Getting to know Connie Vaillancourt
As a Marriage and Family Therapist with over 15 years of experience and a Master�s in Clinical Counseling from Antioch University, I am well-versed in multiple evidence-based treatment approaches. I have worked with individuals, couples, and groups from diverse ethnic, religious, and socio-economic backgrounds in various settings, including residential programs, schools, private practice, non-profit organizations, and intensive outpatient hospital programs.
My approach
I believe the therapeutic relationship is the foundation for positive change. By providing a safe, compassion-focused environment, I help clients make sense of their struggles and find meaning in them. This process allows clients to overcome obstacles currently preventing them from reaching their true potential.
My focus
I work with individuals dealing with issues such as aging, anxiety, chronic illness, codependency, coping skills, depression, grief, job stress, life transitions, parenting, relationship issues, self-esteem, stress, trauma and PTSD, women�s issues, and divorce.
My communication style
I communicate with openness, empathy, and clarity. My approach is collaborative�I listen closely to understand your perspective and tailor our discussions to your needs. I aim to create an atmosphere of trust where you feel safe to share. Through supportive and direct dialogue, we�ll work together to help you gain insight and find meaningful solutions.
My goals for you
My ultimate aim is to assist you in cultivating a gentler relationship with yourself by broadening your perspective and guiding you toward greater authenticity.
My first session with you
I appreciate your patience in awaiting our first therapy session. While responding to questions may not be your immediate focus, I view the intake session as crucial for establishing rapport, understanding your goals for change, exploring the context of your concerns, and determining if we are a good fit for collaboration moving forward.

I needed help, and she was available. That is what brought me to her. What kept me with her is her compassion, candor, helpfulness, willing to work WITH me, her tools she taught me, her demeanor, her smile. Just seeing her face made me relax and know that everything was going to be OK. She taught me tools I use daily, and that I show other people who now use them. She gave me courage, insight, confidence. She gave me ME back. I can never thank her enough for what she has done for me.

Connie is amazing! I found her when I was struggling with burnout, imposter syndrome, and related issues. She helped me tremendously. Connie is an insightful listener. She is thoughtful, connecting to topics discussed previously, and provides helpful, honest feedback and practical suggestions. Our sessions were deep, yet often light-hearted. Thanks to working with Connie, I am in a much better place, respond more calmly to stressful situations, and move through life with more ease.
