Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Glastonbury, CT

I understand how exhausting it can feel to be caught in the same patterns or unsure how to help someone you care about. I offer a calm, approachable, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard and supported. We will work together at a pace that feels right for you. Reach out when you are ready to begin.

I've spent my career working with people who are dealing with some of life's hardest circumstances — trauma, addiction, domestic violence, grief, chronic illness, and the day-to-day weight of anxiety and depression that doesn't announce itself. I bring both clinical training and real compassion to that work.

As a Black female therapist, I'm especially attuned to the cultural context that shapes how we experience stress, seek help, and heal. I specialize in anxiety, depression, PTSD, trauma, BPD, domestic violence, and substance use, and I work with adolescents, adults, and seniors across Connecticut.

My approach is practical and trauma-informed — I meet you where you are, not where I think you should be. You've already taken a step by being here. We can take the next ones together.

I am Dr. Michele Bullock, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Board Certified Counselor with over 25 years of experience helping individuals navigate their unique life journeys. As an Industrial-Organizational (I/O) Psychologist, I bring a rare depth of expertise that bridges personal wellness and professional development — supporting clients through career transitions, workplace challenges, leadership development, and major life changes. My approach is holistic and whole-person: I recognize that your well-being is shaped by every environment you move through. I would love to help you move forward with clarity, confidence, and purpose.

I believe therapy begins with meeting you where you are. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience supporting youth, families, adolescents, young adults, couples, and individuals of all genders. I have worked with clients navigating anxiety, depression, behavioral concerns, self-esteem challenges, life transitions, and the effects of domestic violence.

I earned my bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Mount Saint Mary College and my Master of Social Work from the University of Southern California. As someone originally from Jamaica, I value creating an inclusive space where your culture, identity, strengths, and experiences are respected.

Finding a therapist who genuinely understands your background, not just your diagnosis, can make the difference between therapy that feels like going through the motions and therapy that actually moves you.

I'm a bilingual Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP), and Certified in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (C-DBT), fluent in English and Hebrew. I'm also a Doctoral Candidate pursuing my DSW. I work with adolescents and adults navigating trauma and PTSD, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, identity, emotional regulation, and major life transitions.

Before private practice, much of my clinical work took place in crisis response, hospital-based care, community mental health, and other high-stress environments. That experience taught me how to sit with difficult things without becoming intimidated by them, while also recognizing that people are far more than the hardest things that have happened to them.

As a therapist, I'm warm, direct, collaborative, and genuinely curious about the person sitting across from me. I don't believe therapy should feel clinical for the sake of sounding clinical, and I don't believe my role is to simply tell you what you should do. I want to understand how you got here: the experiences that shaped you, the patterns you've developed, what those patterns may have helped you survive or manage, and whether they're still serving you now. From there, we can figure out together what you want to keep, what you want to change, and what moving forward can actually look like for you.
