Bianca Torres

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Waterbury, CT


I believe that meaningful therapy begins with feeling safe, heard, and supported. My goal is to create a compassionate, non-judgmental space where individuals and families can explore challenges, build on their strengths, and move toward positive change.

I hold both a Bachelor’s degree and a Master’s degree in Social Work and have over five years of experience working directly with children and families. My professional background includes supporting children and caregivers through emotional, behavioral, and relational concerns, while collaborating with families to strengthen communication, coping skills, and overall well-being.

In addition to my work with children and families, I also have several years of experience supporting older adults, including assisting individuals and families with long-term care planning. This work has given me a deep appreciation for the emotional, practical, and relational challenges that can arise during later life transitions, caregiving roles, and decision-making processes.

I am passionate about supporting clients across the lifespan and helping individuals and families navigate change with greater clarity, resilience, and connection.

Hi, I’m Ashley, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 10 years of experience supporting children, adolescents, adults, and families. My professional experience includes residential treatment, in-home services, community-based programs, and school settings. I have worked with individuals experiencing a variety of emotional, behavioral, and relational concerns.

My areas of focus include anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, PTSD, grief, anger, emotional dysregulation, relationship concerns, parenting challenges (including parents struggling with managing ADHD & ASD (autism) Child development), self-esteem, and major life transitions. I also enjoy helping clients better understand themselves, strengthen their relationships, and break patterns that may no longer be serving them.

I believe therapy should be a place where you feel comfortable being your authentic self and supported as you work toward meaningful change.

Hi, I’m Chamin!

I bring over 25 years of experience to my work with individuals, couples, and groups, helping them move from feeling overwhelmed to truly empowered.

I founded Chamin Ajjan Psychotherapy to provide a warm, welcoming, and supportive space where clinical excellence meets compassionate care and a little pop culture when I can throw it in. We are the regional clinic for the National Social Anxiety Center providing evidence-based treatment that upholds the rigorous standards of the organization. I am dedicated to helping you navigate life's challenges with a collaboration rooted in deep experience and practical, effective tools.
