About Us

Hi! We’re so glad you’re here.

Re:Mind was created from a deep belief that physical and mental health are both essential to living a full, connected life. We envisioned a space where mental health counseling could coexist seamlessly with rejuvenating spa and wellness services — making care feel accessible, supportive, and human.

Re:Mind is a harmonious haven where individuals are invited to care for themselves both inside and out. Under one roof, we’ve built a caring community and gathered a wide range of resources designed to make self-care feel approachable, empowering, and even a little fun.

We can’t wait to welcome you.

    Terri Lee Waller

    LICENSED CLINICAL SOCIAL WORKER

    My passion for helping others was ignited when I was a peer counselor in high school. I was born in New Haven and have deep connections with its history and culture. I completed both my Bachelors in Psychology and Masters in Social Work at Southern Connecticut State University. 

    I had a long career with the Department of Mental Health and Addiction services. For most of it, I worked in a clinic that was affiliated with various universities in a teaching setting and was committed to ongoing education which included that staff. It was a good fit for me as I enjoy learning and acquiring new skills. 

    My therapy style is client centered and holistic. My extensive experiences allow me to offer clients options and select the ones which might work best for them. My early training was psychodynamically informed and later expanded to include various evidence-based practices. I acquired intensive Dialectical Behavioral Skills training and worked with a team to provide a DBT program. 

    My lived experience as a member of GLBTQI and a Black woman has heightened my sensitivity to negotiating the intersection of multiple identities. I now also have an insider view of retirement and the many challenges of aging both for myself and as a caregiver for my parents. 

    I’m enjoying my “Queenage” era. I have been on a personal journey to explore the therapies that support connections between the mind and body. There is an increasing science-based understanding of benefits of wellness and mindfulness that have been practiced in various cultures around the world for centuries.
