Kelly Bronk, LCSW — Therapist in Connecticut

Hi there, I'm Kelly!

I provide a supportive space for you to process your thoughts and feelings as you work on your desired goals, such as to gain insight, improve relationships, manage stress and anxiety, develop life-skills, and gain the skills necessary to lead a positive and healthy lifestyle.

My focus

Embarking on the journey of connecting with a therapist requires considerable courage, and I commend you for taking this important step. My mission is to assist individuals in navigating life's challenges and fostering personal growth by utilizing both evidence-based techniques and a touch of humor.

My approach

Everyone encounters situations and experiences that can be both stressful and overwhelming. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people understand how one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors influence each other. CBT has had great success in promoting positive change and improving one's emotional well-being.

My communication style

As a therapist, I subscribe to the following qualities: patience, understanding, compassion, and empathy. In addition, I am an active listener, promote a nonjudgmental approach, and provide a supportive environment.

My journey to mental healthcare

Throughout my professional career, I have assisted individuals in developing and utilizing healthy coping skills, fostering independence, promoting self-awareness, building resilience, and developing healthy decision-making skills.

My goals for you

We will work together to identify goals that are important to you. Your thoughts regarding your goals, progress, and plan are a vital part of treatment. In addition to providing support and encouragement, we will work together to monitor your progress.

Our first session

In the first session, we will discuss your reasons for seeking treatment, your background, and your goals for treatment. Importantly, we will use this time to get to know one another.
