It's Time to Heal Your Wounds And
Reveal Your Happiness

I get it! You are completely tired of feeling unhappy and frustrated. You need support!

My guess is that, you are searching through hundreds of therapist in Connecticut and can’t seem to find someone you truly connect with.

You’ve gone back and forth through online directories and even asked some of your friends for recommendations about the best therapist in Connecticut or even posted on Facebook for Christian Therapist in Connecticut, but yet you still haven’t found the right person.

You need a therapist that will not just nod and say “how does that make you feel?” You want a therapist that will connect and go into the trenches with you to pull you out!

Hopefully your search can end right here where we can establish the true connection you need!

Meet Emily!

Hi! I’m so glad you’re here and taking this step toward healing and growth. Prioritizing yourself especially when life feels heavy or uncertain is a powerful act of courage, and I would be honored to walk alongside you on that journey. I’m a Licensed Master Social Worker with a degree from the University of Saint Joseph. I was born and raised in New York City, where I was fortunate to grow up connected to many different cultures and backgrounds an experience that shaped my open, inclusive, and culturally responsive approach. I’m also a proud Latina and bilingual (English/Spanish), and I integrate both clinical expertise and lived experience to provide compassionate, grounded support tailored to your needs.
 
My clinical experience includes working with individuals navigating postpartum depression and anxiety, complex trauma, relationship and family stress, self-esteem challenges, and identity development. I have supported clients across the lifespan, including adolescents, adults, and parents, in both community mental health and private practice settings.
 
I offer a warm, down-to-earth, and supportive space where you can feel safe, accepted, and empowered. My work is trauma-informed and affirming of all identities. Together, we might explore painful memories, identity shifts, or patterns that no longer serve you but always with compassion and intention. Whether you’re navigating parenting, healing from trauma, working on self-worth, or moving through big life transitions, I’m here to help you reconnect with your voice, your values, and your strength. Therapy isn’t about “fixing” you it’s about helping you come home to yourself.

Meet the Owner Felicia!

You are not alone, and we have all had our days, months or even years where life is not serving us joy on a platter.

Therapy can be scary, and talking to a complete stranger may be even scarier but I want to provide you with the assurance you need on our first consultation to ensure your comfort! The healing you will experience with me will be free from stress. 

I truly applaud you for stopping by because this means that you are taking proactive steps towards your healing!

It takes a spirit of bravery to reach out for help. I feel it is my duty as a therapist to provide a safe and judgment-free environment the my clients can thrive in. 

I believe that optimal health includes attending to your body, mind and heart. My passion for working with adults, couples and families allows me to explore the barriers in their lives that prevent them from enjoying life to its fullest capacity.

I thank you for considering my help as your Connecticut therapist through your healing journey.
