We provide counseling, clinical psychotherapy, mental health care, and education on well-being and behavior.
Who we are: a group of independently licensed clinical therapists who choose to work together to serve our community. Each therapist has their own areas of expertise. Each therapist is responsible for their own booking and is not supervised or managed by anyone else.
We are not: a big chain of locations full of not-yet-licensed interns trying to gain supervision and experience hours (also known as a claim factory). No slick website here with animation and fake pictures of people who don’t actually work here and have never been to therapy with us.
We offer free consultations for everyone. You can find more info about therapy on our FAQ, Therapist, and Info pages.

Sirona Counseling LLC is a locally owned and operated private practice! We are not a franchise or corporate-owned brand. Sirona Counseling is owned and managed by a clinical therapist. We are a private practice group in Farmington, serving the surrounding area and all of Connecticut via telehealth.
Here at Sirona, every therapist is a fully licensed clinician. That means we aren’t a “learning” group full of untested associate level therapists. If you’re checking out other practices, you may find most of their staff are LMSW, LMFT-A, or LPC-A. These are associate-level licenses given to therapists who have not completed their training and clinical testing.
We are located on the West Hartford/Farmington line off Farmington Avenue near UConn Hospital at The Exchange. We’ll give you directions.
Insurance:
We all are in network with Optum, United Healthcare, Oxford, UMR, Connecticare, Aetna.
Some of us are in network with Husky (medicaid only) and with Anthem. Check the Therapists page to see who is in network.

If you want to see a therapist who is not in network with your insurance, you can pay out of pocket (we can negotiate a rate) and receive a superbill, which is a sort of receipt for clinical services. You send these to your insurance in batches about once a month. If you have out of network benefits through your plan, you should get some money back.
