If you are feeling stuck, PTSD, overwhelmed, frustrated, confused or sad lets make the new become familiar in order to achieve what you want. I provide individual therapy with adults, parenting issues with children and couples counseling. My passion is inspiring women in transition, addressing depression, trauma, anxiety and substance abuse while focusing on empowerment and independence. I implement Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Informed Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, EMDR and Internal Family Systems. It doesn't take a lifetime to change your thinking or habits. New beginnings are possible!

I am passionate about working with couples to achieve a more intimate and satisfying relationship. In therapy, I work with each individual to identify issues that are interfering in achieving these and use a strengths-based approach to support clients to develop better ways of relating. I believe that the best way to get to the root of the issue is through being open and direct with clients.

Are you struggling with anxiety and disturbing emotions? Life's uncertainties can be challenging, leading to unhelpful stories we tell ourselves that make us feel out of control. I'm here to help you understand and manage your anxiety, guiding you towards a new narrative rooted in mindfulness, compassion, and cognitive behavioral techniques.

Are you feeling stuck? Overwhelmed? Do you struggle with depression, anxiety, panic, low self-esteem, or maybe substance use? Everyone gets stuck or overwhelmed at times and sometimes we need additional support.

I am glad you are here, and I’m here to help. You are making an important and often very difficult step in deciding to work towards a more balanced life.

As a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, Dr. of East-West Psychology, and Biodynamic Cranial Sacral Therapist, I offer clients an integrated approach to transforming mind-body conditions that result from chronic stress and trauma. Each Somatic Experiencing session is a journey towards wholeness, awakening your inherent health by restoring nervous system regulation. Since 2018, I have worked closely with Dr. Peter A. Levine and Somatic Experiencing International (SEI) as a Training Assistant and Retreat Director, developing an effective Somatic Experiencing-based retreat protocol for military veterans and the general public.

I provide telehealth services in New York (Headway.co) and in-person services in Maine (PenBayMusicTherapy.com). I've shared profound clinical experiences in many traditionally non-musical care contexts, including psychiatric, special education, rehabilitation, and complex medical settings. My clients navigate challenges related to depression, anxiety, self-esteem, regulation, trauma, grief or loss. I guide clients to explore and express experiences and feelings that are subconsciously defining the self. I aim to provide a warm, reliable, and open-minded presence that encourages clients to express what they have held onto tightly.

Trauma can be defined as our emotional and psychological response to a distressing event. It can be difficult to resolve traumatic memories when the event and emotional response validate a negative core belief we hold about ourselves. I am an EMDR trained therapist and I believe strongly in the efficacy of EMDR in resolving trauma and negative core beliefs. I also use existential philosophy to inform my practice, meaning I focus on self-awareness, relationships, personal power, free will, and self-determined choices.

When life gets crazy with it's ups and downs, and you want to talk to someone, I say, "Come see me at the barn"......At this practice, your counseling experience has the potential to be profound, unique, and different. I work out of my barn office, offer traditional in-office counseling and specialize in Equine Assisted Psychotherapy/Animal Assisted Therapy. I work with a variety of people of all ages and wide range of therapeutic concerns.

In the adult client, I especially enjoy witnessing one's ability to reject ineffective patterns of thinking in order to reach and sustain personal growth. Facing what we find to recognize either by internal or external forces that needs correction, is the first step in the process of effecting change. In adolescents, a shift to effect change can be a bit more challenging but no fault of theirs. Helping clients to navigate the life courses; expected and unexpected can be an exciting process to experience.

I believe we each have our own individual stories and unique experiences in which we face a number of challenges. In my practice I offer a space for those wishing to explore issues, develop skills, and heal past injuries. Incorporating a joy of movement and adventure, I believe health is holistic—combining physical, emotional, intellectual and spiritual well-being and balance. I love to surround myself with nature through hiking with my sweet dog Nala, skiing, and gardening. I practice yoga, am a Certified Reiki Master Teacher, and believe in the energy and light within us all.

Vincent Carrier MS, LCPC As a solution-focused therapist, my goal is to understand how the past, whether family, relationships, traumatic events become the obstacles that prevent you from achieving YOUR goals. My efforts are focused on helping you recognize and understand how the mind collects, stores and uses this historical information. We work together to reduce and/or remove past issues, those obstacles that prevent you from having a happier, more fulfilled life. We work to develop coping strategies such as mindfulness and others.

Counseling is a journey and in that I feel there most important factor is establishing a solid therapeutic alliance. In this we will work to develop options and opportunities to aid in your journey. In this I enjoy working with couples, teens and individuals in working to reduce anxiety, anger management issues with trauma, depression and inter personal and academic difficulties. Each day offers us a chance to grow and to enhance our confidence and interpersonal happiness. I also have specific training to support out military, veterans, first responders and their families who have their own unique challenges.

I use a holistic approach of mind, body and spirit to help in your healing. Do you want to decrease your anxiety, anger, or sadness? I hope to help support you with issues obstructing your life goals. We can work together using mindfulness, dialectical behavioral therapy and more to reduce anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and family conflict.

I am a psychologist who works with adults in individual and group psychotherapy.

Living with mental health issues restricts the quality of life. I work with individuals, couples, families, groups, adults, adolescents, and children to combat the effects of trauma, stressors, and factors that prevent them from living the life they want to lead. This is my mission.

As a clinical mental health professional, an Army Family Life Chaplain, VA therapist, and also a Christian ordained pastoral counselor (of 30+ years) I assist individuals in the community struggling with issues related to anxiety, depression, anger, grief, and trauma (PTSD).
