You’re highly capable. People rely on you. You’re the person who gets things done—but lately, you’re exhausted, overwhelmed, or running on autopilot. You may be successful on paper while quietly wondering how much longer you can keep operating this way. I’m Naina Rana, LCSW, and I work with high-achieving professionals—including technology and IT professionals, managers, lawyers, healthcare professionals, and executives—who are dealing with burnout, anxiety, chronic stress, difficult relationships, or major life changes. I also work with people navigating the emotional and relational impact of chronic illness and disability.
Therapy with me is structured, practical, and collaborative. We identify what is actually keeping you stuck, set clear goals, and build strategies you can use outside the therapy room. If you’ve tried therapy before and wanted something more focused or actionable, we can take a different approach.
You don’t need to completely overhaul your life. You need to understand what your mind and body have been signaling—and develop a sustainable way forward. If you’re ready to feel more like yourself again—clearer, steadier, and no longer constantly running on empty. I’m currently accepting new clients for virtual therapy in Connecticut. 203 488 2984.
