Justin Ungar, LPC

Justin Ungar is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Connecticut with ten years of clinical experience. He helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, low self-esteem, depression, relationship strain, and anger. He also supports those navigating life changes, ADHD, and intimacy-related concerns.

Justin keeps sessions straightforward. He encourages honest talk and listens without judgment. He aims to help clients notice patterns, try small changes, and build clearer ways of handling strong feelings like frustration and resentment.

In practice he focuses on practical steps rather than labels. Sessions often include talking through immediate problems, identifying unhelpful cycles, and rehearsing different responses to tense situations. He uses methods grounded in evidence to guide those changes, especially when stress, grief, or addiction are involved.

Justin’s work also covers complex background issues such as attachment, abandonment, and blended family dynamics. He addresses physical and emotional strains that come with chronic illness, caregiving, or aging. He can talk with clients about kink and alternative sexual culture without judgment.

He asks clients to set clear goals and checks progress along the way. The emphasis is on workable tools that fit day-to-day life: coping skills for sudden anger, strategies for low motivation, and communication techniques for relationship strain. To start, prospective clients are asked to use the online matching and scheduling flow and complete a short questionnaire before a first session.
