Eclectic Therapists in Bristol, CT

Helping people who seek healing and self-improvement has been the focus of my professional life. Much of my work has been with individuals trying to deal with challenges related to conditions such as anxiety, depression and ADHD. I also have considerable experience helping parents, especially those whose children have disabilities of all kinds. My approach is eclectic. It begins with learning about you (e.g., your feelings, thoughts/beliefs, actions, life experiences, stage of life & health). I also consider other factors that influence your well-being (e.g., family, relationships, work, societal pressures).

I'm here to help you develop the tools that you need to navigate these new and challenging terrains. My goal is to help my clients combat symptoms of anxiety, depression, trauma, everyday stress, and more!

This is when a therapist can help you to see things from a different perspective, make new connections, and explore new ways to approach your life.
