Teletherapy for Torrington, CT

Being a human can be quite painful at times. We have complex feelings and thoughts some conscious, some unconscious. Trying to navigate life and our relationships can be hard. The beauty of therapy is we don’t have to navigate it alone. Together we can examine what has been coming to mind for you. I offer a calm presence and non judgemental space for you to talk things out. As we talk my hopes are you will embody a greater self awareness, resolve inner conflicts, experience symptom relief, improve relationships, and enhance your self esteem. Through this personal development my clients experience self acceptance.

I am committed to creating a caring, accepting and non-judgmental environment in which clients feel understood, valued, and safe to open up, explore and express their thoughts and feelings. I work with symptoms of anxiety disorders including panic, OCD and phobias using the most effective evidence-based, shorter-term cognitive behavioral and mindfulness based therapies which help reduce acute symptoms within weeks. For people seeking to overcome longer term depression, anger, low self-esteem and self-defeating habits that keep them from living life more fully, I use longer term insight-oriented psychotherapy.

Immediate Openings! Maybe you’re feeling stuck? Perhaps you feel overwhelmed and anxious, wondering how you’re going to hold it all together to get through the next month or even week.
