~Where life's lessons make you stronger~
​
Welcome to my website!
​
You have taken the first step towards making
positive changes in your life and you should feel
very proud of yourself !
Many individuals who seek mental health
counseling, have been struggling for a long time, prior
to taking the first step.
Fear, feelings of hopelessness and shame at needing help, are some of the
reasons people don't seek help. Seeking help from a mental health professional is not a sign of weakness. On the contrary it's a sign of strength; it's a courageous and positive move towards improving the quality of your life.
My name is Marie Cortez, a bilingual (English/Spanish), therapist-Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the Greater Hartford Area.
The name of my practice is in honor of my late mother Gladys, whom was an inspiration to me, throughout my life.
