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.

Debra Nelson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I understand that your life is complex and there are various demands and expectations at different life stages that can be impacted by situational and mental health struggles. It's important to be mindful of the interaction between those demands and your stage of life.
My experiences are diverse. I have worked for over twenty years with individuals, couples, and groups across the lifespan and socioeconomic spectrum by providing a range of clinical services including assessment, consultation, and psychotherapy. I know how challenging asking for help can be and I strive to work collaboratively with clients, both validating your feelings and experiences while helping you to uncover patterns and obstacles that are holding you back from reaching your goals.
I seek to provide treatment in an integrative way, utilizing Solution-Focused, Interpersonal, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Using these modalities we will focus not just on difficulties, but on areas of strength and positive coping mechanisms. As part of my work, I am always happy to collaborate with medical doctors, attorneys, in-home therapeutic teams, and school systems to ensure that all providers working with you or your family are in sync with the goals you are striving to achieve.

Sarah Gersick
Psychologist, Ph.D.
When new stressors arise, they can activate old patterns that make it hard to cope in a healthy way. It helps to have a place to talk through what is happening in your life today while also working to understand how the past is informing the present. I am an experienced psychodynamic psychologist who can help you do both, so you can reduce distress you are feeling now, and make deep changes that lead to better coping in the future.

Jamilet Calderon
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC-D
With over 14 years of clinical experience, I specialize in helping women and first-generation/Latina professionals break cycles of codependency, quiet perfectionism, and reclaim their identity. Many of my clients appear to have it all together on the outside, but internally face overwhelming cultural expectations, anxiety, and a loud inner critic. Together, we will work to restructure that inner critic, establish fierce boundaries, and foster a radical sense of self-love.
