Therapy involves using evidence-based strategies to help you achieve meaningful life changes. All licensed therapists in Connecticut will be familiar with several research-based tools to help you address concerns. They can help you manage mental health conditions, tackle life stressors, and achieve personal growth. Therapists may also be helpful for those managing adjustment issues who want to develop greater resiliency or those hoping to achieve greater success at handling practical problems. 

Therapists use a wide range of treatment modalities and techniques, such as solution-focused therapy, which utilizes problem-solving approaches that emphasize solutions rather than the cause of the problem, or cognitive-behavioral therapy, which leverages the interaction between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to help you make meaningful change. Some therapists work with specific populations, such as practitioners who work primarily with women to help them manage concerns unique to their gender. Others specialize in certain conditions or illnesses, such as an alcohol counselor with advanced training in substance use disorders. 

Whether you are experiencing a debilitating concern or simply looking for new paths toward self-improvement, a mental health professional can likely help. If you’re ready to make an appointment with a therapist, Norwich, CT, has plenty of practitioners available. It is often helpful to consider therapists whose experience aligns with your main concerns. It may also be worthwhile to consider online therapy, which allows you to attend therapy from home or another comfortable location. 

The online practitioners listed below offer services in the Norwich area. They are highly qualified and possess the same credentials as traditional therapists. Open their profile to learn more about their education, experience, and areas of professional development. If their credentials are agreeable, it may be worth scheduling a session to see if they are a good fit for you.

Hello there! My name is Christina and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in CT. I have been in the mental health field for 9 years and in the customer service field for over 15 years. I have a vast range of experience in different settings with all different types of clients. My experience includes working in: inpatient, residential, partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient, and outpatient. I have worked with many different types of issues/and disorders such as: depression; anxiety (obsessive-compulsive disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, agoraphobia, social anxiety, phobias, and panic disorder); posttraumiatic stress disorder; trauma; veterans; grief and loss; bipolar; schizophrenia; attentive deficit hyperactive disorder; personality disorders; anger challenges; impulse control challenges; gambling; substance abuse; kleptomania; eating disorders; sex offenders; domestic violence; life transition challenges; and interpersonal relationship challenges. Life can be very challenging and don't we all just wanna feel understood, validated, and supported? My therapy style is empathic, non-judgmental, supportive, and interactive. I like to work collaboratively with my clients to identify goals and work together to achieve them by assigning homework. I provide education on topics/disorders when the client does not have knowledge of it in attempts for them to gain more awareness into themselves to live a better quality of life. If we don’t understand something then how can we work on improving it?! I use a combination of approaches such as: cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, solution-focused therapy, strength-based therapy, and reality-based therapy. I believe therapy is a journey and if you are to really benefit from it, it should not be comfortable. With that said, another approach of mine is to challenge and encourage clients to face their fears and work through their difficult emotions/challenges without turning to unhealthy coping skills. This is not an easy task but I will do whatever I can to help support you and help in your journey to attain a better quality of life! I look forward to chatting and working with you. Godspeed!

I am an individual and couples counselor with fifteen years of experience. I tailor my work with clients to ensure a person-centered approach. We can work together collaboratively as you continue your journey at your own pace. I would like to support you in clarifying your goals and find healthy ways to meet them. Growth and change are not always easy but together, we can explore what tools and skills will best lead you to where you want to be. Working with individuals, I like to reassure clients that we are each on our own path in life and our journey will not be the same as those of our peers. We arrive at different places and at different times, but I believe we are all where we are meant to be. Together we could identify changes that could have a positive impact on your life and help lead you to personal growth and satisfaction. In working with couples, I have completed levels 1, 2, and 3 of the Gottman method as well as Treating Affairs and Trauma and Couples and Addiction Recovery. I like that the Gottman Method gives roadmaps and specific exercises to use in treatment. I have found couples find it effective and helpful. I look forward to working with you!
