ADHD therapists and psychiatrists in Southbury, CT

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 and nonjudgmental place to work through whatever they are carrying. If that sounds like where you are, reach out.

I am the Founder of EQ Therapy (eqtherapy.co), a private practice designed for high-performing clients. I also teach at NYU in their graduate mental health counseling program. My dissertation at Johns Hopkins focused on the mental health experience of intercollegiate student-athletes. I supervise therapists at EQ Therapy who are accepting new clients for individual and couples therapy. If you're a couple, college student, industry leader, entrepreneur, or athlete, schedule a session with with me today!

My name is Laura and I am here to help you find peace and healing in your life. I studied clinical social work at Boston College. Over my career I have worked with people facing difficult life changes, anxiety, depression, trauma, chronic illness, parenting difficulties, grief among many other challenges. I have a specialty working with those with type 1 diabetes, or those parenting a child with type 1 diabetes.

You may be feeling overwhelmed by life’s challenges exacerbated by systems of oppression, personal and professional relationships, or unhelpful patterns. You may simply be craving peace, joy, and fulfilling relationships with others. Regardless of what is bringing you to treatment, we can develop a plan to meet your individual goals.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) offering support for families, adolescents and adults. I have practiced in several settings including school, group home, hospital, and outpatient mental health. I specifically worked with adolescent boys with complex trauma and problematic sexual behaviors. I completed my master’s degree in social work from Columbia University in New York.

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.

Annemarie creates a safe space for clients to explore, heal, and grow at their own pace. She will sit with you in discomfort, laugh with you, and collaborate with you throughout your therapeutic journey.

I regularly work with individuals facing a variety of life's diverse challenges including anxiety/ panic, family-of-origin concerns, depression, maternal mental health, transition to parenthood, trauma, grief/ loss, sexual issues, and career related concerns. I also have a specialization in sex and relationship therapy. Please note, I do not provide couple or family therapy services on insurance as these forms of therapy are not recognized by insurances. If you'd like couple or family services, I provide out of network services and can also provide a sliding scale based on your income/ genuine financial need.

My clients are often seeking a combination of clarity, coping skills, and in general -- more ease and happiness in their daily life. I also have a unique specialization in "relationship therapy for one" where we unpack what might be keeping you stuck or unhappy when it comes to your overall relationship health/ satisfaction.

I have been a licensed therapist for over a decade and received my training at state of the art educational institutes including Syracuse University and other hospital and outpatient centers across NY and Manhattan. I have also sought out ongoing participation in professional clinical consultation groups with some of the most influential therapists and thought leaders of our time. These varied and diverse professional training experiences enable me to provide the best possible care to each client I serve. In addition, I also provide training and mentorship for new therapists looking to specialize in sex and relationship health.
