Therapists Beginning With V in Connecticut

As a marriage and family therapist it is my honor to work with individuals and families to work through hardships and explore ways to not only survive life's trials but to thrive. Many people find themselves seeking therapy during a life transition. Transitions can be extremely challenging, whether it is a change in a relationship, employment, a move or a loss. Navigating a new normal can come with pain and uncertainty. Through our work together we will use a variety of techniques and interventions to explore solutions and assist you in developing skills to find joy again.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Registered Dance/Movement Therapist. I specialize in trauma-informed care for children (especially ages birth-6 years old) and adults. My background includes working with children and adults who have experienced various forms of trauma, such as abuse, neglect, loss, and disrupted attachments, as well as supporting children on the autism spectrum. Our outward behaviors and physical manifestations are representative of what we are feeling and thinking. In order to understand the whole person and effect change, I believe it is important to address the underlying reasons for behaviors.

Are you searching for relief and healing? I'm passionate about supporting adults through the use of a strengths based approach. Together, we will explore and identify the tools and resources necessary to rise above each challenge you are experiencing. We will work on mutually agreed upon goals, drawing on your personal resources of motivation and hope to create long lasting change. My therapeutic style includes a combination of cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, mindfulness, and creative arts exercises.

Your coping skills do not define you. You know this, but you can’t help judge yourself when you try to set limits, and you keep breaking your own rules. Life just keeps piling on, and even when you think you’ve made some progress, you find yourself slipping back into old behaviors and start to wonder if you’re ever going to get it together. You get so mad at yourself, and the whole mess seems impossible to fix. You’ve wondered how therapy can possibly help but you’re willing to maybe try. I’m glad you’re here.

Life sometimes presents us with challenges. Whether it is a transition or a major life event, the reality is that sometimes our ability to cope with the current challenges becomes compromised and we lose our balance. Maybe you are currently feeling worried, sad and hopeless. You are beginning to wonder “when will this feeling go away?” and “will I be able to become the person I was before this happened?” If this scenario sounds familiar to you, chances are that you are struggling with depression. Please know you are not alone, nor have to go through this alone.
