Kaitlyn received her master’s degree from the University of Saint Joseph and completed her clinical training in school-based counseling, child welfare advocacy and in direct clinical practices throughout Connecticut.

She assures her clinical practice is tailored directly to the individual needs of the patient. Kaitlyn specializes in treating anxiety, depression, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), perfectionism, peer relationships, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Kaitlyn’s clinical strength derives in her ability to connect with those she works with. She invests with her heart and is guided by her knowledge.

Kaitlyn’s approach is centered on empirically supported treatment modalities such as Psychotherapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Play Therapy, Strength Based, Exposure Response Prevention (ERP), and Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT). She provides skills training focusing on the core skills of mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness.

Above all, Kaitlyn is a down-to-earth, compassionate, and non-judgmental therapist who uses a solution-focused, strengths-based approach to help clients work through their challenges and live a life they love. Clients often see a reduction of symptoms early on in treatment.
