AEDP Therapists in Maine

MY PRACTICE IS CURRENTLY FULL> . I believe that we all seek to be seen and known. Counseling is a place where we can be supported and reconnect to our strengths, flexibility and resourcefulness. My approach to helping you reconnect to your strengths incorporates mind-body awareness, and relational theory. We'll work in collaboration to help you regain the balance you need to meet your challenges. I offer clients many body based tools from my training in EMDR, AEDP, IFS, meditation, yoga, acupressure, and Attunement work as well as journaling, and spirituality exploration.

As humans we crave connection: to be known and deeply loved. But sometimes we may feel like there are parts of us that aren't acceptable or loveable. We may learn to be sensitive to other people's signals, discerning what we need to do so that they'll love and accept us. Sometimes, we get so good at it that we don't even realize we’re doing it anymore. In the safety of therapy, I invite you to explore your full human experience. We will shine a light on the hidden places that you may not have been allowed to explore. We’ll acknowledge the barriers you have faced along the way while empowering you to move toward your fullest self.

I’m a licensed psychologist with experience working in inpatient psychiatric, outpatient counseling, and outpatient neurorehabilitation settings. I specialize in clinical neuropsychology, conducting neuropsychological evaluations and brain-based psychotherapy for adults. I also provide consulting services in various settings (e.g. organizational, workers’ compensation, forensic) on topics related to my areas of expertise. You’re welcome to contact me with questions regarding your unique concerns. Examples of the types of referral questions for neuropsychological evaluation I routinely address include:

Openings available for Individuals. Welcome. With warmth, clarity and compassion, I offer help to people suffering from "Wounds of the Heart and Mind": Trauma, Depression, Anxiety, neglect and relationship issues, in both groups and individual. With many years experience in both traditional and mind/body approaches, I integrate Relational Attachment work, Buddhist psychology, Childhood Trauma healing groups and energy medicine practices . I believe that along with real pain and suffering, everyone has a potential healthy Self; often obscured or undeveloped. We can build, hold and nurture that together.

I am currently accepting new clients. My approach to therapy is one of healing and transformation by creating a safe and supportive therapeutic relationship. I listen carefully to the challenges you are facing as well as for the strengths you already have. Together we can address the root cause of the issues and work towards healing and growth. As a therapist, my style is warm and engaging. Using an integrative therapeutic approach, drawing from psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, and mindfulness perspectives, I can help you to feel better, develop your strengths, and engage fully in life.

My approach is all about cultivating a strong and trusting therapeutic relationship between my patients and me. I bring to therapy my years of experience working in special education, developmental therapy, restorative justice, and community mental health as well as my work as a financial counselor. My decade of studying and practicing Ayurveda deeply influences my understanding of individual constitutions and my approach to holistic healing. I work with individuals and couples from ages 16 years and up.

I’m a licensed psychologist who works with individuals, couples, and siblings. In the past 19 years, I’ve helped clients with a wide variety of issues, but I specialize in working with those who have experienced trauma in their lives. I have a particular interest in supporting people who endured trauma or neglect as children, which can manifest in adulthood as difficulties with relationships, issues with self-worth, and feelings of responsibility for everyone and everything. I primarily approach counseling through an insight-oriented lens, attempting to help clients uncover core, underlying issues that can lead to true healing.

I specialize in helping men who struggle with isolation, feelings of anxiety and depression, blocks to intimacy, addiction to pornography, lack of male friends, a feeling of being lost or without a deep sense of purpose, or feeling numb and disconnected from life. As men, we are socialized to keep everything to ourselves, which makes it hard for us to admit when we're lonely and hurting and in need of support. Many of us grew up with fathers that were either absent, abusive, or detached from us emotionally, leaving us without a respectable model of masculinity and without much direction in life.

Welcome! I'm Macauley, a passionate and dedicated therapist committed to guiding you on your journey towards emotional well-being and personal growth. I believe in the transformative power of therapy, in tandem with mind-body practices, and am here to support you in navigating life's challenges with empathy and understanding. I firmly believe in the interconnectedness of mind and body. Together, we will explore the integration of traditional therapy with yoga, meditation, and somatic practices, unlocking your potential for healing and growth.

Specializing in depression and anxiety, I intend to help people who experience a range of life stressors, anxieties, traumas, behavioral issues, mental illness, and other emotional disturbances/barriers. We will collaborate to create a plan for addressing these issues in a way that helps you get your life back. Not all processes are the same, however, you will not have to journey through these processes alone. We will process the issues you want to work on at a pace that is comfortable for you and feels safe for you.

I love my work and am in awe of the individuals I work with who courageously address the hurts in their life that prevent them from living more fully. It maybe a crisis in a relationship, ongoing anxiety or depression, a painful trauma, or an inner sense that things are just not right. Together we pay attention to these feelings, enabling them to be talked about, more fully experienced and then understood. This transformative process can restore joy and resilience in life, as well as improve the capacity to care about oneself and be in relationship with others.

You want to live with more ease, confidence and vitality despite the circumstances of your life. You may be facing a major change or perhaps you feel stuck and like you're just going through the motions. Times of transition can feel scary, but they are also invitations for transformation. I believe we all have an inherent capacity for healing. However, sometimes we need help uncovering our inner wholeness. This is where therapy comes in.
