I work with parents and families to strengthen connection, communication, and mutual understanding between parents and their children and adolescents. We focus on identifying underlying emotional and behavioral patterns, improving healthy boundaries, and developing practical strategies that support both structure and empathy in the home. My goal is to help parents feel more confident in their role while helping children and teens feel understood, supported, and capable of navigating their developmental and life challenges.

W. Katherine Redd
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Is your teen having difficulty adjusting to the aches and pains of growing up? Are they exploring who they are or pushing the boundaries as they do? Or are they struggling with transitions? Each changing situation may have an impact, whether it is moving to a new location, the beginning of a new school year, or shifting from one classroom to the next. Whatever the change, it is especially hard for children and adolescents to navigate alone.

Children and adolescents have their own issues that get in the way before becoming adults. I have been helping the young patients with these issues by unconventional hypnotherapies and they are getting resilient and recovering in no time.

Waterbury is a post-industrial Connecticut city historically known as the 'Brass City' for its dominant role in American brass and clock manufacturing industries, which have largely departed, leaving behind significant economic challenges and one of the higher poverty rates in a state that ranks among the nation's wealthiest. The city has a large Puerto Rican population, and Spanish-language therapy is an essential component of the mental health landscape alongside services for communities from across Latin America and more recently Africa. Saint Mary's Hospital and Waterbury Hospital provide behavioral health services, and community health centers serve the significant Medicaid and uninsured population. Common therapy concerns include poverty-related stress, immigration and diaspora identity, substance use (Waterbury has been significantly affected by opioids), depression, anxiety, and the compounding challenges of accessing mental health care in a struggling city still working to define itself beyond its industrial past.
