Linda Michlin Ludwig
Psychologist, Ph.D.
My training (Yale University Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology; four-year postdoctoral Certificate in Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy) is broad and varied. I currently practice individual therapy and group therapy, both online. My approach to working with you will depend to a great degree on what you are seeking. Some people benefit from brief treatment; others seek and benefit from a deeper and longer exploration. I believe the combination of individual and group therapy can be particularly beneficial for many people. My work is guided as much by my own years of personal therapy and psychoanalysis as by my formal education.

5 Pointes Wellness
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC, ACS, CST
Hi, I’m Tammy Wagstaff, a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 25 years of experience helping people navigate life’s hardest moments. I believe therapy should feel like a safe conversation—one where you don’t have to filter your thoughts or carry the weight alone. My approach is compassionate, holistic, and grounded in real-life strategies that support healing and growth.
Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship struggles, or questions around intimacy and identity, I create a nonjudgmental space where you can explore what’s going on and move toward feeling more connected—to yourself and to others.
You don’t have to have it all figured out to begin. If you're ready to take that first step, I’m here to walk alongside you.

Kelley Hopkins-Alvarez
Licensed Professional Counselor, Couples & Sex Therapy, Discernment Counselor, Healing Separation, Co-Parenting, Non-Adversarial Divorce Support
My clients are couples and co-parents that are dealing with communication issues. I offer them a peaceful and private setting where we develop actionable small steps that they feel they can take to improve how they respond to the negative communication cycles and triggers they are experiencing. I help each of them to take ownership of changes that they each can make rather then blame their partner or co-parent.
Please see my Services, Qualifications and Testimonials page on kelleyhopkinsalvarez.com to learn more.
I also incorporate stress-reduction, mindfulness strategies in my work with you. I have trained with mindfulness masters Pema Chodron, Kristen Neff and Christopher Germer. Mindfulness helps you to regulate your emotions and lower your stress response, all which helps you to manage conflict and make better decisions in your relationship.I believe that when you continue to incorporate positive aspects into your life that you both can begin to "rewire" the ways in which you think and behave with each other.
At times, it's necessary to some take some time to slow down and just take a breath, in doing so, blood pressure and heart rate lowers and you have more power to think clearly.
My office is also very relaxing, which fosters a therapeutic feel, allowing you, the clients, to become more at ease to share what's most important to you.
Take a look at my YouTube channel to learn more about my approach to work with you: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCoGaGLogaG1b7dhJjOj5rOw
I look forward to speaking with you to discuss what your needs are and how we can work collaboratively to develop a plan that works for you.

Jen Johnston Collaborative Change Counseling and Wellness
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LCSW, LMHC
We are an open and affirming group of therapy providers offering counseling sessions to clients in Connecticut, Massachusetts, and New York. We are a group of providers passionate about working with individuals who want to create their life worth living.
A specialty of our group is working with individuals who are part of the LGBTQ+ community, either around sexual and gender identity questions directly or around other mental health issues, such as depression and anxiety, that are informed by sexual and gender identity. We work with many individuals who are gender non-conforming, transgender, or gender queer, as well as their families. We make no assumptions about your or your child's gender when you come to our practice, but rather our goal is to listen and help you navigate how best to move forward either individually or as a family. Part of our work also encompasses queer relationship counseling, as well as non-traditional relationships, such as open and polyamorous relationships.
Another primary speciality area of ours is offering evidenced based treatment, including Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, for emotion and behavior regulation. Clients come to us struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, mood swings, attention and organization difficulties, and/or self injury. We provide practice tools, skills and techniques to manage thoughts, feelings, and behaviors more effectively. We are focused on providing effective care for anyone who wants to make change in their life and reduce suffering.
