Online Women therapists in Connecticut

We see patients both in-person and online. ​  

With extensive experience in providing individual, group, and family psychotherapy to clients across various age groups, including children, adolescents, adults, and the elderly, I am dedicated to delivering high-quality services and supporting my clients and their families. I believe we all encounter challenges, and I'm committed to offering a guiding hand through the journeys you embark upon. My psychotherapy services are available in both English and Spanish.  

All sessions are online via my HIPPA compliant video telehealth platform. You can enjoy attending sessions from the comfort of the environment of your choosing with the added benefit of no additional time needed for a commute.  

Does this sound familiar? You want to feel peaceful and content, but instead you are feeling: overwhelmed by stress, totally burned out, or even debilitated by anxiety. It’s been hard for you to manage the emotional toll of constant and often unrealistic demands. You can rarely find a moment to stop and catch your breath. Each day feels like you are being stretched a bit thinner and you wonder how much you have left to give. Life doesn’t have to go on this way. Hi, I’m Dr. Jennifer McManus and I help ambitious women find relief from stress, burnout, anxiety, and deep emotional pain. It is my mission to provide scientifically informed psychotherapy without sacrificing compassion and genuine concern.  

I am currently offering tele-therapy through a secure video platform. Let's navigate this together! I am now accepting new clients.  

Managing life's various stressors can be overwhelming. This is especially true is you are also contending with mental health or substance use challenges. Therapy can be a useful tool for navigating challenging circumstances, exploring and processing your thoughts and emotions, and taking meaningful action that is consistent with your goals and values. It is an opportunity to tend to your emotional wellbeing within an environment characterized by understanding, compassion, and empathy. If I can support you in moving toward your personal goals and making meaningful, sustainable change, I would be glad to talk with you about how we can work together.  

Hi! Are you dealing with stress, going through a bit of a rough patch, or just need someone to talk to? Whether it's managing anxiety, healing old wounds, feeling misunderstood, or facing the unique challenges life throws at you, I'm here to support you.  

I see clients across the US and internationally. I address anxiety, life transitions, stress, family and relational dynamics, and trauma, and also welcome those without a specific diagnosis who are simply striving for improved well-being. The journey can be challenging to navigate alone, but recognizing the need for support is the first courageous step towards breaking free from stagnation and experiencing genuine, transformative change. If you're motivated for change but need support finding your path, I'm here.  

I specialize in cognitive-behavioral therapy for OCD and related disorders. I received training in the treatment of OCD at McLean Hospitals Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder Institute as well as the Institute of Living's Anxiety Disorders Center. In addition to working with folks who have OCD, I also work with individuals struggling with other forms of anxiety such as generalized anxiety disorder.

I am accepting new clients and offering TeleTherapy through safe, HIPAA compliant video sessions.

Psychological Testing.

I offer teletherapy in MN plus 39 states. This allows you convenience and therapy from the comfort of your own home.  

When you crave a fulfilling relationship but find yourself feeling burned out, disappointed by your dating experiences, or anxious about your current relationship, you may feel hopeless about your romantic future. You may start to question yourself and think, Am I ever going to figure this out? Will I ever be satisfied with my love life? What am I doing wrong? When you long to feel secure but often find yourself filled with self-doubt and feeling “not good enough”, it can be draining and isolating. You are sick of feeling stuck and deep down, you know there has to be a better way, but you’re just not sure what it is. I specialize in helping women struggling with dating and relationship challenges, low self-worth, and/or anxiety to tap into their strengths and thrive. An important component of our work together is supporting you in building tools to improve your relationship with yourself so that you can feel confident about dating and the future of your relationships. I'm currently offering virtual sessions. If you would like to learn more about how I can help you, call or email me to book a free phone consultation.  

Although I see clients in person if you live close to me in NC, I am "authorized" to see clients through Teletherapy by PsyPact, which lets me work with folks in all PsyPact states. I see individuals and couples (who sometimes aren't in the same place!) on my platform, and there is an "ease" that I don't think people expect. My core theory approach is Interpersonal Psychotherapy (combined with CBT, Gestalt, attention to lifestyle, spiritual life and career). I use testing to give us a "quickstart", namely the MBTI, FIRO/B, and Strong Interest Inventory. I also have a list of "handouts" (You wouldn't guess that I've been a professor in Counseling Psychology, would you?!) and a model called the Interpersonal Flexibility Circle that I've developed to more clearly see concretely how relationships really work. All of these methods support our work and are teletherapy friendly. All of them support both individual and relationship therapy (even your relationship with all ages of your SELF!) I use an approach that helps people to rather quickly recognize how their "stuck challenges" and defenses have been "safety maneuvers" for perhaps their whole lives. How enlightening and empowering!  

I provide appointments via telehealth to eliminate the stress of traffic and commute time and for those limited by time constraints, mobility or distance.  

I am a member of PsyPact and can provide telehealth services for individuals who reside in Colorado and PsyPact states.  

I offer the option of online therapy for Florida residents, and residents of states included in Psypact. In person sessions in Naples are available on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. In person sessions in Miami are available on Fridays and Saturdays.
