ADHD therapists and psychiatrists in Glastonbury, CT

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.

As a board-certified psychiatrist and mental health nurse practitioner, I believe prioritizing mental health is key to well-being, safety, and stability in life. Seeking help can be one of the hardest parts, so congratulations on taking that great step! I believe everyone has a unique story and deserves an individualized approach to care.

Hello! I believe therapy works best when it feels like a genuine partnership. I strive to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients can feel comfortable exploring challenges, building on their strengths, and working toward meaningful change. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to each person's unique experiences and goals. I draw from evidence-based practices, trauma-informed care, and years of experience helping individuals navigate mental health concerns, substance use challenges, life transitions, and emotional difficulties. My goal is to help clients gain insight, develop practical coping skills, and feel empowered to create lasting growth and healing

I am a dedicated and compassionate licensed independent clinical social worker with a Master's in Social Work from Boston University.

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!

With over 19 years of counseling experience, I understand how difficult it may be to take that first step to enter therapy. I believe that people are capable of making life changes, sometimes needing support and guidance. Oftentimes, natural supports surround us, we are just unaware of how to tap into them.
