Spirituality Therapists in Cape Elizabeth, ME

My conceptual skills and strengths from clinical practice are well-suited for highly motivated individuals; open to learning how to advance and stabilize their emotional health, based on sound principles for psychological and philosophic conflict-resolution. My approach reflects the understanding that growth requires critical self-reflection and ample time to actualize meaningful change. My experiences in academic studies, clinical services, and social justice affords me a broad range of insights; relevant to developing timely orientations for supporting composed ways, of handling internal and external, past and present conflicts.

I offer therapies to help a client discover and heal the emotional pain that keeps them from thriving. I specialize in working with both event and attachment trauma. I have 30+ years working in the field of mental health and have worked with many different life and mental health problems. I believe there is a fundamental goodness in each person and that the harshness of life sometimes thrusts us into survival strategies. Healing offers a working through these strategies, teach us life lessons and reorient into thriving strategies by making peace within.

Going through life feeling misunderstood, disconnected from others, uncomfortable in your skin, and that the world isn’t to be trusted can be a lonely and frightening endeavor. Using drugs and or alcohol may seem to be the only real relief. Everyone has two sides to them, one believing nothing will ever change and another hoping for a better way. I provide a safe and supportive environment for you to explore the negative self-talk and inner critic that prevents you from being your authentic self, leading you to use substances to cope.

People often describe me as down to earth and easy to talk to which helps clients open up and work through issues more deeply. Using evidence-based approaches, I draw on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), mindfulness and humanistic psychology to help clients move forward in meaningful ways. From my experience, I've realized that people can get stuck in negative patterns due to childhood experiences and mindset. In a holistic way, I tailor therapy for the inner work needed to shift beliefs and mindset to become aligned with your goals while considering various facets that contribute.

C'mon guys, let's be real, can we? I usually joke with the men that come to see me that they are either court-ordered or wife-ordered for therapy. I recognize that humor can be a powerful icebreaker easing into the process of addressing issues. Whether it be improved communication skills, increased self-awareness, developing empathy for self and others, mood management, or just plain having an empathic ear to validate your struggles. I can offer you assistance in achieving those goals and more if you would like.

If you have experienced trauma in relationships or from sudden losses or other overwhelming events in your childhood or adulthood, then you know what it's like to be constantly on guard just waiting for the next bad thing to happen. You get triggered easily into fight or flight responses, become overwhelmed with anxiety, and may shut down with feelings of shame and helplessness. These traumatic responses may feel like a life-sentence, but there is hope for healing. Somatic Experiencing is a powerful approach for resolving the body's instinctual survival responses, so you can live with a greater sense of balance, ease and resiliency.

I would be honored to offer you and/or your child/teen the gift of deep listening, respect, and support; to join with you in the beauty of nature alongside the strength and deep presence of animals.

Are you feeling ready to shift patterns, expand awareness, and release outgrown stories? Are you looking for deeper connection with yourself and in your relationships? Are you navigating illness, the end of a relationship, a career or similar major transition? These shifts can feel overwhelming to the parts of us that have been wounded in the past, even when our core self wants to choose growth. I support people with heart-centered listening and skillful practices for way-finding in times of destabilization and change.

In my practice I work with adults dealing with a variety of issues, including relationship issues, self esteem, depression, anxiety, loss/grief, work issues, trauma, PTSD, sexual abuse, family issues, issues with food/weight, addictions, and anger. We all face life and interpersonal challenges at times, and it can be very helpful to meet with someone who has comfort in dealing with a variety of life stressors. I welcome ALL who want to improve the quality of their life and/or relationships and are open to sharing their story.

As a certified Internal Family Systems therapist, I aim to cultivate a space with room to understand our own inherent truth and wisdom within. Through sessions that combine both holistic psychotherapy and counseling, I will support you in building a relationship with yourself that is rooted in love and nourishment. I believe that our lives, sexuality, and gender are all fluid, and aim to facilitate exploration and discovery without judgement. I utilize intuition, card pulling, and astrology within session.

As a dually licensed therapist I specialize in both mental health therapy as well as substance abuse and affected other counseling.
