Hello, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) working in Connecticut for the past 5 years. I work with my clients to help identify the cause of issues they may be experiencing, and help guide them through the process of addressing those issues. The most important aspect of therapy is that it is client-led. Everyone's needs and desires are different, and working out what a person is looking to gain from their therapy is the foundation for change. Once we have established that together, the path ahead can look different for each person. Some benefit from highly structured sessions centered around teaching tangible skills, others benefit from more loosely organized talk therapy. Either way, it is important to establish a treatment plan with goals early on, and work together to reach them.

Hello, my name is Famatta Gibson, and I work in the mental health field with a deep passion for supporting individuals on their journey toward emotional well-being and personal growth. My background is in social work, and I focus on creating safe, compassionate, and client-centered spaces where people feel heard, understood, and empowered. Whether working through anxiety, depression, trauma, or life transitions, I strive to provide evidence-based care tailored to each individual’s unique needs.

My great passion is to heal and empower my clients. I guide my clients, (children, adults, and families), through the exploration of unhealthy patterns and relationships.

I am a creative and compassionate psychotherapist who works with clients to unlock previously obscured strengths, untapped potential and energy blocked by behavioral patterns, beliefs that no longer work, and the impacts of grief, loss and trauma. Together we will find ways to enhance what is going well in life, understand what is not and move toward the goals that you aim to achieve.

I only provide telehealth at this time. I accept adjustment issues, life transitions, grief, mood or anxiety. I will be open and honest with you about what I can and cannot do for you within the confines of telehealth. I use the first session to determine that this is going to be a good fit for both of us. Therapy is very much about a good fit between two people and the right techniques. I intentionally keep a small caseload so I can give you the time without being preoccupied by keeping up volume. My availability is limited, so I can only accept mild to moderate mental health concerns. I am happy to direct you to more appropriate resources or providers if we aren't a good match. I see intake as a mutual interview for both of us to learn about each other and decide if we want to continue a therapeutic relationship. In the interest of helping you get the best care possible, I ask that you seek in-person treatment if you struggle with a thought disorder, substance abuse, partner/relationship violence, or other safety concerns. I also do not take court or DCF mandated treatment cases via telehealth. I also do not specialize in divorce or child custody matters. While I am knowledgeable in these areas, I believe the best care is in-person.
