Therapists in Waterford, CT

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who has worked in the field since 2015. I have experience working with couples, individuals, families, children, and facilitated therapy groups. I view myself as a tool to assist clients along their life journey; humans are a work in progress. I also utilize a strength-based approach and use a variety of evidenced-based practices. I provide a safe and nonjudgmental space and use empathy, humor and validation to build therapeutic relationships with clients in order to support them in identifying and reaching their goals.

Life is difficult at times and we have all found ourselves in situations that are overwhelming. With more than 35+ years experience as a Clinical Psychologist, my goal is to help you use your inner strengths and resources to overcome your difficulties, to find new strategies to deal with challenges, and enable you to gain a more positive perspective on your life.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Couples Therapist, my passion lies in empowering individuals and couples to overcome life's challenges to achieve emotional well-being. You have the capacity to tap into your strength and resilience to maximize the transformative power of therapy. I am committed to providing a safe and non-judgmental space for individuals and couples to explore their thoughts, emotions, and relationships so that you can access your inherent strengths and resources from which you will experience growth and change.

My ideal client is someone who is currently lost or overwhelmed and wanting to come alive again after a major loss or transition. Or has been dealing with a physical illness, and now wants support in coming back into life in a new way. It can be easy to forget that we are not the lives we have created, we are so much more. Having help recognizing where you are going and why, and dealing with the problems that show up along the way can be necessary in looking at exactly what is happening, why they are happening, and what you want/need to change to make things so much easier to handle so you can bring in joy, peace, and your dreams.

Deciding to seek psychological services can be a difficult step. When looking for therapy, the right clinician/client match is essential. My goal is to respond to my clients with compassion, empathy, and in a non-judgmental way, as well as stay up-to-date with the most effective treatment interventions. With over 20 years of experience, have successfully treated people with low self-esteem, assertiveness difficulties, loss/grief, guilt, eating disorders, emotional eating, binge-eating, anxiety, panic, life transitions, divorce/separation, obsessive thinking, relationship struggles, "quarter-life crisis," and depression.

Accepting New Clients+ The "game-changers" for my clients are the "AHA" moments; the moments they find themselves thinking about something differently than before. That moment can change a person, and it can change their destiny. The majority of my clients are young adult females looking to understand what’s wrong with them… dating life, home life, work life… it all seems too overwhelming and there are more questions than answers. The aha moments come when we connect the dots between childhood experiences and current mind-set. There is nothing wrong with you; and what happened is not your fault.

Women are feeling the pressure to be perfect & to do it all now more than ever. We are dropping out of the workforce or working at our careers then working "the double shift" at home. You tell yourself that you wont reach your goals. You predict what will happen and constantly ask “but what if...” You feel like something is broken or missing. You don't feel good enough. Despite your accomplishments, you feel like a failure. You put other peoples needs first. These thoughts have taken over and keep you up at night. I am here to help.

Accepting New Clients! Sometimes in life it seems like nothing can go right, that one bad day turned into a week and now a year, your thoughts aren’t even making sense! Other times everything is going well, you couldn’t ask for a more “perfect” life but inside it doesn’t feel quite right.

Depressed? Anxious? Mood Dysregulation? Behavior Difficulties? Need limited Case Management? Need someone to coordinate with other providers? Over the past 25+ years, I realize that I am skill based. Practicing strategies and techniques almost guarantees the client will successfully manage their life despite what is happening around them, their behavioral health issues or personal challenges. My 10 years of active duty military services strengthens my ability to work with military spouses and their families. I have 18 years working with children and their families.

I’m Carleigh Hannah, LCSW and I’m here to help. My goal is to provide a safe place to explore current life challenges. I am here to root you on when things are going well, encourage you to look deeper into underlining meanings, support you through difficult life decisions and transitions. I treat ADHD, Anxiety disorders, Autism, Bipolar disorders, Depression, Personality disorders, Schizophrenia, PTSD. I am an ally to our LGBTQ+ community and have experience with educating and advocating for LGBTQ+ misconceptions.

Are you feeling stuck, defeated, and struggling to manage your or your child's emotions? It can be hard just to make it through the day. I know life is really hard and we are all facing challenging times. Taking that first step to ask for help can be difficult, you are not alone. I think everyone would be surprised at actually how many of us need and can use a little extra support, whether it be for yourself or your child. You don't have to continue to feel this way.

Are you looking for Behavior Therapy with a holistic, goals-driven, and values-oriented approach? Through the use of behavior-analytic principles, I support the development of active self-listening, self-compassion, grounding, psychological flexibility, and emotional regulation skills to better understand and manage thoughts, feelings, and actions and promote positive behavioral shifts. At Thriving Lives I support my clients to do more of the things that bring joy and growth and less of the things that are getting in the way! Currently working with adults, adolescents, children, and family units!

I believe in a holistic approach to therapy where the client is viewed as an individual, as well as an individual in their environment. This gives a better picture of who the client is, so that treatment can be tailored to the individual. I recognize that we are all different, therefore, there is not a “one size fits all” model to treatment.
