You can expect a supportive and comfortable atmosphere in which to heal and grow when you and/or your partner, or your child or teen meet with me for therapy. Therapy is a way to try out new ideas and get to know yourself better. I offer encouragement, feedback, and a fresh perspective as we work together to help you live a happier, more satisfying life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Play therapy, Solution-Focused, Interpersonal, supportive, Positive Psychology, and Couples therapy are the approaches I primarily use to guide you to a better future.
Life throws us curveballs all the time; I believe you can overcome these and I would love to help you do this. Feel not only less sad or anxious, but better. Function better, learn skills, gain understanding, and build positive experiences through well researched techniques, such as CBT.
In addition to therapy and counseling, I love the outdoors and am excited to offer the option of meeting in person outside for therapy in the Portland and Scarborough areas, with telehealth as a backup when the weather does not cooperate. Please ask me about therapy outdoors and check out my website for more information!
