Anxiety Therapists in Portland, ME

I am a warm and empathetic clinician who is passionate about combining the groundbreaking treatments of EMDR and Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP)! My goal is to use my specialized trainings to support you on your healing journey. I am based in Maine where I see clients In-Person and/or virtually. I, also, work with clients in New York and Massachusetts virtually. EMDR and KAP have adapted to the times and are just as effective virtually as they are in-person!

Because no two people are the same, I strive to provide treatment that fits each person’s unique needs and goals. I hope to foster a partnership with each individual that respects their own problem-solving style, while providing additional tools to address unmet needs. I believe that everyone has strengths and challenges. Our work together can fortify those strengths while mitigating challenges to reduce stress and suffering in daily life.

For the past 30+ years, my goal has been to help people of all ages feel listened to and understood, identify concerns with helpful solutions, and feel supported and valued. Anxiety, low self-esteem, change/transitions, school stress, relationships, family dynamics, parenting, and women's issues are strong practice areas for me, in addition to other areas of concern. I have an extensive work history with children, teenagers, college age, and parents, as well as adults of all ages. I provide a safe, non-judging, therapeutic interaction where you can feel accepted, comfortable, and free to truly be yourself.

My clients often seek relief from anxiety, depression, ADHD, substance misuse, grief, or struggles adapting to major life changes. The therapeutic space we create together becomes a safe—if not always comfortable—place to explore what's worked before, what you'd like to change, and what that change can look like or mean for you. Through the Counseling and Trauma Therapy Associates agency, I am honored to work with you, and learn about your personal journey and goals. I have experience with a wide range of clients including military veterans and first responders, creative professionals, students, and the LGBTQ+ community.

Have your old ways of handling stress stopped working? Do you feel you could use some dedicated time to strengthen, so that you can better handle life's challenges? If you feel that now is the time to seek help, please contact me at 207 241 4123. If you are in crisis, please call the Maine statewide crisis line at 1-888-568-1112. If you are experiencing an emergency, please call 911.

I work to earn your trust as we explore the experiences that led you to seek help. I can show you how to work through anxiety and depression to strengthen your sense of self. Life transitions, an immediate crisis, trauma and its long-standing effects, all can impact and distort our perceptions. I can help you understand the feelings and thoughts that drive your behaviors and change them to find more purpose in your work and relationships. PLEASE SEE MY WEBSITE: http://gmorazzinilcsw.com.

It's a joy, passion, and privilege doing this work. Over the past 20 years, I've practiced in school settings, community mental health, managed care, VA hospitals, university counseling centers, and private practice. My clinical interests are in fear, stress, depression, and suicide; creativity and the expressive arts; issues of intimacy and vulnerability in relationships; and issues of culture, identity, and liberation - especially regarding race, gender, sexuality, and spirituality. My specialized training (20 years) is in Buddhist psychology, trauma-informed creative art therapy, and exposure therapy for anxiety and trauma.

I am a clinical social worker licensed in both the state of CT and ME. I specialize in supporting professionals who are dealing with anxiety by facilitating a process of self-compassionate curiosity to increase awareness and insight around the origin of their anxiety and how it may be impacting them in their lives. I help clients identify and implement coping skills that work for them and their unique needs so that they may feel more connected with and confident in their authentic self.

I am a LCSW providing evidence-based, systems-oriented counseling. I have an excellent record assisting people in maintaining positive changes. As a therapist, I am more directive than passive in style, and quickly work to assess goals, and create an individualized treatment plan to address barriers. Treatment modalities include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) (including TF-CBT, ACT, and Cognitive Behavioral Play Therapy), MATCH, CollaborativePS, Solution-Focused Therapy, Parenting Support, Anxiety Treatment, Motivational Interviewing, Art and Narrative Therapy.

You may be reaching out to me during a challenging time, when familiar life systems are no longer working, or when the weight of anxiety and depression has become overwhelming. Alternatively, you may seek my support even in stable times, desiring a deeper connection with life. Together, we navigate these paths, cultivating stability, balance, and healing relationships. I specialize in helping clients decipher their unique inner dialogues, often resembling harsh critics, and collaboratively work towards minimizing their influence. This transformative process aims to craft a more fulfilling life and foster meaningful connections.

Are you experiencing frustration, feeling upset by an unsatisfying relationship? Do you feel overwhelmed by finances, divorce or stress? How will I handle all these pressures? Do you consider therapy but don't know where to start: how do I choose from the therapists I read about?. If you seek someone who will engage with you, understand that you are doing your best to make sense of the problems confronting you and wants to participate in creating strategies to resolve these problems, please call me to talk about how we might collaborate to create the life you desire.

Are you ready to ditch your anxiety? Sick of people pleasing? Do you experience flashbacks, struggle to identify and assert boundaries, and feel totally burnt out? Finding yourself in a seemingly never-ending cycle of fight or flight, and it feels impossible to be your authentic self? If this sounds like you, you're not alone. I work primarily with adults who live with anxiety, trauma, and neurodivergence- helping to guide my clients to a place of acceptance, empowerment, and self-confidence. In our work together, I will introduce new coping skills (you deserve relief!), help to define your goals, and walk the journey alongside you.

Right now, you may be feeling overwhelmed, stressed and unfulfilled. Maybe you're plagued by anxiety or weighed down by depression. Perhaps you’re struggling to start a family or are finding that being a parent is harder that you expected. Or you might feel stuck because the things and people you thought would or should make you happy just aren't. Change and growth are possible, and I would love to guide you on your journey.
