Most people don't have a relationship, anxiety, confidence, or self-worth problem. They have a pattern problem.

The way you relate to yourself, other people, and the world around you is often influenced by experiences you don't even realize are still affecting you. That's why insight alone isn't always enough to create lasting change.

Hi, I'm Lissette LaRue, a Licensed Professional Counselor, National Certified Counselor, and Certified Hypnotherapist with 15+ years of experience helping individuals and couples uncover and heal the deeper patterns driving emotional pain, relationship challenges, and repeated life struggles.

My work combines psychology, trauma-informed care, attachment theory, nervous system regulation, and mind-body approaches to help clients create healthier relationships, greater confidence, stronger self-trust, and lives that finally feel as good as they look.

I work with adults experiencing relationship concerns, trauma, anxiety, self-esteem issues, communication challenges, life transitions, and the lasting effects of childhood experiences.

Whether you're navigating dating, marriage, family relationships, or your relationship with yourself, we'll work together to create meaningful and lasting change.

Ashley Beck

Ashley Beck

Therapist

Virtual • Connecticut


Hi, I'm Ashley, a Licensed Professional Counselor and Reiki II practitioner. I believe that somewhere underneath the anxiety, the self-doubt, and the patterns that keep repeating, there is a version of you that already knows the way. My job isn't to fix you. It's to create a space steady enough that you can actually hear yourself. Together we get curious about the thoughts that won't quiet down, the emotions that feel bigger than the moment, the behaviors that keep showing up even when you don't want them to, and what all of it is actually trying to tell you. I bring tools into our work that help you understand what's happening in your mind and body when you're overwhelmed, so you can actually do something about it instead of just surviving it. But more than any method or modality, I show up as a real person walking alongside you, trusting that you are the expert on your own life.

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.
