Therapists in Stamford, CT

My job is to help you when you don't have all the answers yourself. I have significant clinical experience with children, adolescents and adults, with a wide variety of issues. I work passionately to help my clients, using an eclectic approach determined solely by their needs. I work closely with other professionals with different specialties, and I will not hesitate to refer you to whoever I believe can help you best. Frequently, I work collaboratively with such specialists, especially if medication is involved. (I also feel very fortunate to be a frequent referral for many doctors, psychologists and psychiatrists.)

Seeking help for the personal struggles you are facing takes courage and persistence. I learned this firsthand as a young college student away from home and facing some of my own painful life circumstances. The help I received inspired me to become a therapist and I have felt privileged to do this work ever since. I have over 20 years of experience helping adults and adolescents in individual, family and couples therapy. My approach combines the skilled listening of a well trained ear with caring, warmth and pointed questions, allowing your personal story to unfold.

I work with a flexible, eclectic approach utilizing the "whatever works" principle. Expressive, dynamic exploration is an important approach that underlies most therapeutic conversation. When possible, a short-term treatment will be used to reach goals. For stress, traumatic memory and anxiety, I often use EMDR, cognitive behavioral, mindfulness training, and body-centered techniques. Always, strength-based and positive psychology are at the forefront of my thinking along with awareness of the spiritual foundations of meaningful human life.

Are you someone who wants more out of life? Don't let anxiety stop you. It’s not just enough for me to see you work past your issues, I want to see you thrive in life. If you want the life of dreams, I invite you to come see me, and let’s get you there together.

We have been helping our Connecticut neighbors with quality Neurofeedback/Biofeedback healing work for over a decade, centered in the heart of the Greenwich CT business district. Our focus is in restoring holistic balance to the brain by helping to correct neurological dys-regulation patterns, which accumulate over the years in the brain due to both emotional and chemical stress/trauma. We have helped many restore balance in their lives due to the effects of ADD/ADHD, Anxiety/Depression, PTSD, OCD, Learning difficulties, Memory issues, Fatigue and many other related neurological issues.

My clinical focus is developmental trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, mood and addictive disorders. I employ an integrative approach to therapy, designed to reduce intrusive symptoms and improve functioning, and to support overall wellness. Depending on your needs, goals and preferences, we can combine traditional "talk" therapy with QEEG informed Neurofeedback, and EMDR, to aid recovery from adverse life experiences, and move from surviving to engaging more fully in the world. Having significant personal experience in my own life transformation, I will strive to help you uncover and strengthen your own inner resources to support you in facing your unique life challenges.

We make it easier than ever to access counseling. If you do not find the right counselor, it is ok to switch! Trust me, I started our group because I was annoyed that I had to speak to so many counselors before finding the right one for me.

My clinical focus is PTSD, developmental trauma and addictive disorders. I combine traditional "talk" therapy with QEEG-informed Neurofeedback and EMDR, where appropriate. This offers you the best chance of healing past emotional wounds, alleviating symptoms, and living more fully in the present. The subtle, transformative power of Neurofeedback helps many clients resolve the traumatic stress, fear and anxiety that often underly behavioral and addictive disorders. EMDR is another powerful tool that can help resolve emotional trauma, improve functioning, and help you become more present-focused.

Welcome to my profile! I am the Owner and Executive Director of The Neurovation Center, located in Sandy Hook, CT. The Neurovation Center provides counseling to individuals, couples, kids and families, in a warm and welcoming environment. I enjoy helping couples who feel "we've already tried everything and it hasn't worked!" and have been able to bring about hope, healing and change for families struggling to cope with conflict, grief, loss and trauma.

I work with clients across age groups ranging from adolescents to older adults and is specialized in treating a broad spectrum of diagnoses ranging from anxiety, depression and post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) through traumatic brain injury and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). I hold a full time appointment as a Supervising Psychologist with the State of CT and is currently an Adjunct Faculty Member at the University of Hartford. In addition, I am a Certified Brain Injury Specialist Trainer (CBIST) with extensive experience as a national and international speaker on emotional trauma and brain injury.

I have had extensive experience working with families in regards to emotional regulation, depression, trauma, anxiety, family relationships, and crisis intervention. My caseload largely consisted of adolescent youth having areas of need focusing around stabilization in the community. One of the largest considerations is their own desire to change, grow, or pursue their goals, which is normally a pillar to their treatment. A client looking to learn more about themselves, identify areas of need, and strive toward achieving their goals would benefit greatly from the treatment I can provide.

My approach to providing therapy is guided by the person that is receiving the service. Every persons situation and need is different, therefore I believe various approaches are needed to address life's problems. I was led to work in this field at the start in dealing with my own life's concerns. I have and continue to work on myself as a person, so that I can be the best person I can be. This in return becomes a gift that my clients can receive in return. We can only take our clients as far as we have gone. In my practice I hold space for the four basic realms of the human journey - Physical, Intellectual, Emotional, Spiritual.
