Each person is unique and seeks therapy to find solutions to their problems. Some request short term, solution focused treatment to resolve a life or relationship situation. Others are ready to work on longer term difficulties that repeat, causing ongoing dissatisfaction. You do not need to face the challenges of your life on your own.

I became a therapist because I believe that we are all longing for connection, and to be seen and valued. I believe that in the context of a trusting therapeutic relationship people can develop the skills they need to feel more at peace and to connect more deeply with others. In my practice I integrate mindfulness practices to help clients learn to better cope with stress, enhance their well-being, and improve overall balance and equanimity. I work with adults of all ages on a variety of issues. I have a particular passion for working with helping professionals and caregivers to support the unique needs of caring for others.

My approach is all about cultivating a strong and trusting therapeutic relationship between my patients and me. We will use the body and the emotions alongside your thoughts as a way to heal on a deep level. My background in Ayurveda helps me to see you through a holistic lens, taking your constitution into consideration. Established patients will also have the possibility of adding ketamine-assisted psychotherapy to their treatment. I especially love supporting people as they heal from trauma, particularly "treatment-resistant" PTSD. I work with individuals ages 16+.

Occasionally I have an openign or two, and when I do I post that on our local mid-coast Maine therapy providers bulletin board so that someone whose practice is full can give out my number. I am a state-licensed, nationally board-certified professional counselor with 33 years of experience. As a psychotherapist, my focus is holistic; treating the whole person and focusing on clients' gifts and skills, not just the so-called presenting problem. I believe all of us have answers within and need an objective, caring professional to help us discern what those answers are.

I work with adults navigating depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress, relationship difficulties, and major life transitions.

My role is to help clients better understand these patterns so they can make meaningful and lasting changes.

Do you feel like a color wheel trying to exist in a black and white world? Feeling stuck despite trying to move forward day after day? I believe when you have space to explore the many parts that make up your whole, there is an expansiveness which can sometimes feel like re-planting to a new pot – one with room to grow. I believe in the beauty of gray areas and fluidity. We are relational beings and I believe our greatest transformations take place in relationships: friendships, family, chosen family, romantically and more. I also recognize that relationships can be pain points, so I seek to offer space for unpacking and healing.

Women's Issues Therapists
How do you encourage a woman to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual may be suffering, and what effects it has on them, should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
How can women prepare for therapy?
Women can prepare for therapy by being willing to talk about their past experiences and their private thoughts. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. Between sessions, it can be useful to write down notes about their reaction to a given event or how they felt at a particular time.
How long does therapy for women’s issues often last?
As with any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual and the challenges they face. Therapy types like Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Prolonged exposure therapy (PET), and Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. In some cases, such as for women with eating disorders, residential treatment may be recommended for an individual who is judged to be at high risk of self-harm. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.
How can women overcome stigma around specific challenges in order to seek therapy?
Women dealing with domestic abuse, sexual assault, eating disorders, and any other number of troubles may feel a stigma around seeking help. It’s important to remember that these issues are not uncommon and there is no shame in getting help for them. Therapy is confidential, and women can talk about their experiences without fear of judgment. Seeking therapy can be a courageous and liberating act, and an important step toward healing and recovery.
