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.
Hi! My name is Jenny, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I have experience in community support services, inpatient and outpatient treatment, emergency departments, crisis management, and psychiatric residential programs. I work with children, adolescents, and adults navigating challenges including depression, anxiety, trauma, stress, and life transitions.
Are you feeling overwhelmed, lost, or struggling with life’s challenges? In my practice, I believe that therapy is a collaborative journey and you are the expert on your own life. Together, we will work hand-in-hand to uncover the strengths you already possess and build the skills needed for lasting change. Whether you are looking for coping skills to manage your life better, a need to identify negative behavior patterns within yourself, or need a safe place and someone to talk to, I work directly with you to achieve any goal.
I will be your partner and guide in your journey of self discovery and self acceptance. I will listen , truly hear and see you and support the goals you want to achieve.
My name is Tia, Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with over 20 years of behavioral health experience.
There is often a disconnect between what we logically know and how we truly feel. My approach is warm and direct, using a relational framework to bridge that gap. Together, we’ll move toward the root of your distress—exploring patterns, processing emotions, and developing the self-compassion and skills needed to create lasting, transformational change.
Hi, I’m Liz! I help clients heal from past trauma and uncover the root of what’s keeping them feeling stuck. Trauma can shape the way you see yourself, others, and the world—often showing up as anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or difficulty setting healthy boundaries.
My work focuses on addressing these deeper patterns to support lasting healing and meaningful personal growth. For those who desire it, I also offer the option to integrate Christian faith into the counseling process.
I believe therapy should not only be effective but also feel human and approachable. We’ll roll up our sleeves and do the work together, while also making space for moments of lightness along the way.

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.
