Clinical Therapy
Individual therapy in Manchester, CT involves meeting regularly with a trained mental health professional to work through challenges related to thoughts, emotions, behaviors, beliefs, or difficult life experiences. At The Light House, our licensed clinicians provide one-on-one counseling in a safe and confidential environment, tailoring the therapy process to meet each individual’s unique needs.
