Mariah Faulkner

Therapist

Virtual • New Hampshire


Hello! I am a licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor who works with children, families and adults navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, trauma and identity exploration. My focus on sessions is practical, real and tailored to each person. Sessions often involve exploring patterns, trying out strategies that actually fit your life and reflecting on what's working and what is not. With children, adults and families, I focus on building connection, understanding experiences and creating small changes that feel meaningful day-to-day. My goal is to make therapy feel like a partnership, not a checklist.

Sometimes life doesn't just change, it collapses: divorce, betrayal, a custody conflict, or a future that looks nothing like what you planned. I'm Allyn Latorre, a licensed clinical social worker who has spent over a decade helping adults rebuild after exactly this kind of disruption. My approach is direct, practical, and trauma-informed.

Therapist

A client comes in to see her therapist and is 10 minutes late. She sits down and apologizes for her tardiness, to which the therapist replies that no apologies are necessary as clients are only late for their first session.

The vignette illustrates something that I see in clients repeatedly who come into my office. Many should have come in at least a year or two ago but for some reason think that the problems they experience are still manageable.

While I admire the will of many of those who still manage life like the proverbial Dutch Boy and the dike, I believe that asking for help is a strength of its own. In therapy, I come from the perspective of someone that had to receive help at various times in my life. I've also had a meandering career path, meaning that I've worked in several fields and industries prior to becoming a therapist and have been able to do ground-level empathizing with people who work in blue and white-collar professions.
