Hi, I'm Trish Do you ever feel like you are your own worst enemy? Or perhaps that you will never have the life you want and have dreamed of living? Reaching out for therapy takes both courage and humility, and I am honored to join you on your journey. We all have blind spots and often fail to give ourselves credit for the strengths and qualities that our uniquely ours. As a therapist, I will promise to help bring out your best, so that you can make the changes needed to welcome joy into your life.

I work with children, adolescents, couples and families. I have extensive experience in trauma recovery, stepfamily issues, dissociative identity disorder and parent empowerment. I also work with local attorneys and the courts in high conflict custody cases, I facilitate coparenting after divorce and I perform family reunification. With special training in EMDR, Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy, and Sand Tray Therapy, I bring a range of talents and expertise to all that I do. I also enjoy my work as an adjunct professor of psychology at Norwalk Community College.

I help individuals, couples, and families navigate through anxiety, depression, relationship issues, conflict, trauma, and life transitions. I specialize in maternal mental health including preventing and treating perinatal anxiety, depression, and birth trauma. I believe healing is relational-between you and parts of you and you and the people in your life. I'm passionate about helping people heal themselves and their lineage through ending harmful cycles. I work with children, teenagers, adults, couples, and families.

I work collaboratively with you to create a safe, supportive relationship to help you to identify and attain your goals. So often we know what is wrong but don't know how to "fix it." I work with you to get to the heart of the matter, working closely with you to find joy and contentment in work, relationships and life. My expertise as a therapist, trainer, and supervisor has shown me that deep and lasting change is absolutely possible with guidance, caring, and courage. I learn new skills every year to help you to heal from anxiety, difficult and traumatic experiences and also in parenting challenges with your child and teenager.

Tired of ‘talking’ about your feelings and explaining yourself to another therapist? Let your art speak for YOU! With the 'Mindfulness of DBT‘ and client centered therapy; we create a “Tool Kit’ custom designed for your specific needs and goals using art and art therapy directives. Grounding and self-regulating skills are the foundation of our work together. Selecting art materials, what and how you create, the interpretation and meaning of your art; begins the therapeutic dialogue. Clients gain self-esteem, a new perspective and ability to tackle their issues and life challenges in a healthier and more productive way.

It is my hope that this is the last time you have to go online and search for a therapist. With individuals of all ages, I engage in a joint effort toward symptom relief and self-actualization. My intention is for clients to look forward to coming to therapy and to feel supported and guided in the journey. I combine a traditional approach (of closeness and connection) with a decade of psychological expertise and cutting-edge research.

A commitment to treat the whole person: BODY, MIND, HEART AND SPIRIT. My practice is dedicated to treating children, adolescent, college students, their family members, and special needs. Adults are seen on a case by case. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, Expressive Therapist, and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. I view the body, mind, and spirit as being integrally connected and my practice is based on neuroscience research. My approach is integrative, holistic, dynamic, and experiential.

I have a passion for helping people of all ages improve their relationships, develop healthy coping skills and heal from relational injuries or trauma. In a safe and accepting environment we explore and understand the things that are not working well for you. There is always a reason for people's choices and behaviors, even those that cause significant problems. Once you understand the reason behind the behavior you can begin to make changes and adopt new healthier ways of living. I walk alongside and encourage you in this often difficult, but rewarding process.

For 25 years, I have helped people resolve their difficulties with regard to: grief and loss, struggles in their relationships, abuse/trauma related issues, eating disorders, substance abuse and other addictions, behavioral problems, self-esteem, anxiety and depression. Our work together will help you work through difficulties, to promote positive change in your life. I will teach you about underlying psychological principles that help you to understand yourself and how you relate in the world. Along with helping you to understand, I will provide you with many tools, which will give you a clear sense of direction, for making lasting, positive, changes in your life.

Are you feeling stuck in your life? Do you find yourself repeating the same patterns in relationships? We create a safe, non-judgmental space to explore your behaviors, feelings and beliefs. We help you to become more connected with your intuition and gain clarity and awareness to live a more fulfilling life. Whether couples therapy, individual counseling, family therapy, or behavioral issues in children, our team of therapists can help. We work with young children, adolescents and adults and treat a variety of issues.

Hi, I am Dr Julia, director of Creative Therapies. Over thirty years I have developed and fine-tuned a unique, whole-child approach to child therapy. After your consultation, initial parent intake and goal setting, your child will enter therapy. Whether your child plays, draws, or talks, the challenges will present for healing, usually in the very first session, and often different from what the parents identified. Your child will play, resolve and master challenges. While unlike traditional child therapy you participate in weekly phone discussions, receive assignments, techniques and answers to your questions and concerns.
