Therapists in Connecticut

"Whatever opens us is not as important as what it opens" Mark Nepo I have been working in the field of counseling for nearly 27 years. I have often seen my role as joining others for a brief time during their life's journey assisting as they either discover or create a path of fulfillment in life. Throughout my career, I have walked alongside people struggling with grief, loss, including pet loss, addiction, and LGBTQ related issues. I have walked with many through the landscape of shame, guilt, and fear because these are often the places where wounds reside. My counseling style is such that I view each of us as an unfolding story. I strive to hear your story, see where you are, hear what you seek, and collaborate in choosing a desired path. While my practice is predominately based on humanistic and existential theory, I often refer to the work developed by adult children of dysfunctional families known as ACOA. I realize not all needs for support or guidance require deep dives into self. In fact, I found the most profound and common needs are to be heard and to matter. Regardless of the issue, you are presently faced with, may this issue become your teacher.

Hello! My name is Lori and I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC). Over the course of 10 years in the mental health field, I have worked with clients of almost all ages, genders, and racial/ethnic/multicultural backgrounds that have experienced a variety of symptoms and diagnoses. I believe that every client is unique in their own way and that everyone’s personal background brings a unique perspective. I aim to explore that perspective and help guide client’s in a place where they feel safe and comfortable, where they can learn to grow mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually. I use many different techniques like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, solution focused therapy, mindfulness, psycho-education, etc. I tailor the techniques to each individual and their needs. I also tend to have a heavy focus on social supports, self care, boundaries, and coping skills. I believe those are all essential tools in the healing process, and it's so important to not only learn about these skills, but to also maintain them. Looking forward to meeting you!
