Therapist

Virtual • Connecticut


My clients are the “overthinkers” in the world...with big feelings that are hard to explain. They feel misunderstood, lonely and isolated while striving to please others at the expense of themselves. They’re exhausted, overworked, and over-stressed, feeling like they’re never enough. They have a vision for life, but aren’t sure how to bring it together, especially after a life-changing event. They're also eager for change.

Does this sound like you? If so, I warmly welcome you to my practice.

My therapeutic method is tailored to fit your temperament and individual experience. You may be facing a combination of personal, social, and institutional adversity. Discomfort may be unavoidable, but you are not alone; I can help you transform hardship or tragedy into resilience. My process is effective; it evolves as you do. If you experience negative feelings like inadequacy, grief, or shame, I can help you understand the origin of the discomfort and make changes toward ease. Sometimes, worry can be helpful; other times, anxiety and depression lie to us. Having worked in both economically-strained and prosperous communities, I have seen the impact of trauma and neglect on various people. I also understand being a white male can insulate me against the prejudice and discrimination commonly experienced by people of color, women, and the LGBTQ community; I trust my client’s experiences and take responsibility for my blind spots.

Living with ADHD, anxiety, or depression is exhausting — especially when you're trying to hold everything together at the same time. You deserve a provider who meets you where you are and builds a plan that actually moves you forward.I'm Zinny Ezete, a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with licenses in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut. I specialize in medication management and psychiatric care for teenagers and adults dealing with ADHD, anxiety disorders, and depression.

I've worked with patients at every level of complexity, which means I bring both depth and flexibility to your care.I'm a good fit for you if:

— You've been struggling with ADHD that affects your focus, relationships, or career

— Anxiety is running your decisions or keeping you up at night

— Depression has been dulling your life and you're ready for something to actually change

— You want a provider who is thorough, honest, and treats you like an intelligent adultI offer telehealth appointments in NY, NJ, and CT and am currently accepting new patients.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Westport

Finding therapists in Westport starts with understanding what kind of support fits your needs. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, work stress, or a major life change. As you compare Westport therapists, look for listed specialties that match what you want to work on. You can also review therapy approaches, such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), trauma-informed care, or other methods noted in a therapist’s bio.

Westport has local therapy options, but appointment availability may vary in smaller markets. Virtual therapy can give you more choice while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Connecticut. As you narrow your search, consider whether you prefer in-person care near Westport, virtual sessions, evening availability, or a therapist who offers a free phone consultation. Reading each profile can help you understand how a therapist structures sessions, communicates, and supports people with needs like yours.

Therapy in Westport can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose from therapists who are accepting new patients. Browse profiles, compare fit, and book directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
