I have an engaging approach and provide a safe space for vulnerability and offer both faith and evidenced based treatment modalities.
If you're navigating depression, anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, or any of the many things that can weigh on you, you deserve a clinician who takes your history seriously and works with you — not around you. That's what I aim to be. I'm a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with more than 25 years of experience treating adolescents (12+) and adults, and I earned my Doctor of Nursing Practice from the University of Massachusetts Amherst. Whether medication is part of the picture or not, my goal is to help you understand what's going on and find a path forward that fits your life.
I’m a bilingual (Spanish-English), bicultural Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and therapist supporting teens, college students, young adults, and adults navigating anxiety, stress, depression, life transitions, and cultural or identity-related concerns.
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.
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.
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.
I have extensive experience working with complex trauma, attachment issues, family, and spiritually and religiously-based trauma.
Are you living the life you want? Are you feeling overwhelmed, stressed, anxious, or depressed? This is the first step in the right direction towards positive change. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Doctor of Social Work (DSW) who is dedicated to supporting others who are challenged with life stressors, life transitions, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and relational concerns.
Alejandro Molina Rendon is a Clinical Psychologist graduated in Colombia and a Master in Social Work from New York University. He also has intensive trainings in Gestalt therapy and psychodrama from Argentinean institutions. He has international experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and older persons in the individually and group setting. He believes in the self-realization of the human potential and the pursuit of healthy and meaningful life styles.
As a board certified psychotherapist, I believe prioritizing mental health is key to happiness and stability in life. Seeking help can be one of the hardest parts, so congratulations on taking that step! I’ve been practicing for 10 years, I work with a plethora of inter-generational clients aged 21-90 who are struggling with anxiety and depression and trauma.
As a chaplain, I take a psycho-spiritual approach and work with clients assisting with intercultural issues, blended family dynamics, religiosity challenges and grief & loss.
