Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Manchester, CT

I’m a bilingual (Spanish-English), bicultural Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and therapist supporting teens, college students, young adults, and adults navigating anxiety, stress, depression, life transitions, and cultural or identity-related concerns.

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.

Twenty-five years in this field — across inpatient units, outpatient programs, and private practice — means I've sat with people in virtually every kind of difficulty. That depth of experience shapes how I show up: grounded, unhurried, and genuinely confident that change is possible, even when it doesn't feel that way yet.

I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, ADD/ADHD, stress, and major life transitions. I bring both clinical rigor and real human warmth to the work — because neither alone is enough.

I trained at Hunter College School of Social Work and have built my practice around one belief: that insight without practical tools doesn't get people very far, and tools without insight don't stick. We'll work on both.

Welcome to Stem Wellness! My name is Stella Stempel, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and a Psychologist. In over 10 years of private practice, I worked with individuals, couples, and families. My approach is consistent, incremental change coupled with healthy thoughts that leads to a more satisfying life. Changing the way we act affects the way we feel and the way we view ourselves. When working with me, you are guided towards intentional living and healthy thought processes.

Are you or your teen looking for a warm environment to explore feelings, build coping skills, and navigate life transitions? If so, we might be a good fit! I have experience working with individuals on the autism spectrum, those with chronic medical conditions, college students, people navigating life changes, and LGBTQIA+ folks.

My name is Wendy Hagen, and I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW).

I believe therapy should feel both comfortable and useful in your everyday life. We’ll talk about what’s happening, but we’ll also work on practical skills you can use between sessions. I want you to feel comfortable being yourself, knowing you’ll be met with compassion, honesty, and without judgment.

There may be difficult conversations, moments when something finally clicks, and probably some humor along the way. I’ll listen, offer perspective, and gently challenge you when it may help. My goal is for you to leave with greater clarity, confidence, and tools you can actually use as you navigate life.

I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to helping individuals feel heard, understood, and supported throughout their mental health journey. I provide compassionate, individualized care for adolescents and adults experiencing concerns such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, OCD, bipolar disorder, and other mental health challenges.

My approach combines comprehensive psychiatric evaluation, medication management, and evidence-based therapeutic interventions. I believe treatment should be collaborative—not simply about prescribing medication. I take time to understand your symptoms, experiences, concerns, and goals so that we can develop a treatment plan that makes sense for you.

My 18 years of experience in this field enables me to address a wide range of patient needs. I am committed to providing flexible, nonjudgmental, and culturally sensitive care to a diverse patient population. From the time of the first appointment (and consistently thereafter), the patient and I will review their reasons for seeking care, discuss current challenges and stressors, and identify treatment goals. This information guides my formulation of an individualized treatment plan tailored to the patient’s specific needs and objectives.
