily life and mental health.

I have been trained in, and enjoy practicing, body centered psychotherapy. This modality focuses on obtaining a deep understanding of the human person and offers the possibility of a more profound transformation than is commonly expected when engaging in popular methods of therapy. A central goal of body centered psychotherapy is creating the required safety and support to allow a person's own spirit to guide a healing process which addresses issues that hinder the experience of peace and joy that is the birthright of every human person.
