Therapists in Woodbury, CT

Do you or your child find yourselves caught up in a constant cycle of anxiety and worry?You might feel that it looks like you have it together on the outside, but inside you're just holding it together. This constant worry can make you feel restless, irritable or hopeless. Together, in a supportive environment, we can work to focus on your strengths and make small changes that will go a long way. If your goal is to feel confident and productive again, no matter your age or life circumstances, we can create a treatment plan together to get there.

For the past 30 years, my personal quest has been to find the most transformative tools, skills and techniques to create a healthy, joyful and abundant life. Understanding is power. Once you grasp that your personal beliefs create your emotions, and that those emotions cause your behaviors, you’re then in a position to transform your life. Similar to updating a computer's old operating system to gain maximum function, we need to update our old ways of thinking as well. Outdated and negative beliefs can be reframed and replaced with healthy and positive ones.
