I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) offering support for families, adolescents and adults. I have practiced in several settings including school, group home, hospital, and outpatient mental health. I specifically worked with adolescent boys with complex trauma and problematic sexual behaviors. I completed my master’s degree in social work from Columbia University in New York.
Emotions can be overwhelming, especially when coupled with difficult memories from your past. Along with poor sleep, brain fog, and no energy, it can seem impossible to cope. Many people struggle with these symptoms whether it’s from depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, or difficult life transitions. Life can be hard and we all need help sometimes. I'm here to help you figure out what works best for you.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Nationally Certified Counselor. If someone in your life makes you feel guilty, confused, unloved, or stressed, I'm here to support you.
I work with courageous people healing from the trauma of toxic relationships and I assist them in developing assertive communication skills & unlocking the power behind setting healthy boundaries. Together, we can reclaim your self-worth and build a life filled with empowerment and resilience.
I understand that the decision to seek help for mental health needs can be a nerve-racking and scary process. When it comes to patient care, I am most passionate about the preservation of dignity and making my patients feel seen. I meet fear or nervousness with acceptance, encouragement, and knowledge.
I offer counseling that empowers you to navigate life's challenges with resilience and strength. You can access professional support wherever you are, without the need to travel or disrupt your busy schedule.
I believe that most people already have a deep understanding of themselves and what they need, it can just be difficult to access that understanding when we’re overwhelmed, stuck, or caught in patterns that no longer serve us.
As a systems therapist, I look beyond the individual to understand the relationships, experiences, and environments that shape how we think, feel, and respond. I’m particularly interested in helping people understand interpersonal conflict and the patterns that develop between us, whether with a partner, family member, friend, or colleague.
I am an incredibly empathetic therapist who's joy is to provide a safe space to my clients. I utilize a variety of counseling theories in order to provide services. I am engaging and inquisitive and enjoy invoking humor within the sessions when appropriate.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Bridgeport
Searching for therapists in Bridgeport starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Therapists can help with concerns such as anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, stress, and life transitions. As you compare options, look for someone whose listed specialties, training, and therapy approach match what you want to work on. Some therapists may note experience with cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, family therapy, or trauma-informed care in their profile.
Bridgeport has a local therapist community, but in-person availability may vary by neighborhood and schedule. Looking beyond nearby offices in areas like Black Rock, Downtown, and the East End can give you more options, and virtual appointments can expand access to licensed therapists across Connecticut. As you narrow your search, consider appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios can also help you understand their communication style, session structure, and areas of focus before you book.
Therapy in Bridgeport can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care more affordable. Headway helps you find therapists who take your insurance, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and compare options in one place. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
