Are you feeling overwhelmed, lost, or emotionally stuck? I want to hear your story and assist you in your journey towards healing. Currently I am providing therapy to children (4 years and older), adolescents, and adults.
I work with adults 55 and older who are dealing with big life changes — illness, caregiving, grief, retirement, or simply finding themselves in a chapter they didn’t plan for.
A lot of my clients come in because something has shifted. A diagnosis. A loss. The exhaustion of caring for someone else. Or that feeling of, “This isn’t the life I pictured.”
I’ve worked for many years alongside palliative care teams and with people living with serious illness. I understand how overwhelming medical decisions, uncertainty, and anticipatory grief can be.
I also know loss personally. My husband died after a battle with cancer, and rebuilding my own life changed how I sit with others. I don’t just understand this work professionally — I’ve lived parts of it.
Most of the people I see aren’t looking for years of therapy. They want a place to sort through what’s happening, get steadier, and figure out what comes next. We usually work together for a focused stretch — anywhere from a few sessions to a few months.
We meet by telehealth. It’s simple and private, and I’ll handle the logistics.
Are you feeling overwhelmed or disconnected from the people and things you care about? It can be difficult to know where to begin when you're facing changes or persistent challenges. My role is to meet you exactly where you are, whether you are facing grief and loss, relationship conflict, professional stress, or a major life transition. These hardships often bring about cycles of anxiety and depression. Life transitions can be overwhelming. I’m an LCSW, here to walk alongside you as you break through limiting beliefs and move toward a more expansive self. I also have a deep passion for supporting the creative community—understanding the specific emotional highs and lows that come with being an artist, performer, or creative.
Welcome to TrueSelf Counseling & Consulting! I’m so glad you’re here!
Do you sometimes feel “stuck,” like nothing can change? It takes courage to reach out. If you are ready to take that step, I'd love to hear your story.
My name is Alison Mitchell. I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) in NH and ME. In addition, I hold a PhD in Clinical Social Work from the Smith College School for Social Work. My MSW is from the University of Maine School of Social Work.
I work individually with adults experiencing life transitions, parenting stress, depression, anxiety, or traumatic stress, often in combination with substance use disorder. I hope to facilitate your work building yourself and connecting with others in healthy ways. The overall goal is to cultivate your sense of who you are, moving toward who you want to be.
I provide supportive therapy to adults and adolescents who are struggling with complex trauma, depression, anxiety, codependency, OCD and relationship issues. I work to help you evaluate what thought patterns, core beliefs, and behaviors are no longer serving you and to develop tools to self-soothe, affirm yourself, set boundaries, enhance authenticity and communicate effectively.
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.
My name is Emily Scott and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker working in the Denver Area. I have my Bachelors in Social Work from the University of Vermont, and my Masters in Social Work from New York University.
I believe therapy works best when you feel genuinely seen, heard, and understood. My approach is grounded in compassion, curiosity, and collaboration. I work with clients to explore the patterns, experiences, and emotions that shape their lives, while creating a space where they can safely express themselves without judgment. People often come to me when they’re feeling stuck — in relationships, in their sense of self, or in old cycles that no longer serve them. Together, we slow things down, make sense of what’s happening beneath the surface, and build practical tools for meaningful change.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health 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.
