Welcome! My therapeutic style is supportive, solution focused, non judgmental and collaborative. I provide a safe space for you to engage in the a collaborative therapeutic process to meet your individual needs and goals.
I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor specializing in couples therapy, trauma, and substance use recovery with a twist. Clients call me their "hippie therapist" because I bring a decade of holistic training, yoga, meditation, Reiki, and mindfulness into my clinical work. I've spent my career in addiction and behavioral health, including leadership roles at Mountainside Treatment Center. I especially love working with high-performing professionals, healthcare providers, athletes, and military members who spend their lives caring for others and are finally ready to receive care themselves.
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 am an experienced behavioral health provider and health educator dedicated to treating patients with respect, dignity, and a focus on overall wellbeing, personal goals, recovery, and safety.
My professional background includes over 13 years as a nurse clinician and nurse practitioner for the Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services (DMHAS) treating adult patients. Additionally, I spent 5 years at MAAS in New Haven specializing in opioid and alcohol use disorders, and I have provided outpatient behavioral health treatment for adults of all ages at LifeBridge Community Services for over 5 years.
Hi, I’m Dr. Dani...and I’ll be honest with you from the start: I became a therapist because I believe people deserve a space where they can finally exhale. With over a decade of experience working with individuals, couples, and families, my background spans crisis intervention, family systems, and culturally responsive care.
I have a particular heart for women and couples who are carrying a lot... navigating stress, relationships, and life transitions...and doing it often without anyone really seeing them.
That changes here.
Are you an athlete or high-performer struggling with feelings of inadequacy? Do you battle anxiety or struggle with body image? Are you simply looking for happiness? I'm Michelle Solino, LPC, a licensed professional counselor in NJ, and CT specializing in anxiety, depression, eating disorders, disordered eating, and sports counseling.
Whether you're dealing with performance anxiety, body image issues, or life's complexities, I'm here to help you achieve well-being and personal growth.
Hi, I'm Ashley, a Licensed Professional Counselor and Reiki II practitioner. I believe that somewhere underneath the anxiety, the self-doubt, and the patterns that keep repeating, there is a version of you that already knows the way. My job isn't to fix you. It's to create a space steady enough that you can actually hear yourself. Together we get curious about the thoughts that won't quiet down, the emotions that feel bigger than the moment, the behaviors that keep showing up even when you don't want them to, and what all of it is actually trying to tell you. I bring tools into our work that help you understand what's happening in your mind and body when you're overwhelmed, so you can actually do something about it instead of just surviving it. But more than any method or modality, I show up as a real person walking alongside you, trusting that you are the expert on your own life.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Hartford
Searching for therapists in Hartford starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Hartford therapists may specialize in concerns like anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship challenges, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, training, and approach match what you want to address. Bios can also help you understand whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.
In a smaller city like Hartford, the number of nearby office options may be more limited than in larger metro areas. Virtual sessions can expand your choices while keeping local in-person care available when that format fits better. As you narrow your search, consider appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare communication style, session structure, and what the therapist says you can expect from working together.
Therapy in Hartford can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your out-of-pocket estimate before you book. Headway makes it easier to search for licensed therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, view real-time availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
