Hello, I’m Inger

You know the type of therapists they show on TV or in the movies?  The therapists who only ask you, “how does that make you feel?” and only speak in dull voices that would make anyone fall asleep? I can assure you – I am definitely not that type of therapist! 

I am enthusiastic, friendly and warm - and I am known by people around me as someone who is extremely easy to talk to. That - and a lot of training - makes me a pretty good fit to be a therapist.

My role is to listen, observe and understand your perspective. Your stories, needs, darkest hours and brightest moments take center stage in our therapy sessions. I want to hear what you have to say.

I’m not afraid to talk about the hard or awkward stuff, and I’m also not afraid to let you know when you’re limiting yourself. I often use humor to interject a new perspective.

There is no doubt about it - therapy is a lot of work. Change takes time and it takes courage. But it is so worth it!

I would love to hear your story and talk about how I can help you. Let's chat!  I invite you to schedule a free phone consultation.

I’m ready when you are…

Teen Counseling

Is this normal?

Who is this moody, strange, alien creature living in my house? And how do I talk to it?

If this sounds like you, I encourage you to read on.

My experience as a high school mental health counselor enables me to help teens deal with social and academic-induced anxiety. I teach teens coping and stress management skills that empower them to maximize academic performance, exercise self advocacy, and resolve the inevitable social snags. 

Co-Parenting and Divorce

Co-Parent Counseling

Are you worried about the effects of your divorce on your children?

As a Facilitator in Fairfield County for the Connecticut state-mandated Parent Education Class (PEP), I am experienced in teaching strategies that can reduce the harmful effects of family disruption on children. I coach parents who are in the process of divorce or who are recently divorced how to de-escalate conflict, reduce anxiety, and make the optimal parenting choices for their children.

I can work with parents together or individually. 

 
Rebuilding After Divorce
