Debra Koenig

Marriage & Family Therapist, LMFT

Debra Koenig is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in Westport, CT with a tele-health practice in New York. Clients often seek psychotherapy because something feels “off” in their lives or there are struggles which develop as a result of developmental and life transitions in their families. Unexplored behavioral and emotional responses can keep us feeling “stuck” and prevent us from fulfilling relationships and careers. Each client is unique and there is no such thing as “one size, fits all” therapy. Successful therapy is a collaboration between the client and therapist. I provide both long-term treatment as well as shorter term support for clients facing a major setback/transition.

Jill Kaiser

Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW

I am a psychotherapist in practice for 20+ years who sees therapy as a place to find support, insight and guidance to make meaningful life changes. My style is warm, engaging, interactive and collaborative --I strive to offer a non-judgmental place to explore feelings and thoughts as well as to identify unhelpful patterns and behaviors. I believe that everyone takes this process at their own pace and moving forward can often happen in small steps. I combine a traditional psychodynamic approach with cognitive-behavioral and mindfulness techniques tailored to the needs of each client.

I enjoy working with women’s issues, particularly those experiencing depression, anxiety, grief/loss, life transitions, workplace stress, balancing work/family, relationship and parenting issues.

Together we can set attainable goals, explore new ways to cope, and work towards feeling more resilient.
