About Justin
Justin Scott is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Connecticut with three years of clinical experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, issues with anger, and depression. Justin also helps people dealing with separation, attachment wounds, and workplace stress.
He uses practical, evidence-based techniques to help people identify what is getting in the way of everyday functioning. Sessions focus on concrete strategies and short-term problem solving as well as understanding patterns that keep problems repeating. Justin describes his style as solution-focused and strengths-based, aiming to build realistic skills that fit each person's goals and values.
In therapy he talks through current situations, patterns from past relationships, and reactions that come up in the moment. That can include working on impulsivity, panic attacks, feelings of shame or guilt, and anger that shows up at home or work. He also supports people wrestling with isolation, life purpose, sexuality, and self-worth.
Justin frames the work as collaborative. He helps clients pick approaches and skills that make sense for their lives. Sessions tend to emphasize doable changes - tools you can try between meetings and check back on.
For someone worried about snapping at loved ones, building resentment, or struggling to calm intense reactions, he offers clear steps to practice and refine. He asks about values and priorities, then matches strategies to what a person actually wants to change.
How sessions work
Approaches for handling anger and relationship strain online
Justin uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on concrete change. One approach is solution-focused work, which zeroes in on current problems and small, practical steps that make a difference quickly. This is useful when someone wants short-term strategies for managing anger or reducing conflict.Another commonly used method involves exploring relational and attachment patterns to see how past relationships shape current reactions. That work helps people notice triggers, understand defensive responses, and try alternative responses in day-to-day situations.
Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss options, try methods in session, and adjust based on how helpful they are. Clients and the therapist decide together what skills and strategies to keep practicing between meetings.
