Chananya Abraham
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, MS, LPC
Hello! I am a licensed psychotherapist with two office locations in Connecticut and offers secure remote sessions for clients throughout Connecticut and Florida. I specialize in working with teenagers, young adults, and their families, supporting individuals as they navigate life transitions, relationship challenges, anxiety, trauma, and addiction-related concerns. I have a particular passion for working with recent high school and college graduates, as well as parents of teenagers and adult children who are struggling with identity, confidence, and major life transitions. My work is grounded in helping people strengthen their relationship with themselves and with the people who matter most.

Louise Perry
Registered Psychotherapist, IFS UKCP HCCP
I've spent over thirty years helping people make sense of complexity.
Today I work as an Integrative Arts Psychotherapist and Internal Family Systems (IFS) practitioner, helping people make the invisible visible. Whether someone comes because they're anxious, overwhelmed, caught in painful relationship patterns or simply feels stuck, I'm interested in helping them understand themselves more clearly by noticing the patterns they couldn't previously see.
Before retraining as a psychotherapist, I spent many years in design and technology. That background continues to shape how I work. I'm naturally curious about patterns, systems and the relationships between different parts of a person's life. Sometimes we simply talk. Sometimes images, objects or simple creative materials help make sense of experiences that words alone can't fully describe. There is never any expectation to be artistic.
I work in an active, collaborative way. I won't rush you towards solutions, but neither will I sit back and simply listen. Together we'll become curious about what's happening beneath the surface so that, once those patterns become visible, different choices become possible.

Colette Pauta
Counselor/Therapist
If you're looking for someone who will truly listen and help you feel heard and seen, my goal is to offer a space where you don't have to filter or perform. I take a warm, relational, and collaborative approach to therapy, meeting you where you're at with curiosity and care. I believe that humor has a place in healing, and when used thoughtfully, it can make difficult conversations feel less intimidating and more human. My work is trauma-informed and grounded in understanding how your experiences, relationships, and environment shape the challenging you're facing. Together, we'll explore patterns, build insight, and develop practical tools that feel relevant to your everyday life. Therapy with me is not about having all the answers, it's about creating space to slow down, reflect, and move forward with greater clarity and self-trust. Whether you're thinking about therapy for the first time, or have been in the counseling space before, I welcome the opportunity to get to know who you are at your core.

Dr. Joe Rustum
Psychologist, PsyD, License Psychologist
I work with high achievers, professionals, executives, and driven individuals who look capable on the outside but feel overwhelmed, self-critical, or stuck in constant overthinking. You may be managing career pressure, anxiety, burnout, perfectionism, procrastination, relationship stress, or difficulty setting boundaries. Even when things look successful from the outside, it can feel exhausting to keep pushing while privately second-guessing yourself.
My approach is practical, direct, and focused on helping you make meaningful changes in your day-to-day life. We will work on understanding the patterns that keep you stuck, building confidence in your decisions, improving boundaries, managing stress more effectively, and creating a healthier relationship with work, achievement, and responsibility. The goal is not just insight, but real progress.

Susan Spicer
Psychologist, PhD
I specialize in EMDR therapy to help individuals heal from trauma and narcissistic abuse, and to return to a place of self-love and emotional balance. Experiences of childhood physical, emotional or sexual abuse can remain stuck in the body, as can instances of narcissistic abuse. These have the potential to contribute to symptoms of depression, anxiety, and hypervigilance as well as problems successfully navigating relationships and managing daily living. I utilize EMDR therapy to change the way these negative memories are stored in the brain, and help you achieve a place of resolution and peace. As a neuropsychologist, I can help you condition your thoughts and rewire your brain for happiness and success.
