Hi! I’m Katie, and I’m a licensed psychotherapist helping people create a life they love. Before becoming a therapist, I worked in publishing at Penguin Random House and previously ran a jewelry line carried in over 250 stores nationwide. After earning my master’s from the Crown Family School of Social Work, I completed my clinical training at UChicago Medicine and LifePath Therapy Associates. Today, I use a combination of CBT, Motivational Interviewing, and Narrative Therapy to support C-suite executives, entrepreneurs, young professionals, writers, and anyone navigating uncertainty to create meaningful change.
Diana Lankenau has a Master of Science in Nursing from Florida State University and Chamberlain University. She has a Bachelor's in nursing from University of Miami. BA in Psychology from Florida International University. She is Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) and Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP-BC).
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+.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Nationally Certified Counselor. If someone in your life makes you feel guilty, confused, unloved, or stressed, I'm here to support you.
I work with courageous people healing from the trauma of toxic relationships and I assist them in developing assertive communication skills & unlocking the power behind setting healthy boundaries. Together, we can reclaim your self-worth and build a life filled with empowerment and resilience.
I’m Jose Garcia, a licensed therapist (LICSW, CCM) with over a decade of experience helping adults navigate challenges like anxiety, depression, substance use, and life transitions. I provide a supportive, culturally sensitive, and bilingual environment to help clients feel understood and empowered to grow.
Finding a therapist who genuinely understands your background, not just your diagnosis, can make the difference between therapy that feels like going through the motions and therapy that actually moves you.
I'm a bilingual Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP), and Certified in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (C-DBT), fluent in English and Hebrew. I work with adolescents and adults navigating trauma and PTSD, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, identity, emotional regulation, and major life transitions.
Before private practice, much of my clinical work took place in crisis response, hospital-based care, community mental health, and other high-stress environments. That experience taught me how to sit with difficult things without becoming intimidated by them, while also recognizing that people are far more than the hardest things that have happened to them.
As a therapist, I'm warm, direct, collaborative, and genuinely curious about the person sitting across from me. I don't believe therapy should feel clinical for the sake of sounding clinical, and I don't believe my role is to simply tell you what you should do. I want to understand how you got here: the experiences that shaped you, the patterns you've developed, what those patterns may have helped you survive or manage, and whether they're still serving you now. From there, we can figure out together what you want to keep, what you want to change, and what moving forward can actually look like for you.
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.
Life can sometimes feel heavy, confusing, or simply different than you expected. There are moments when we feel overwhelmed, disconnected, anxious, or unsure of what comes next. Therapy can offer a place to pause, breathe, and feel supported without judgment.
I believe you deserve a space where you can be yourself, tell your story, and feel genuinely heard. My approach is warm, compassionate, and collaborative. I meet you where you are and work alongside you to better understand what you're experiencing, build on the strengths you already have, and find ways to move forward.
Whether you are working through anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, or simply feeling stuck, you don't have to walk through it alone.
I am a bilingual (Spanish) licensed mental health counselor with more than 25 years of experience helping adults and couples. My career began in Buenos Aires, Argentina, where I earned my PhD and worked as a licensed psychologist. After moving to the US, I completed a Master’s in mental health counseling at the University of Miami and became licensed to practice in Connecticut.

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.
