Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Fairfield, CT

I get it. You’re tired of feeling stuck, exhausted, and like nothing’s really changing. You’ve been carrying a lot, and it’s starting to feel heavy. As a psychotherapist in practice for over 10 years, I’m passionate about walking alongside adults on their healing journey, especially those navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, and major life transitions. Whether you're a professional burning out, a veteran facing emotional pain, or a student trying to find your footing, I offer support rooted in compassion and real tools like EMDR and CBT. More importantly, I create a space where you can show up just as you are and feel truly seen, safe, and supported.

Hi there, I'm so happy that you reached out for support. I am Mackenzie Phelps, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I provide a supportive space for individuals to explore their emotions, strengthen self-awareness, and develop effective coping strategies to enhance their overall well-being. I work with individuals ages 12+. I obtained my MSW through Simmons University and have worked in a variety of settings including crisis intervention services, inpatient and outpatient behavioral health, and substance use programs.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Connecticut, and I work with individuals, families, and couples using relational and psychodynamic psychotherapy. We will explore how you can build greater confidence and self-esteem. You will develop new skill sets to process anxiety, depression, trauma, and family conflict. I work with individuals including children, teens, couples, and families to explore and treat anxiety, depression, ADHD, college preparedness, OCD, family conflict, court/legal process, life transitions, and trauma.

I’m Jonathan Del Valle, LCSW, a bilingual English and Spanish psychotherapist trained in EMDR. I work with adults navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, relationships, identity, and major life changes. I have a special interest in working with LGBTQIA+ and Latino communities, and my approach is warm, conversational, culturally responsive, and centered on helping you feel comfortable being yourself in therapy.

Alejandro Molina Rendon is a Clinical Psychologist graduated in Colombia and a Master in Social Work from New York University. He also has intensive trainings in Gestalt therapy and psychodrama from Argentinean institutions. He has international experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and older persons in the individually and group setting. He believes in the self-realization of the human potential and the pursuit of healthy and meaningful life styles.

I am a caring and supportive therapist with 10 years of experience helping people navigate mental health and substance use challenges. I have worked with individuals in both clinical and hospital settings, supporting people through difficult and often stressful times in their lives.

My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and judgment-free space where you can feel heard, understood, and respected. I work with each person as an individual and believe that therapy should be a place where you can talk openly, understand yourself better, develop healthy coping skills, and work toward the changes you want to make.

Whether you are struggling with your mental health, substance use, life changes, relationships, or simply feeling overwhelmed, you don't have to face it alone. I am here to listen, support you, and work with you toward your goals.

I specialize in helping adults with anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress, trauma, and complex trauma.

** My practice currently prioritizes clients in the Mid-Hudson Valley and those in direct service and helping professions, such as therapists, teachers, first responders, veterans, healthcare workers, and essential and frontline workers. **

I'm a trauma and EMDR therapist and LCSW licensed in New York and Connecticut, with eight years of experience rooted in crisis work. I've worked with families facing hardship and people in corporate and executive careers, and I have experience in disaster mental health and in critical incident stress management for first responders. I understand people under the highest levels of stress, both personally through my own experiences, and professionally.

I don't believe trauma has to be something we simply live with, or something that defines us. When we begin to understand our nervous system adapted to survive and what it needs to heal, we can help it learn something new. A self-regulation approach asks, "How do I calm myself down?" A capacity approach asks, "How can I build a nervous system that doesn't need to be calmed down every time life gets hard?" That second question is where I work.
