Online Anxiety Therapy for Residents of Connecticut
Welcome
Life’s challenges can arise when you least expect them, leaving you feeling lost, overwhelmed, and unsure of how to move forward. At Inner Heart Therapy, I provide online therapy for residents across Connecticut, offering a safe, affirming, and private space to explore your struggles and find meaningful solutions.
If you’re navigating anxiety or LGBTQ+ identity concerns, I’m here to provide compassionate support tailored to your unique needs. As a licensed therapist in Connecticut, I offer telehealth therapy statewide, making high-quality care accessible from the comfort of your home.
Connecticut residents often struggle with long waitlists for in-person therapy. With telehealth, you don’t have to put your mental health on hold. Whether you’re in Hartford, New Haven, or a rural town like Woodstock, online therapy provides high-quality, LGBTQ+ affirming, and anxiety-focused support without the long drive or scheduling stress.

FAQ
Do you provide online therapy throughout Connecticut?
Yes. I am licensed in Connecticut and work with adults across the state through secure online sessions. As long as you are physically located in Connecticut at the time of your session and have a private space with a reliable internet connection, we are able to work together. Telehealth removes the geographic barrier entirely.
What types of anxiety do you treat for clients in Connecticut?
I work with generalized anxiety, high-functioning anxiety, social anxiety, health anxiety, perfectionism, burnout, and panic. Many clients across Connecticut describe a pattern of constant worry, physical tension, trouble sleeping, or a sense of being on high alert even when things are going well. We start where you are and build from there.
What is your approach to anxiety therapy?
I blend cognitive-behavioral strategies with nervous system regulation tools. CBT addresses the thinking side of anxiety, including worry loops, catastrophic thoughts, and avoidance patterns. Nervous system work addresses the body side, helping with tension, shallow breathing, restlessness, or chronic activation. Some clients also benefit from the Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP), a listening-based program for calming the nervous system.

A Science-Backed Approach to Healing with SSP
Traditional talk therapy is powerful, but sometimes, the nervous system needs more than words. The Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) is an evidence-based therapy designed to help the brain and body feel safe again. Using specially filtered music, SSP promotes nervous system regulation, reducing symptoms of anxiety, trauma, and sensory sensitivity.
