Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Danbury, CT

Steady, relationship-based therapy for adults navigating anxiety, burnout, life transitions and trauma histories. Many of my clients appear capable on the outside but feel stuck or unsettled within. We begin with what feels most pressing and gradually explore the deeper patterns shaping your life, supporting lasting change.

I am a New York State licensed clinical social worker who specializes in cognitive behavioral therapy with extensive training in psychotherapy. I work with teens, adults, families and couples, treating issues including anxiety, depression, loss and addiction. In addition to a social work degree from New York University, I also trained at the Institute for Contemporary Psychotherapy in its Family and Couples Treatment therapy program.

As a Marriage and Family Therapist I strive to create a comfortable and safe environment for my clients to engage in the therapeutic process. I work to ensure your concerns are heard and will empower you as we navigate your challenges and work to strengthen your most meaningful relationships. Together we will assess what is contributing to your problems and develop healthy strategies for you to manage them and reach your goals.

I believe therapy works best when you feel heard, respected, and actively involved in the process. I work with adults who may be dealing with anxiety, depression, stress, changes in their physical health, or challenges that can affect how they see themselves and their relationships. I also have a particular interest in working with men's mental health and creating a space where clients can talk openly without feeling judged. My style is warm, open-minded, and participatory, and I want therapy to feel like something we are working through together—not something being done to you. You can expect me to listen carefully, ask thoughtful questions, and help you identify practical steps that fit your goals and your life.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 16 years of experience. I have a Doctorate in Social Work. I have focused primarily on working with children, adolescents, and their families throughout my career. For me, therapy is a collaborative process and we will work together to accomplish your goals. Anything is possible, sometimes we just need help to get things jump-started.

I believe therapy should feel supportive, practical, and empowering. Clients often describe me as warm, direct, and easy to talk to. I work with adults who want to better understand their emotions, patterns, and relationships, and I focus on helping clients build skills they can actually use in daily life. You don’t have to have everything figured out to start—just a willingness to show up.

I am the Founder of EQ Therapy (eqtherapy.co), a private practice designed for high-performing clients. I also teach at NYU in their graduate mental health counseling program. My dissertation at Johns Hopkins focused on the mental health experience of intercollegiate student-athletes. I supervise therapists at EQ Therapy who are accepting new clients for individual and couples therapy. If you're a couple, college student, industry leader, entrepreneur, or athlete, schedule a session with with me today!

I have extensive experience working with complex trauma, attachment issues, family, and spiritually and religiously-based trauma.

I am ready to listen and to help you in any way I can. I have helped many people reduce anxiety and depression and I would like to help you as well. I have worked with college students, new moms, men, people dealing with work/life balance, grief and loss and older adults who are going through various issues such as struggles with their adult children and health issues. Let's turn some of those tears into laughter. Let's talk.

My passion is helping women heal the parts of themselves that are keeping them from being truly happy through a trauma-informed lens. I believe we all have everything we need inside ourselves, and with guidance and support, we can uncover our true power and live the life we desire.
