Breaking free from substance abuse takes more than just saying no. For many people, there are often underlying reasons that make it extremely challenging to pursue sobriety on your own. Having a reliable and supportive person in your life makes a vast difference and helps set you up for success. As Mountainside Wilton's Outpatient Services Program Manager, I will draw from my years of clinical practice in treating substance use and mental health disorders to help guide you through your addiction recovery to understand the roots of your addiction and the impact it has had on your life.

I have been treating individuals for over twenty years. I find that people seek treatment during times of transition and distress. They are smart, educated individuals who are experiencing a difficulty and desire to improve their life. These difficulties often include relationships, careers, life transitions, illness, loss and bereavement.

A certain amount of stress, sadness, and anxiety is expected in our lives. However, when these feelings become overwhelming, they can interfere with daily functioning, relationships, work, and physical health. As a licensed psychologist, I am here to help you cope with life's challenges, learn about yourself, and change problematic thoughts and behaviors. I favor cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) because of its proven effectiveness in treating the problems that I most commonly see, including anxiety, stress, depression, and chronic pain/illness. It is based on the premise that the way we think directly affects how we feel and act.

It takes courage to reach out to a therapist but starting therapy can provide you with the caring, support and guidance that will make a difference in your life. Talking openly about your struggles is not easy when you are feeling at a low point, but doing it is empowering and hopeful. I am a good listener and know the importance of the right questions and helpful feedback. I understand that you want a therapist who will see you as a whole person.

My goal is to help you to feel heard and understood as perhaps never before. Through careful listening and questioning, I will help you to formulate your thoughts and identify all of your feelings, so together we can come to understand your internal emotional life. Finding ways to manage your anxiety and emotional reactions, we will increase your capacity to tolerate stress and help your thinking become more flexible. As you experience more options in your responses within yourself and to others, you will feel an increased sense of confidence, moving you into a life in which you feel more fully engaged and authentically present.

***VIRTUAL SESSIONS ONLY***You want to find balance, peace, and joy in your life again. Maybe you're stretched too thin by working 12 hour days and 2 hour commutes. Or, maybe, you feel like you have lost a part of yourself because you are always taking care of family and friends. Or, maybe you feel like you are letting people down and not living up to the high bar you set for yourself. At the end of the day, you do not have much left to give. Your relationship is on auto-pilot and you cannot remember the last time you truly felt you were living the life you always imagined for yourself.

Are you struggling with depression? Anxiety? Relationships? Life comes with struggles and transitions that are often difficult to manage on our own. With assistance and support there can be increased awareness to self and the environment making life infinitely more enjoyable. I am a licensed therapist in the state of CT and specialize in the topics of anxiety, depression, grief, relationships, identity confusion, and pregnancy/postpartum. In couples work I focus on the importance of communication, trust, and sexual awareness. My approach to psychotherapy has emphasis on the needs of each individual client.

Relationship expert/infidelity issues. AASECT certified sex therapist, licensed Marriage and Family therapist, licensed psychoanalyst, licensed clinical psychiatric social worker. I've been in practice for over 25 years and during that time I've been able to treat a wide range of emotional problems in individuals, couples, adolescents, and families. Discovering the underlying causes of symptoms is the best way to produce a lasting cure. Through our work together you will attain a resolution or reduction of symptoms, gain a deeper self understanding and acceptance, and function authentically at your best in all aspects of your life.

My focus as a therapist is to learn from clients the areas of life - relationships, work, school, substance use - where they feel “stuck” and to work together to strategize ways to become “unstuck”. Setting goals and making progress towards those goals is paramount for clients to feel successful in the therapy process. I like to support clients in finding practical ways to start the change process and to help them maintain their motivation.

I provide support and assistance to adults, young adults, and adolescents who struggle with substance abuse, codependency, or child of alcoholic issues, in my practice. I believe in a person centered approach, where I try to meet the person wherever they are, and then help them to get to where they wish to be. Frequently people are coming to see me, when they are at a very difficult time in their life, and I believe it is my responsibility offer compassion,with competent treatment at those times.

Are you feeling overwhelmed and looking to reclaim control and find inner peace? I am an experienced and compassionate psychotherapist, skilled in working with a diverse population of individuals presenting varied mental health and medically complex issues, utilizing individual, couples, and family therapy. I offer an integrated approach to treatment, with various modalities tailored to meet my clients specific needs.

I know how hard it is to think about seeing a therapist and making that call. But it all about being empowered to use one's own strengths to see things clearly, and discover options and choices. It is all about two heads being better than one when a person is "stuck", maybe even knowing what to do but being unable to do it. It is important to find a well-trained therapist who has completed her own treatment and with whom one feels safe and comfortable.

Let's work together to solve the issues impacting your life and create a more balanced lifestyle that will open new opportunities for you to thrive. I am confident that we will make a strong connection and forge a therapeutic relationship that can change your life. Through a collaborative process, we can work through the problem together and seek new horizons. I have successfully worked with both adults and teens from many different cultural backgrounds and stages of the life cycle. Creating a safe and non-judgmental space for you to process what you are going through is something I invite you to experience.
