Waterstone absolutely saved my life and freedom and significantly facilitated my spiritual journey. Amanda, Gina, and the entire staff are dedicated to harm reduction. I've had not a single negative experience with anyone there. If you want the best in outpatient therapy, Waterstone is by far the best bet. I recommend them strongly and without any reservations!

There is no better place in the state of Connecticut to go if you are trying to get clean and put all the pieces of your life back together. The staff are absolutely amazing people and will not let you down, they will not just kick you out and leave you on your own if you make mistakes, and they sat down with me and created a treatment plan and took action SPECIFICALLY for what I needed to achieve the best probability of long term sobriety. They did this for me when noone else would. I had been denied/turned down and sent back out to use by 3 previous places in 2 weeks when I sought out a specific means and plan of aproaching my sobriety. Not here. They saw me immediately, listened and restored faith in me that people do actually care. I have been everywhere in the state to try an get clean and there is no other place like this. If you need help and are serious, please call them, they are the best.

I feel the clinicians here at Waterstone really take time to get to know the person. It's how they make the person feel. That's why I feel this is one of the greatest facilities around.

They are very accessible. Even the person answering the phone has the ability to help you. They are very committed to making sure I have what I need and I think in the field of addiction and recovery time is always of the essence.

What Is Individual Therapy?

Individual therapy also called psychotherapy is a form of counseling. You’ll meet regularly one-on-one with a reliable and relatable therapist to explore your feelings and life experiences, and any personal difficulties you are currently going through.  Individual therapy can help you explore areas of your life where you feel stuck and increase your understanding of the way you interact with the world and with yourself. Waterstone therapists can assist you in developing insight into patterns creating difficulties in your life. Deeper self-knowledge promotes healing and can help you move on from what’s been holding you back.
