Anxiety Therapy in Norwich, CT

Welcome

Are you looking for compassionate online therapy in Norwich, Connecticut? Life can feel like too much, even when you are doing your best to stay calm and keep moving. At Inner Heart Therapy, I offer affirming, confidential online sessions for adults across New London County and throughout Connecticut. My goal is to create a space where you can slow down, untangle what is happening inside, and find a steadier sense of balance.

If you are struggling with anxiety, overthinking, or burnout, therapy can help you find new ways to manage your stress and emotions. Together, we will use practical, evidence-based tools to help you feel more grounded and capable in your daily life.

As a queer-affirming and neurodiversity-informed therapist, I understand how valuable it is to feel seen and respected without needing to explain yourself. Whether you are coping with panic, exhaustion, or uncertainty about your next steps, therapy can help you reconnect with calm and confidence.

Finding a therapist who fits can be difficult in smaller Connecticut towns, but online therapy makes it easier. You can meet from home, during your lunch break, or anywhere private where you feel comfortable and safe.

You will receive a response in two business days.

What anxiety looks like in Norwich

Anxiety here often hides under “I just need to get through today.” Your thoughts might race driving on Route 2, waiting in line at Big Y, or trying to unwind after a long shift. Your chest tightens when traffic builds near downtown, or when you see another unexpected bill come through. Maybe you hold it together through work or classes at Three Rivers, then feel completely drained when you get home. Winter darkness, rising costs, and constant schedule changes can all wear your system down. If you are not sure what you are feeling, we can map it together and find steps that fit Norwich life.

How therapy helps

We keep therapy practical and supportive. First we notice your signals, —how your breath changes, how your jaw tenses, where your mind loops. Then we practice small tools you can use before a stressful conversation, between tasks, or when bedtime turns into worry. I combine clear thinking strategies with nervous system awareness so you can respond with more calm and self-trust. If you want to work more deeply, I also offer polyvagal-informed tools and the Safe and Sound Protocol.

Sessions are held online across Connecticut, so you can meet from home, your car near the Yantic River, or any quiet spot where you feel grounded and safe.

LGBTQ+ affirming therapy in Norwich

You deserve therapy where you do not have to hide parts of who you are. Bring questions about gender, sexuality, relationships, family, or faith. You will not be asked to shrink yourself or rush your process. We go at your pace, with emotional safety and authenticity at the heart of the work.

Specialties

Can you help with high-functioning anxiety in Norwich?

Yes, I work with clients in Norwich and across New London County through secure, virtual therapy sessions. Whether you live near town, by the river, or further out in the Quiet Corner, therapy is accessible without travel. Many clients find online therapy easier to maintain and more comfortable than in-person sessions. My goal is to make therapy feel consistent and supportive.

What does LGBTQ+ affirming therapy mean

LGBTQ+ affirming therapy means you are seen and respected for your full identity. You will not have to educate your therapist or filter your story. Whether you are exploring gender, sexuality, relationships, or life transitions, I hold space with clarity, compassion, and care. This is a place where your truth fits.

Do you work with trauma-related anxiety?

Yes. I specialize in helping adults manage anxiety connected to trauma, family stress, and long-term overwhelm. My approach combines nervous system science, including polyvagal theory, with simple, actionable tools to help you feel more at ease in your body. Healing is not about erasing your past. It is about learning how to live in the present with steadiness and self-trust.
