Solution Focused Brief (SFBT) Therapists in Colchester, CT

Are you stuck or feel overwhelmed? Do you think that it’s time to explore the parts of you that feel stuck? Give me a call? I am offering Telehealth and in person appointments.

Hello! My name is Patricia Sciglimpaglia-Vigue, a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Connecticut. I have a master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Saint Joseph. I have counseling experience working with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, family conflict, goal setting, anger management with specialties in sports performance, and LGBTQ+ affirming counseling.

Life involves constant changes, and is not always easy. Change is necessary for growth, but can cause confusion and discomfort, which may impair our ability to move towards the fulfilling lives we envision. Feelings of hopelessness and isolation often lead to unhelpful means of coping, which create a new set of problems. No matter what your struggle, you don't have to do this alone. I believe that a supportive, therapeutic relationship, with you in the driver's seat, can provide clarity and direction. My person-centered approach can help you feel more secure as you navigate your own path. I look forward to walking it with you.

I am a trauma informed therapist with over 16 years of experience working holistically with adults (21+) managing stress, depression, anxiety, grief/loss, trauma, and challenges related to relationships. I primarily use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution Focused Therapy (SFT) and Internal Family Systems (IFS) techniques. My ideal clients are ready to do the hard work of healing. This includes in session and out of session work/exercises such as reading, listening to podcasts, watching relevant videos and trying out new things related to regulating your unique nervous system.

Are you in a position in which you feel emotionally, mentally, physically, and or spiritually off balance? Is it your personal thoughts and actions, your relationship with someone else or others, and or the environment around you that's triggering unwanted and unfavorable thoughts and emotions?

Not able to take new clients at this time- We believe in partnering with you to find the best way to help you deal with your daily stressors. If you could use someone that won’t share your thoughts with your friends and family, reach out to us and take a chance on getting to know a therapist that won’t go anywhere. Hear 2 Figure it Out, LLC is a private practice for counseling and conservatorship services. We started this business after the COVID-19 Pandemic continued after 2020. Seeing the impact it had on so many people’s mental health inspired us to help more.

Believe it or not you CAN make positive changes, you ARE resilient, and you are often STRONGER than you believe. If you are feeling stuck, struggling to find direction, in need understanding or someone to listen, and are thinking about making positive changes in your life then I am the therapist for you. I have a collaborative approach and seek to empower clients so that they may find solutions to their problems. As part of the therapeutic process I hope to enable clients to feel more confident and secure both internally and in relationships with others.

Hello! My name is Jacquelin Bessette, and I am a Licensed Masters Social Worker in the state of Connecticut. I attended Eastern Connecticut State University for my bachelors degree in Women and Gender Studies and the University of Connecticut for my masters degree in Social Work. I have several years of experience working in the mental health field with adolescents and adults in both inpatient and outpatient environments.

My recipe for therapy starts with three primary ingredients: a safe space, proven techniques and a plan tailored to fit each individual. Talking to a complete stranger about your struggles can be nerve wracking at first. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable with your therapist. So I create a warm, accepting space, free of judgement to help support your growth.

On the outside, everything seems great. On the outside, others see that you’re hard-working, accomplished, and a go-getter. But on the inside, you are struggling. You are in a rut. You are constantly anxious. Your inner critic is constantly pointing out where you are falling short or reminding you that you are not enough. It's exhausting. You give so much to others and are tired of coming last on your priority list. I can help. You don't have to suffer alone anymore. Change is possible.

“All life is an experiment. The more experiments you make, the better.” - Ralph Waldo Emerson. Hello! My name is Sarah Simmons and I'm a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who believes your life is an individualized journey that I would be honored and excited to explore with you. I primarily work with teens, adults, and couples who feel they struggle with anxiety, depression, stress, grief/loss, trouble communicating, low self-esteem, and suicidal ideation. I strive to collaborate with you to offer a compassionate, non-judgmental, and supportive space where we focus on your personally identified needs and goals.

Let's face it, therapy isn't always the easiest thing to begin. It requires being open and vulnerable with someone who you don't know yet, and can be doubly hard when you're thinking about opening up about your relationship. I make it my mission to create a safe, non-judgmental, and relaxed space to begin the therapeutic process of healing and growth. Over time, we work together to create goals that feel attainable and realistic for you and your partner or family system. Most of all, my goal is to make therapy feel enjoyable, meaningful, and maybe even fun!

You deserve to be happy. You deserve to have fulfilling and authentic relationships. Seeking therapy is the first step to healing so you can live your life to the fullest. And I thank you for considering me to be a part of your journey. So many factors in life can lead us to feeling unfulfilled in our lives and/or our relationships. Life transitions, relational challenges, low self esteem, anxiety, depression, work stress, traumatic experiences, multi generational cycles and not to mention the inevitable curve balls life throws at us. These are just a few of the many factors that impact every single one of us.

Feeling stressed? Are you struggling with feeling worried and having difficulty relaxing? Are you feeling more anxious than ever before? Perhaps you have many worries about too many different things and it feels difficult to manage. You might notice your heart is racing, your palms becoming sweaty, and feeling short of breath. Does worry keep you up at night trying to stay on top of that to do list? Today you are one step closer to feeling empowered to create a path toward well-being. I work with adults of all ages to explore personal strengths to help create positive changes, especially when working through life's difficulties.

I enjoy working with clients from all walks of life. Over the past 20 plus years I have seen thousands of clients with a variety of issues. I still am amazed by the resiliency of the human spirit and our ability to make shifts that create major results in our lives. Often people come overwhelmed thinking they need to make major changes, yet I have found that it is usually minor adjustments in our work together that lead to major changes in our daily life.

Life is challenging and difficult to negotiate. The goal of therapy is to identify and build on your strengths so we can better manage life's stressors. My goal is to help people achieve their dreams and goals. Your past doesn't have to be your present or future. In addition to providing treatment for those living with depression or anxiety, I also specialize in issues relating to infertility, and the Gifted/Talented individual.

Our lives are filled with many stressors including our family, careers and interpersonal relationships. I believe therapy should be a safe and open space to express your thoughts and feelings. I will work with you to create a safe and comfortable environment where you can achieve the goals you would like to set for yourself. I am trained in several evidenced based practices including TF-CBT, ARC and MATCH. I have extensive experience working in the mental health field in a variety of settings including a therapeutic day school, outpatient, residential and inpatient. I enjoy working with children, adolescents, adults and families.
