Welcome! I'm Amy Mester, LCSW. You have taken one of the hardest things to do: ask for help via counseling. That shows that you are already demonstrating that you are capable of change. I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment that allows clients to explore obstacles with concerns related to anxiety, depression, and/or self-care. I focus on helping clients develop assertive communication & boundaries with themselves and those around them that can help improve their quality of life. Counseling can foster personal development in whatever way you may be seeking and help build the life you so deeply deserve. If that's what you're looking for, I'm here when you're ready to share.
You will get to know me and have the freedom to ask your questions. I provide a safe zone. I will want to know about you, and start to work together to establish the goals that you would like to achieve.
I want to hear what you have to say! I have worked very hard for the past 15 years, I've developed a counseling method that is based on your individual goals. I like to helping you (a) identify the root cause of your challenges and (b) create a tailored plan that leads to measurable progress.
You and I will work hard to create a trusting relationship and work towards the completion of the goals you are setting for yourself. You can, and you are able and you deserve to feel better.
Amy Mester offers therapy covered by Husky Health and Medicaid in Connecticut.
Eclectic therapy is a form of psychotherapy that adapts to the unique needs of each patient, depending on the problem, the treatment goals, and the person's expectations and motivation. I pick and choose which methods to use based on the person's individual needs. I do not stick to just one approach, all of the time.
