Do you feel like you're constantly "on edge" yet unable to move forward? Sometimes life feels like the ground has pulled away, leaving you drifting in a space where you don't feel like 'enough.' If you’re navigating those hollow, shifting tides, I’m here to help you find your anchor. We’ll work together to tether those feelings to a sense of peace and clarity. My goal is to help you find an anchor a sense of internal stability that holds firm even when the world around you feels chaotic. ​I support individuals navigating all challenges of life: the racing pulse of anxiety, the heavy fog of feeling stuck, and the stinging memories of difficult experiences. My approach blends CBT, mindfulness, and narrative therapy to help you find your anchor when life feels like a storm, ensuring that major shifts and daily stresses don't sweep you away. ​I am a licensed therapist who believes therapy should be a collaborative, genuine conversation. I provide therapy exclusively through telehealth. I advocate for the power of a therapeutic bond and bring warm non-judgmental energy to our virtual sessions. If you're ready to stop drifting and start anchoring, reach out today for a free 15 min consultation.

Hello! I’m Dolores. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and live in Connecticut. I have a Master of Social Work degree from Southern Connecticut State University and have been a therapist for 29 years. Too many people are feeling depressed, anxious and overwhelmed by the expectations of their lives. I enjoy collaborating with men and women ages 30 to 100+ who are struggling with feeling that -- no matter how hard try, they feel they are just never enough – trying to balance being a great parent, spouse and employee. Or perhaps you are struggling with an empty nest, retirement, loss of a spouse, your marriage, a close friend, parents, siblings. Are you facing a major change in your health or being uprooted from the home you lived in for years? Do you lay awake at night thinking about all of things you intended to get completed but did not get accomplished? Have you had nights when you just couldn’t fall asleep because you kept going over and over a conversation and thinking about what was said, what you could or should have done differently? Many of us have experienced these feelings – but you do not have to continue to feel this way! I am also trained in the treatment of domestic violence and Anger Management.

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
