Wendy Haskell, LCSW, has dedicated the past 25 years to serving the Westport community as a psychotherapist. She specializes in seeing adults, couples, children, adolescents, and families, with a deep understanding of family dynamics informing her practice. Her welcoming and nonjudgmental attitude creates a safe space for her clients. Adolescents in Wendy's care often present with social or home challenges, sometimes fixating on online activities, experiencing eating disorders, or engaging in other self-injurious behaviors. Her therapeutic work frequently centers on identity exploration, relationship choices, career direction, and navigating complex issues regarding gender and sexual orientation, as well as the challenges surrounding divorce or blended families. Many of the children she assists grapple with anxiety; Wendy employs play therapy, skill-building techniques, personalized parent guidance, and family work to support their development. Adults seeking individual therapy typically present with varying levels of anxiety and depression, navigating emotional stressors such as relationship issues, job difficulties, unemployment, chronic illness, and grief. She also works with couples, ranging from new partners to those navigating long-term marriages or the aftermath of divorce. The families she sees confront an array of challenges, often exacerbated by the fallout of divorce. In all her therapeutic engagements, Wendy focuses on enhancing personal reflection, strengthening coping strategies, and fostering effective communication skills.
