Trauma and PTSD Therapists in Farmington, CT

Hello and welcome!! I am a licensed clinical social worker with a passion for helping people who want to better their lives. I have been in practice for over 10 years and use a trauma informed and gender responsive approach to treatment. Together we can explore areas of your life that you feel you value and would like to change for the better.

I am a clinical psychologist with expertise in treating addictions, eating disorders, trauma , anxiety, depression, body image issues and difficulties with emotion regulation. I teach skills that increase life satisfaction, happiness, self-confidence, curiosity and gratitude. When life doesn't meet our expectations or painful situations occur, many people become self-critical and fight against emotions such as anger, loneliness, fear or shame. It is this lack of acceptance that increases suffering. Mindfulness and self-compassion involve responding with kindness to our own pain, thereby reducing suffering.

Healing Hearts, Healing Lives is a practice specializing in adults, children and adolescents. I have always had a passion for the empowerment of children, adolescents, and adults as they overcome challenges in their lives. I enjoy helping individuals maintain their emotional well-being. I will work with you and your family to reduce emotional and behavioral symptoms. I'm genuine and very approachable and work hard to meet every client where they are developmentally and emotionally. In my psychotherapeutic practice, I employ cognitive Behavior Therapy, Play Therapy, Child Parent Psychotherapy, and Expressive Art Therapy strategies.

Healing Hearts, Healing Lives LLC is a practice that specializes in women, children and adolescents and is currently offering telehealth. I am very passionate about helping individuals work through life's challenges and I understand that in order to work through difficulty, there must be trust and emotional safety. I provide a safe space in which we can work together to begin to understand the unhealthy patterns of thought and behavior that have you feeling overwhelmed and stuck.

I specialize in working with women whose mental health symptoms impact day to day life, sense of self and relationships. Therapy offers a place where clients no longer have to navigate those hardships alone. I provide a compassionate and supportive environment to help clients in their journey of healing, growing and finding the resources within to overcome. We will work collaboratively in session to explore how my training and experience can support your individual healing journey. Therapy with me is informed by my experience of being both systemically trained and trauma informed.

When you finding yourself stuck, it can be challenging to see all the possibilities we have in our lives. And its all the more difficult if you've experienced trauma or wounding in attachment. Whether you’re experiencing difficulties in your relationships, parenting, excessive stress, or regulating emotions, we can work together to find greater balance and healing. I have a special focus working with PTSD , trauma , anxiety, and depression. I believe that we are happiest and most fulfilled when we are living in line with our beliefs, are able to manage conflict and stressors, and feel connected to the people we care about.

"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.

Accepting Clients For Daytime Only I offer a non-judgmental environment in order to develop a safe place for us to work together to decide which specific changes you would like to make in your life. My approach is a supportive process focused on helping you heal at your own pace and guide you to learn more constructive ways to deal with the problems or issues within your life.

Your life experiences are powerful and, at times, they can also be painful. We will work together to better understand how past experiences may be impacting the present, how current stressors might be affecting you, and what might be helpful for a brighter future. As a Clinical Psychologist, I specialize in working with clients of all ages experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma , grief, and other mental health difficulties. I also work with people experiencing life transitions, relationship difficulties, parenting stress, chronic health conditions, and individuals wanting to achieve a healthier lifestyle.

My work as a psychotherapist is rooted in a profound belief that by recognizing and honoring our complex, messy life stories with honesty and gentleness, we lay the foundation to heal the obstacles preventing us from building fulfilling, meaningful lives. Throughout life, we all create narratives about ourselves to help us survive. These narratives are shaped by myriad factors (individual life experiences, relationships, intergenerational legacies, and experiences of oppression/privilege, belonging/rejection, among others). Over time, our narratives and coping mechanisms fall short. We wonder, what went wrong? What's wrong with me?

Are you pregnant, trying to conceive or postpartum? Are you experiencing sadness, panic, sleep disturbance, stomach problems, worrying too much, avoidance, flashbacks, daydreaming, irritability, or a combination of these symptoms? Are you a bereaved parent? Or were you recently told that your baby has a life-limiting diagnosis and you don't know how to proceed with this pregnancy? Do you feel defeated as a parent and overwhelmed? Are you pregnant but scared because of a history of multiple losses? I am here to provide guidance, tools and support.
