I’m Stephanie, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 9 years of experience in the mental health field. My approach is client-centered and strengths-based, focused on helping you better understand yourself, build practical coping skills, and feel more grounded and confident in your daily life.
In sessions, clients often share that they feel truly heard and understood. My style is warm, down-to-earth, and collaborative. We’ll work together at a pace that feels supportive, exploring patterns, strengthening coping strategies, and developing tools you can actually use outside of therapy.
I use an integrative approach, drawing from evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), solution-focused, humanistic, and strengths-based interventions. Treatment is always tailored to your unique needs, goals, and lived experience.
I most often support clients experiencing anxiety, burnout, low self-esteem, people-pleasing, stress related to relationships or work, and challenges connected to major life transitions. As a Hispanic/Latin× and LGBTQ+ identified therapist, I’m mindful of how culture, identity, and systemic stressors impact mental health, and I strive to create an affirming and inclusive space for all clients.

Over the past 10 years, I’ve worked with clients navigating life’s plot twists, anxiety, depression, ADHD, LGBTQ+ identity, and grief, basically all the moments where things don’t go as planned and your brain decides to add commentary. My approach is grounded in both clinical experience and lived experience, including the loss of a baby, being late diagnosed with ADHD, and managing chronic illness, all of which pushed me to learn deeply so I could show up more fully for my clients. I tend to meet people in the messy middle, where things are real, a little complicated, and still very workable.

My name is Rick Amaral, ACSW, LCSW. Let me begin by fully introducing myself and sharing with you my years of experience as a clinician, manager and director. I have been working with children, teens and adult in many different formats (i.e. individual, family work, group work) for over 30 years in both private practice, as well as with local community mental health agencies.
I am also an Adjunct Professor at the local area colleges for the past 20+ years, teaching both psychology and sociology courses (both graduate and undergraduate level courses). In our sessions, I would like to utilize a strengths-based approach that works alongside you to identify areas that you would like to work on.
Acknowledging that all cars come with rearview mirrors, I would like to spend some time hearing from you about past life events and journey that you think have contributed to your development (both positively and otherwise). My preferred way of assisting you is to focus on a Life Narrative format. Such narratives allow for many chapters, some written, many left to be written.
When warranted, I will provide psycho-educational information on topics of interest (i.e. diagnosis, skill building, coping skills, mindfulness, etc..) and will share with you both local and community supports that you could draw upon after our time together has come to a close.
I provide compassionate and person-centered mental health care. I have worked as a therapist for seventeen years in a variety of settings. I have worked as a therapist for outpatient mental health clinics in both New York and Connecticut, served as a clinician for a psychiatric rehabilitation center, and a clinician for the NYS court system. I served as a field instructor for Quinnipiac University, and I am passionate about my chosen vocation as a clinical social worker. I am currently a crisis clinician/mental health first responder and serve as a therapist in private practice. My expertise is in the field of CBT. In addition, I am formally trained and hold a degree in Philosophy and Religious Studies, which enables me to provide counseling from a Christian lens. I completed formal basic training in EMDR and have completed clinical consultation hours. If you want a strong therapist in your corner- a therapist with nearly two decades of diverse clinical experience with advanced clinical practice wisdom, then I may be the right therapist for you.
Hello. Welcome. My name is Jill Waite. I am a licensed professional counselor in the state of CT and a licensed clinical mental health counselor in the state of NH. My training and education is as a clinical psychologist with advanced training and education in neuropsychology. I have 11-years of experience providing support and guidance to those struggling with a mental illness, relationship challenges, or emotional and mental unwellness.
My philosophy as a therapist is to provide a safe, supportive space where clients can explore their experiences, challenges, and hopes while moving toward meaningful change. Rooted in a person-centered approach, I believe therapy should honor each individual’s unique values and strengths, empowering them to take steps that align with their goals. Together, we work to build resilience, foster growth, and create pathways toward a life that feels purposeful, balanced, and worth living.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who is passionate about helping clients build resilience, strengthen relationships, and feel more in control of their lives. I integrate trauma-informed care and mindfulness into my practice to foster a safe space for clients to grow and feel empowered. I support individuals to navigate many different life challenges using practical tools to reinforce long-term success.
I am a trauma-informed mental health clinician who works with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, attachment wounds, and relational challenges. I specialize in supporting individuals who struggle with emotional regulation, boundary-setting, people-pleasing, and high-functioning anxiety, particularly those impacted by complex family dynamics or past relational trauma. My approach integrates evidence-based modalities such as CBT, attachment-based therapy, trauma-informed care, and skills-focused interventions to help clients build insight, emotional resilience, and healthier relationship patterns.
My goal is to create a safe, collaborative space where clients feel seen, empowered, and equipped with practical tools to reduce distress and strengthen their sense of self. Through our work together, clients gain clarity, confidence, and the ability to navigate life with greater emotional stability and intentionality.

With a strong commitment to holistic and integrative care, Dr. da Cruz supports clients in nurturing emotional well-being, strengthening relationships, and achieving long-term mental health wellness.

I help professionals in recovery who are carrying more than anyone realizes. Many of my clients are high-achieving people who have spent years holding everything together on the outside while privately struggling with alcohol, substances, compulsive behaviors, anxiety, or burnout. They’re people who have been depended on—at home, at work, and in their families—and they’re tired of performing, hiding, or white-knuckling their way through life.
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with years of experience in addiction recovery, trauma, and life transitions, I bring a grounded, practical, and compassionate approach. My work is deeply influenced by Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), values-based living, and helping clients build a life that feels aligned rather than pressured or chaotic.
I understand that asking for help—especially as a professional—comes with unique challenges: reputation concerns, workplace stress, perfectionism, shame, fear of consequences, and relationships strained by years of coping alone. My role is not to judge or lecture, but to offer a private, steady space where you can talk openly, regain clarity, and take meaningful steps toward a healthier, more peaceful life.
Whether you’re navigating early sobriety, long-term recovery, career demands, relationship stress, or a sense that you’ve lost yourself, I’m here to walk with you—not as an authority figure, but as someone who respects the courage it takes to show up.
If you’re ready for therapy that’s confidential, respectful, and tailored to the realities of being a professional in recovery, I’d be honored to support you.

Hey there! I'm Shirley.
We all struggle sometimes. You may need to make a change or a difficult decision. You may feel unsure of how to solve a problem. While family and friends may want to help, they often are unequipped to be truly helpful. Talking with someone unbiased and nonjudgmental can be most helpful when you feel lost or face barriers to achieving your hopes and dreams.
I am a compassionate and knowledgeable licensed professional counselor (LPC) in the state of Connecticut. I have 10+ years of diverse experience including trauma, substance abuse treatment, and domestic violence counseling and advocacy. I approach each client with an open mind and an open heart. I believe each person is the “expert” on themselves and it is my job to help them find the tools that will work for them.
My journey to counseling has been a long and winding road, going back to school at the age of 50 after a successful culinary career. I graduated top of my class with a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Bridgeport. In addition to a comprehensive education, I bring a wealth of life experience to the therapy room. I have been through marriage, divorce, parenting challenges, personal loss, and so much more. I love helping my clients find their passion and direction. I am humbled to walk with them as they discover their life path. I look forward to working with you as you begin your own journey.
Hello, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who believes healing and growth are possible for everyone. I aim to create a safe, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences. Through active listening, empathy, and faith-based counseling, I help clients find strength, resilience, and clarity in their journey.
I am passionate about working with young adults and individuals navigating challenges such as anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and ADHD. My goal is to empower clients to understand themselves better, develop healthier coping strategies, and build a strong foundation for long-term emotional and mental well-being.
Faith can provide comfort and direction, so I incorporate spiritual principles for those who seek them. I also emphasize the mind-body connection, encouraging self-care practices such as exercise, nutrition, and rest to support overall wellness.
With experience in anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, and mood-related concerns, I tailor my approach to each individual’s needs. Outside of counseling, I enjoy spending time with my family, attending church, traveling, listening to gospel music, cooking, and reading.
I look forward to supporting you on your journey of healing, growth, and fulfillment. Together, we can navigate challenges and empower you to live a healthier, more purposeful life.
I have been working as a Marriage and Family Therapist since 2004. I received my Masters degree from Central Connecticut State University (CCSU). I have been in private practice since 2007. Many of the issues I assist clients with are related, but not limited to, the following: relationships, parenting, depression, anxiety, major life transitions, goal achievement, growth work, and grief.
I am a licensed clinical social worker who has worked for the past 8+ years in an outpatient program for mental health and substance use. These years have introduced me to various concerns which include mood dysregulation, anxiety, crisis intervention, family conflict, trauma, substance use and abuse, along with severe mental health symptoms and more. I worked in leadership along with holding a clinical caseload so that I can best support the needs of all that entered the building while also supporting the clinical staff and providing guidance so they can confidently help those in need. We live in a world where people gravitate toward a quick fix, that is obvious with the prevalence of addiction. Working in the substance use field led to me focusing more on holistic approaches. It's important to remind people that there are ways that we can address our own symptoms, feel better and have lasting effects rather than that quick fix. In addition, my graduate school experience was working with children ages 5-18, another passion of mine which I look forward to doing again.

I take the time to get to know my clients and have many clients who have been with me for years. That doesn't mean someone will see me every week for the rest of their life. It means client know I am available when they have need. I do have clients who have seen me weekly for years not because they are dependent on me but because they have found benefit in processing their life regularly.
I have had a successful personal practice for years and can offer clients the space and reverence to unpack the most unpleasant things to reorder them in a way they no longer can cause harm as they once did. There is no perfect childhood and it is likely families do the best they can and it may not have filled the needs of their child.
I am happy to take as much time as needed to work through the problem as you understand it.

I help clients built a skillset for them to use in future when they no longer need or wish to come to therapy and help client identify triggers and coping skills, explore gifts and need areas and reprocess painful stressors from their past.
