Therapy and Counseling in 06615: Stratford, CT.

Hi...my name is Matt Bastiaanse and I am a licensed Marriage and Family therapist. I specialize in working with individuals who are looking for help to get "unstuck," in both their personal, and professional lives.

South Bay Counseling is a place of acceptance, comfort and relaxation. In my work with you, I will help you to feel listened to and safe to talk about anything that's bothering you. I can help you with depression, anxiety, life's stressors, relationship issues, etc.

Providing couples counseling to help couples regain their connection. A first and necessary step leading to increasing trust and intimacy. Hal has mentored couples counselors for thirty years. He has himself been a couples counselor since 1975.

My goal is to help you find the strength to review life's troubling issues and form new perceptions. My approach is called "Integrative Family Therapy" which focuses on two aspects: how you function as an individual and how you relate to others helping you to heal.

As a couples and individual therapist, I believe therapy should be a compassionate and collaborative process that gives you a voice. Together, I help you step over the hurdles between you and your most fulfilled and authentic life.
