East Hartford, CT 06118
My specialties are depression, anxiety, women's issues, relationship issues, communication skills, anger management, self esteem, and assertiveness skills/boundary setting (getting out of toxic relationships).
I enjoy helping people to see how amazing they are - we can lose sight of this fast when not feeling our best. I have a very down to earth approach and I'm all about identifying and using your own strengths to solve issues, foster and build empowerment, and move past shame and self criticism. Therapy is different for each person depending on your needs, preferences, and goals. The experience should be judgement free, safe, and understanding, which is crucial. I have been practicing through the lens of constant anti racism, anti imperialism, anti oppression and Liberation focused training, which I place the utmost importance on.

Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, low self esteem, relationship issues, life changes, or women's issues, you don't need to struggle alone.

One of the few constants in life is change. If you are in a period of transition you may be feeling confused, anxious, or depressed, and alone with your struggles. Times of transition may include: Divorce, educational or career changes, changing stages in our children's or parent's lives, tackling addictions, issues of grief and/or loss. Transitions, while challenging and often stressful, with good professional support can be opportunities for true personal growth and transformation. I offer a compassionate, non-judgmental and confidential place for us to explore together how best to help you to feeling better.

Therapy can help to decrease stress or anxiety, improve communication in relationships and make a positive shift in your overall well-being.

I believe that therapy is most effective when it is a collaborative effort. I strive to build on the strengths of my clients and help them to develop plans to achieve their goals.

Self Esteem Therapists
When should a person seek therapy for low self-esteem?
When self-esteem problems begin to disrupt the healthy daily functioning of an individual, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not engaging with friends for fear of being judged, not completing work assignments because they don’t think they’re capable, or not finding romantic love because they don’t feel they’re worthy of it, a therapist may be able to help.
What are the signs of low self-esteem?
Low self-esteem is a common issue that can affect a person's mental and emotional well-being. Some common signs of low self-esteem include negative self-talk, perfectionism, social anxiety, difficulty making decisions, an inability to set boundaries, people-pleasing, and others. A lack of belief in oneself or one’s abilities and a feeling of not being worthy or deserving underlie most of these characteristics.
What causes low self-esteem?
Feelings of low self-worth can begin in childhood or adulthood. Being raised by a highly critical parent or growing up feeling constant disapproval can stay with a person well into adulthood. Specific issues in adulthood may also be a cause of low self-esteem. An unhappy relationship, a dysfunctional work or school experience can impact a person’s feelings of self-worth.
How can therapy improve self-esteem?
Therapists can help identify negative thought patterns that keep the client stuck in a loop of destructive self-talk and develop coping skills to change the voice in their head. A therapist can help with goal-setting, so that clients are better able to stay on task and build confidence from successfully completing work they’re proud of. Coaching a client on how to better communicate can improve relationships. These skills can result in someone with low self-esteem feeling empowered and living with less fear.
