Bipolar disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Waterbury, CT

In my practice, I specialize in providing support for individuals dealing with substance use, mood disorders, anxiety, depression, and trauma. Using evidence-based approaches such as EMDR, CBT, DBT, person-centered, and humanistic therapy, I offer a compassionate and straightforward environment where clients can explore their experiences.

Welcome — I’m Patrick Scott, and I’m passionate about helping people create meaningful, lasting change in their lives. With more than 20 years of professional experience in mental health and substance use counseling, I bring a compassionate, nonjudgmental, and results-focused approach to every client relationship. My career has been dedicated to helping individuals navigate life’s challenges, strengthen emotional wellness, overcome addiction, rebuild confidence, and move toward healthier, more fulfilling lives.

Hello, my name is Christie Jones and I am a licensed clinical independent social worker, licensed to practice in Connecticut, Massachusetts and New York. I have been clinically licensed for 12 years and have a variety of experience working with many different people from different walks of life. My approach to therapy is very direct. I am warm and compassionate and do my best to help my clients lead functional and productive lives.

I often work with people who appear to be holding things together on the outside, while internally feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or disconnected. You may have gone through experiences that still live in your body, or you might notice patterns in your life that you don’t fully understand but feel stuck in. If you’ve walked through substance use and recovery, you may find yourself in a season where staying sober isn’t the hardest part anymore—it’s the deeper emotional and relational work that feels heavy. If any of this resonates, you don’t have to navigate it alone.

I work with young adults and adults who are ready to slow down, get honest, and engage in meaningful therapeutic work at a pace that feels safe. Many of the people I support are navigating anxiety, trauma, shame, relationship stress, or major life transitions. Others come to therapy after years of surviving and are now ready to understand themselves more fully, build healthier patterns, and experience a deeper sense of emotional freedom.

My approach to therapy is collaborative and relational. I believe healing happens when you feel seen, supported, and empowered—not rushed or fixed. My work is trauma-informed and integrates evidence-based practices with a focus on helping you reconnect with yourself in a more grounded and compassionate way. If you’re looking for a therapist who will meet you where you are and walk alongside you as you do the deeper work, I would be honored to support you.

Hi, I’m Sara. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor in Connecticut, and I work with teens, young adults, and families who are dealing with anxiety, depression, life changes, and relationship challenges.

I believe every human is on their own journey of growth, self-discovery, and healing. My goal as a therapist is to walk alongside you with compassion and curiosity. Together we’ll create a space where you feel understood, supported, and able to explore your story while building the tools you need to move forward.

My approach is collaborative and flexible. I often use CBT, DBT, and Attachment-Based Family Therapy, and I tailor sessions to fit your individual needs. Clients describe me as warm, approachable, and down to earth. I try to balance understanding with practical strategies that you can use in your daily life, whether that means finding ways to manage stress, communicate better, or feel more grounded.

Outside of therapy, I find balance and renewal in nature and the outdoors. That connection to growth and change in the natural world often inspires how I view the healing process in therapy.

If you’re ready to start or continue your journey, I’d be honored to support you in creating lasting growth and connection.

I believe therapy is most effective when you feel comfortable being yourself. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard and supported while we work together toward meaningful change. I value building a genuine therapeutic relationship and believe that honesty, collaboration, and even humor have an important place in the healing process.

My clients often say they appreciate my direct, motivating, and real approach, which helps them feel like an equal in the therapy process.
