Clients should know that I bring warmth, curiosity, and a deep respect for their lived experiences into the therapy room. I approach therapy as a collaborative process, where your voice and goals guide our work. I integrate Narrative Therapy and use humor thoughtfully to create connection, ease, and insight. I'm not here to “fix” you—I’m here to walk alongside you as you explore, reframe, and grow. I believe change happens when people feel seen, heard, and safe enough to be their full selves.

Therapist

Hi, I’m Delilah, and I’m glad you’re here.

Starting therapy can feel vulnerable, overwhelming, or even a little awkward—and thats okay. I believe therapy works best when it feels human, collaborative, and grounded in real life. My goal is to create a space where you feel understood, supported, and empowered to make meaningful change at your own pace.

I have experience working with individuals and families through complex challenges, including homelessness, substance use, severe and chronic mental health conditions, medical conditions, life transitions, and navigating real-world problems. This work has shaped my approach to be practical, compassionate, and focused on meeting people where they are.

Additionally, I have completed extensive continuing education and specialized training to support diverse client needs. I am a certified RUBI-trained parent coach, helping caregivers build effective, connected strategies at home for children experiencing neurodivergence and behaviorally defiant behaviors through evidence-based parent support and skill development.

Also, I am an NATC-certified clinician specializing in the recovery and treatment of narcissistic abuse, supporting clients in rebuilding identity, strengthening boundaries, restoring self-trust, and creating healthier relationships.

Whether you are navigating healing, growth, parenting challenges, recovery, or simply looking to reconnect with yourself, therapy can be a place to begin.

Renee Armstrong-Hay

Renee Armstrong-Hay

Therapist

Virtual • Maine


Hi, I’m a licensed clinical social worker with over 14 years of experience supporting individuals and families through life’s challenges. Since beginning my work in 2009, I’ve provided therapy across community-based, office, and virtual settings, giving me a well-rounded understanding of how to meet clients where they are—both practically and emotionally.

I specialize in working with anxiety, OCD, panic disorder, and trauma-related concerns. I understand how overwhelming these experiences can feel, and I’m passionate about helping clients make sense of what’s happening beneath the surface while building practical, sustainable tools for change.

My approach is both compassionate and structured. I draw from evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), helping clients identify patterns, develop coping strategies, and move toward greater emotional regulation and confidence in their daily lives.

I believe therapy works best when it feels safe, collaborative, and real. Whether you're navigating persistent anxiety, intrusive thoughts, past trauma, or current life stressors, my goal is to support you in feeling more grounded, understood, and equipped to move forward.

Therapist

Virtual • Maine


Hello! I am accepting new clients at this time.

My name is Angelica, and I am a clinical-level social worker. I have been working in the field of social services for the past 12 years.

After completing my MSW, I started as a school-based social worker, and I have been doing this ever since. I love being able to help people and hear their stories. Everyone has a story to tell, and someone should be there to support and listen.

I think of myself as a responsive, strengths-based, and empathetic counselor. I think everyone deserves grace, and often everyone is going through something that no one knows about. I have had the privilege to work with a wide variety of people, including youth, adults, elderly, adolescents, people with disabilities, and many other people in between. From crisis intervention services, to individual, to group-based therapy, and social skills groups. I have dabbled in a bit of everything in the field so far. I like getting to know the person I am working with, and then coming up with a plan together about what can help!
