Mary Montany
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and I have been in Private Practice since 2002. I rely on a variety of modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral and Rational Emotive Therapy. I truly believe we can change our negative patterns of behaviors and I have witnessed positive results. Whether you are faced with a challenging situation or on-going concerns, it can be very beneficial to have a professional's perspective to help navigate through these opportunities for change and growth. I also am a Certified Hypnotherapist, and we can discuss if hypnosis would be part of an effective treatment plan for you. I have been told that I am a professional and compassionate therapist and I would find it a privilege to work with you toward improving the quality of your life.

Tina Henderson
Tina Henderson, MA, LCSW I am a licensed psychotherapist in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut. I have been a behavioral health provider since 2010, with a specialty in substance abuse, ACOAs, co-dependency and addictions. I have experience working with recovering individuals in all three clinical treatment settings, including detox, rehab and outpatient. I have also worked within a variety of behavioral health models including assertive community treatment (ACT), an intervention model designed to address issues of non-compliance with treatment. My expertise includes psychotherapy techniques that address the symptoms of depression, anxiety and mood disorders that addicts attempt to self-medicate by misuse of illicit substances and other addictive activities such as compulsive Internet use and gambling. In my psychotherapy practice, I use interventions such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and motivational interviewing that are evidence based. My interests include innovative psycho-social and non-clinical interventions for addiction treatment and codependency. I consult on a wide variety of addiction topics including the stages of change, treatment options, relapse prevention, interpersonal boundaries, co-occurring disorders, co-dependency and family systems communication. I strongly believe that the interpersonal problems associated with all types of addictions can be resolved. Through Internet communications and individual psychotherapy, I intend to spread this positive recovery message to everyone looking for answers.

Anna Smyth
Life can be difficult and no one gets by without some pain at different points in their life. I work with individuals, couples and families to identify and change how they are interacting to achieve better relationships and outcomes-to help you lead happier, healthier, more contented lives. I enjoy working with people on the myriad of issues during the course of a relationship and family life--in life in general. I'm also dedicated to working with addictions issues and recovery from any addictions issues. Let's meet and discuss how we can work together to meet your goals. I have been married for 29 years and have 32 years of recovery myself. I hope to have many more years of both. I find many people have had addiction issues touch their life in some way. I'm dually licensed in Marriage/Family Therapy and Drug and Alcohol Counseling. I am certified in Co-Occurring Disorders of mental health and addictions and I am a Certified Recover Coach. I am also certified in Medication Assisted Treatment to work with individuals on medications to assist their recovery process. My office can accommodate families or groups and is quite cozy.

Gina Chiara
A strong and trusting client-therapist relationship is the key to successful therapy. My clients tell me I am non-judgmental, trustworthy and have helped them tremendously. I am sensitive to people's unique personalities, stressors and pace, so I work according to your needs. I have a lot of experience working with people who have symptoms of anxiety, depression, low self- esteem, distractibility, phobias and obsessions. These symptoms are often the result of negative or traumatic experiences which, can rewire the brain, making it hard to cope. One of the therapies I am skilled in is EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) which rewires the brain and restores it to balance. People can then heal deep wounds and rebuild their lives. The goal of therapy is not to change you, but to build awareness, acceptance, and ultimately empowerment to realize your full potential. You may be scared, hesitant or have lost hope, but I encourage you to call, so we can work together on your journey to a better life.

Adam Russo
Adam Russo is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). Adam has a Masters Degree in Professional Counseling from Central CT State University, spending roughly 8.5 years being educated and supervised in the behavioral health arena. In total, Adam has over 20 years experience as either an educator, instructor, and mental health worker. Adam is licensed to talk about people's strengths and challenges and help them develop solutions, strategies, or insight into their current situations. Professional Counselors typically have a strong background in treating physical and mental health disabilities and excel in many forms of individual and group psychotherapy. They also have typically a strong focus on vocational counseling since much of your identity and purpose lays both in the work that you do and the people you positively influence in your life. Adam also spent seven total years in the United States Navy both active duty and ready reserves and had the rare honor of being a recipient of an Admiral's Citation. After receiving his honorable discharge, he received his Associates degree from Middlesex Community College and Bachelors Degree from Charter Oak State College in Criminal Justice; receiving the Sergeant Dingwall State Award for Academic Excellence (an award NOT given out annually in the state). Adam had extensive crisis intervention experience as a Shift Coordinator for a Residential Treatment Facility for serious juvenile offenders. He completed his three semester graduate internship experience at the Rocky Hill Veterans' Home at both their immediate care and former substance rehabilitation programs. Adam also worked as a Lead Counselor for a leading outpatient counseling family for mostly mandated clients and then as an Intensive In-Home Child and Adolescent Psychiatric Service (IICAPS Yale Program for children that may be at risk for inpatient hospitalization) Clinician for a leading child psychotherapy provider. Most recently Adam has worked as a counselor at a nearby hospital in their adult acute psychiatric inpatient department (“Psych Ward”) helping individuals with acute psychiatric challenges. Some interesting facts about Adam: He worked for the Transportation Security Administration He traveled the world as a Fire Control Technician in the Navy Obtained a Jr. Black Belt in Parker Kenpo Karate as a junior in high school Is a little bit of a nerd! Love electronics, carpentry, mechanics, and electrical Adam is a proud father and has been together with his wife for over 12 years! Why is all of this important? It has been determined by several research studies (Miller, Duncan, & Hubble,1997; Miller, Hubble, & Duncan, 1995) that the model and technique a therapist uses only constitutes 15% of overall therapeutic outcomes. 40% was attributed to extra-therapeutic factors (income, transportation, etc.) and 30% was due to the therapeutic relationship you have with your counselor! That means first a foremost, your therapist should to be obtainable (e.g. close by, attainable) and perhaps most importantly MUST be someone you like, trust, and think can help you! Does your therapist have a similar culture? Is gender of your therapist important when it comes to trust or previous traumatic experience? Is the model they are practicing in line with your belief system? (e.g. are you the expert of your own life or is the person you are going to be seeing?) This stuff is really important!
