Melissa Gilmore

First and foremost, my goal is to help you achieve your goals. I treat each person as the individual that they are, with the understanding that we are not fully responsible for all of the difficulties in our lives, but that we can collaborate to help make the challenges you face more manageable. My experience has been primarily with individuals and families, those struggling with anxiety, depression, substance abuse, relationship issues and adjustment. I welcome anyone who is seeking an objective individual, and a safe place to explore their situation and feelings.
Ideally, we will work together to empower you to regain control of your life and feel better equipped to achieve the happiness you deserve. My offices in Branford and Wallingford are easily accessible off the highway and by bus.
I am a proponent of every client finding the right match in a counselor; while I am confident that we will work well together, if not, I will gladly help you find someone who can. My office is a private, comfortable setting that offers weekday evening & weekend appointments. I also welcome pets to attend sessions.
