Gillian Verrastro
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Licensed Alcohol & Drug Counselor treating individuals experiencing mental health and substance use problems in Connecticut since 2003. I am also certified to provide telemental health services.
My therapeutic approach is cognitive behavioral which is based on the understanding of one’s thought process or behaviors in the present and identifying how dysfunctional patterns in these areas may be contributing to a larger life problem. By gaining awareness of these thought patterns, individuals can work to change them.
I work with a range of clients including those individuals who are contemplating their issues with substance use and emotional health. Issues that I treat are substance use disorders as well as anxiety & depression, bipolar disorders, relationship issues, and life transitions.
