Hi there! Welcome. My name is Dr. Richards and I have over 16 years of expert training and experience in the field of Education, Counseling & Psychology. I thoroughly enjoy providing mental health services to individuals and their families in need of treatment.
Even when you’re feeling hopeless, stressed, or overwhelmed, those moments don’t last forever—they’re part of a season, not your whole story. With the right support, you can move through them. My goal is to help you gain clarity and direction so you can reach your full potential and reconnect with your purpose. Regardless of your past fears, setbacks, or self-doubt, change is always possible.
I use Cognitive-Behavioral, DBT-informed, and interpersonal treatment approaches to tailor each session to your individual needs. I also administer screening tools as needed, to help better identify symptoms related to depression and anxiety.
Together, we’ll build coping strategies that work for you, incorporating techniques such as poetry, music, art, movement, and writing according to your interest and needs. I’ll support you in identifying and working through negative, self-defeating thoughts and patterns that may be holding you back.
In a safe, nonjudgmental space, we’ll work through challenges, strengthen self-compassion, and help you move forward with greater confidence and intention.
For couples struggling, I help to identify root issues that negatively impact your relationship and incorporate evidenced-based resources to start the process of change in a practical healthy way.
I am a therapist who work with individual navigating anxiety, stress trauma and life transitions. My approach is collaborative, warm and down to earth. I believe that therapy should be a nonjudgmental space where individuals can navigate real life challenges that are impacting their lives. Along with evidence based practices, I offer a space for exploring the emotional, mental and spiritual aspect of healing guided by personal belief and comfort level. Together, we will work to understand patterns, build resilience and create meaningful life changes.
My approach is collaborative, practical, and grounded in evidence-based therapies. I work with adults of all genders, including individuals and couples, who are navigating emotional, relational, or life challenges. I focus on helping clients make sense of their experiences, rebuild self-trust, and develop tools that support meaningful, lasting change. Many clients leave therapy feeling more grounded, empowered, and better equipped to move forward with clarity and confidence.
I am a dedicated therapist who brings a compassionate, steady, and deeply human approach to the work I do. My clinical practice is shaped not only by years of professional experience, but also by my personal journey as a mother and wife navigating the complex realities of children facing serious health challenges. These experiences have strengthened my empathy, broadened my understanding of resilience, and deepened my commitment to supporting individuals through their most difficult moments.
I specialize in telehealth therapy, providing accessible, high‑quality care for a wide range of mental health conditions, including anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, and life transitions. In every session, my goal is to create a safe, supportive, and non‑judgmental space where you can explore your emotions, understand your patterns, and feel genuinely heard.
My mission is to help individuals address life’s challenges with clarity and confidence, cultivate resilience, and move toward holistic healing. Whether you’re seeking relief, growth, or a renewed sense of balance, I am here to walk alongside you as you build the tools, insight, and strength needed to move forward.
As a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 20 years of experience, I approach this work not simply as a profession, but as a calling. I believe healing begins with safety, trust, and authentic connection. The therapeutic relationship is the foundation of meaningful change — and often, a powerful part of the treatment itself.
I bring an authentic blend of knowledge, humility, sense of humor, and real-world perspective to each session. My diverse background blended with decades of experience allows me to both empathize with and empower clients to create meaningful, sustainable change.
Hello, my name is Kelley Machado, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Connecticut. You may wonder what does Licensed Clinical Social Worker mean, what does that allow me to do? As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker I have the unique opportunity to help people work through various points in their lives. In the years I have been a social worker I have worked with various populations of people from many socioeconomic, cultural, and racial backgrounds as well as people with various presenting concerns. I began my career working in the mental health system, then the criminal justice system, then onto medical social work including various medical issues as well as aging and end of life concerns.
I believe people can experience difficulties with coping whenever faced with a transition in life. These changes can include monumental transitions that are both good or bad, like a new job, new family members, loss, separations, disappointments, traumatic events, etc. These types of experiences can cause psychosocial distress which can have far-reaching impacts on many aspects of our lives. I work with my clients who include children, adults, couples, and families to find healthy coping methods in order to gain a healthier perception of themselves which can help to strengthen their relationships with themselves and others so they can find themselves as comfortable, secure, and whole.
I take time to get to know each of my clients on an individual basis so that I can tailor approaches to care because I have learned that not one approach impacts and helps all clients. I have been trained and adopted many approaches to provide therapeutic support including cognitive-behavioral, attachment theory, developmental theory, trauma theory, and dialectical behavioral theory.
Change is not easy and embarking on change takes a tremendous amount of courage and actions. I congratulate you on your wish, strength, and wisdom for seeking help and taking this first step towards making a change in your life. If you are prepared to move beyond wishes and intentions to action and fulfillment- I am here to empower and support you to achieve your goals. I would love to help you reach your goals, whatever that may be in life so you can move forward
