Therapists in North Stonington, CT

Therapy is a collaborative relationship. I work with clients to develop a safe and trusting relationship that we can use to explore challenging interpersonal patterns, to work through stressful life events and conflicts, and to better understand the motivations underlying our behavior. Through the therapeutic relationship, we can develop an awareness of the impact thoughts, emotions, behaviors and interpersonal relationships have on the way we cope with life events. By understanding how the past impacts the present we can gain insight into our current issues and develop the skills to manage the challenges in our daily lives.

You may be struggling with the overwhelm and overstimulation in the world today impacting your individual relationships and self-regulation.

Having Substance use and Psychoeducational Rehabilitation, Child Protection Services, Mitigation Services, Judicial Criminal and Family Court, School Social Work and Individual Counseling experience since 1996, I am familiar with the wide range of circumstances we face in life.
