About
Perhaps you are feeling like you could use some guidance to help you manage difficult circumstances, grief, or loss. Perhaps lately you have been feeling like there's something missing in your life, as if you have lost your way. Perhaps you are at a crossroads and you're looking for a time and place to reflect and reconnect with yourself...
I am Dr. Marcano-Davis, a Connecticut-based licensed Clinical Psychologist with over 30 years of experience in the field of mental health. I hold a doctorate degree in Clinical Psychology from Duquesne University. Through extensive studies and training, my approach to psychotherapy is deeply rooted in existential/humanistic and Buddhist philosophies that include an array of treatment modes such as psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, dialectical-behavioral, narrative, insight-oriented, and mindfulness-based stress reduction therapy.
My approach to therapy is integrative and will help you reach your potential and thrive fully as you develop effective coping skills and new perspectives. I offer psychotherapy services in English and in Spanish to individuals seeking support and guidance to alleviate and overcome problems related to stress, anxiety, grief, depression, or difficult life-adjustment times. Each therapy is individualized to meet each person's lived experiences, specific struggles, and goals.
Your struggles do not need to define you or your life. Therapy can help you gain a sense of well-being and contentment, thereby improving the quality of your life in ways that are sustainable and authentic to who you are. Psychotherapy is a highly personal journey that will help you create the life that you seek and deserve. You are worth it.
