Life can look completely fine on the outside while feeling exhausting on the inside. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, BFRBs, ADHD, OCD, neurodivergence, self-worth, loneliness, relationship patterns, dating, or simply the feeling that something isn't quite right.
You don't have to be in crisis to benefit from therapy. Whether something has been weighing on you for years, you're feeling stuck, or you've just started noticing life feels harder than it used to, you deserve support. There doesn't have to be a "good enough" reason to reach out—if it's important to you, it's important.
Whether you're brand new to therapy or you've tried it before and walked away feeling unseen or misunderstood, you're welcome here. You don't need to have the right words or know exactly where to start—just showing up is enough.
I hold a PhD in Counselor Education and am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Supervisor (LCMHCS) in North Carolina, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in South Carolina, and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Maine. I am also a Certified Mental Performance Consultant (CMPC) through the Association for Applied Sport Psychology. My counseling style is grounded in a nonjudgmental, cognitive-behavioral approach. I believe in taking the time to truly understand each client’s perspective and collaborating to find practical, meaningful solutions that fit their life. My goal is to help clients build insight, develop effective tools that lead happier, more fulfilling lives.
Hello, I'm Sarah. With 30 years of professional experience in the mental health field, I've had the privilege of working in hospitals, clinics, and private practice settings. My journey has equipped me with a diverse skill set and a deep understanding of the complexities of mental health. I hold a Master's degree and am a Licensed Independent Social Worker, dedicated to supporting individuals through their unique challenges.

Welcome! I'm a licensed therapist who has worked with children, adults, and families, including in correctional settings. I believe the systems around us shape how we feel inside, and I hold that context in every session. My approach is grounded in trauma informed care and CBT, but what matters most is you: your goals, your pace, your story. If you're looking for a warm, open-minded space to start, I hope you'll reach out.
So far in my career, I've worked in a residential setting with female survivors of trafficking and exploitation, community mental health, private practice, support lines, and in insurance. Each setting brings different needs, but all have shown me how resilient people are and how anyone can change their life when they're ready.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Maine
Searching for therapists in Maine starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want support with. Across the state, therapy needs and available therapists can vary between larger communities and rural areas. You may be looking for care related to anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, or major life changes. As you compare Maine therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy approaches, and experience with concerns like yours. Bios can also show whether a therapist uses approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, or trauma-informed care.
Location and format can also shape your search for a Maine therapist. If you live near Portland, Augusta, or Bangor, you may find more in-person options nearby. In smaller towns or rural areas, virtual therapy can expand the number of therapists available to you. You can narrow your search by appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, free phone consultations, and session format. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand how a therapist describes their style, what sessions may look like, and whether their schedule fits yours.
The cost of therapy in Maine varies, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for Maine therapists who take insurance, review estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, and schedule directly when you are ready. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and coverage depends on your location and specific plan. You can browse therapists, review bios, check your insurance, and book care that matches your needs.
