About Me

---

You may feel like you’ve tried all that there is to get along better with your spouse, children, parents, friends and co-workers, but it just isn’t working.  Do you feel an overall sense of dread getting out of bed and having to interact with other people?  There are many people who are just fed up and want to finally take control of their own path.  Do you feel like others around you don't understand you?  If any of these issues sound like something you say to yourself - I can help!

My name is Michael R. Hemenway and I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the State of Connecticut. I love helping others navigate through troubling times. I am a graduate of the Fairfield University Marriage and Family Therapy Program and a clinical fellow of the American Association of Marriage and Family Therapy (AAMFT). I specialize in the treatment of anxiety and relational problems with clients of all different age groups and life scenarios. Since 2012, I have been helping individuals, couples, and families find more internal meaning, healthier coping skills, and ways to keep chaos from taking over the important relationships in their life. I am dedicated to the mission of helping you understand your mental and emotional health. 

I am trained as a clinician and a supervisor in Multi-Dimensional Family Therapy (MDFT). I am also trained in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT) and a trauma-informed clinician. I believe that behavior is influenced by the quality of our most important relationships. When our relationships suffer, so does our quality of life. There is always a bigger picture to recognize.

My approach is witty, interactive, persistent, and compassionate. I strive to empower you on your journey through treatment and work closely with you to accomplish your goals.  

You have a story to tell and you deserve to be heard. Your perspective has value.
