Our therapists offer DBT / dialectical behavior therapy in Cheshire, CT

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with 2 years of experience supporting individuals, couples, and families through life’s challenges. I help clients navigate stress, relationships, and personal growth by creating a warm, collaborative space where they feel seen and supported. My approach is tailored to each person’s unique needs, focusing on building strengths, developing coping skills, and fostering resilience and lasting change.

I earned my Master’s in Counselor Education from Radford University. I use a person-centered and strengths-based approach that combines empathy, support, and practical strategies to help clients overcome barriers and build self-awareness.

It takes courage to begin therapy, and I believe everyone deserves a space to feel heard, understood, and empowered. In our work together, you can expect guidance, authenticity, and a safe space to grow at your own pace.

I'm Terri, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with experience supporting children, adolescents, adults, and older adults in hospital, school, and home settings. I have worked with individuals facing challenges with depression, anxiety, substance abuse, grief, life transitions, and more. My goal as your clinician is to provide an opportunity to create positive and effective change.

My clinical approach combines Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing to help you develop practical skills, increase self-awareness, and build healthier behavioral patterns. These methods are tailored to your individual needs so we can focus on the steps that move you toward your goals.

I look forward to helping you build a balanced life that supports your growth and wellbeing
