Getting to know Dr. Randi Torstenson

Thank you for choosing to review my practice profile. I am a seasoned clinical psychologist with over 20 years of experience treating a variety of mental health concerns. I hold a PsyD in Clinical Psychology from The Chicago School and a Certificate in Psychodynamic Psychotherapy from The Psychoanalytic Association of New York. I specialize in treating anxiety, trauma, relationship concerns/marital distress, and depression. I have extensive training to address the specific concerns of women, LGBTQIA+ individuals and couples, creative and artistic individuals, and clients from a multitude of different racial, ethnic, and spiritual backgrounds. I am licensed to practice psychotherapy in person and via teletherapy in CT and NY, and teletherapy for all other PSYPACT participating states. Research tells us the best predictor of therapeutic success is the quality of the therapeutic relationship and the connection the client feels to the therapist. It is for this reason that clients and I establish safety, trust, and collaboration from the moment we begin working together. It is an absolute honor to witness the growth and development of clients and to help empower them to become the healthiest version of themselves.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I am an active therapist who will deeply listen to you and offer validation, support, and coping strategies. Working collaboratively with clients to build trust, safety, and understanding are essential parts of the work we do together.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I offer a free phone consultation for prospective clients to learn whether my practice is a good fit for their presenting concerns. If we agree to work together, I offer an hour-long initital intake session where we explore your concerns in greater detail and discuss how we might work collaboratively together.
