Solution Focused Brief (SFBT) Therapists in Gardiner, ME

As a therapist, I endeavor to meet clients in the threshold moments of their lives - the in between of what was and what is to come. I have a particular interest in life span development and believe that we are all capable of growth and learning at every stage of life. I come to this work as a full-spectrum doula and hospice social worker. The combination of those roles gives me particular appreciation for how birth and death, light and dark, good and bad, old and young are often very entangled and caught up in each other. I'm here to hold the space of this tension in your life and help you walk through it to the other side.
