Therapists Beginning With M in Vermont

If you are tired of feeling like you are stuck or out of control, I would be honored to have the opportunity to meet with you. You will learn to be in charge of your nervous system and feel more in control of your ability to deal with life situations. You are not alone in feeling this way; it is possible to experience freedom and healing. Serving Vermont residents only.

Is life in general getting to you more here lately? Whether it's stress, anxiety, or depression- life can feel overwhelming, but luckily, it doesn't have to stay that way. I'm Cassie, and I am a licensed professional counselor that specializes in working with people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and distress in relationships. I have extensive experience in helping through evidence based practices, but ultimately, my goal is to work with you to find what tools and experiences will be beneficial and healing for you.

Do you have an unpredictable work schedule that makes it frustrating to attend consistent therapy appointments? I have tailored my practice to accommodate individuals with shifting schedules and see many in the medical, veterinary, and service industries. I also have some evening availability . All appointments are via telehealth at this time, as I am not primarily located in Vermont.

Hi, I'm Marissa Manning, a Vermont clinician with a master’s degree in social work from the University of Southern California. I have worked in the medical field for 13 years, and as a medical social worker for 5 of those years. I have a passion for supporting people throughout the lifespan including new mothers/fathers as they navigate changes that come with parenthood, as well as the geriatric community navigating aging, and at times loss of independence. With this I also enjoy working with caregivers discussing burnout and changes in roles in the family system.

Life is full of emotions, sometimes its joy but sometimes its a sense of struggling and pain. Anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, and relationship/marital problems can all add to this sense of struggling. Especially, when we aren't well equipped to withstand it. Sometimes that struggle feels like this heavy cloud or mask we walk around with. Sometimes that struggle isolates us and causes us to become disconnected from ourselves or our loved ones. Playing tug of war with that struggle only makes it more draining.

I chose the name 'Voyagers' for this practice because I feel we are all on a journey together traveling, through time and space. I picture the metaphor of a ship navigating the open sea, riding the waves just as we do in our lives. Realistically, there will always be unavoidable waves in our lives- some larger than others- and sometimes we need a helping hand to voyage through safely in a way that embraces our unique individuality.

I believe a lack of self-love perpetuates a lack of care about the world, I believe our Inner World - how we experience healing and how we live in joy - is very important in the mission to make the world a better place. I am a coach in Conscious Human Evolution and guide you through various tools and techniques to re-Love yourself, re-Connect with joy and passion in life. I cannot heal you - but I will offer you tools and support and guidance as you are taking the steps to heal yourself.

I am here as a support for clients to unload whatever may be going on in their lives. Throughout our therapeutic relationship, we will develop and work towards goals that will essentially lead to living a happier, healthier life, whatever that may look like to each individual client. Feeling comfortable, calm, relaxed and at ease throughout the therapeutic process is very important in session with me as your therapist.

Maple Leaf Clinic, P.C. founded by Dr. Dean Mooney, provides a wide variety of services to the community including neuropsychological, educational, and psychological evaluations of children, adolescents and adults. Psychotherapy for people of all ages is also available. We also provide social skills development for all ages, cognitive rehabilitation for brain damage using the REHABIT program, professional development, and educational or clinical consultation (in person, by phone, or through FaceTime, Zoom, Doxy, Google Meet, or other telehealth options).

I have been working as a therapist for the past 10 years.  My goal is to work with people to help them process through their history including their hurts and their joyful moments, helping them to better understand the current circumstances present in their lives, and exploring goals for their future. I believe it is important to look at the whole person, including their underlying psychological processes, belief systems, relationships, values, and goals. I have watched people heal from past hurts and move forward engaging in the world with their whole selves. I work with trauma, depression, anxiety, bipolar, personality dx, etc.

“I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become.” - Carl Jung You’re here because you know that you deserve better. When we’ve experienced events in our lives that cause significant distress it can be hard to remember that we’re worth continuing to care for ourselves and asking for help. Our emotions can feel so big that they take over and we feel powerless in our own decisions. The fact that you’re here and reading this tells me you’re ready to try something different.

I see individuals, couples, and families. My goal is to provide clients a safe, supportive therapeutic relationship to talk, feel, heal, and change. Life challenges present us with opportunities for new chapters, new growth. Helping you reach your therapy goals is of utmost importance to me. You do not need to be controlled by the past, yet do you often use old behaviors in situations wanting a new response? Are you suffering from depression, anxieties, relationship problems, fears, self-doubts, or "irrational" worries? Together we will explore ways to help you live with more awareness, more freely, and with more energy for your present.

I've developed techniques based on my personality that help people change for the better as quickly, efficiently, and painlessly as possible. My ways of helping clients require me to understand how they think, compare it to the reality I see, and discuss the differences. After practicing as a clinical psychologist in rural Vermont for 36 years, I'm now a Solution-Focused Life Coach offering short term interventions to help solve minor or major feeling-related problems. I don't take notes. I don't bill insurance. To me confidentiality is a high priority.

I am most effective with people who want to do deep exploration and to grow spiritually and emotionally. We start with body awareness, developing skills to tolerate strong emotions and cultivate deeper connection with the resources that are inherent to us all. Using the Internal Family Systems model as the foundation, we will get to know parts of you who are burdened with painful emotions and beliefs and restore them to their natural state. We will increase your ability to live life from a calm, clear state.

My focus is in helping families, couples, teens, and adults to heal from the direct and indirect effects of trauma and build healthy lives and relationships. Trauma shows up in many ways, some obvious and some not realized to be trauma by the person or people going through it. It can have many effects, including fear, anxiety, depression, numbness, negative thoughts, anger, feeling out of control, feeling like it's your fault, not feeling normal, feeling a sense of needing to keep busy, panic, self-harm, self-medicating, relationship difficulties, family difficulties, shutting down, isolating, or being uncomfortable being alone.

You are an amazing person and it is important to show up for yourself! Counseling is a way for clients to work through past traumas, emotions and every day stressors with the goal of working towards becoming their true authentic selves. Life has its ups and downs and you never know what will influence and affect your wellbeing. Working collaboratively in therapy is a way of opening up to healing while in a safe and welcoming environment to explore how you perceive these internal and external personal experiences. I strive to help my clients empower themselves and grow towards their future goals.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, unsure of your path or how to heal your pain? I create a safe, supportive space for you to set aside "the noise of the world", to have time just for you, where your fears, struggles, and stressors can be heard with understanding and compassion. If you are experiencing anxiety, depression, loss of identity, life transitions, chronic fear, PTSD or trauma, relationship conflict, grief or loss of a beloved, triggers as a Highly Sensitive Person, or spiritual questioning, it is possible to heal: to have inner calm, clarity, peacefulness, self-compassion, authenticity, and empowerment.

I strive to provide an authentic space for individuals to explore their experiences and engage in meaningful whole-body wellness. Showing up for ourselves can be challenging especially during such difficult times. I utilize self-awareness and reflection to support folks in identifying core values, belief systems and biases. The therapeutic relationship is an essential part of my work with individuals. Understanding how oppression and cultural inequalities impact an individual’s well-being, is a valuable part of recovery. Our society is structured to support isolation and I believe in the healing power community.
