Bipolar disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Connecticut

I am a licensed Clinical Psychologist, owner of Adrienne Allen, LLC, and Faculty Member of Yale School of Medicine. I offer therapeutic services for adolescents and adults suffering from depression, anxiety, trauma, grief and loss, and psychosis. My practice also offers psychological testing services including neuropsychological testing and risk assessments (e.g. violence, psychosexual, and suicide risk assessments).

I am a U.S. Navy veteran that came to therapy late in life after a successful career in Tech. I am very analytical but also empathic, compassionate and humorous.

I have nearly a decade of experience in the mental health field. I combine compassion and my clinical expertise to support the clients I serve. My goal is to help clients navigate and overcome their struggles to support and help regain stability in their lives.

I value building a trusting, authentic relationship with each client. It’s important for clients to feel and recognize the growth and progress that naturally emerge through the process. I believe therapy works best when you feel heard, supported, and empowered every step of the way.

Looking for a therapist who'll be honest with you — not just agreeable? I offer direct, compassionate care, all from the comfort of wherever you are. I'll validate what you're feeling when it needs to be heard, and gently challenge you when it's time to look at things differently. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, we'll work together to reshape the narratives keeping you stuck and help you see your life through a new lens.

As a clinician, I enjoy working with everyone in all phases of life helping in building self-esteem, managing addiction, trauma, self-discovery, medication management, anger management, re-establishing one's dreams/purpose, building/strengthening relationships one has with self, partners or family systems.

I have worked with foster children, young adults, primary care staff and patients, those who struggled with substance abuse in a methadone clinic, provided supervision to non-licensed social workers in the hospital.

I welcome the opportunity to meet with you for a consultation to see if working together would be a great match like a grilled cheese or peanut butter sandwich.

Best of luck on your journey to health and wellness.

Welcome! I’m Tameko, and I’m thrilled to invite you on a transformative journey toward greater well-being and fulfillment. In our work together, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of the root causes of your struggles, allowing you to see your challenges in a new light. Therapy is not just about addressing pain; it’s also about equipping you with valuable skills to enhance your self-confidence and resilience. I’m committed to providing a supportive environment where we can collaboratively explore these aspects, empowering you to break through barriers and build a more fulfilling life.

I often work with people who appear to be holding things together on the outside, while internally feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or disconnected. You may have gone through experiences that still live in your body, or you might notice patterns in your life that you don’t fully understand but feel stuck in. If you’ve walked through substance use and recovery, you may find yourself in a season where staying sober isn’t the hardest part anymore—it’s the deeper emotional and relational work that feels heavy. If any of this resonates, you don’t have to navigate it alone.

I work with young adults and adults who are ready to slow down, get honest, and engage in meaningful therapeutic work at a pace that feels safe. Many of the people I support are navigating anxiety, trauma, shame, relationship stress, or major life transitions. Others come to therapy after years of surviving and are now ready to understand themselves more fully, build healthier patterns, and experience a deeper sense of emotional freedom.

My approach to therapy is collaborative and relational. I believe healing happens when you feel seen, supported, and empowered—not rushed or fixed. My work is trauma-informed and integrates evidence-based practices with a focus on helping you reconnect with yourself in a more grounded and compassionate way. If you’re looking for a therapist who will meet you where you are and walk alongside you as you do the deeper work, I would be honored to support you.
