Deidre Ekholdt, LCSW

Lic. Clinical Social Worker

My name is Deirdre Ekholdt and I have worked as a psychotherapist for 20 years. I have lived in Hong Kong, Florida, and now in Connecticut.


I enjoy assisting my clients with reducing roadblocks due to anxiety, thought rumination, addiction, and codependency through somatic approaches and behavioral skill-building. I am an empathetic listener, engaging with a strength perspective. I enjoy supporting clients in being their best version of themselves as well as helping them self-advocate for healthier relationships. I utilize DBT, CBT, EFT, and mindfulness skill training as therapy interventions.


Deirdre can be reached at Dekholdt@positivedirections.org or at 203.227.7644 x 852.
