Online Therapy in Colchester, CT for Trauma & Teen Anxiety
Online Therapy in Connecticut for Adults Healing Past Trauma and Anxious Teens
Online Therapy Works When You Can’t “Do it All”
Some days you’re drained. And overwhelmed. You are doing everything for everyone. Performing. Putting on a show so that no one can figure out that you’re not perfect.
Some days that is exhausting. You wish you could hide from all the energy it takes to be the version of you that everyone needs to see so that they keep enjoying you and believing you won’t be a failure.
In online therapy, you don’t have to navigate a bunch of unknown loopholes in the world. You get to show up and be real, really honor and take care of yourself—not everyone else. You get to take your time in your private space to just be. No pressure, no rush, no expectations. Doesn’t that sound like a breath of fresh air?
I specialize in offering online therapy for hyperindependent adults with histories of trauma and teens with anxiety and low self-esteem. My specialties include adults who feel “too much and not good enough”, with histories of childhood trauma and parentification trauma and teens struggling with perfectionism, anxiety, and low self-esteem.

Why Get Stuck in Traffic on the Merritt Parkway When You Can Focus on Yourself?
We live in a small state, but places can feel far away and traffic can be time-consuming. You have a lot of things to keep track of and do. The beauty of online therapy? It can work for you.
You can skip the time driving or on public transit and instead focus on your therapy. And the time you save? Why not do the very things you have always been curious to explore? Go hiking at Sleeping Giant State Park, take in the waterfalls at Kent Falls State Park, nurture your inner child and be playful at Hammonasset Beach State Park, or learn something new at the museums in New Haven and Hartford.
Online Therapy for Trauma and Teen Anxiety in Connecticut

Therapy Approaches
Internal Family Systems (IFS) - You may view some parts of you as “bad” and others as “good,” but IFS allows you to unlock compassion for the many parts of you, the parts of your personality that show up to protect, that are wounded, that hurt. This compassion unlocks healing in a profound way.
Sand Tray & Play-based Therapy - I welcome every part of you, exactly as you are. These approaches utilize symbols and metaphor to tap into and deepen your connection to your emotions and needs, enhancing your healing through what is hard to verbalize
Interpersonal Neurobiology - This approach combines an understanding of how you relate to others, as well as knowledge of brain science to enhance your awareness of how your body and nervous system have had to survive in the past and present
Online Therapy Gives You the Chance to Practice Self-Care in Action
One aspect of my approach involves deepening your connection to your needs, your body, and your emotions.
Nothing makes this easier than practicing in your very own space. Why? You get to immediately take the skills we are practicing through our work together into the world, as it works with and for you.
In your space, you can do that in a number of ways: sitting in your favorite chair, using a fidget to help you focus, getting warm under blanket, and even being near your pet and/or plants! It’s part of making your valuable therapeutic time safe, approachable, and available to you in a way that meets and tunes into your body’s needs.
(Plus, I personally always have a blanket nearby to be cozy!)
How Does Online Therapy Work?
We meet via a HIPAA-compliant secure video platform using the same link provided to you each time. You can use a phone, computer, tablet. All you need is a private space for us to meet. Simple and convenient!
Who Benefits from Online Therapy?
Many individuals benefit from online therapy (both adults and teens!). Being able to attend therapy from the safety and comfort of your own space eases your mind and can make working around busy schedules, unpredictable transportation, and unforeseeable weather circumstances much less stressful.
Online therapy removes barriers, making it a seamless and ideal way to attend therapy.
