Hello and welcome! My name is Jeff Gagliardi, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker specializing in the areas of anxiety, depression, chronic illness and life coaching. I also have significant experience working with clients dealing with behavioral addiction such as gambling and technology use. I leverage my background in finance to counsel clients about financial issues, which often can negatively impact peoples' mental health. I have my Master's of Social Work and Doctorate of Social Work degrees from Southern Connecticut State University. I have been a clinician for six years after leaving a career in finance, and I’m incredibly grateful that I have the opportunity to help people overcome challenges in their lives. I recently began focusing on my private practice work full-time after leaving an intensive outpatient treatment facility where I worked with clients with a broad range of mental health diagnoses. My therapeutic approach involves using positive psychology, which focuses on developing a person’s strengths to allow them to create a greater sense of well-being. My goal is not just to help people survive life, but to help them thrive. Building a healthy counseling relationship is critical for the therapeutic process to be successful. I recognize that finding a counselor is an incredibly important and personal decision. If for any reason an individual does not connect with my approach, I will assist them with finding a therapist that is a better fit for them. I do everything I can to connect with people I work with and help them to feel comfortable and safe. I regularly ask for feedback on how clients feel counseling is progressing so I can make any adjustments that are necessary to improve the process. In our work together, we will determine the goals you are looking to achieve in therapy and establish a plan to achieve them. Every client is unique, and I tailor counseling interventions to each specific person. Most importantly, I will learn about you and support you while we go through this transformative process together. I am continually seeking out new approaches that can help people develop healthier coping strategies and habits, and I then relay these ideas to my clients. I applaud you for taking this step to improve your life and I hope that I can be a person to help guide you on your journey.

Hello! If you are exploring Better Help, it is likely that you are struggling with something significant in your life. Finding the right person to help you through these challenges is very important. If you don't have a good relationship with your counselor, you won't make the progress you are hoping to achieve. I want to provide you with some information about me in order to help you decide if my experience and style is the right match for you. I have been a social worker for more than 12 years and have experience working with people from all different backgrounds who are struggling with a wide variety of challenges. Much of my experience has been working with people who are struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, LGBTQ+ issues, substance abuse, and the challenges of parenting. The feedback I receive from clients is that they find me to be caring and nonjudgmental, and they appreciate that I am honest and direct with them. You can expect me to walk with you through whatever difficulties you are facing and help you learn more about yourself and the way you interact with the world. I can interact with you in whatever manner you are most comfortable. I find it helpful to participate in video sessions so that we can get to know each other better. But I am also available to you via phone and text if that is more comfortable for you. A majority of my availability is in the evenings and on the weekends but I check messages at least once during each weekday. I know how hard it can be to find a counselor who you feel a connection with and I would be honored to work with you through this stage of your life.

Overall, I have expertise in trauma, mood disorders, grief, career counseling, relationship matters and geriatrics to name a few. I do not see couples- although I can counsel on relationship matters. Clients will be addressed with utmost respect. I do encourage clients to use the forum to share updates or matters that come up during the day or between sessions.

Hello, my name is Janeen! I have a Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling and am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Connecticut, a National Certified Counselor (NCC), and a Life and Health and Wellness Coach. I have 10 years of experience working with adults and adolescents who have experienced trauma and crisis, life changes and relationship issues. I provide a safe and trusting environment for my clients to explore distressing emotions and life’s challenges. You deserve to live a meaningful, joyful and fulfilling life and I believe you have the strengths to achieve this. My role is to be your partner in this journey. My approach is client centered, trauma informed, solution focused, and cognitive behavioral. I am a good listener and am very curious about each of my clients own individual stories. I am a facilitator, helping my clients discover who they are, what they want out of life, and develop skills to cope and conquer their challenges. I help my clients feel in control of their life and feel hopeful. Because every client is unique I use a variety of counseling interventions. I help clients discover what thoughts and limiting beliefs may be holding them back (cognitive behavioral techniques) and help my clients cope with challenges (DBT). I use a trauma informed approach to provide a safe place for my clients to explore emotions and am EMDR trained by the EMDR Institute. I use narrative therapy to help clients write their story and use solution focused approaches to help clients set goals to gain control and move forward in their lives.

Hi there! My name is Jill Markowitz and I have been practicing for the last 5 years as a LMHC (Licensed Mental Health Counselor). I have experience working with various populations - the LGBTQ+ community as well as with clients who are experiencing depression, anxiety, grief and a difficult time with life transitions. My role as your therapist is twofold; a) to listen to your concerns and provide you with a safe space to speak about your thoughts and feelings without feeling judged and b) provide you with new tools for your toolbox that you can carry with you even after we stop working together. My ultimate goal throughout this process is to get you to talk through all of your thoughts and feelings, help you be able to understand them better and get you to a better place mentally, emotionally and physically. When I start working with a new client, I let them know that throughout this process, I view them as the experts in their own lives, relying on them to provide me with insight into themselves, and together with my clinical knowledge, we can work together on reaching the goals we set forth. Therapy is a collaborative venture, one that is a process and takes time to see change. Additionally, there might be some moments where you come upon difficult truths about yourself or your situation. Just keep in mind this is all part of the journey we are on together. I look forward to working to with you and helping you work through whatever obstacles are currently in your way!

I am a licensed clinical psychologist in Connecticut. I have worked in varied settings for over 30 years with people encountering social, emotional and behavioral difficulties. I have also been a certified school psychologist for over 20 years, so I have considerable experience with parents, especially those whose children have disabilities of all kinds. I use an eclectic approach that begins with a focus on the individual (e.g., feelings, thoughts/beliefs, actions & health). But, I also consider other factors that influence one’s well-being (e.g., family, relationships, work, societal pressures). I listen well and always strive to be compassionate and encouraging with people when they seek healing and self-improvement. I emphasize increasing one's understanding, coping, and problem-solving skills. Often, that is done by building on strengths and resources the individual might not realize that they have. I’ve also been known to use humor from time to time because I believe that some ha-ha! moments can become ah-hah! moments. Plus, a smile or laugh can make you feel better.

I am excited for you that you've chosen to take a step towards healing. It can be scary to face your own judgments and fears. I also think some of the most beautiful experiences come from when we truly embrace our most authentic selves and it requires true strength and bravery to show up for yourself in your most authentic way vulnerabilities and all. I know what it feels like to be lost, broken, confused, or frustrated in life. Together we can help you strengthen your abilities to cope with the twist and turns of life. Don't feel like you currently have any abilities to cope? Don't worry we can find them in you and develop them too. I believe in the healing nature of secure relationships. When you engage in therapy it's my goal to create a safe environment for you to express and explore your story. This helps us both better understand what's happening that brought you to therapy. I work compassionately while monitoring my own life experiences and judgments to ensure I am showing up for you in the most authentic and helpful way. I welcome feedback on our work so I can improve how I work with you. Therapy with me is very collaborative, I listen and gather information, and then listen more. I want to understand you and your unique struggles. Our work together will focus on your goals and help you see improvements in the things that matter most to you. We can identify ways to cope more effectively and change old-held beliefs for a more adaptive outlook on life. My work experience has a vast range. I've worked in homes with developmentally disabled adults, residential, day treatment, and intensive outpatient substance abuse rehabilitation centers, working on the streets with our homeless and those with severe persistent mental illness, in private practice, community mental health agencies, and in schools. Because of the various environments and unique people in each environment, I have been blessed to meet, work with, and alongside some truly amazing people. I have worked with ages 5 to 80+ years of age. I was born and raised in Provo Utah and went to New York University for graduate school. Having spent time in two very different environments I have again been exposed to a variety of backgrounds which has made my life richer. I love to travel, I have visited England and India while seeing the inside of airports in Germany and Iceland so far. I hope to add Italy, Ireland, and Scotland to the list soon. My friends and family describe me as warm, friendly, silly, passionate, and easy to talk to. I have often said to my clients, I may be the one with a fancy paper on the wall, but you are the expert in your life, with the ability to enact the most amazing changes. Sometimes we just have to have some guidance, support, and unconditional love and acceptance. I think you should always feel comfortable with your therapist, If you meet me and decide I am not the right fit, that is fine I would encourage you to find the therapist that is the right fit. It's when we feel supported and safe that we are better able to explore and enact lasting change in our lives.
