I’m a LCSW with a background in behavioral health and trauma care, including supporting service members and veterans.

I provide a warm, supportive space to help you feel understood and create meaningful change.
My name is Shannon Murray and I have been in the field for 11 years. I am experienced working with individuals of all ages in the outpatient setting. I have specifically specialized in working with teens and young adults with eating disorders. I have generalized education from my Masters program in social work from the University of Maine guiding my work for individuals who also struggle with anxiety, depression, and interpersonal conflict.
Feeling lost, stuck, or disconnected? I support clients who are working through questions self-worth, shame and guilt, boundaries, and relationships throughout the states of Kentucky and Maine. My focus areas include relational discord, anxiety, depression, anger management and impulse concerns, and stress management. I currently have availability on Mondays and Thursdays.
I am an RN with over 18 years of experience in nursing, specializing in mental health care. I am also a PMHNP-BC, and I obtained my first degree from Grand Canyon University and my Masters from Walden University. I manage clients across the lifespan and use a holistic and patient-centered approach.
Navigating Trauma & Life Transitions: Local Heart, Global Perspective
Whether you're facing a life-altering event or everyday struggles, I offer a secure safe harbor to move from survival toward stability and purpose.
My work is grounded in cultural humility, drawing on both local roots and a global lens to meet you wherever life has brought you from.
I am a Columbia-trained therapist and Certified EMDR clinician, specializing in desensitizing and reprocessing of trauma imprints that keep us stuck in cycles of hypervigilance or repetitive behaviors. My expertise is also backed by certification in Crisis Management from ICISF from high stakes situations to daily life's stressors.
- Couples Welcome - In-Person or Online - Same daily fight? Navigating an affair? Deciding about separation? We explore building trust, safety and a sense of partnership. We look at painful patterns, but also see you both as individuals with desires in the relationship and in your lives. We can explore how patterns influence your lives together today and expand the parts that are serving you and evolve the ones that aren’t. The results may include building new boundaries, confronting shame and evolving relationship-narratives. I offer a safe, trusting space so that you both can feel settled and explore your relationship vulnerably.
I'm Dr. Cheri Carter, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a PhD in Family Studies.

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.
