Therapists in Bristol, CT

I work with people who feel overwhelmed with stress, anxiety, depression, attention deficit, outbursts of anger, thoughts about the past (regret, remorse, traumatic experiences), thoughts about the future (fear, anxiety, catastrophizing 'what if' scenarios), insomnia, lack of purpose, past relationship experiences impacting present relationships, self-sabotage, and general sense of meaninglessness. The work I do is collaborative and the results are real. As a person in personal recovery for over 24 years and a Iraq war infantry-combat veteran, I have lived experience maintaining sobriety while making strategic adjustments.

It takes a lot of courage and strength to enter therapy. I provide a safe, supportive, and positive environment where the sources of stress and life difficulties would be identified. Ways to work through and overcome life challenges would then be presented and focused on with the goal of improving one's life one step at a time.

Feeling overwhelmed? Looking for a therapist isn't easy. You may be reading profile after profile thinking all of these people sound the same or may have no idea what any of this means.
