If you've ever felt like your brain works a little differently — constantly moving, questioning, or feeling things more deeply than you know what to do with — you're not alone, and you're in the right place. I work with children, teenagers, and young adults who are navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, and the pressures that come with just trying to figure life out. Many of my clients arrive feeling overwhelmed, misunderstood, or stuck in cycles of self-doubt and exhaustion. Whatever brings you here, I want you to know that what you're experiencing makes sense — and things really can get better.

Roman Stange

Therapist

Virtual • Connecticut


Hi, I’m Roman, a Licensed Professional Counselor in Connecticut with eight years of clinical experience in the United States and Latin America. I support people from many backgrounds who are navigating trauma, domestic violence, anxiety, depression, abuse, narcissistic abuse, ADHD, and immigration-related challenges. These experiences have deepened my understanding of how relationships, culture, and environment can shape the way we see ourselves and the world. The most common feedback I get from clients is that I am relatable, caring, and easy to talk to. I treat people like real people, not just a list of symptoms or problems. Building a strong, trusting connection is an important part of the process that I take very seriously, aiming to engage in co-created, and transparent collaboration with my clients.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in New Haven

Searching for therapists in New Haven starts with understanding what kind of support fits your needs. You may want help with anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, or work stress. As you compare therapists, look for training and specialties that match what you want to address. A therapist’s profile can show whether they use approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or acceptance and commitment therapy.

New Haven has many mental health care options, but local office availability can vary by neighborhood and schedule. If in-person New Haven therapy near Fair Haven, Wooster Square, Downtown, or The Hill has limited openings, virtual sessions can expand your options with Connecticut-licensed therapists. Beyond specialty, consider appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can help you understand each therapist’s style, session structure, and approach to care.

Therapy in New Haven can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated out-of-pocket expense before you book. Headway helps you find New Haven counseling and therapy options that match your preferences, schedule, and insurance plan. You can browse therapists, review bios, check cost estimates, and book directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
