I believe we all carry an inner resilience that can be activated and drawn on when life gets hard. My job is to understand how you see yourself and how you see what is in front of you, and then work alongside you from there. I see adults navigating depression, anxiety, PTSD, grief, and substance use, as well as people looking for a steady, nonjudgmental place to work through whatever they are carrying. If that sounds like where you are, reach out.

Therapist

I am a caring and supportive therapist with 10 years of experience helping people navigate mental health and substance use challenges. I have worked with individuals in both clinical and hospital settings, supporting people through difficult and often stressful times in their lives.

My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and judgment-free space where you can feel heard, understood, and respected. I work with each person as an individual and believe that therapy should be a place where you can talk openly, understand yourself better, develop healthy coping skills, and work toward the changes you want to make.

Whether you are struggling with your mental health, substance use, life changes, relationships, or simply feeling overwhelmed, you don't have to face it alone. I am here to listen, support you, and work with you toward your goals.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Connecticut


Here's the thing I've learned after years of doing this work, and living it myself: you don't need to have it all figured out before you show up. I grew up dealing with my own anxiety, trauma and stress, and I remember what it felt like not having anyone to really talk to. That's a big part of why I do this. I wanted to be the person I needed back then, for my patients now. I hold a doctorate in psychiatric mental health nursing and spent years in outpatient care getting to know the struggles that are so easy to hide and so hard to carry alone. These days I work with adults across Connecticut via telehealth, focused on anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and the everyday weight that builds up. My approach is simple: to give you a space to be yourself and work with you toward something that actually feels better.

Brittany Busser

Brittany Busser

Therapist

Virtual • Connecticut


I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master’s degree in Social Work from Fordham University. My background includes both hospital social work and correctional mental health.

I’ve spent much of my career helping people and families navigate some of life’s most difficult moments—from medical crises and unexpected trauma to serious illness, end-of-life decisions, and mental health challenges. In hospital settings, including the Emergency Department and ICU, I often helped families navigate overwhelming situations, connect with resources, and advocate for themselves and their loved ones.

Working in a COVID ICU especially shaped how I understand stress, trauma, family systems, and empathy. It taught me that when one person is struggling, the entire family can be affected.

I later brought that experience into correctional mental health, where I provide counseling, crisis intervention, assessment, and support.

I work primarily with adults experiencing anxiety, trauma/PTSD, depression, grief, life transitions, and family stress.I bring both professional experience and a very human perspective to therapy, with the goal of creating a space where you can feel understood, supported, and comfortable being yourself.
