Bluebird Counseling LLC is proud to announce the expansion of its therapeutic services in Middlebury, Connecticut, with a dedicated focus on adolescents and young adults.
This developmental stage is marked by rapid emotional, cognitive, and social growth, often accompanied by challenges related to identity, relationships, academic pressure, and mental health. Bluebird’s expanded offerings are designed to meet these unique needs with compassion, clinical expertise, and flexible access to care.
Our team of clinicians brings a wealth of experience and specialized training to support young people navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, family dynamics, substance use, and life transitions:
Samantha Nilsson, LCSW – Known for her grounded, relational approach, Samantha works with teens and young adults to build emotional resilience and self-awareness through evidence-based modalities.

Christina Cook, LCSW – Christina specializes in trauma-informed care and supports adolescents in developing coping strategies, emotional regulation, and a sense of empowerment. She also has extensive experience working with LGBTQIA+ youth and individuals exploring gender identity, offering affirming, identity-conscious care that fosters self-expression, confidence, and belonging.
Amber Aboobaker, LMSW – Amber offers a culturally responsive lens and works collaboratively with clients to address anxiety, self-esteem, family systems, and substance misuse. She has particular expertise in supporting individuals who are struggling with addiction, recovery, and co-occurring mental health concerns, using a strengths-based and harm-reduction approach.
