Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Manchester, CT

As a therapist with 8 years of experience, I believe that therapy is a collaborative space where you can feel heard, understood, and supported as you navigate life’s challenges.

I specialize in working with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, and concerns related to life transitions. I’m here to help you better understand yourself, develop effective coping strategies, and create meaningful change.

My approach is compassionate, practical, and individualized to your needs.

I am a licensed professional counselor who has worked with teens for the last 4 years. I work with teens who experience difficulties navigating new transitions and need guidance to help themselves. I also have experience working with teens who have difficulties with ADHD, anxiety, depression, grief, OCD, and trauma.

Welcome to my page! I've been practicing clinical social work for 9 years. I graduated from Fordham University with a Masters in Social Work. My clinical experience ranges from individual therapy, group therapy, intensive outpatient therapy, to working with families in-home. My areas of specialty include working with patients with Anxiety, Depression, life transitions, and Borderline Personality D/O from ages 18-65+.

Taking the first step toward therapy can be difficult, but you don’t have to do it alone. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 16 years of experience providing therapy to children, adolescents, and adults. Throughout my career, I have worked in community mental health and held leadership roles overseeing outpatient mental health programs.

I specialize in helping individuals navigate trauma, anxiety, depression, ADHD, infertility, women’s issues, and life transitions. I believe that while our experiences shape us, they do not have to define us. I am trained EMDR and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) and tailor treatment to each person’s unique needs and goals.

With over 17 years of experience working with at-risk youth, I am dedicated to empowering individuals to overcome challenges and reach their full potential. My approach is rooted in person-centered therapy, focusing on empathy, respect, and collaboration to create a safe and supportive environment for growth. I am passionate about helping others build resilience, develop life skills, and achieve positive, lasting change.

I have extensive experience working with complex trauma, attachment issues, family, and spiritually and religiously-based trauma.

There are times in life when we feel stuck, lonely, anxious, or disconnected from ourselves. While these experiences can be painful, I believe they often serve as powerful catalysts for growth, healing, and transformation. Earning your trust and helping you establish a secure, empowering baseline for your care is an honor I hold deeply. Over my five years of practice as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I have found profound meaning in supporting adults and couples through their most difficult moments. I specialize in helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, eating disorders, OCD, and trauma. I am also fiercely committed to providing affirming care for the LGBTQIA+ community, offering a safe harbor for those seeking an inclusive, sex-positive space. It is a privilege to support people as they develop greater self-awareness, strengthen their resilience, and move toward a more authentic version of themselves.

Finding a therapist who truly gets your life can feel like a long search. One who sees more than a diagnosis, who doesn't need you to explain yourself before you can get to work. If you're part of the LGBTQ+ community, that search often comes with an extra layer: the quiet work of figuring out whether this therapist is actually safe, or whether you'll spend your sessions educating them. With me, you won't have to do that work.

I'm a licensed therapist with more than 22 years of experience in mental health and addiction treatment. I've worked in community mental health centers, psychiatric hospitals, correctional settings, and private practice. I've sat with people in some of the hardest moments of their lives and know how to meet them there without flinching.

My primary focus is LGBTQ+ individuals and couples. That includes navigating identity, coming out at any stage of life, relationship dynamics unique to queer and same-sex partnerships, internalized stigma, minority stress, and everything that comes with living authentically in a world that doesn't always make that easy. I also work with anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD, substance use and dual diagnosis, men's issues, and stress and burnout.

For over 20 years, I have had the privilege of sitting with people through some of life's hardest moments: depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, and the pain of racism and loss. My goal is to build a real connection with you, so you never feel alone in figuring this out. I'm here to support you on your journey of self-exploration and personal growth.

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.
