Alistair Highet
Licensed Psychoanalyst, MA, LP, NCPsyA
Being a therapist is a great privilege. I enjoy working with anyone who is eager to understand what is happening in their life and why they are struggling. Together, we'll try to understand what is creating the trouble - including perhaps some unconscious patterns that are at work - and then we'll put them in perspective, cut them down to size, and work through what can be done. I create a safe, empathic, and comfortable environment for counseling where we can talk about anything at all without judgment, and in total privacy.

Molly Toomey
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
To all those who don't fit neatly into society's norms of gender, sexuality, relationships, and cultures—this is a space for you! As a queer neurodivergent person and immigrant, I'm deeply passionate about connecting my communities to affirming, accessible mental health care. I've helped hundreds of people to get "un-stuck" from difficult pasts and repetitive cycles and to move toward clarity, connection, community, and a life they enjoy living. I'd love to help you on your own journey forward, with me by your side as your ally and co-conspirator.

CT Neuro Health
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
I strive to offer personalized support to all my patients. I am trained to specialize in working with traumatic disorders including Borderline Personality Disorder. I have also chosen to specialize in biofeedback/neurofeedback modalities to support further healing. These interventions support greater control over our stress systems to make our lives more effective. In my practice, I provide individual sessions to individuals, couples, professional supervision, and biofeedback.

Greta Carlson, Psy.D., ABPP
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
Welcome! I'm a clinical psychologist with nearly a decade of clinical experience working with children, adolescents, and adults of all ages. I see children, adolescents, and young adults aged 5 and up with depression, chronic PTSD and dissociation, anxiety, OCD, and ADHD. My clients present with a range of concerns, including anxiety, ruminative thoughts, shame feelings, and perfectionism. Having had extensive experience in both psychodynamic psychotherapy and Trauma Focused-CBT, I take an integrative approach when working with clients-I collaborate with you and your child to tailor your goals and address needs for treatment.
While we would tailor treatment to further draw out and address your goals, I work to help you get to know yourself-to name and regulate a range of feelings, identify negative beliefs about yourself, others, or the world, and find healthier ways to cope with strong feelings. I also consider how your past history is relevant to your present relationships.
The decision to seek therapy is such a courageous one. I think, oftentimes, we can tell ourselves that we can "think through" or "solve problems" entirely on our own-it's so difficult to reach out for support! I work at a pace that feels manageable for you or your child, focusing on creating a warm and collaborative alliance for therapy and assessment.

Julie Griffin
Psychologist, PsyD
I pride myself on my ability to connect with others easily and create a sense of comfort when interacting. I recognize that speaking to a complete stranger about your private experiences can feel uncomfortable and even scary. I seek to invite you into a shared space in which we can become curious together about whatever is causing you distress. Hopefully, the relationship you build with me can empower you to heal and transform the relationship you have with yourself and significant others in your life. I can help you understand what it is that you are experiencing, how you learned to navigate stressors over time, and identify ways to adjust your responses to stress in order to prioritize healthy coping and valued choices.
