Kiersten Wamser

Hi! My name is Kiersten, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Connecticut. I graduated with my Masters in 2016 from Fordham University and have been practicing for 4 years. I am currently a doctoral candidate at the University of New England in Advanced Clinical Practices. I treat clients from ages 18 and up. I have experience treating clients with anxiety, depression, life transitions, trauma and other mood disorders. I believe that there is always hope in any situation and that we can tailor any treatment to meet your needs.

I have a breadth of experience in treating mood and personality disorders, trauma and women's issues. I am certified in Dialectical Behavior Therapy and I also utilize Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Trauma Focused Therapy, Christian Based Therapy, Acceptance and commitment therapy, and Solutions Focused Brief Therapy. I will explore with you what treatment and plan is based tailored to meet your needs.

The first session can be the hardest as we'll start with a brief introduction to each other while beginning to explore the challenges you are facing. I understand that it can be scary to open up to someone new and I want to remind you that this is a relationship so we will take time to get to know each other in our future sessions while creating a plan that fits your needs. I have an empathetic approach to clients. We are in this together to improve your life.
