Hello! So glad that you've come to my profile. My ideal patient is readily looking to change. They've recognized that they want something different. They might be feeling unheard, unimportant, or lost. They may think poorly of themselves. They might even feel hopeless and like this is their last-ditch effort, but part of them still believes there is more. Part of them believes that they deserve something better and they are willing to fight for that better future they deserve. They are willing to stretch themselves, to be uncomfortable, and to do the hard work it takes to change, and I want to help them do so.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and have over 12 years of experience working with children, adolescents, and their families in a variety of settings. My experience focuses on developing pro-social behavior, adaptive coping skills, feeling identification, and stress as well as anger management techniques. Also, through my work with parents/caregivers, I offer insight on how to instill structure in the home by the use of incentive plans. While working with clients and their families, I take a collaborative approach that builds on strengths to work toward achieving goals and alleviating stress/strong negative emotions.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 16 years' experience working with adults, children and families. I have worked in many settings from behavioral health agencies, Childrens Hospitals IOP, and school settings providing both clinical and group counseling. I find that the most effective approach is one that is strengths-based with a strong emphasis on helping clients solve the problems that bring them to counseling and helping them develop powerful resiliency characteristics that allow for future problem-solving, conflict resolution, goal attainment, wellness, and life satisfaction.

Everyone has transitions and unexpected hardships in which they need knowledge, guidance, and support to overcome life difficulties. I provide unconditional acceptance in a friendly environment which allows you to make important life decisions. I offer methods that promote behavioral change (Motivational Enhancement Techniques, Cognitive Behavioral Therapies and DBT relaxation/mindfulness exercises) and reduce symptoms of trauma, grief, anger, anxiety, and depression. I counsel male and female adults of all ages as well as couples. My expertise includes mental health issues, addiction and dual diagnosis issues.

I believe that the more you put into therapy, the more you get out of it. Therapy is not solely a place to vent, but an avenue to strategize real behavioral changes to improve your life and relationships. By making a conscious effort to implement those changes outside of the therapy office and taking responsibility for yourself, you are most likely to benefit from treatment. I am a masters-level, Connecticut-licensed clinician with over 20 years of experience in outpatient and residential treatment. I am a Clinical Member of the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy (AAMFT) and an Approved Clinical Supervisor.

Facing unexpected changes in your medical health such as aging conditions and oncology diagnosis can be life altering and stressful. They can often create feelings of anxiety, depression and may create negative impacts on relationships with those around you. Together, I will support you to gain perspective, learn coping skills and form a level of acceptance with the unknown to weather this period in your life.

Experiences in aging and caregiving vary. For many, the "golden" years(later middle-age through end of life)are a time full of welcomed change and reflection. Still, medical conditions, relationship changes, and new life circumstances are just a few of the many stressors leaving seniors and caregivers feeling overwhelmed. I have counseled seniors living with dementia, as well as depression and anxiety. I have coached caregivers who find themselves balancing work responsibilities with care needs of children and aging parents. Most of my clients have similar goals: to be happier,improve relationships,and find a better quality of life.

Seeking out help is a bold step. Together we can develop tools that can bring positive changes to your life.

I have extensive experience helping individuals who struggle to cope with depression, anxiety, life transitions, social or academic issues, chronic health/medical issues, dementia & Alzheimer's, ADHD, relationships and sport performance issues. I draw upon psychoanalytic, psychodynamic and humanistic strategies to identify and build deeper understanding of the sources of psychological distress to guide individuals through these issues to attain their best self. I utilize mindfulness-based and strength-based approaches in therapy to build self-confidence and empower individuals.

Our sessions begin with a conversation. What brings you here? What would you like to be different? What would your life look like if our work together is successful? With over 35 years of experience as a Licensed Clinical Psychologist we can quickly and jointly determine if we are a good fit. I work with adolescents and individual adults as well as couples experiencing relationship, intimacy and/or parenting issues. My expertise in psychodynamic, cognitive, and relational therapy provide a unique combination. Please see my website for more information: www.drcarrierosenfield.com

Are you searching to embrace all of you? Do you want to embrace your new? Have you experienced a traumatic event or lost a loved one, divorce, job, incarcerated, pet etc.? Well if so, I am here to meet you where you are. Have you questioned yourself and your answer is why or what?

I am called to SERVE. I have worked as a clinician for almost two decades and have had the pleasure of working with clients of all genders, from all racial backgrounds with various ages and needs. I meet my clients where they are emotionally with the goal of getting them to where they want to be in life by working through life's challenges and roadblocks. The years of training I received as a clinician and supervisor at the Yale Child Study Center have influenced my attention to detail, assessment, and collaboration. I encourage you to take this amazing journey of self-discovery and healing from inside and out with me.

Starting therapy is a courageous endeavor. You may be feeling stuck in a rut, having trouble managing stress, or struggling with your relationship with food. I work with adults and adolescents with eating disorders, anxiety and depression. I am psychodynamically trained and integrate evidence-based modalities such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT). I utilize Enhanced Cognitive Behavior Therapy for Eating Disorders (CBT-E), and provide Family-Based Treatment (FBT / Maudsley) to adolescents with eating disorders.

I believe that the client – therapist relationship is the single most important factor for successful treatment. It is my goal to provide a safe space that is non-judgmental, attuned to your needs, engaging and genuinely empathetic. This allows for a trusting and collaborative partnership to explore your thoughts, feelings and patterns of interacting with others.
