Therapists in Oxford County, ME

Bringing both passion and compassion to my work, I rely on my training in grounded and dynamic approaches to therapy. Whether working with couples or individuals, I draw on my strong intuitive sense and an innate belief in my clients’ ability to heal, change and grow. My training includes many approaches that support individuals and couples using attachment-based, body-oriented, brain-informed approaches to transforming old patterns.

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.

I specialize in addressing a wide range of relationship and emotion-related issues including depression, anxiety, grief, and particularly trauma (childhood, sexual, race-based, combat, and other). I have experience working with adults of all ages, including LGBTQ+ populations, clients from varied racial, ethnic, and cultural identities, as well as current and former military. I’m also engaged in advanced training in Emotionally Focused Couple Therapy as part of my residency at Psychology Specialists of Maine.

I am accepting new clients in both Pennsylvania & Maine for telehealth only. I am a Marriage & Family Therapist specializing in working with adolescents and teens experiencing issues around life stage transitions, self-esteem, and family conflict. I also enjoy working with individuals, couples, and families. I have extensive experience working with clients around acute issues such as suicidality, self-harm, and trauma. My therapeutic focus is to use a trauma-informed psychotherapy approach and relational techniques to increase self-worth, decrease depression & anxiety, and tease out couple and family conflict.

I believe in an integrative and holistic approach to help clients find balance in their daily lives. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma or other challenges in your life, it is possible to work through it with someone who can offer skillful support and guidance. The goal that people say they most want; is to feel better, or that they want things to be different. It is possible for healing to occur and to work on issues that are hard to deal with in the right space. Change is possible and attainable.

We all have had life experiences that shake us and I believe that having a supportive place and person to work through those thoughts and feelings is important. I offer you a genuine, empathetic environment, integrative and holistic in nature. With over 15 years of experience in social work and extensive trauma informed knowledge, I will bring a person-centered, evidence-based approach including CBT, TF-CBT, Problem Solving Therapy, Mindfulness, Stress Reduction and Solution-Focused Brief. I am currently offering Telehealth sessions and in-person coming soon to Lewiston, Maine.

NOW accepting NEW clients! Whether the result of traumatic events, family dynamics, life transitions, or the stress of being a human, anxiety presents itself for these and other reasons, and it can feel overwhelming. Not knowing what to do, how to address it, or why it shows up can make us feel like we’re adrift without a paddle. Often, we think that we’re broken or that we need fixing. The truth is that we’re not broken, and anxiety is showing up to tell us that something needs our attention. Finding the answers to these questions can be challenging, and this is where therapy can be helpful.

Life experience (and the thoughts and beliefs we hold), can control how we feel and directly impacts struggles such as grief, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and trauma. I combine psychotherapy with holistic counseling to help you see a bigger picture for your life, and to help you change emotional, physical, and psychological upsets that interrupt the life you prefer to live.

I’m Marley, A conditionally licensed clinical professional counselor in Orrington, Maine. I have experience working with clients of all ages who have come to me to work primarily through life's adjustments, PTSD, Anxiety and depression. Being human is messy, there isn't a handbook we are given with the secret answers to "doing it all right".

As a psychotherapist, I believe in human interactions as a powerful healing tool. I have been working as a therapist for 30 + years, having started my practice in Brazil, my country of origin, and practicing in the US since 2020. My work is based in Psychodynamic, Jungian Analytical Psychology, and I also provide trauma-informed care using EMDR as a therapeutic tool. My approach is mostly eclectic, meeting the client where they are at, and using evidence-based resources tailored to the client's needs. I see the human life as a journey, full of wonders and hardships, and I feel honored helping someone throughout their unique journey.

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). In addition to this I do marriage/couples therapy, pre-marital counseling, and spiritual/faith related counseling.

Openings available for Individuals. Welcome.

With many years experience in both traditional and mind/body approaches, I integrate Relational Attachment work, Buddhist psychology, Childhood Trauma healing groups and energy medicine practices . I believe that along with real pain and suffering, everyone has a potential healthy Self; often obscured or undeveloped. We can build, hold and nurture that together.

I offer a warm, caring, professional environment where we will honor your strengths, uncover areas of suffering, and discover new perspectives of your life story.
