Career Counseling Therapists in 06340

I have a broad range of counseling experience and have worked with many personal, behavioral, and cultural issues over my 20+ year counseling career. I utilize a holistic approach to help you create positive change within your life. We all encounter transitions in our lifetime (e.g., divorce, relationship issues, illness, death of loved ones, occupational conflicts, separation from employment, end of military service, empty nests, etc.), but it is often the way we respond to these challenges more than the actual challenges themselves that impacts our overall physical and emotional health and wellbeing.

I offer trauma focused treatment to individuals, groups and couples. I provide services to those suffering from substance abuse and grief and loss issues. I come with an empathic ear and a gracious appreciation for issues stemming from past events. I assist in uncovering core issues and work to reduce and manage symptoms that have interrupted a healthy life balance. I have been working with men, women and adolescents that have suffered from physical, emotional and sexual trauma, to include military combat stress and job challenges, as well as traumatic bereavement.

You might have noticed that your thoughts can spiral off on their own. As a result, you feel hopeless or depressed when thinking about certain situations. But, you are not alone in this. Our approach to counseling focuses on the underlying causes and through narrative process and learning coping strategies, reduce the impact of stressors on daily living.

Hello and welcome! My name is Simone and I am excited to start working with you. Before our first session, I want you to know my goal is to help you feel heard, and show you that therapy can be a very relaxing, judgement free zone where you can be unapologetically you. Building a trusting and safe relationship is important to me as I am a non-judgmental and honest person who truly does have a passion for working with people. It is my belief that you are the experts of your own stories, and I am only here to help you accept or tweak what is no longer serving you, or support you in no longer second guessing yourself

I believe that therapy is a collaborative process and I work with my clients to set personalized goals and develop a treatment plan that is tailored to your individual needs. I am a Masters level clinician licensed in both Connecticut and Florida, as well as a National Board Certified Counselor. I am the CEO and Lead Clinician of Omata LLC in business for the last 6 years.

Life can only be understood backwards, but it must be lived forward" -kierkegaard. Pursuing additional support is one of the first steps towards therapeutic healing and growth. Although everyone's journey is different, my commitment as a counselor is to help with self exploration, empowerment and ability to uncover the underlying answers within themselves. Sometimes the most important healing tool is having someone to confide in that is safe and non-judgmental; as a counselor my hope is that I can be that support who will work with you towards finding your solace.

Asking for help can be challenging. While that is very true it can also be life life changing. You deserve a safe space that is non-judgmental and supportive to process whatever it is life has thrown at you. A space where you can explore past and present traumas, explore new ways of dealing will triggers and skills to deal with daily life.

Long-term relationships take work and aren't always easy. If your relationship is struggling, or if you're thinking, "we need a tune-up," I'd love to help. I follow Gottman's research-based approach when working with couples. Do you feel like you and your significant other speak two different languages? A couple's biggest "goal" is often to improve communication and understanding. Other goals may include wanting to feel heard, decrease conflict, feel respected, gain the ability to accept influence from one another, be each other's best friend and teammate versus allies, and more.

This year has changed our lives forever. While still providing traditional coaching and therapy, I am now implementing a new approach. I am excited to share this new approach with clients. This new approach has clearly made a difference for myself and others.

Based on my 25 plus years of working as a clinical therapist, I believe that given the right support, everyone has the ability to resolve their issues and rewrite the stories of their lives. As each individual's path to wellness is unique, I utilize an integrative, holistic approach tailored to each specific client to optimize the therapeutic experience and ensure the best possible outcomes. Challenging life experiences can lead to people becoming stuck in negative, self-defeating patterns. I can assist you in determining the right course of action to take in order to achieve the clarity, self confidence and courage required to heal. Move forward and break free from unwanted behavioral patterns and limiting beliefs! I work with individuals, couples, and adolescents. I have developed an immense toolkit of therapeutic techniques over the years to share with my clients. I am steeped in Eastern as well as Western treatment modalities, and enjoy incorporating somatic, sound, and mindfulness healing techniques into my work in addition to the more traditional forms of cognitive and behavioral therapies.

Sometimes in life you get lost and need to stop to ask for directions. Therapy can be a great way to get your life back on track. I offer a safe, non-judgemental environment for you to figure out whats working in your life, whats not, and how to move forward. Improving your emotional health is key to overall happiness. I am passionate about helping people with their mental health so they can feel better about their lives. I work with teenagers and adults with anxiety, self esteem, mood disorders, trouble adjusting to life changes, and trauma.

I believe everyone has a story to tell and share how their experiences have shaped them into who they are today. My approach to treatment is empowering the people I work with to voice who they are and what their strengths and struggles may be. I like to use a strength based approach when working with individuals, families and groups while helping them develop their own treatment goals which are meaningful and real to them. I welcome the opportunity to work with you and allow you to share your journey and personalized goals for therapy.
