Family Systems Therapists in Yarmouth, ME

Now accepting new clients. Whether you are feeling anxious, depressed, facing a crisis, managing past trauma or looking for a sense of meaning and fulfillment, positive change is possible. I use an experiential approach believing that when clients truly understand themselves, they are better able to leverage their own inner wisdom and inherent strength to manage their lives the way they want to. The work we do together leads to increased clarity, a better sense of self and the ability to manage current and future challenges from a place of strength and compassion rather than from fear and frustration.

I have worked as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for over thirty years providing clinical counseling services to individuals, couples, families and groups. Much of my clinical work has been focused on eating disorders and assisting clients in exploring their relationship with food. I am a supporter of the Health at Every Size model and believe that self-compassion is at the foundation of all healing. I am certified as a Am I Hungry?

My name is Rachel Gitelson and I specialize in the treatment of individuals, families, and providing parenting support. I use a person-centered, mindfulness based approach to my work, integrating cognitive behavioral therapy and psychodynamic theories to treat the individual within the dynamics of their world. I support couples in the challenges of parenting in today’s world, and come from a strength-based perspective in which I believe we are all doing the best we can given the resources that we have. Additionally, I offer supervision to licensed therapists.

I believe that the healing that occurs in therapy forms and grows from the relationship between the client and therapist. My work is rooted in connection, compassion and empathy. I believe that each of us is the expert on ourselves and our path, and the therapist’s role is that of a supportive guide through our own individual journeys.

After working in preventative mental health care as a mindfulness educator, I gravitated towards social work because of its emphasis on exploring ourselves in the context of the world around us. My orientation as a mental health counselor is rooted in curiosity about what it means to be human and to heal. It is also grounded in the belief that any work we do to understand ourselves more deeply can have a profound reparative impact that goes beyond the individual into the community at large. Counseling is an opportunity to connect with someone who can hold space to observe and learn from your personal experience.

New Openings 4/1/24. I work with children and parents in need of support in dealing with a variety of child or family related challenges. Parents truly are the experts of their children and thus their role in the therapeutic process is vital.

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.
