Our clinicians are therapists in Branford, CT
In 2008, Deb applied for a counseling job at a Neurology Medical Practice and was interviewed by their senior Neuropsychologist, Amy. Deb got the job, and the rest is history. They instantly connected and began a professional relationship, personal friendship, and commitment to discovering the potential in every client they work with. Amy is a self-proclaimed “brain geek” while Deb is a mindfulness and trauma expert. Together, they are the brains behind the Center for Neuropotential.
After founding the Center for NeuroPotential, Amy and Deb quickly realized that their services were in high demand. They were excited to add additional clinicians as well as neurofeedback technicians!
People come to me because they feel that somehow their brain just isn’t working the way it’s supposed to. I love putting the pieces together for clients to help them see the bigger picture. Knowledge is power, and with that knowledge we can collaborate to form an individualized treatment plan. A cornerstone for helping others reach their potential is through the use of neurofeedback, and I am proud to be a board-certified neurofeedback provider and to have earned diplomate status in QEEG analysis.
When not in the office, you likely will find me out for a run, reading a book, or searching on Pinterest for the next recipe I want to try. My two little girls keep me laughing every day, and help me appreciate the silliness in life.
I love listening to people’s stories and supporting the healing process of reassembling pieces that no longer fit well. My role is as a guide, supporting healing from trauma and difficult life events.
I hold Diplomat status as a Trauma specialist, am a certified Yoga Therapist, hold EMDR certification, and I am proud to be a board-certified neurofeedback provider.
As a Trauma Specialist, I served as the Newtown Clinical Recovery Leader following the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in 2012.
In my free-time, you are likely to find me walking in nature, playing with my nieces and nephews or practicing yoga. I devote myself to being centered and finding time to laugh, to breathe, to move and for quiet reflection to foster brain health and well-being.
I am a Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT).
I think about healing as a deeply personal and unique contextual experience that we get to define for ourselves. I offer curiosity with intention to explore together what this may mean to a client within this particular moment in time. My approach is collaborative, relational, and integrative with emphasis on building connection and safety in order to co-create experiences of change. I believe as new experiences emerge and past experiences integrate, we begin to free and expand our own resources for healing. I love to celebrate these moments of discovery in our sessions.
I have experience working with individuals, couples, and families and use a systemic, relational lens. I consider both the interpersonal and intrapersonal aspects as well as brain and body cohesion.
When I am not in the office, you can find me spending time with my nephew and puppy. They both remind, challenge, and teach me about the creativity, joy, and expansiveness that lives in the moment.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with a background in Expressive Therapies specializing in Music Therapy.
Empathy has always been a driving force in my life, setting me on the path to become a professional counselor. I love being a part of the therapeutic process, helping support my clients on their journey of healing and growth. Being able to add music and the arts to this process has opened all kinds of doors to further enhance treatment, and with a strength based approach I am always looking for the best modality to support my clients needs and provide the safest and most comfortable environment possible.
When I am not in the office, you can typically find me doing something physically active, playing video games, creating music, entertaining my two cats, or enjoying time with my wife and family.
As an EMDR trained therapist, I am proud to gently guide my clients towards wellness by
helping to unlock natural brain’s capacity to heal. The human brain is naturally equipped to heal itself and move towards wellness. A traumatic event can disrupt this process and cause trauma
to become locked in the brain, causing disturbance even years after that traumatic event. I am also a psychiatric nurse practitioner and treat my clients holistically using biopsychosocial approach.
I my free time you can find me spending time with my children, who keep amazing me, walking in the nature, or dancing Argentine tango.
I believe the therapeutic relationship is a vital component of the healing process and I strive to create an environment characterized by empathy, trust, and respect. My goal is to collaborate with clients in setting achievable goals and fostering positive change. I am dedicated to helping clients develop effective coping strategies, enhance their self-awareness, and cultivate a greater sense of empowerment. As an LPC-A, I am committed to upholding the highest ethical standards and maintaining a continual process of professional growth. I regularly engage in supervision and pursue ongoing education to stay informed about the latest developments in the field of mental health. In my free time, I love practicing piano, walking along the beach, and traveling with my husband and three sons.
I deeply value the meaningful connections formed through therapy, and I feel honored to be entrusted with my clients’ personal journeys. Creating safe, welcoming spaces for individuals to feel seen and heard is central to my work, my approach is rooted in a person-centered care that honors each individual’s unique journey.
I have experience working with individuals across diverse identities and backgrounds, which has enriched my understanding and empathy for the unique challenges each person faces. In addition to my passion for fostering resilience and growth, I believe in the power of curiosity and continuous learning, frequently researching new insights to enhance my practice.
Outside of therapy, I find joy in spending time outdoors, sharing moments with friends and family, and exploring interests that deepen my connection to the world around me.
I am a licensed clinical psychologist specializing in diagnostic assessments for autism and other co-occurring conditions. Neurodiversity is professional and personal for me, both as a psychologist and as a parent. My goal is to welcome you and your child into a space where you can be free to be yourself without judgement. During the evaluation process, you’ll learn about your child’s differences and strengths. My goal is to have the diagnostic process be a positive experience for my clients and their loved ones.
In my free time, you can find me exploring the shoreline with my husband and 2 young daughters. I like spending time in nature, going for walks with my goldendoodle, and practicing yoga.
