I work primarily with women who are navigating anxiety, stress, relationships, life transitions, or the effects of difficult experiences. You may be someone who thinks deeply and cares deeply, but finds yourself stuck in patterns you understand intellectually but have trouble changing. I bring warmth, curiosity, honesty, and a little humor to therapy. You don't need to have everything figured out before we begin. We can start with where you are and figure things out together.

Taylor Garff

Taylor Garff

Therapist

Virtual • Connecticut


Hi, I’m Taylor Garff, a licensed therapist and the founder of Inner Heart Therapy. I work with adults who are navigating anxiety, stress, and identity, especially folks in the LGBTQ+ community or anyone feeling overwhelmed by life’s demands.

I’m someone who believes therapy should feel like a soft place to land, not another thing you have to “get right.” My clients tell me they appreciate my warmth, humor, and ability to hold space for both the hard stuff and the hope. I’ll meet you with curiosity, compassion, and no pressure to be anything other than fully human.

In our work together, we might explore your anxious thoughts, practice ways to feel safer and more grounded in your body, or untangle patterns that keep you stuck. I use a mix of tools, like cognitive-behavioral therapy, nervous system regulation, and the Safe and Sound Protocol, to support you in finding more ease, clarity, and connection in your life.

If you’ve ever felt like you had to explain or defend your experiences, I want you to know you won’t have to do that here. This is a space where all of you is welcome.

I’m Aditi Rai, LMHC-D, and the founder of Aura of Hope Psychotherapy, a New York–based telehealth practice supporting adults navigating anxiety, self-doubt, and the lasting impact of family and relational wounds. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with clients from diverse backgrounds who are ready to understand themselves more deeply and create meaningful change.

I care deeply about creating a space that feels safe, genuine, and free of judgment. Clients often describe me as warm, grounded, and easy to talk to. My role is to help you feel seen and supported as we explore what’s been heavy—while helping you reconnect with your inner strength, confidence, and capacity for healing.

Dr. Truc Vuu

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Connecticut


Here's the thing I've learned after years of doing this work, and living it myself: you don't need to have it all figured out before you show up. I grew up dealing with my own anxiety, trauma and stress, and I remember what it felt like not having anyone to really talk to. That's a big part of why I do this. I wanted to be the person I needed back then, for my patients now. I hold a doctorate in psychiatric mental health nursing and spent years in outpatient care getting to know the struggles that are so easy to hide and so hard to carry alone. These days I work with adults across Connecticut via telehealth, focused on anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and the everyday weight that builds up. My approach is simple: to give you a space to be yourself and work with you toward something that actually feels better.

Happy patient looking away

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 Connecticut

Searching for therapists in Connecticut starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want help with. Across urban and rural parts of the state, available therapists may vary by specialty, schedule, and session format. You may want support for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, or work stress. As you compare Connecticut therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy approaches, and background details that connect to your needs.

Location and access also matter when choosing a therapist in CT. If you live near Hartford, New Haven, Stamford, or a smaller town, you may weigh in-person appointments against virtual sessions based on your schedule and preferences. You can narrow your search by availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios can help you understand how each person describes their approach, communication style, and what to expect in sessions.

The cost of mental health care in Connecticut can vary, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who take insurance, review estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and compare options in one place. Nationally, Headway works with over 100 insurance plans. You can browse therapist profiles, confirm coverage for your plan and location, and book directly when you’re ready.

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