So here’s the truth: I was a dually adjudicated youth in Connecticut, raised in both foster and juvenile facilities.
I’ve found that using the 8 Dimensions of Wellness as a foundation helps us pinpoint where things feel off-whether you hate your job and need the courage to quit, go back to school, build your own company, or you're dealing with environmental stress and want the strength to finally leave your abusive partner. Lets identify, solution & integrate your dreams.

It takes a lot of courage and strength to enter therapy. I provide a safe, supportive, and positive environment where the sources of stress and life difficulties would be identified. Ways to work through and overcome life challenges would then be presented and focused on with the goal of improving your life one step at a time. I use an integrative approach, in which I draw upon various models of therapy, such as cognitive behavioral, humanistic, and mindfulness-based therapies. I feel that this is an effective way to work collaboratively with you to create a personalized approach that fits your unique needs and goals.

I work with individuals from all backgrounds who may be struggling with anxiety, OCD, grief, trauma, or feeling stuck in painful or overwhelming patterns. I believe many emotional responses develop for a reason, and rather than viewing them as something “wrong,” I approach them with curiosity, compassion, and a desire to better understand what they may be communicating. Utilizing EMDR, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Internal Family Systems (IFS) we will work not just to talk things through, but gently help our nervous systems process what's being held onto.

Soribel’s ideal client is a busy mother or caregiver overwhelmed by life’s demands juggling childcare, health concerns, emotional stress, and unresolved family issues. They long for peace at home, deeper family connections, and emotional healing, but struggle to find time or transportation for traditional therapy.

You might be in the middle of a big transition, or capable and accomplished on the outside while quietly carrying anxiety, burnout, or a sense that something isn't right. You might be wrestling with a hard decision, questioning a path you once felt sure of, or navigating questions of identity, belonging, and what it means to live authentically — including as an LGBTQ+, trans, non-binary, or gender-fluid person, or as a man working to engage more fully with your inner life. Together, we'll make sense of what's weighing on you and find a path forward that feels honest and right.

FAQ - Teenage and Adolescent Therapists
What does therapy for teenagers look like?
When a therapist works with a teenager, the pair will talk about what the teen is struggling with and explore solutions, which may involve interpersonal skills, coping strategies, medication, or lifestyle changes related to sleep, diet, and exercise. Different therapists employ different modalities, but most involve a combination of conversation and skill building.

How long does therapy for teenagers generally take to work?
There’s variability in teenagers’ experiences and challenges; some may begin to improve from therapy within a few weeks while others may take several months or longer. Teens can discuss their progress with their therapist periodically to assess how they’re improving and any changes to the treatment plan that could potentially accelerate that progress.

How do you encourage a teenager to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love while framing therapy as an opportunity to explore a tool that could help improve their life; just like they practice baseball or dance, now they can practice their emotional skills. Give your teen control over the process where you can—maybe by weighing in on choice of therapist and signaling that therapy involves confidentiality, so a parent need not know all that is discussed in sessions.

How do you prepare teens for therapy?
You can prepare your teenager for therapy by describing what the process will look like and setting expectations for timeline, if requested. You can explain that the first session may begin with an assessment phase, that they can describe their experiences but that the therapist will ask questions too, and that it may take time to feel comfortable opening up. Ask how they’re feeling about the process and answer any questions calmly and supportively.
