Alcohol Use Therapists in Hartford, CT

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family therapist who specializes in working with trauma, anxiety and substance abuse. I utilize various models in therapy such as CBT, DBT, experiential, and solution focused. I am EMDR trained and have over 7 years of clinical experience working with children, parents, couples, individuals and families.

As an experienced Medical Doctor I believe the strong connection between mind and body requires a holistic approach to healing somebody both mentally and physically. Many times a physical symptom can be a manifestation of a mental condition and the same can be said that a mental condition can be the symptom of a physical issue. I want to bring you my experience treating both mental and physical conditions to help you find a happy balance.

Are you thinking about starting therapy? Congratulations! Therapy is a big deal and an important step towards your personal growth. Whether you are considering therapy for the first time or returning to it, prioritizing your mental health works wonders for improving your overall well-being. At its core, therapy must be safe and nonjudgmental, so it is important to consider who is the best fit for you.

Welcome to New Path Counseling! We are accepting new clients. We have in-office and Telehealth appointment availabilities. You can schedule your appointment by clicking on our website link. We have clinicians who are licensed in the state of MA, CT, and RI. Life is full of challenges and unpredictable, we can’t always mitigate or control these; the key is to be aware of our maladaptive behaviors and build strength by enhancing our awareness and creating a new path for ourselves, family, and/or couple. We understand that not everyone can heal and cope the same way.

Healing is never a “one size fits all” process. When it comes to recovery, every journey has its own ups and downs, twists and turns, hills and valleys. Know that you don’t have to go that journey alone. At Climbing Out Solutions, you will find a genuine walking partner on the road to healing. I am passionate about accompanying individuals and families on their path to recovery.

​Are you experiencing unhealthy habits such as overeating, arguments in relationships, or difficulties at work? Learning about how feelings/emotions affect thoughts, how thoughts affects behavior, and learning how to self-regulate when feeling overwhelmed can be helpful with understanding one’s emotions. I help my clients by using interpersonal effectiveness tools for healthy communication that can help reduce/decrease symptoms of depression and anxiety. I also incorporate cultural factors into my therapeutic work

Hi, I'm glad you have sought out help. I know that picking a provider can be a difficult process. I have been working as a counselor for the past 8 years.

My work as a clinical social worker, in a supportive environment, is to help you find and implement solutions to the challenges that you are facing in your life

Are you a person of faith who has been experiencing difficulties in life? Have you found yourself asking, "If God is all-good and all-powerful, why is there so much evil in the world, and in my own life?!" Have your emotions taken a turn for the worse? Do you find yourself depressed and/or anxious - more often than not? Have you been turning to alcohol and/or drugs to "kill the pain?" Are you plagued by, or living in, the past, and/or filled with fear and uncertainty regarding the future? Finally, do you want to find a way out of all the overwhelming & frustrating emotions that have been putting your life on "pause?"

Headspace, where your brain is not a vessel to be filled but a fire to be ignited. We believe in creating calm in the midst of any storm. Life is full of twists and turns and sometimes it is difficult to navigate. Giving yourself the time you need to overcome challenges is essential to your growth, and we strive to assist in that process. We believe everyone should feel loved and accepted no matter the race, age, ethnicity, gender and sexual orientation. We hope to provide a safe space where you can not only explore your journey and self, but realize you are far greater than you know.

I believe we all have the potential to live our best life, however, sometimes we feel stuck and overwhelmed. I can support you to move forward. I am an experienced (20+ years) bilingual /bicultural therapist providing mental health to children, adolescents, college students and adults in a nurturing, safe environment. My goal is to support clients in deepening their understanding of themselves. My work is anchored in psychodynamic perspective, CBT, relational and with current neurobiological understanding of healing such as EMDR. I believe each individual is unique and therapy should be tailored to their needs and strengths.

Life changes and we appear to find a solution to the pain, only to discover what you thought was helping has hijacked your life. When we are authentic, the window to our life has to be opened. Being heard and seen are the keys to opening that place where you matter. When we are overwhelmed our mental health looks for a relief from pain in any way that works. The use of a substance or an unhealthy behavior, takes more than it gives ; the skillset I have will help you discover and explore your path, focusing on regaining balance, motivation, and self-respect. I offer a safe, therapeutic, and compassionate environment.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with many years of experience working with adults and adolescents. I specialize in mood disorders, anxiety, ADHD, and interpersonal stressors. I have many years of personal and professional experience working with families impacted by foster care and adoption and am a foster parent myself. I also enjoy working with first responders and continue to learn and educate myself in supporting our front line folks. I am an optimistic and upbeat person and I enjoy helping my clients learn to love themselves and see the world in a more positive light.

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 feeling stressed, sad or overwhelmed? Have life's difficulties led you to withdraw from activities you previously enjoyed? Are you experiencing a challenging life transition? We all experience difficult personal times when we need to reach out for additional support. As your therapist, we will develop practical strategies, identify your strengths, and work together to begin moving you towards a more fulfilling and balanced life.

It can often feel like your mind is on an emotional roller coaster. Some days you find contentment in your daily life and secure attachment in your relationships, but other days you can feel consumed by anxiety, concerns about being abandoned, and/or find yourself engaging in impulsive behaviors in an attempt to find fullfilment. Are you struggling with identifying your own strengths and self-worth? Do you value relationships with others, but find it hard to maintain connection? With the right therapist, you can find stability and personal growth.
