I am certified in Animal Assisted Therapy and together with my animal partners I offer a non traditional approach to treating anxiety, trauma and depression. Have you experienced trauma or loss? Are you struggling with stress, anxiety and/or depression? Is traditional talk therapy intimidating or not really your style? Maybe you just don't have the words to describe what you’re feeling. Well you have come to the right place.
I combine Animal Assisted Therapy with other evidence based techniques (DBT, CBT, Mindfulness and MI) to help adults and young adults (ages 16-18) heal from past trauma and learn to cope with anxiety and depression.
Located on 20+ acres of land in the quiet corner of CT, my animal partners (horses, goats, dogs and bunny) and I will work to find an approach to healing that feels right for you. Lets reach your full potential so you can live a full and healthy life.
