I believe therapy should feel supportive, practical, and empowering. Clients often describe me as warm, direct, and easy to talk to. I work with adults who want to better understand their emotions, patterns, and relationships, and I focus on helping clients build skills they can actually use in daily life. You don’t have to have everything figured out to start—just a willingness to show up.

I believe therapy works best when you feel heard, respected, and actively involved in the process. I work with adults who may be dealing with anxiety, depression, stress, changes in their physical health, or challenges that can affect how they see themselves and their relationships. I also have a particular interest in working with men's mental health and creating a space where clients can talk openly without feeling judged. My style is warm, open-minded, and participatory, and I want therapy to feel like something we are working through together—not something being done to you. You can expect me to listen carefully, ask thoughtful questions, and help you identify practical steps that fit your goals and your life.

Happy patient looking away

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 Newtown

Searching for therapists in Newtown starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, stress, or life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for specialties and training that match what you want to work on. A therapist’s profile can also show their approach, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, person-centered therapy, trauma-informed care, or family therapy.

In a smaller city like Newtown, local appointment options may be more limited than in larger Connecticut markets. Virtual therapy can expand your search while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in Connecticut. As you narrow your options, consider appointment times, therapy on weekends, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can help you understand how each therapist structures sessions and communicates with the people they support.

Therapy in Newtown can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. You can browse therapists, review profiles, compare virtual and in-person availability, and book directly when you’re ready.

If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.

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