A wonderful experience
I have been with CT psych and wellness for 5+ years. In a very sensitive person and I’ve had nothing but a wonderful experience with Steve Morley. He is so dedicated and passionate about what he does. He does not waste your time with leaving you on meds that aren’t make you feeling great. Steve has fully changed my life and supported me throughout my entire journey.
Monica is also so amazing and approachable which is wonderful considering that the people who are seeking services are in a vulnerable state of mind. Thank you Steve and Monica for being approachable, working hard and never giving up on me.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between psychiatry and therapy?
Psychiatry focuses on brain health and medicine. Therapy focuses on talk and coping skills. Some people need both forms of care. Using both can help improve mood and daily life over time.
When should I see a psychiatrist instead of a primary care doctor?
What conditions are treated at Connecticut Psychiatric and Wellness Center?
What is a comprehensive mental health evaluation?
During a visit, a provider asks about mood, sleep, stress, daily life, and concerns such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, or other mental health symptoms. First, symptoms are reviewed. Next, testing may be done if needed. This helps build a plan that fits each person.
How do I know if I need advanced treatments like TMS, ketamine, or EMDR therapy?
TMS therapy, EMDR therapy, or ketamine may be recommended when traditional treatments have not provided enough relief. Some people explore these options after medications, talk therapy, or other approaches have not been effective. A qualified provider will review your symptoms, medical history, and treatment goals before recommending the safest and most appropriate next step.
Is psychiatric care confidential?
