Grief Therapists in Canton, CT

Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or scared by the current situation? Are you feeling alone in all of this? You may feel extremely uncomfortable with emotions that are very difficult to manage, and don't know where to turn. I can help. Talk to me and we can figure out coping skills to get you through this. I work with all kinds of transitions and change. I am a very strong listener and supporter, and I can help you figure out what skills you need to strengthen or learn to stay balanced, motivated, and effective. I am holding one-on-one sessions with very strong safety precautions in place or telehealth sessions via phone.

You've achieved and empathized to the point of exhaustion, making it look easy while masking your needs and real feelings. Do you take great care of everyone, while privately buzzing 24-7 from unspoken worry or loss? Has grief punched a hole in your life that you're supposed to "get over?" Hiding it can leave you disconnected and aching for comfort. With me, you find a safe haven to show up exactly as you are. You get a partner who gets deep emotion, who sees you and guides you to better possibilities. Finally leave the past in the past, so you can face the present with more self-trust.

I believe that we all have great potential and with help, we can achieve our personal goals. The therapeutic process is to help you to become your best self. I love to join with my clients in this process.

Accepting new telehealth referrals. I provide therapy for children, adolescents and adults in both individual and family/couple counseling. With an emphasis on collaborative solution building I am able to provide my clients an open and warm atmosphere to rediscover their strengths and achieve goals. Working within this collaborative approach I offer a wide range of therapeutic services that include working with adults and children experiencing divorce and co-parenting issues, grief, depression, anxiety, adjustment disorders and parenting problems.

I help children, adolescents and adults cope with symptoms of anxiety and depression stemming from trauma, conflict, grief or other life transitions. I am a wife of over 20 years and mother of 2, ages 22 and 19. I’ve been a school counselor in Waterbury for 15 years and a licensed clinician for 2. I'm a seasoned professional both in life and as a therapist and I intend to use my knowledge and experience to help my clients understand their needs and make change in order to feel better. I see you and honor you as a person and invite you to walk with me on your journey of healing at my private practice, Instillness Therapy LLC.

Currently accepting new tele-health clients! Together we will foster greater self-awareness. Your personal strengths will be our foundation and guide! We will work towards a deeper understanding of one’s self and knowledge of limitations, whether it is in relation to work, school, relationships, and life changes.

Life is full of uncertainties and sometimes we can get "stuck" in patterns that no longer serve us or our relationships. If you are struggling to see your potential or your path to healing, let me help you find the key. There is hope. You've done the first step by recognizing that something is no longer working for you. Now, you are seeking help and it does not have to be done alone.

Sometimes, we just need more support to feel our best and you deserve to feel fulfilled and empowered to live your best life. A lot of us have experienced a traumatic event, a crisis or unpleasant experiences that may be responsible for ongoing anxiety and depressive symptoms. Everyday life stressors, anxiety, distress, and depression can be very difficult to manage on your own. I am passionate about helping others to feel their best, learn REAL skills that will help reduce these negative symptoms so you can feel empowered and free to move forward with living a fulfilling life.

Are you looking for a better way? As we work together, you can optimize the strengths you already possess, develop insight, and learn techniques that can help you heal yourself and nurture your relationships. The goal of therapy is to begin to see yourself and others in new and more productive ways. I enjoy working with adults, couples, and teens (from the age of 15) of all backgrounds, sexual orientations, and interests. Often, work with teens will include some level of interaction with caregivers so that constructive adjustments can be made and sustained.

Everyone has a story to tell. Our life experiences make our ever-evolving story unique. And sometimes, those experiences are painful… Broken relationships that we fought hard to keep together. Hating the person we see when we look in the mirror. Constantly comparing our failures to others who seem to have it all together. It’s just one disappointing chapter after another.

Struggling with Anxiety, Depression, feelings of shame or inadequacy? Maybe you have difficulty connecting to others, creating healthy boundaries, or trusting after a relationship ended painfully. Does fear of failure keep you from trying something you've desired or from reaching your full potential. I've helped many clients experiencing these difficulties, get "unstuck", heal, and move forward with more peace, joy, confidence, and purpose. Above all, I believe the therapeutic relationship is the most important ingredient in successful therapy and that each unique person engaging in the process is deserving of attuned connection.

I enjoy working with adults, individually and as couples in addressing a wide range of issues. We will explore your family of origin as you gain greater insight into life schemas and patterns and develop coping strategies and communication skills. Substance abuse and dependency and domestic violence fall under my areas of expertise as well. I use trauma informed approaches including EMDR, cognitive behavioral therapy, dbt, talk therapy and somatic therapy.

Life can be difficult and no one gets by without some pain at different points in their life. I work with individuals, couples and families to identify and change how they are interacting to achieve better relationships and outcomes-to help you lead happier, healthier, more contented lives. I enjoy working with people on the myriad of issues during the course of a relationship and family life-in life in general. I'm also dedicated to working with addictions issues and recovery from any addiction. Let's meet and discuss how we can work together to meet your goals.

Disconnection between you and what you want for yourself, or between you and someone you love, can be sad, lonely, frightening, incredibly frustrating - and even paralyzing at times. You don’t have to face this alone.

Tele-therapy Sessions Available! Like many journeys, therapy begins with where you are now, factors in where you have been, and creates a plan for where you want to go. I believe that therapy is a collaborative process. You are the expert on your life and its future direction. As your therapist, I will provide a safe, confidential space to explore relevant events in your life that may be influencing your ability to reach your objectives. I will assist by providing insight, life skills, and support so that you can take the steps necessary to lessen your symptoms, enhance your self-knowledge, and effectively meet life's challenges.

I believe that therapy can be effective in helping those that suffer from addiction. I have worked in in detox, outpatient and residential treatment. It is essential in treating people affected by this malady to understand the nature of the problem involved in treating this condition. Addiction does not exist in a vacuum. Recognizing and treating other problems, trauma, anxiety and depression, and the relationship between those problems and addiction, is necessary for successful treatment. I am extensively trained in trauma therapies, including Accelerated Resolution Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy.

I specialize in weaving together mind, body, and energy based practices to support your overall well being. Do you ever wonder why your reaction to a situation is stronger than you'd like it to be? You feel overwhelmed, you know you are overreacting, but can't seem to do anything different, no matter how hard you try. If so, then we should talk. It is likely you have some outdated limiting beliefs operating beneath the surface. I use a mind-body-energy approach which blends together EMDR, (CBT), mindfulness and breathwork, inner child and "parts work," Havening, and Clinical EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) tapping.

Accepting new clients. I have over 18 years of therapeutic experience working with individuals and families. The cornerstone of my treatment style focuses on a strength based approach to support you as you examine the factors that have contribute to life stressors. I work to support you & your loved ones to develop healthy coping skills to implement. If you are dealing with depression, anxiety, family conflict, trauma, school based issues or social conflict together we can develop new strategies to cope with these stressors. Together we examine negative patterns in your life to begin your journey of healing.
