Edward Paquette regards the decision to begin therapy as a courageous step and works to ensure each person feels valued, safe, and respected throughout the process. He emphasizes a collaborative partnership that supports personal growth and practical change.
Licensed in Connecticut as a professional counselor (CT LPC 000570), he brings 27 years of clinical experience addressing depression, anxiety, life transitions, and difficult relationships. Over his career he has worked with people managing stress, grief, career concerns, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue.
He is trained in cognitive-behavioral therapy as well as existential therapy, the latter helping clients explore how they fit into the world and how their choices influence their present circumstances. As an older gay male therapist, he offers an experienced and affirming presence for those seeking an attentive practitioner.
Through thoughtful, goal-oriented work, his hope is that clients find a greater sense of peace, ease, and fulfillment in their everyday lives.
For many common difficulties such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes, online therapy can be just as effective as in-person care. It is a viable option for addressing everyday mental health concerns and transitions.
One major benefit is flexibility - people can connect with a therapist in the format that best fits their schedule and comfort, whether by video call, phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging. This range of options often makes it easier to maintain consistency in treatment.
Therapy delivered online is provided by licensed professionals, and individuals may change therapists at any time if they prefer a different fit. For many, the convenience and accessibility of online sessions make them a practical way to pursue ongoing support.
