Laurel Wight-Allan, LMSW-LP
Hello! I’m Laurel Wright-Allan, a compassionate clinician with a rich tapestry of experience woven over 23 years in the field of social work. I earned my degree from Wurzweiler School of Social Work at Yeshiva University, and I am currently licensed to practice in both Connecticut and New York
My journey has allowed me the privilege of working with diverse populations, including veterans, the elderly, children, and teens, in both inpatient and outpatient settings. These experiences have deepened my understanding of the unique challenges that individuals face, leading me to specialize in supporting those dealing with depression, anxiety, PTSD, grief, and various women’s issues.
At the heart of my practice is a commitment to creating a warm, non-judgmental, and empathic environment. I believe that every client deserves a safe space to explore their feelings, find healing, and collaboratively navigate life’s challenges.
In addition to my clinical work, I am a certified recreational therapist. I have seen firsthand how integrating leisure with therapy can transform lives by enhancing physical and cognitive function, improving emotional health, and fostering social connections.
My therapeutic approach is grounded in a strength-based perspective, emphasizing client-centered care and integrating spiritual practices when appropriate. Together, we can uncover your strengths and resilience, guiding you on your journey toward well-being. I look forward to the opportunity to support you on your path to healing.
