Anxiety and doubt has been running your life for quite a while. Whether it is your own anxiety or the anxiety of your child, it feels like there is almost never a moment that is free from worry. You want to feel less controlled by the anxiety and more in charge of your own life again. You see what the anxiety is doing to you and to your family and desperately want to make a change. You may feel completely stuck and unsure of where to turn for help. With our years of experience in working with children, adults and families, Nicole Connolly, Ph.D. and Associates can help you break free from the anxiety and reclaim your life.
Under the supervision of Dr. Nicole Connolly, I focus on helping adults, kids, and families better understand their worries and fears and find new ways to address them and thrive. With my over 13 years of experience in the mental health field, I have the tools you need to improve your life and support your family.
Finding a therapist is not easy, especially when you are feeling unsure about who can really help you or your family. I, and the rest of our team, want all of our clients to feel comfortable and confident that we have true expertise in addressing your unique needs. Please call us for more information and to see if I may be a good fit for you!
