Therapists in West Suffield, CT

Life is hard and even downright frustrating at times. Everybody faces challenges in life but you don't have to go through them alone. It is OK to get some help while going through life. The first step to overcoming, breaking through, recovering and succeeding starts with the first phone call to come see me. Know your worth! Be brave enough to break the stigma we face surrounding counseling and therapy. I work hard to create a very safe space - no judging, no shaming - where you can be free to share what it is you might be struggling to conquer. Together we can get through it!

Many find themselves at a point where outside support is necessary to navigate life's challenges. Clients seek therapy for a variety of reasons. Some may come to therapy to deal with a specific struggle, such as depression or anxiety, while others initiate therapy during a difficult life transition. Even positive transitions, such as entering a new relationship or starting a new job, can be stressful. Psychotherapy is a collaborative process in which we address these challenges in a safe environment by processing events from the past, exploring current patterns of thinking and behavior, and creating plans for change in the future.

I’ve learned that the recipe for change is different for each individual and a large part of that is finding the right combination of motivators, techniques, and support systems to help people achieve their goals.
