Amy M. Blazawski, MSW, LCSW-

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker supporting residents within the State of Connecticut, with over 25 years of professional work experience. I have experience with various therapeutic idioms addressing: Stress /Anxiety/Panic Attacks; Depression; LGBTQ-Related /Coming Out/Safe Zones Issues; Trauma Informed /Sensitive Concerns; Addiction; Eating Disorders; and Individual & Family Work w/ individuals with Disabilities such as ID & Autism. I work with Families & Individuals in a solution-focused, person centered manner to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. I've used creative modalities in my work including music, art, movement, and adventure therapies to strengthen my approach to assisting individuals with "breakthrough moments", and overall improved mental health and wellness. I sincerely believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, while always considering and embracing cultural and personal diversity. My treatment approaches are varied based on the unique and specific needs of individuals using a cognitive behavioral approach that embraces positive personal change within a Safe Zone for all. It's difficult to ask for help sometimes, so choosing the right therapist is extremely important to experience success in the domains of talk-therapy. I offer a relaxed and comfortable environment where growth, learning, re-framing, and healing may take shape in one's life.
