Therapists in West Hartford, CT

*** I currently do not have openings*** Given all that has happened in the past few years, life can feel overwhelming and/or out of control. Psychotherapy can provide you a place to heal, turn your life around, feel more empowered, and to begin to have the life you want. Even the most independent adults need help once in awhile. I will work to help you feel safe and supported. We'll go at a pace that feels comfortable, while selecting the best tools for you. Our work can help you begin to feel calm, relieved, hopeful, and encouraged.

Finding your inner strength and healing is an emotional journey, and I am willing to travel through it with you. I will offer you a calm, non-judgmental, even playful place as we explore ways to improve your life.

Life presents us with many challenges and sometimes we fail to see opportunities in these challenges. We also often have difficulty accessing our own internal resources and reaching out to external supports. All of us wish for purpose, hope and joy in our lives. I believe that psychotherapy can address these goals. Therapy will empower you to look to your strengths, to reach into your own resiliency, to find resources in your life that can nourish and support you. To do this, we will work together to create change that is lasting and meaningful.

My intention as a therapist is to be your guide on your journey to healing. I believe everyone has the ability to heal and create the life they have always dreamed of. Many times we have unconscious blocks that keep us from living the life we want. These "blocks" are often unhealed wounds that cause individuals to have negative beliefs, anxiety, depression, and even physical symptoms. I can assist you in identifying these blocks and restoring the natural balance with your mind, body, and spirit.

Are you worried about your future together? Fighting too much, too often, too intensely? Or the opposite: avoiding conflict for fear of getting lost in it. Conflicts that are avoided or are too long and too intense and too difficult to recover from will all weigh you down. You know that things can be easier: you know you could communicate more efficiently, smarter, and get to have fun together on the other side this. What you need then is a therapist who can diagnose communicational difficulties and engineer solutions that keep you out of the same trouble in the future.

Is something getting in your way, keeping you stuck, and preventing you from truly living life and experiencing joy? Life is full of many difficult moments that make us feel hopeless and depleted, but you don’t have to stay in that space. I am here to support you and guide you on a path towards healing and growth. My goal is to help you develop the insight and skills that can lead to your most profound transformation. I will hold the space you need to feel safe to explore the depths of your mind, body and spirit. There is no judgment, only gentle guiding with the mutual goal of helping you to live a more satisfied and centered life.

You’ve hit the wall. You can’t do any more, can’t manage your stress and can’t imagine struggling like this for the rest of your life. Things are so unpleasant and uncomfortable that you know you need help, but don’t know where to look or who can provide what you need. You can’t go back to when you were happier, and you can’t move forward like this. You need someone who is going to understand your concerns and can objectively and reassuringly help you feel better.

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.

I am a licensed clinical social worker, a licensed drug and alcohol counselor and have a person centered approach to work with you. I work in a non-judgmental environment where you can feel safe, get vulnerable and make the changes you want to see in your life.

I am a cognitive-behavioral therapist that draws from current research to tailor treatments for each client. Whether it may be your first time to a psychologist or if you may want to try a different approach, both decisions are the product of a considerable amount of bravery. I believe that a non-judgemental, collaborative, and trusting relationship is the foundation for change to occur.

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.

Each of us experience stress, anxiety, depression, and grief throughout life, and the need for love, safety, respect, and nurturing. The question isn't whether you can eliminate these feelings and needs; rather the question to ask is; "How do I take responsibility for fully understanding myself?" I declare that everyone is being called to discover themselves in the deepest sense. "What is your spirit communicating to you?" "What do you need to live a healthy life?" As you ponder these questions, I believe that your pain is what pushes you and your vision is what pulls you through life.

Are you looking for a therapeutic approach that's totally DIFFERENT from what you've experienced before?

If you need someone with whom you or your child will actually CONNECT, and who is not only an expert listener but also a facilitator of REAL CHANGE, then welcome! Today is the first day of your new path.
