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.
My name is Tia, Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with over 20 years of behavioral health experience.
Sometimes we may feel unhappy, lonely, or a bit stuck and want something more for ourselves and our relationships. Through counseling, I can help you create a more meaningful and fulfilling life, while also decreasing feelings of discontent. Working together, we can establish a supportive, therapeutic connection that is tailored to your individual needs and challenges to help change your life for the better. We will identify the barriers that may be preventing you, your child, or your families from feeling happy and connected with others. Please feel welcome to schedule a consultation with me to chat about how we can get started.

As a licensed psychotherapist, I believe that mental health is essential for maintaining happiness, well-being, and a sense of security. While it may seem counterintuitive, seeking help is a courageous act, and showing vulnerability is a true sign of strength, not weakness.
I’m Dr. Moya O’Leary, PsyD, LPC, a licensed therapist specializing in perinatal and maternal mental health. I help women and families navigate the emotional challenges of pregnancy, postpartum adjustment, fertility struggles, and pregnancy loss. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practices like CBT and trauma-informed care. I believe therapy should feel supportive, practical, and tailored to your real life — not a one-size-fits-all process.
I believe that we are always one decision away from living the exact life that we want! I am a first-generation Haitian-American graduate from SUNY Albany & Stony Brook University. I've worked in the mental health field for 12 years and still find myself energized by the stories of my incredibly brave clients. In my practice, I help first generation Women of Color break free from rescuing others and give them tangible tools to begin healing themselves through daily practice.

Frequently asked questions


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.
