I’m Evamary Largaespada, a Licensed Professional Counselor supporting children, parents, and adults in creating meaningful, lasting change in their lives. I work with children from infancy through adolescence, first-time and prenatal parents, and adults looking to heal from past experiences, understand how their childhood impacts their present, and break generational cycles. In my practice, I provide a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where clients can explore their emotions, thoughts, and life experiences. I integrate Person-Centered Therapy, Existential Therapy, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Child-Parent Psychotherapy, and attachment-based approaches to help clients heal, grow, and build stronger relationships with themselves and others. I guide adults in connecting with and healing their inner child, understanding patterns shaped by early experiences, and developing new ways of relating to themselves and their loved ones. For families, I support children and parents in strengthening their bond, improving communication, and fostering emotional resilience. Together, we work to create trust, emotional safety, and self-awareness, paving the way for healing, personal growth, and healthier relationships across generations.

I’m Jess, a licensed clinical social worker with nearly two decades of experience supporting adolescents, young adults, and adults through stress, transition, and emotional challenges. My style is curious, authentic, and grounded in meaningful connection, with some humor woven in when it helps. I specialize in trauma, emotion regulation, anxiety, identity development, relationship stress, and co‑occurring mental health and substance use concerns. I help the people I work with make sense of what’s happening beneath the surface and build skills that strengthen how they move through the world. My approach is collaborative and practical, drawing from evidence‑based models like Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Trauma‑Focused CBT, and the Encompass model, adapted to each person’s needs and goals. I work to create a space where you feel seen, understood, and safe enough to explore what’s really going on. I ask thoughtful, direct questions with curiosity and care. Self‑work isn’t about having all the answers — it’s about becoming who you want to be in a way that feels steady, grounded, and true to you.

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 a Licensed Clinical Social Worker providing telehealth therapy for teens, adults, and families across Connecticut. I believe therapy should feel like a conversation—not like someone talking at you. My style is warm, direct, collaborative, and down-to-earth, creating a space where you can be honest without fear of judgment while also being challenged in ways that help you grow. While we'll absolutely make room for the hard conversations, I also believe laughter belongs in therapy. Sometimes humor helps us feel more human, more connected, and reminds us that healing doesn't always have to feel heavy. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, burnout, relationship challenges, emotional overwhelm, or simply feeling stuck, we'll work together to understand what's happening beneath the surface and build practical skills that create lasting change.

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 there and welcome. My hope is that when you sit down with me, you'll feel like you're talking with someone who genuinely wants to know your story, without judgment or pressure. I believe that trust and genuine understanding help in establishing a good relationship and do my best to meet you where you are in your healing.

I have experience with kids, adolescents, and adults in group & individual therapy along with dual diagnosis. Outside of being a therapist, I'm a wife, a mom, and a former military spouse who has lived in several countries.

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

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.
