If you're feeling stretched thin between your work, your relationship, or both, and you're exhausted from carrying it alone, you're not imagining how heavy it's become. Maybe you and your partner keep having the same fight without knowing why. Maybe you're successful everywhere except in the parts of your life that matter most. Either way, you're likely here because you're ready for something to actually change, not just to talk about it. I'm Jon Abelack, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Connecticut, and I work with couples and individuals dealing with relationship strain, career stress, and burnout. Before becoming a therapist, I spent over 20 years in high-stakes careers, so I understand firsthand what it's like to perform under pressure while your personal life quietly falls apart in the background. I bring that same direct, no-nonsense approach into the room. My work draws on Gestalt therapy and Relational Life Therapy, which means we don't just talk about your problems in the abstract. We pay close attention to what's actually happening between us right now, because that usually tells us more than any story about the past. I'll help you communicate more honestly, break the patterns that keep tripping you up, and set the boundaries you've been avoiding, whether that's with a partner, at work, or with yourself. This isn't therapy that drifts for years without direction. It's active, it's honest, and it's built to get you real, lasting movement toward a relationship, or a life, that actually works. If you're ready to feel grounded again, more connected, and back in control, I'd welcome the chance to talk about how we might work together.

Psychotherapy Services For Individual Counseling, Family Counseling, Marriage Counseling, and Couples Counseling Here at Counseling Services Direct, the main goal of the practice is to offer a supportive and safe environment for individuals, families, and couples to become fulfilled in their relationships and life. The setting of the practice will help you build resources to fully realize your potential for acceptance, happiness, well-being, and growth. As a licensed and certified family therapist and a licensed marriage therapist the practice exists to inspire active participation and support the client with developing insight into the areas that are causing troubles, and empowering the behavioral transformations that are wanted. The therapy is place to open yourself to the possibilities of making constructive changes and working through the areas that are causing emotional distress and other problems.

As a mental health professional in the age of the new millenium, I would describe my approach to helping people as integrative and holistic. As a therapist, I think it is crucial to create a loving, safe environment for each individual. Then specific to each individual, I create a plan integrating cognitive behavioral techniques, psychotherapy, visualization, relaxation, EMDR, hypnosis and reiki. Together with the client, we create a new positive self-image that can completely transform an individual's life. As Nelson Mandela said," Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure".

Therapy can help when life becomes overwhelming, when you feel alone in your struggles, or when you’re experiencing major life changes. You may find it difficult to talk about your problems with family members or friends, as they may not understand your feelings. My role as a therapist is to empower those facing various issues in their lives and to help you cope with difficult situations in a more adaptive way. Being listened to can help you feel understood and remind you that other people care about you and what you have to say. I provide a supportive, caring, nonjudgmental, safe, and culturally appropriate atmosphere.

I cannot work with Medicaid nor with most Medicare and ACA insurance plans. *** We have open conversations where all your thoughts and experiences are welcome, and we can focus on areas that show laden emotionality and potential for your growth and increased self-awareness and acceptance. It is like opening a good door in your mind that may never have been opened before. As trust develops, you will be able to speak more and more freely and connect on the issues that have the most impact for you. I also engage in order to question ideas that seem to be misunderstandings or self-limiting, in order to help you find more clarity and positive energy. Clients report feeling seen and heard, and feeling relief of anxiety, depression, and phobias as their true needs and experiences are being heard, clarified, and responded to. Clients of all ethnicities, races, ages, and sexual orientations are welcome and treated with respect and dignity.

I believe therapy should be a supportive, collaborative, and emotionally safe space where you feel genuinely heard, understood, and supported without judgment. Many of the women I work with are carrying significant pressure at work, in relationships, and in their personal lives while continuing to function through anxiety, burnout, emotional overwhelm, perfectionism, and chronic stress. My approach is compassionate, practical, and grounded in helping you better understand yourself while developing healthier and more sustainable ways of coping with life’s challenges. Together, we explore the patterns contributing to stress, overthinking, self-doubt, emotional exhaustion, and difficulty slowing down while also identifying your strengths, values, and emotional needs. In therapy, my goal is to create a space where you can slow down, reflect, process what you have been carrying, and reconnect with yourself outside of constant responsibility and pressure. We work together to build healthier coping strategies, strengthen boundaries, improve emotional balance, and create a more sustainable relationship with work, relationships, and daily life. Therapy is not about “fixing” you. It is about helping you feel more grounded, emotionally supported, self-aware, and connected to yourself so you can move through life with greater clarity, confidence, and emotional well-being.

I am a compassionate, experienced psychologist, in practice for over 35 years. I have been fortunate to have a vocation that is my avocation; and, relatedly, I expend substantial effort in ever-broadening my skills so that I can be as effective as possible in helping my clients reach their goals. In addition to clients that I help in my practice as a therapist, I enjoy helping others through the self-help books that I write for adults, and for children and their parents.

Amongst our clinical experience, training, and caring approach we create a space where our client's can be genuine without the fear of judgement. We feel each individual is unique and therefore tailor a treatment plan that is individualized to fit each client's needs. We respect our client's right to self-determination while focusing on their goals. As a clinician I enjoy utilizing CBT techniques, insight oriented therapy, and a strengths based perspective. "The best project you will ever work on is you." Therapy is an investment in yourself as well as those in your life. We are eager to partner with you, your loved ones, and families in your journey towards a satisfying and fulfilling life.

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us....And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others." - Marianne Williamson. Fear of failure, fear of the past, and fear of the unknown can hold us back from becoming our best selves. Change is hard, and loss is even harder. Our thoughts and feelings can sometimes be so overwhelming that it seems hard to move forward in life. As a helping hand, I assist adults and couples who feel burdened by the challenges of life to discover and build upon their inner strength. I specialize in goal-oriented motivational enhancement therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy to assist those struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, and other conflicting emotions. Once you are ready to make the first step, please feel free to call or email to set up an appointment. I look forward to accompanying you on your journey of self-exploration and growth towards your self-identified goals.
