Infertility Therapists in Mystic, CT

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.

I have been a psychotherapist for several decades and have been trained in a variety of therapy approaches: client-centered, psychodynamic, humanistic, relational, feminist/gender, and mindfulness. I work with individual adults and adolescents. I believe in the connections between our youth and our current situations. I see the psychotherapeutic process as a client's journey in which I have been invited to participate. My view of the goal of psychotherapy is to assist a person in making changes to his/her perceptions, interpretations, reactions and/or behavior in order to enhance the quality of that person's life.

Life can only be understood backwards, but it must be lived forward" -kierkegaard. Pursuing additional support is one of the first steps towards therapeutic healing and growth. Although everyone's journey is different, my commitment as a counselor is to help with self exploration, empowerment and ability to uncover the underlying answers within themselves. Sometimes the most important healing tool is having someone to confide in that is safe and non-judgmental; as a counselor my hope is that I can be that support who will work with you towards finding your solace.

I am here to meet the client where they are at in this moment. I will provide a safe and nurturing environment to hear my client's story. With compassion and in a collaborative effort we will out line the goals and objectives for treatment. These goals provide benchmarks for growth. As we reach these goals together we will reassess and make a determination about areas to focus and set new goals and objectives. Establishing trust and building a strong therapeutic alliance is the cornerstone of my practice.

I am a clinical social worker in private practice since 1996. I have extensive experience working with adults, adolescents, couples, and families experiencing emotional distress. My specialties include depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, grief and loss, job/school stress, life transition, and relationship issues. My goal is to empower clients to enact change by developing insight and clarity as to the origins and contributors to their distress. I work with clients to identify fears, guilt, destructive patterns, and family influences that are affecting their ability to live a healthy, satisfying life. My style is highly interactive, supportive, caring, and direct.
