Welcome. You’ve come to the right place. Entering recovery from addiction can feel like you've landed on a strange new planet. It's normal to feel alone, confused and vulnerable, not having a clue where to start. Forging your unique path to wellness is the journey that lies ahead. You have the ability to heal yourself, but you are not meant to do it alone. As a professional counselor with lived experience in long-term recovery, I can help to guide you forward.

My practice is focused on helping couples improve the quality of their relationships. Having healthy and secure relationships keep us physically and emotionally happier and healthier. When we feel disconnected, our body, mind and soul inevitably suffer. We all experience adversity and heartbreak; the trick is finding meaningful connection in the midst of challenges. The science of attachment provides an exciting roadmap to heal relationship distress. Learning how to seek and receive emotional comfort and connection creates resilience, protection, energy and is the antidote to the feelings of loneliness and helplessness.

As a dually licensed therapist I specialize in both mental health therapy as well as substance abuse and affected other counseling. Although I am able to provide either form of treatment alone, it is often appropriate to combine the two as a treatment for those experiencing difficulties due to the co-occurrence of symptoms, whether they have the substance abuse issue themselves or are affected by a loved one's substance abuse.

You might sense there’s a calmer, more confident, and authentic version of you that hasn’t had the chance to shine yet. Maybe life has thrown you challenges that feel too heavy to carry or too confusing to sort through alone. You may feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to move forward — yet the hope for something better is still there. If this feels familiar, you’re not alone. I’m here to walk with you as we gently explore what’s getting in the way and help you reconnect with the life you want to live.

Do you secretly desire to be enlivened and peaceful, while feeling like the world is on fire and spinning out of control? Does it feel like your moral obligation to be miserable and living in joy would be rude and naive?
Are you looking for a safe, nurturing environment with a highly skilled practitioner? Especially an authentic person who believes that the process can and should include laughter? Clients are often pleasantly surprised with the wide array of tools and experience I draw on, including guided visualizations, which are created based on your needs and are emailed to you, to access at any time.

Hello! My name is Zack and I work with couples and individuals who are in need of support. Couples I work with may be having a difficult time communicating, feeling loved or understood, feeling lonely, dealing with infidelity, or managing intense conflict. I also see individuals experiencing symptoms of depression, anxiety, panic attacks, numbness, difficulty sleeping, childhood wounds, grief, self-harm, thoughts of suicide, and PTSD. My clients feel stuck, trapped, or weighed down and are looking for relief from the conflict they face. Ultimately, they are in need of a happier and more fullfilling life experience.

Clients seek me out for therapy that feels genuine and hopeful, where you're seen as a whole person, not someone only defined by your struggles. Sessions feel like meaningful conversations with a trusted colleague. I offer short-term work to process recent difficulties, and longer-term therapy to explore deeper patterns. With specialized EMDR training, I help clients heal from trauma. I also treat OCD using Inference-Based CBT and work with specific phobias, including emetophobia. Whether addressing something recent or diving deeper, I'm here with compassion and expertise.

Are you struggling and ready for a change? Loads of information coming at our nervous systems on a regular basis often leave us feeling overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, angry and hopeless. When our brains and bodies are out of whack, they signal us that we need help by making it hard to ignore. We have aches, pains, and defenses that prevent us from thriving. Together, we will explore your lived experience to find what has made meaning for you, and what you feel needs shifting. You may have trauma, relationship challenges, low self worth, or mounting stress. Or you may be seeking support for your child's moods, behaviors, or both.

Hi there, I’m glad you’re here. I specialize in using EMDR (Eye-Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to help you heal from past trauma and build the life you want to live today. I work with people who have experienced events - both big and small- that continue to produce anxiety, guilt, shame, anger, or stress. EMDR is a structured therapy aimed at reducing the disturbance of trauma memories and alleviating current symptoms. I've seen EMDR support clients in building strong relationships, reducing reactivity, and increasing their sense of peace.
I’m an EMDR Certified Therapist through EMDRIA.

I came to the world of therapy the long way, following two decades of outdoor leadership, adventure group work, mountain guiding, and experiential education. I find many connections between my work as an outdoor leader and my work as a therapist. I believe the same principles used by leaders to help folks achieve their goals in the backcountry can apply to our everyday lives. I feel I can be most helpful to those who accept being challenged and are working towards goals.

Life can be so difficult at times. With so much going on in the world around and often within us it’s all too easy to lose your balance, feel lost and isolated.

As a professional with over 20 years of practice treating trauma and other mental health conditions, I can provide the guidance and support to help you make the changes you need to move beyond this challenging period of your life, toward something that feels more authentic and true for you.

As a human development specialist, in response to pain or suffering due to emotional stress, conflict, or confusion, my support facilitates positive change, far beyond the limitations of shame, blame, guilt, fear, or helplessness. And, because I recognize that difficulties are roads to growth and not impediments to growth, my focus is sharp and reliable, on helping clients to simply and proudly learn what and how to change; based on skilled assistance, for achieving successful outcomes.

You might be feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck—like your thoughts just won’t slow down. Or a loss of motivation has slowed things down too much. Maybe a recent change has left you unsteady, or you feel disconnected from yourself or others. These feelings can weigh you down, leaving you unsure how to move forward. You want a space to pause, breathe deeply, and let things settle. Through conversation and, when you choose, creative expression, we can uncover meaning, reconnect with your strengths, and help you feel more grounded, hopeful, and ready for next steps.

I currently offer individual therapy to clients in both Maine and Wisconsin. Many clients I work with carry day to day stress and anxiety that is rooted in trauma. We tend to think of trauma as one big moment, but it can also be a culmination of moments leading to a negative narrative of the self and a shift in the way we see and interact in the world. My goal is to teach new skills that will help promote control over ones thoughts, feelings and behaviors that can improve health and happiness across multiple settings- emotionally, psychosomatically, in families or relationships and other areas of life.
