Aliza Castro is a dually licensed clinician in Connecticut with 29 years of experience delivering integrated behavioral health treatment for people navigating substance use and co-occurring mental health conditions.
She also acknowledges the identity-related challenges that can emerge from adoption and offers a safe space to explore those experiences. Her clinical work is rooted in evidence-based, person-centered care that helps clients feel heard and supported while they set meaningful goals and develop practical coping skills.
Her style is nonjudgmental, compassionate, supportive, and focused on achieving clear objectives.

Aliza is licensed in Connecticut as both a clinical social worker and an alcohol and drug counselor.
Research and clinical experience show that for many common concerns - including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and major life transitions - online therapy can be as effective as traditional in-person care. It offers a practical option for addressing everyday mental health needs without sacrificing therapeutic quality.
One of the primary benefits is flexibility - clients can choose the mode of connection that fits their life, whether through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. That adaptability makes it easier to maintain consistency in care and to fit sessions into busy schedules.
Licensed professionals provide online therapy, and clients have the option to change therapists at any time if they want a different therapeutic match. For many people, that combination of effectiveness and convenience makes online therapy a viable and accessible choice.
