I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Certified Rehabilitation Counselor (CRC) with a decade of clinical experience supporting individuals through some of life's most difficult challenges. I earned my Master of Science in Clinical Professional Counseling from Central Connecticut State University, with specialized training in addictions recovery, mental health, and rehabilitation. Throughout my career, I have worked with a wide range of clients across diverse and often high-stakes settings. Most recently, I spent seven years as a Licensed Professional Counselor at Garner Correctional Institution, providing individual counseling, group therapy, and crisis intervention to justice-involved adults navigating complex mental health needs, trauma, and reentry challenges. Prior to that, I served as an Outpatient Therapist at Farrell Treatment Center, where I helped establish a new Intensive Outpatient Program and delivered trauma-informed, gender-responsive care to individuals struggling with substance use and co-occurring disorders. My earlier work with the Brain Injury Alliance of Connecticut and the Hospital for Special Care deepened my understanding of how neurological, behavioral, and emotional health intersect. I work with men, women, teenagers, and young adults of any gender, race, religious background, or sexual orientation who are open to learning new skills and committed to meaningful goals in therapy. Clients often come to me seeking support with anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, life transitions, relationship challenges, and the lasting effects of adverse life experiences. Drawing on evidence-based approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, I tailor treatment to each client's strengths, values, and goals. I am committed to providing a welcoming, nonjudgmental space where every client feels respected, heard, and empowered to create meaningful, lasting change.

I’m really glad you’re here! Reaching out for therapy is a big step. Therapy should feel like a space where you can truly be yourself, feel safe, supported, and free to speak openly without fear of judgment. You don’t have to have everything figured out to begin. My role is to walk alongside you, helping you make sense of your experiences while building confidence, clarity, and practical tools for growth. I often think of life as a journey. Each day is an opportunity to learn, heal, and move forward in a way that feels right for you. Growing is not about perfection, it's about progress. No matter how big or small the steps may feel, they matter. We will take things one step at a time, at a pace that feels comfortable for you. I especially enjoy working with young women who are navigating life transitions, boundaries, self-worth, and personal growth. Life can feel overwhelming at times, but you don’t have to go through it alone. This is your space to be heard, to feel supported, and to grow in a way that feels meaningful to you. It would be an honor to be your therapist and support you through your Journey Through Life.

You do not have to have everything figured out before you reach out—you only have to take the first step. I’m Sharon Corliss, MSW, LICSW, a licensed therapist serving adults in Massachusetts as an LICSW and in Connecticut, Florida, and Texas as an LCSW. I specialize in helping individuals heal from trauma, navigate grief and loss, manage anxiety and depression, and cope with life transitions, relationship challenges, and stress. My approach is collaborative, client-centered, and trauma-informed. I believe healing happens in a safe, supportive environment where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to grow at your own pace. Together, we’ll identify your strengths, develop practical coping strategies, and work toward meaningful goals that fit your unique needs. I integrate evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), Trauma-Focused CBT, and Seeking Safety, while tailoring treatment to what works best for you. Much of my career has been dedicated to supporting Veterans and others facing life’s most difficult challenges. Whether you’re working through the effects of trauma, grieving a loss, or feeling overwhelmed by life’s demands, you don’t have to face it alone. Taking the first step toward therapy can feel difficult, but you don’t have to have everything figured out before you begin.

Seeking therapy is a courageous first step, and you don't have to have everything figured out before we begin. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, life transitions, or simply feeling stuck, my goal is to create a space where you feel genuinely understood, respected, and supported. I take a person-centered, integrative approach to therapy, which means I tailor our work to you rather than trying to fit you into one specific style of therapy. Drawing from evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Motivational Interviewing, Positive Psychology, and mindfulness-based interventions, we'll work together to better understand what's happening, identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and build practical tools for meaningful change. Clients often describe my style as warm, collaborative, genuine, and thoughtfully direct. I believe therapy works best when you feel comfortable enough to be yourself while also feeling supported to challenge old patterns, discover new perspectives, and continue growing at a pace that feels right for you.

Hi, I’m Gwen, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. My approach to therapy is honest, compassionate, and grounded in real life. I believe therapy should feel like a space where you can exhale, show up as yourself, and speak openly about what you’re carrying without feeling judged, rushed, or misunderstood. I work with individuals navigating chronic health conditions, substance use, stress, anxiety, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, burnout, and the emotional weight that comes with always having to “hold it together.” I also support caregivers and family members managing the emotional strain that can come with loving someone through illness, addiction, mental health challenges, or resistance to care. I understand how overwhelming it can feel when you’re constantly trying to support others while also trying not to lose yourself in the process. Over the years, I’ve worked closely with individuals and families impacted by homelessness, addiction, unstable support systems, medical challenges, and survival mode living. My style is warm, direct, interactive, and down to earth. I’m not the type of therapist who just sits quietly and nods through the session. I believe therapy should feel like a real conversation with someone who is present, engaged, and genuinely invested in your growth. In our work together, we’ll focus on understanding patterns, building healthier coping strategies, improving emotional awareness, strengthening boundaries, and creating meaningful change that fits your real life. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, supported, empowered, and better equipped to navigate whatever season of life you’re in.

Hi there, I go by Maddy and I've been working in the field for about 3 years helping clients at the worst points of their lives find a sense of relief from their suffering. I work with a diverse range of clients, ideally those who have a very loud inner critic, want to be more outspoken and advocate for themselves, and those who feel that they aren't cut out for this weird thing called life. I have a particular affinity towards anyone experiencing the above with the added layer of AuDHD. If any of the above speaks to you, please reach out and schedule an intake appointment.

I believe every person has the capacity to heal, grow, and create a life that reflects who they truly are—not simply who they have learned to become through pain, trauma, or life experiences. As a therapist, I am naturally curious, compassionate, and deeply invested in understanding each person's unique story. Rather than viewing people through the lens of a diagnosis, I strive to understand the experiences, relationships, and beliefs that have shaped them. Clients often describe me as warm, thoughtful, and easy to talk to while also appreciating that I ask meaningful questions that encourage deeper reflection and lasting change. I believe therapy should be a collaborative process where clients feel genuinely seen, challenged when appropriate, and supported as they work toward becoming the healthiest version of themselves.

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!
