Welcome! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 25 years of experience supporting individuals and families across diverse clinical settings. My career began in group homes working with adolescents and adults living with chronic mental illness, followed by work with the Department of Children and Families, Visiting Nurse Association and Crisis Intervention through the hospital Emergency Department where I developed strong skills in assessment, stabilization, and systems navigation.
For the past 10 years, I have specialized in Integrated Behavioral Health within a primary care setting, collaborating closely with medical providers to deliver whole-person, accessible mental health care.
I earned my Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) from Marist College and my Master of Social Work (MSW) from Fordham University. I utilize a range of evidence-based and client-centered treatment modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), insight-oriented therapy, solution-focused therapy, and motivational interviewing. My work is grounded in helping clients build insight, develop coping strategies, and move toward meaningful, sustainable change.
Many of my clients come in carrying more than most people can see — anxiety that won't quiet down, grief that still feels fresh, or a past that keeps showing up in the present. I work with adults navigating depression, PTSD, substance use, and the kind of complicated emotions that don't fit neatly into words. I'm genuinely invested in your progress and am here to support you on your path towards living a more balanced life. I see clients across Connecticut via telehealth.
Whether you're navigating a major life change, working through anxiety that feels hard to shake, or taking steps toward recovery, you don't have to do it alone. I work with people who are ready to be honest about where they are, even when that's uncomfortable. My goal is to create a space where you can show up exactly as you are, without fear of judgment, and start building the life you actually want.
Hey all! My name is Jennifer. I’m a first-generation Latinx therapist, and I am no stranger to adversity. I specialize in supporting clients navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and self-esteem. I’m especially passionate about supporting first-generation adults navigating anxiety, identity, family expectations, relationships, and life transitions—while also welcoming anyone who is ready to grow, heal, and make positive changes in their life.
Most people don't have a relationship, anxiety, confidence, or self-worth problem. They have a pattern problem.
The way you relate to yourself, other people, and the world around you is often influenced by experiences you don't even realize are still affecting you. That's why insight alone isn't always enough to create lasting change.
Hi, I'm Lissette LaRue, a Licensed Professional Counselor, National Certified Counselor, and Certified Hypnotherapist with 15+ years of experience helping individuals and couples uncover and heal the deeper patterns driving emotional pain, relationship challenges, and repeated life struggles.
My work combines psychology, trauma-informed care, attachment theory, nervous system regulation, and mind-body approaches to help clients create healthier relationships, greater confidence, stronger self-trust, and lives that finally feel as good as they look.
I work with adults experiencing relationship concerns, trauma, anxiety, self-esteem issues, communication challenges, life transitions, and the lasting effects of childhood experiences.
Whether you're navigating dating, marriage, family relationships, or your relationship with yourself, we'll work together to create meaningful and lasting change.
