Family therapy and counseling in Maine

I am an individual and family therapist. I have a passion for helping young adults and parents feel empowered and in control of their lives. I specialize in helping families better understand each other, cope with life challenges, manage symptoms related to grief, depression, anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, Autism and ODD. I help teens, young adults and parents understand how their childhood has impacted how they engage with the world today; working to create increased self-esteem, healthy boundaries, and amplified joy. My goal is to help you to overcome obstacles in life that seem insurmountable.

If you are an adolescent, young adult, or parent navigating something hard, whether that is relationships, confidence, a shifting sense of identity, or just a feeling that you are not quite reaching your potential, you do not have to sort it out alone. I am a psychologist who brings warmth, creativity, and a little humor to this work. My goal is to help you build on what is already strong in you while finding new tools for the challenges ahead. I would love to connect and see if we might be a good fit.

We believe that healing, wholeness, and true peace are possible at every stage of life. Life can bring seasons of transition, uncertainty, loss, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and questions about who we are and where we are going. You do not have to navigate those seasons alone.

As a nonprofit organization, our mission is to bring hope, joy, and healing to our neighbors. Through counseling, we come alongside individuals and families with compassion, curiosity, and respect for each person's unique story. We create a space to slow down, make sense of what you're experiencing, understand how the past and present shape your life, and discover new ways of moving forward.

My clinical degree is a Master of Science in Social Administration (MSSA, MSW equivalent) from Case Western Reserve in Cleveland, Ohio (2016). I completed my Master of Education in Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA) from University of Cincinnati (2016), and have experience as a provider of ABA services. I have a Doctorate in Behavioral Health from Arizona State University(2020).

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.
