Therapists Beginning With K in Connecticut
My therapy style is grounded in mindfulness and positive psychology, focusing on empowering clients to build a stronger sense of self. I help clients reframe negative thoughts, develop coping techniques, and use tailored homework assignments to foster growth and a healthier sense of identity. I often tell clients they’re like a puzzle with all the pieces they need—I’m simply here to help them put those pieces together. Through this process, I guide clients to recognize their strengths, stay present, and find value in themselves as they work toward personal growth and fulfillment.

Feeling stressed is an inevitable human experience. My objective as a therapist is to help you identify your stressors, explore them, and learn ways to manage and cope with them more effectively. Whether you are struggling with the loss of a loved one, dealing with life transitions (moving, loss of job), having relationship issues (whether with family, significant other, friend, or colleague), feeling overburdened, or wanting to make a lifestyle change (substance abuse, eating disorder, adapting a healthier lifestyle), my goal is to provide you with a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space to gain greater insight into yourself in order to promote personal growth.

Before becoming a therapist, I spent many years in marketing, where I noticed the struggle to access quality mental health care. This gap inspired me to switch careers and help close it. My interests also include the mental health impacts of COVID and chronic illness. I’m actively involved in research in these areas and love seeing people build confidence and feel better. Specialized care for OCD is often hard to find, I'm excited to work with NOCD to provide this need. At NOCD, my team and I focus on evidence-based treatment for OCD, supported by our intensive training in ERP—the gold standard for OCD treatment.

At times life can be unusually painful, scary and confusing. Generally speaking, we may feel anxious, sad, discouraged and alone, and not know what to do. When someone listens to us carefully and in a compassionate, respectful way, we learn how to listen in such a way to ourselves, to our own inner life. Talking things out with someone in this special way can help us become clearer about who we are, our strengths and also our self-defeating ways, so we can move forward with an improved sense of self and direction.

Anxiety, depression, self-criticism, perfectionism, codependency, trauma and other mental health challenges can restrict us from reaching our goals, having meaningful relationships and fully living. These challenges are also accompanied with symptoms that can be problematic, difficult to manage, painful and even debilitating. Yet personal development, whether practiced independently or in the therapeutic setting, can feel daunting and unproductive. People are often at a loss on how to improve their lives. This can lead to dissatisfaction, frustration and despair. This is where I can offer you a different experience.
