Angellina Swart, LCSW is a social worker who has been in practice for six years. She is passionate about helping people access their strengths to overcome anxiety,
depression, and substance use disorders. Although she mainly works with adults, she does have experience working with children. She prefers to be authentic with her
clients to make them feel more comfortable and welcome in the therapeutic setting. She incorporates how external systems (family, work, policy, etc.) can affect a client’s well-
being and impact a person’s mental health.
For over 20 years, I have had the privilege of sitting with people through some of life's hardest moments: depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, and the pain of racism and loss. My goal is to build a real connection with you, so you never feel alone in figuring this out. I'm here to support you on your journey of self-exploration and personal growth.
Finding a therapist who truly gets your life can feel like a long search. One who sees more than a diagnosis, who doesn't need you to explain yourself before you can get to work. If you're part of the LGBTQ+ community, that search often comes with an extra layer: the quiet work of figuring out whether this therapist is actually safe, or whether you'll spend your sessions educating them. With me, you won't have to do that work.
I'm a licensed therapist with more than 22 years of experience in mental health and addiction treatment. I've worked in community mental health centers, psychiatric hospitals, correctional settings, and private practice. I've sat with people in some of the hardest moments of their lives and know how to meet them there without flinching.
My primary focus is LGBTQ+ individuals and couples. That includes navigating identity, coming out at any stage of life, relationship dynamics unique to queer and same-sex partnerships, internalized stigma, minority stress, and everything that comes with living authentically in a world that doesn't always make that easy. I also work with anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD, substance use and dual diagnosis, men's issues, and stress and burnout.
I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor specializing in couples therapy, trauma, and substance use recovery with a twist. Clients call me their "hippie therapist" because I bring a decade of holistic training, yoga, meditation, Reiki, and mindfulness into my clinical work. I've spent my career in addiction and behavioral health, including leadership roles at Mountainside Treatment Center. I especially love working with high-performing professionals, healthcare providers, athletes, and military members who spend their lives caring for others and are finally ready to receive care themselves.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience helping individuals manage depression, anxiety, and life’s challenges. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and self-care strategies, I help clients identify stressors and develop tools for lasting change.
Oh hi! My name is Britney Fulp, LCSW and I am a therapist with 10 years of experience. I graduated from Winthrop University with my MSW. I believe every person has inherent worth and deserves a therapist they can truly connect with. I know how challenging it is to take the first step to mental wellness, but I am so privileged to partner with you for your journey.
Welcome to my page! I've been practicing clinical social work for 9 years. I graduated from Fordham University with a Masters in Social Work. My clinical experience ranges from individual therapy, group therapy, intensive outpatient therapy, to working with families in-home. My areas of specialty include working with patients with Anxiety, Depression, life transitions, and Borderline Personality D/O from ages 18-65+.
Many of my clients come in carrying more than most people can see — anxiety that won't quiet down, grief that still feels fresh, or a past that keeps showing up in the present. I work with adults navigating depression, PTSD, substance use, and the kind of complicated emotions that don't fit neatly into words. I'm genuinely invested in your progress and am here to support you on your path towards living a more balanced life. I see clients across Connecticut via telehealth.
Taking that first step toward mental health care can feel like a lot, and I want to make it easier. I offer telehealth appointments in Connecticut, and I bring over three years of community mental health experience to every session. Whether you are navigating anxiety, working through depression, or healing from trauma, I meet you where you are and help you build a plan that fits your actual life. My approach is warm, practical, and focused on what works. I am here to help you move forward, one step at a time.
