With two locations in Hartford and Cheshire, the Anxiety Disorders Center (Director: David Tolin, Ph.D.) provides outpatient, individual therapy for adults and children with anxiety disorders (including panic disorder, social anxiety disorder, specific phobias, separation anxiety disorder, and generalized anxiety disorder), obsessive-compulsive and related disorders (including obsessive-compulsive disorder, body dysmorphic disorder, hoarding disorder, trichotillomania, and skin-picking disorder), illness anxiety disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder, and school refusal/avoidance. In most cases, we provide individual cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT). CBT emphasizes teaching people how to feel less anxious. Whereas traditional psychotherapy often takes place over several years, CBT is designed to be a relatively brief treatment with distinct, tangible goals. The Anxiety Disorders Center is staffed by licensed psychologists who are experts in CBT for anxiety. As a clinical, research, and teaching facility, additional options may be available. Please visit our website to learn more about our program or to schedule an appointment for an initial assessment.

To seek therapy takes courage and curiosity. The process of therapy gives us the opportunity to explore the impact of the multiple systems with which we are connected- family, work, home, friends, community- in the context of an affirming relationship with the therapist. Through this process, we come to better understand how we have interacted with these systems over time. The strategies we have developed to navigate them successfully, and how these systems have impacted us, contributing to both opportunities and challenges. As a Marriage and Family Therapist, with experience working with individuals, couples, and families, I approach my work from a systemic and integrative perspective. Understanding that people are unique, complex, and influenced by multiple experiences in multiple contexts, what "works" for one person, may not "work" for another. Knowing what to do in our complex and demanding world can be difficult, at times, for anyone. If you would like to make a change, I am ready to help. Please give me a call.

*ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS* I applaud you in taking the first step! Life can take us down curvy roads that can be overwhelming and scary. Perhaps you're down or anxious - maybe you're unsure about the future of a relationship, or just feel that you aren't living the life you were meant to lead. Whatever your needs may be, why do it alone? If you allow me to take the journey with you, we can work together to combat and address the issues at hand. I use a client centered and strength based approach while applying Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution focused therapy, and Mindfulness based strategies and techniques.

I specialize in helping people restore health and balance back to their lives using a strength-based and solution focused approach. It’s my belief that everyone deserves to experience the best version of themselves no matter what conditions they may find themselves in. I’m offering video counseling at this time with a specific focus on assisting men with managing their stress, improving communication with their partners & families, expressing their needs and increasing their range of coping strategies. A lot of men find it difficult to reach out for emotional support, because the world they were raised in bombarded them with messages that men who showed emotions are weak. I am here to help individuals break that narrative, so that our good men of this generation can finally heal from the trauma passed down to them sold as “male culture.” I would be happy to help in anyway that I can. Feel free to reach out to me if you feel that I’d be a good fit for you.

I have a particular interest in working with children, couples and families. I use primarily a cognitive/behavioral approach in my work. I have training in dialectical behavior therapy. I also have extensive experience working with clients who experience problems with aggression. I feel that the most important element of any therapeutic work is the relationship with the therapist. Therapeutic techniques can only be effective if utilized in the context of an empathic therapeutic relationship.

Therapy is really about you. My approach is influenced by Person-Centered and Cognitive-Behavioral therapy. Basically, this means that you lead with what you’d like to discuss, I help to find connections between thoughts and behaviors, then together we discuss helpful tools, skills, or next steps. Whether you’re searching for peace, clarity, or healing, we will work towards your goal together. It is important to find a therapist that you connect with. Working together is more successful with a therapist you trust. I provide an unbiased, collaborative, open, and relaxed environment and strive for honest and direct communication. I specialize in working with depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, posttraumatic stress disorder, crisis intervention, stress, life transitions or adjustments, identity conflicts, pathological deviance, etc. I also specialize in working with the forensic population, those who have involvements or experiences with the legal system, the LGBTQIA population, etc. I applaud you for researching local therapists, because sometimes that first step—signing up for therapy—is the hardest one. When you’re ready, reach out to set up an appointment, and we can traverse the next steps together. I offer both in-person sessions as well as tele-health remote sessions.

I have successfully worked with adults and children, couples and families, with both common and complex needs. My approach focuses on experiential awareness and processing, while working through present day thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is holistic in that it views symptoms as attempts at coping.We work together establishing a calm place within you, through the enhancement of personal awareness, resources, and developing coping strategies; we then progress beyond coping skills, moving through the roots of old learning so that your change is lasting, and from the inside out. My experience includes working in both a psychiatric hospital for 27 years and local community mental health agencies. My training has moved me in the direction of mind-body psychotherapy approaches. I am family-systems oriented in thinking, and I tend to focus on helping clients with emotion regulation issues in practice. In addition to Marriage and Family therapy, I am trained in EMDR , IFS , and DBT; these approaches work well with various issues including anxiety, trauma/stress, impulsive behaviors, & mood disorders. Also EMDR has been successful with enhancing workplace performance, aiding in the reduction of performance anxiety, competition preparation, and psychological recovery from injury for athletes.

I approach each client with this in mind knowing what it takes to open up to another person.Each individual/couple comes to therapy with unique concerns/issues so I work with this in ensuring the treatment is geared specifically to the individual/couple.

As such, we work together to integrate your ideals and values into the treatment so that changes are easier to implement and maintain. My areas of specialty include working with individuals dealing with trauma, depression, anxiety, relationship struggles, grief and substance dependency/abuse. I work with adolescents/teens, emerging adults (18-25), and adults. In addition to psychotherapy, we offer psychological/educational assessments for a more thorough understanding of the individual.
