ADHD therapists and psychiatrists in Connecticut

Have you ever felt like you’re doing your best to hold everything together, yet inside you feel overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or misunderstood? Maybe you overthink, shut down, react before you have time to process, or find yourself repeating patterns you know are no longer serving you. Anxiety, depression, intense emotions, difficult relationships, and life transitions can leave you feeling disconnected from yourself and unsure of how to move forward. Therapy can be a place to slow things down, explore what’s happening beneath the surface, and begin finding a healthier way forward.

Simple Intentions Counseling LLC looks for client's that are insightful, curious, and ready to explore the deeper layers of their emotional life. They may be struggling with anxiety, self-doubt, relationship patterns, or a persistent feeling of being “stuck.” They want clarity, self-acceptance, and tools to manage their emotions — but more than that, they want to understand why they feel the way they do. They’re not afraid to be challenged and are open to connecting their current struggles with earlier life experiences. They want lasting change, not quick fixes — and they’re ready to do the work.

I have extensive experience working with complex trauma, attachment issues, family, and spiritually and religiously-based trauma.

Hello, I’m Cara, a licensed clinical social worker with a master’s degree in social work. My approach is warm, down‐to‐earth, and collaborative. I believe therapy works best when it feels genuine and human. Together, we’ll explore your experiences, build on your strengths, and use practical, evidence‐based tools like coping strategies, mindset shifts, and boundary work. I make space for humor and real connection, combining these skills with deeper exploration of patterns, self‐compassion, and emotional insight to support lasting, meaningful change.

Hello and thank you for stopping by my page here on Headway. My name is Tara and I applaud your bravery for making it this far! It can feel intimidating and scary to choose a therapist and to begin therapy.

My Approach / Outlook

I want to let you know that, to me, you are a whole person - not an ill person. I recognize that you bring strengths, expertise, and wisdom to therapy sessions. I will not talk down to you, tell you what you "should" do, or judge you for your past or future choices, I will connect with you authentically and be 100% present in our time together.

Currently, I work with adults and older adults of alllllll identities and shapes via telehealth. Together, we will find what therapy approach(es) make sense to your mind and heart. Degrees and certifications do little good, if your therapy is not sensible and relatable for you.

My Background and Experience

In my 40s, I graduated with my Bachelor's degree (Sociology major) from ECSU (2016), then completed my Master's in Social Work degree from Simmons University (2018). Yes, it's true, we middle-aged folks retain good minds (with life experience to boot)!

I am certified in dialectical behavioral therapy and am fully trained in EMDR (certification pending). I also have 5 years' experience with cognitive behavioral therapy, internal family systems therapy, feminist therapy, compassion-focused therapy, and strengths-based therapy.
