Marriage Counseling Therapists in Farmington, CT

Are you seeking to live more authentically? Just by being here, is the first step to making this change within your life. I would be happy to be the clinician to join you on that journey. I might be a Marriage and Family therapist, who believes in the power of systemic thinking, but you are the expert on your life. Together we can combine our strengths to best support you reach your goals.

Hello! My name is Yma Orne Campbell and I love the work that I do. I believe that Mental Health is extremely important! I listen attentively to my clients and use a variety of techniques to assist them with achieving their goals. My experience includes working within the child welfare system, facilitating parent education classes, motivational speaking, and providing psychotherapy and education to individuals challenged with substance abuse. I work with children, adolescents, couples, families, groups, and the elderly. As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I utilize my experience to guide others to finding their peace.

Finding the right therapist is the first step in getting to the place you want to be. Whether for personal growth, a relationship or family issue, healing from loss or past trauma, the relationship developed with your therapist is an important part of this process. My approach to working with people is to provide a comfortable space to collaborate towards reaching your goals. Together we will lay the groundwork necessary to develop solutions to meet your needs.

As a marriage and family therapist, I am uniquely trained to identify, track and break patterns between couples & families in conflict. I work toward helping individuals,couples and families take an active role in creating the kind of change they desire. Marriages are not meant to merely SURVIVE, but rather to THRIVE. In couples counseling I help parties develop greater insight into their relationship and maintain a mindfulness toward its growth. Through focusing on action steps, I actively challenge individuals and couples to take accountability for their own thoughts and behavior as opposed to assessing their partner's.

With 25 years experience, I am a licensed in Marriage and Family therapy providing marital therapy, and individual therapy for adults, teens and children in West Hartford. We all need help sometimes making the changes that will improve the relationships, feelings and thoughts that keep us stuck. More and more people are turning to the Systemic (Family) therapy approach, because they are tired of treating only the symptom with medication or other methods and are ready to make the changes that not only heal the symptom (i.e. depression, anxiety, etc.) but help them begin to have the relationships and life they want.

Life can be challenging. As a clinical psychologist with 35 years of experience I can help with anxiety, addictions, depression, marital relationships, sexual issues, & trauma. I can help alleviate psychiatric symptoms and addictions utilized cutting-edge and evidence-based treatments and I'll help you will identify/heal emotional pain with the goal of living a healthier and more fulfilling life. I am former Assistant Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at UConn School of Medicine and a specialist in addiction medicine, as well as Internet & video game addiction. Treatments are offered in-office and via telehealth video platforms.

Congratulations, you have taken the first step toward change by reaching out for help. Are you interested in continuing that process while taking a deeper look at your relationships with self and others? It is my hope to create a safe, therapeutic space so that you can grow and learn internally and externally through the use of my 13 years of experience in the field.

My focus is on helping you to lead your most fulfilling life as an individual, or as a couple; and to achieve deeply satisfying relationships, both physically and emotionally.

My work is a dynamic blend of all that has profoundly influenced me: the science of Family Systems, my 25 years study in Buddhist psychology and Non-Dual philosophy, and teaching Kundalini Yoga. My marriage of 25 years while mothering two teenagers has offered joy and insight into human nature. My passion is in helping my clients develop conscious partnerships, mindful parenting, heal from grief and live free of anxiety and depression. My work is a psychotherapeutic approach integrating neuroscience, trauma research, meditative practices and relational awareness for healing and happiness.

Are you struggling and looking to make positive changes in your life? You've braved the first (and often most difficult) step by reaching out to seek treatment! As a therapist, it is my goal to create a comfortable and collaborative treatment space right from the start. I work with people from a non-judgmental, humorous, empathetic, and authentic approach to help them reach whatever goals are the focus of their treatment.

Life is full of inevitable changes. If you are experiencing the anticipatory grief of losing a loved one, the loss of a beloved family member or friend, anxiety, low self-esteem, stress, or depression, I invite you to contact me to see if I am the right fit for you to meet your goals. I also work with clients who are seeking help for parenting issues, marriage counseling , and couple/relationship issues.

Whatever your issue -- Stress, anxiety, grief, or depression -- I'm here to help you.

I am committed to helping you live a more satisfying fulfilling and balanced life.

Do you feel constrained in a relationship where you struggle to be heard? Or feel ‘stuck’ in the same old patterns? Do you ever feel like you are not living the life that is authentically meant for you? Do you find yourself overwhelmed with anger, worry, fear, or feelings of inadequacy or self-blame? Addressing these questions and concerns in a therapeutic context can open up room to repair relationships with oneself and with significant others. As a partner in facilitating change, I will work with you and/or your loved-ones to creatively and collaboratively discover new solutions that can help you move beyond emotional and relational stumbling blocks. Having worked in the field of mental- health for many years, I have shared in helping many clients find their way through to wellness from places of high-risk, grief/loss, trauma and conflict in their families. Drawing from a variety of therapeutic modalities, I work with adults, teens, couples and parents/families to help develop and utilize new coping skills that are rooted in your yet- discovered strengths. I am here to listen. Change is possible.

"You are doing the very best you can!" We enter adulthood with a lifetime of experiences-both positive and negative. Is today feeling like a replay of past trauma, relationships struggling, parenting making you feel like a failure, while the voice in your head says, "I am not enough?" My practice is based on the beliefs, “it is never too late” and “we each have infinite worth.” The quality of our early relationship with our caregivers, repeats without our awareness. Our past need not define our present. You are worthy of finding comfort within a secure, therapeutic relationship. Together we can explore and discover healing.

I've been practicing as a psychotherapist for over 30 years. I have been clinical director of mental health facilities and on the faculty of Tufts University School of Medicine. I welcome clients 14 years of age and older -- individuals and couples, and offer you a warm personal approach focusing on your specific needs. I don't believe in a "one size fits all" model of practice or that therapy should be "a way of life." Therapy begins with a careful assessment and plan. If what we are doing isn't working for you, we change it.

I AM accepting new clients. I am incredibly proud of you for taking the step to find a therapist. Finding the “right fit,” is imperative and I’d like to share a bit about my style so you can decide what is best for you. I view therapy as a collaborative process between two humans. I always offer ample respect, dignity and compassion to everyone I encounter. I am a strengths based clinician, which means I will focus on positives when helping you identify and overcome difficulties in your life. Life happens in ways we often cannot control, but I believe it’s all about how we respond that counts most.
