Hi there, I'm Gianna! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, providing compassionate and caring therapy. At the heart of my practice is the belief that healing is possible when people feel safe and empowered. I have several years of experience supporting a range of mental health challenges including anxiety, depression, trauma, family conflict, relationship stress, and grief. I also help to explore issues around life’s meaning and purpose.

Additionally, I work with clients navigating stressful life transitions, such as divorce, new parenthood, the death of a loved one, job loss, or an unexpected traumatic event. I take a special interest in those dealing with changes connected to aging, as I have over a decade of experience in the health care field as a hospice worker.

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.
