*currently accepting clients with day time availbility* Have you experienced trauma that has left you feeling a lack of control, depressed, anxious, overwhelmed, misunderstood, or incapable of actively engaging with your environment?

I believe that the more you put into therapy, the more you get out of it. Therapy is not solely a place to vent, but an avenue to strategize real behavioral changes to improve your life and relationships. By making a conscious effort to implement those changes outside of the therapy office and taking responsibility for yourself, you are most likely to benefit from treatment. I am a masters-level, Connecticut-licensed clinician with over 20 years of experience in outpatient and residential treatment. I am a Clinical Member of the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy (AAMFT) and a clinical supervisor.

I specialize in children and teenagers struggling with attention problems, depression, anxiety, anger problems, poor school performance, and general problems in behavior. I make it a point to work very closely with parents as I appreciate the fear and anxiety of having your child struggle. I am compassionate, but direct in my style. I am always available as a resource for parents and as an advocate for services for their children. I have worked with children of all ages for over twenty five years.

I view psychology and mental health from the lens of how we work in our environmental and family groups. I am a family therapist who looks at individuals as part of a network of mental health needs. Even when I work with the individual, family and community matters to me.

People come to therapy for all kinds of reasons. Maybe you are tired of your own BS and are finally ready to make lasting change. Perhaps, your romantic relationships, family connections, or friendships are lackluster, unfulfilling and you’re ready to set yourself up for relationship success. You may have gone through major (or even minor) life changes and now feel like old patterns that you had once resolved are coming back to haunt you. Or maybe you’ve always struggled with communicating your wants and needs and are ready to learn how to have your voice be heard while still preserving your relationships.

Jesus said, “The thief comes only to steal, kill and destroy. I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly.” (John 10:10). What would abundant life look like for you? And are there any roadblocks you've encountered? For some it's loss, fear, sadness, regret, shame, disappointment or a toxic relationship. I don't presume to have all of the answers, but I am here to partner with you on your journey. Whether it's discovering what your goals are, or just the cherry on the top. Counseling can be an investment in yourself and your future. Chris is a Licensed therapist in New York and Connecticut.

I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and teens with anxiety, ADHD, and other emotional, behavioral and social challenges. I believe in an individualized approach to therapy, incorporating cognitive-behavioral techniques, play therapy, social skills instruction, and emotional regulation strategies. My practice is aimed at ensuring that each client develops a healthy sense of self and feels equipped to handle the stressors of everyday life. I also believe in the significant role parents play in their child's wellbeing and, therefore, incorporate parent education and consultation as a key component of my approach.

Welcome. Do you need a safe space to talk about what you're going through? A space to discuss what is challenging, confusing, upsetting, disconnecting, or distressing? Besides being seen, heard, and understood, therapy can be a space where you can work on your "stuff". This may be addressing your past; building healthier relationships; managing stress from the outside world; adjusting to difficult changes; increasing self-confidence; finding healthier lifestyles; as well as learning coping and wellness skills.

Sometimes it can be hard to get through the day, and even harder to get through the night. Sometimes we can feel lost, empty, unmotivated, angry or anxious. Maybe all at once, or maybe we feel nothing at all. Feeling trapped, confused, and stuck in our emotions, thoughts, or circumstances can be painful; it doesn’t have to be. Sometimes trying to cope on our own can seem overwhelming. I offer caring, empathetic, non-judgmental, effective therapy backed by 10 years of mental health experience. Everyone deserves to live a life full of enrichment, and personal fulfillment.
