Teletherapy for Connecticut

Everyone is chasing happiness - an emotion that comes and goes - but perhaps what you are truly seeking is the state of peace. Making peace with our past while maintaining hope for the future may seem impossible right now, but that is where I can help. "You were born with wings, why prefer to crawl through life?" (Rumi)

Do behavioral issues cause stress in your household? Are you looking for new ways to approach your child’s mental health? Are you a young adult seeking a therapist you can connect with? Is your family struggling to connect in meaningful ways? If you or your child suffer from mental health, behavioral or emotional issues, it can be difficult to just get through the school day. You want to create a harmonious home environment for your child, but even after exhausting every strategy, you still feel disconnected and out of control. Therapy with someone experienced in working with children and families may help.

Are you struggling with anxiety or depression and want to develop coping strategies that work once you leave your therapy session? Are you navigating a life transition that leaves you feeling out of control? Are you a person with autism spectrum disorder in need of support to help you live your best life? You want tools that work in your real life when you’re triggered or confronted by situations that worsen your anxiety. You want to feel in control of your emotions, your environment, and your life. Therapy focused on finding real solutions can help you address your mental health issues so you can get back to building your life.

I have ten years of experience working in the mental health I have experience collaborating with school systems and families to resolve student behavioral issues to promote an optimum educational environment. My skills have enabled me to include family dynamics on a more therapeutic level. Working with families I have been able to use a more client centered approach. I have spent the past five years working specifically with co-occurring disorders of mental health and substance use as it infiltrates our communities and families leaving tragedy and loss behind. Behavioral health affects millions of us each day and often leaves us overwhelmed and discouraged.

As a therapist, I specialize in working with people who struggle with life transitions, relationship conflicts between spouses and family members, communication, anxiety, depression, PTSD and trauma, perinatal mood disorders, miscarriage, grief and loss, and substance use disorders. I am passionate about using a person-centered focus, and having an approachable, compassionate, and welcoming presence for my clients to feel comfortable to open up about their struggles. I am invested in helping individuals gain confidence in themselves to lead a happier and more fulfilling life.

You feel in many ways lost as an individual, lost in your relationship, lost at work or that life's expectations are going to break you. Do you often find yourself feeling alone, resentful or misunderstood? Do you have an inner critic that won't get out of your head? Tired of pretending things are fine? Do you feel like you forgot who you once were? ​Maybe you find yourself frequently conforming to other's expectations leaving you stuck and unsure of your own self identify. Do you feel guilty or ashamed because you are not living up to the image you once had in your mind as to what your life "should" look like?

Is depression or anxiety keeping you from engaging with life as you want to? Are your relationships suffering because of communication issues or mental health problems? Have you tried therapy in the past but stopped because it felt impersonal or formulaic? Dealing with mental health issues affects how you think about yourself, interact with loved ones, and how much effort you can use to chase your goals. If you’re ready to find positive solutions to your mental health and relationship issues, therapy with a person-centered approach may help.

Are you exhausted from carrying around the weight of anxiety? Does the struggle to get through your day with depression make you want to stay in bed? Are you overwhelmed by society's pressure to stay positive and try harder? Mental health issues can make even the most minor tasks seem impossible. You can’t get away from the swirling negative thoughts in your mind long enough to accomplish your goals. You want to engage with life and be present with your loved ones, but it all seems like too much effort. You need someone to guide you out of the dark and help you find your path to wellness.

I am currently accepting new clients ages 13+ for telehealth or in-person sessions! Asking for help can be difficult for many reasons, but I believe that there is so much strength and courage in allowing ourselves to be vulnerable. Vulnerability gives us the ability to form deeper connections with others, become more resilient, and be our authentic selves. I work to provide a space in which you feel safe enough to be vulnerable so that you may share your story, explore yourself, and connect with yourself and others in new ways.

Starting therapy for the first time (or with someone new) can be daunting. Finding that “right fit” can be difficult, but the search is worth it. If you or your loved one are struggling this year, you’re not alone. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and my goal is to create a safe, comfortable environment with a balance of warmth, empathy, and humor, where my clients feel they can be themselves.
