Dr. Dwight Norwood
Middletown
, CT
Clinical Social Work/therapist, PHD
Dr. Dwight Norwood is a highly skilled clinical social worker and therapist with a Ph.D. and licensure as a clinical social worker (LCSW). He specializes in treating PTSD, anxiety, and depression using Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), an evidence-based protocol recognized by SAMHSA, the Federal mental health agency. Scientific studies have demonstrated a significant decline in symptoms following less than four treatments, with many clinicians noting that symptoms stemming from a single traumatic incident—such as an assault or car accident—can often be healed in just one session. Although prolonged trauma, like childhood emotional abuse, may require more time for healing, Dr. Norwood is adept at facilitating quick resolutions. As a certified Master Accelerated Resolution Therapist, he has successfully employed this innovative therapy not only to address post-traumatic stress disorder but also to assist with anxiety, phobias, smoking cessation, and alcohol cessation. Dr. Norwood's commitment to providing impactful treatment is evident in his work, and he invites you to explore his insights featured in a television interview available on his website.
